Netflix has released a trailer for the third and final season of “Squid Game.”
Season 3 will see Gi-hun aka Player 456 (Lee Jung-jae) continue fighting to end the game after the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) killed his best friend, Jung-bae (Lee Seo-hwan), at the end of Season 2.
In the trailer, Gi-hun is seen finally learning the devastating truth behind the Front Man’s identity, which the audience already knows: It’s In-ho, who pretended to be a Squid Game competitor and Gi-hun’s friend in Season 2. Gi-hun begins the trailer frantically demanding a group of guards, “Why didn’t you kill me? Why did you keep me alive? Why did you let me live?” The guards wrestle him to the ground and In-ho watches.
“Squid Game” debuted on Netflix in September 2021 and quickly became a smash hit. Season 1 is the streamer’s No. 2 most-watched TV season of all time, and Season 2 became the third-most-watched after its December 2024 premiere. The only Netflix title that has seen more viewers is Season 1 of “Wednesday.”
The Korean drama was created by Hwang Dong-hyuk, who also writes, directs and produces. Alongside Lee Jung-jae and Lee Byung-hun, the cast includes Yim Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Wi Ha-jun, Park Gyu-young, Park Sung-hoon, Yang Dong-geun, Kang Ae-sim, Jo Yuri, Lee David and Roh Jae-won.
The trailer was revealed at Tudum, Netflix’s annual fan event, in Los Angeles on Saturday, where Lee Jung-jae, Lee Byung-hun, Park Sung-hoon, Kang Ae-sim and Choi Seung-hyun aka T.O.P appeared in person.
