Netflix announces second season of ‘Squid Game’
Netflix has announced that the South Korean survival drama series Squid Game will return with Season 2. The Squid Game director teased some details about the show’s second season in a letter released by Netflix. The squid game became Netflix’s most-watched series when it was released in September 2021. The show tells the story of cash-strapped contestants who play childhood games to earn a huge cash prize.
The director said, “It took 12 years to bring the first season of Squid Game to life last year but it only took 12 days for the show to become the most popular series of all time.” Netflix did not specify a release date for the new season.

Hwang announced last year that he would return for Season 2 of the show. “There’s been so much love, demand, and attention for a season 2,” he said. “So, I feel I have no choice but to make a season 2.” Season 1 of Squid Game was released globally on September 17, 2021, and it quickly became Netflix’s most-watched series, with 1.65 billion hours of streaming in the first 28 days alone in the United States.
The series increased global interest in Korean content, encouraging global players such as Walt Disney Co., Apple Inc., and Warner Media to invest in local-language titles and original shows to attract customers. Meanwhile, Netflix shares have surged, with the online streaming company returning to its global hit (Squid Game) to recover from an unexpected drop in subscribers.
