‘Squid Game’ season 2 teaser: ‘Would you like to play a game with me?’

“Squid Game” doesn’t return for its long-awaited second season until December 26, but on September 30 the series released a new teaser highlighting Gong Yoo‘s character who recruits unsuspecting players to the deadly game. We watch him get ready in the morning. Then he gets off the train, checks his watch, and holds up those red and blue cards, asking directly to the camera, “Sir. Would you like to play a game with me?” Watch the sinister teaser above.

Gong Yoo is indeed back for the new season of the series. Lee Jung-jae is also returning to his lead role as Seong Gi-hun. Lee Byung-hun is back as the overseer of the game, and Wi Ha-jun reprises his role as police officer Hwang Jun-ho. New cast members include Yim Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Park Gyu-young, Lee Jin-uk, Park Sung-hoon, Yang Dong-geun, Kang Ae-sim, Lee David, Choi Seung-hyun, Roh Jae-won, Jo Yu-ri, and Won Ji-an.

Season one of “Squid Game” was a worldwide phenomenon when it premiered on Netflix in 2021. It also became a groundbreaking hit at the Emmys, earning 14 nominations including Best Drama Series and winning six prizes: Best Drama Actor for Lee Jung-jae, Best Drama Guest Actress for Lee You-mi, Best Drama Directing for series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk, and below-the-line awards for production design, stunt performance, and visual effects. Those were revolutionary victories for a series entirely in a language besides English.

But that’s not all. Lee, Jung Ho-yeon, and the show’s stunt ensemble won SAG Awards. Lee also won Critics Choice and Independent Spirit Awards, Oh Yeong-su claimed a Golden Globe, and the show claimed a Gotham Award for Breakthrough Series (Longform). So expectations are especially high for the return of the show to live up to the pop cultural impact it had three years ago. Either way, it’s almost time to play.
