'Squid Game' creator reflects on Player 456 future steps

Seong Gi-hun, the lead character in Squid Game, played by Lee Jung-jae, faced an unimaginable situation at the end of season two.

According to Hwang Dong-hyuk, the maker of the hit show, said that Player 456 will not be the same in the future as he was in season two.  

"As for the storyline of the third season, Gi-hun having lost everything, including his best friend, and all of his attempts going to failure, it's now, what is he going to be like? What state is Gi-hun going to be in? And what will he choose to do?, he told Variety.

"Will he continue on with the mission? Is he going to give up or persist? And so you're going to meet our character Gi-hun at a very critical crossroads as we begin the third season. Gi-hun will not be the man he was in season 2," the creator added.

Pressed to share more about Seong's character's arc in season three, Hwang pointed to the mid-credit scene where two robot dolls appeared.

"If you watch that clip, it's going to give you a slight hint as to where season 3 might take you. I think that's all I can say, for now," he concluded.
