'Squid Game' returns with a darker plot, and efforts by producers to prevent spoilers
덩치 커진 '오징어 게임2' "배우들도 결말 몰라"
The world-famous Netflix series 'Squid Game' is returning next month for season 2, with a more extravagant set and a new game.
The production team said that in an effort to prevent any spoilers, the ending was only known to a few actors.
Lee Eun-jin has the story.
'Squid Game' achieved phenomenal success with its first season in 2021, and is now returning with its second season for the global audience.
If season 1 focused more on the participants taking part in the 'Squid Game' for a huge amount of money,
Season 2 focuses on the return of the main character Seong Gi-hun and his revenge journey to find the game's host.
"When I first looked at the scenario it was even more exciting than season 1.
How can such a scenario be written !"
For the second round of gambling life for money, new faces join to make up a star-studded cast, including actors Yang Dong-geun and Park Sung-hoon.
"I killed off all the popular characters of Season 1 so there are new characters. And they are starting a new game.
That's the biggest difference from Season 1."
And with immense interest during the filming of season 2, special attention was paid to ensuring no content was leaked.
The script was delivered in an online format that could not be printed or easily shared.
"Even the actors didn't know who dies when Only very few of the actors knew the end of the script."
Regarding the controversy surrounding the casting of former Big Bang member T.O.P, who served time in jail for illegal drug use, the director explained that it was indeed a difficult decision, but it was his judgment call that T.O.P was the right fit for the character he plays.
"Why this character needed to be played by this actor
the only way to show it is through the final production."
The much-anticipated season 2 of 'Squid Game' will be released on December 26th
with a third season, scheduled for release in 2025, to conclude the series.
Lee Eunjin, Arirang News.
It will feel like an extended holiday, with the series coming out the day after Christmas.
Bit by bit, they are revealing scenes of the new series, the set in fact already made news when part of it was revealed a year ago.
It's a good strategy, making fans eagerly await the second series.
Watching the interviews makes me even more curious.
I like the fact that the producers are on extra high alert to avoid any leakages of the plot.
Preventing spoilers is a growing challenge ever since we entered the era of streaming platforms.
Right, because not everyone watches newly released series simultaneously.
But with Squid Game 2, I can imagine fans all over the world stuck to screen almost at the same time.
