Those who love Netflix’s beguiling Korean series “Squid Game” will be getting a belated Christmas present later this year, before it all comes to an end in 2025. On Wednesday, Netflix announced that its Emmy-winning drama “Squid Game” will finally return with Season 2 on December 26. The streamer also shared that a third and final season is also planned, which will premiere sometime next year. Set in Seoul, the dystopian series – which became the biggest show in Netflix’s history – saw hundreds of contestants in desperate need of money play deadly children’s games to win a major cash prize. Hwang Dong-hyuk – who wrote, directed and executive produced the series – said in a letter included with the announcement from Netflix that on the first day of production on Season 2, it “almost felt surreal” being back in the world of “Squid Game,” which debuted in 2021. “I wonder how it will feel for you to be back in Squid Game after three years, as well,” he wrote.
