When the second season of director, writer & executive producer Hwang Dong-hyuk's Squid Game hits Netflix screens on December 26th, it will have been three years since "Player 456" won the game – yet he remains determined to find the people behind it and put an end to their vicious sport. Using this fortune to fund his search, Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) starts with the most obvious of places: look for the man in a sharp suit playing ddakji in the subway. But when his efforts finally yield results, the path toward taking down the organization proves to be deadlier than he imagined: to end the game, he needs to re-enter it. With the series returning before the end of the year (and wrapping up in 2025 with a third and final season), Netflix thought that timing the release of a new teaser with the Paris 2024 Olympics Closing Ceremony would work -and it did.
