What will the plot of Squid Game season 2 be?
Here’s the official synopsis for the second season of the show:
Three years after winning Squid Game, Player 456 remains determined to find the people behind the game and put an end to their vicious sport. Using his fortune to fund his search, Gi-hun begins by looking for the man in a sharp suit playing ddakji in the subway. But uncovering the truth proves to be more dangerous than he imagined: to stop the game, he must re-enter it.
Season 1 concluded with Seong Gi-hun deciding to re-enter the game after encountering the recruiter once again.
