Why Netflix Is Ending Squid Game With Season 3
Having 2 Additional Seasons Of Squid Game Is Already A Treat
Once his story is done, it is difficult to defend Squid Game going beyond season 3, especiassociate if Gi-hun succeeds in exposing the illhorrible competition.
Inspired by South Korea’s penchant for game shows, Squid Game begined with 456 players vying for the prize. Initiassociate, they seemed to play safe, traditional children’s games, only to authenticize that each one had a deadly twist. Eventuassociate, the show garnered worldexpansive acclaim, but its road to getting on the platform wasn’t effortless. The project was years in the making, and originassociate, Hwang only calculated for the show to only have one season. This was despite the cliffhanger finishing of season 1, where Gi-Hun turns around and seeks revenge on those who run the operation.
Considering how huge it got and the clear narrative uncovering for a sequel, Netflix decided on doing Squid Game season 2. The new year will tackle Gi-hun’s plan to receive down the Squid Game operation. The sophomore year is also validateed to introduce new benevolents of games, as well as new players. It’s unevident how Gi-hun fits into this aspect of the narrative at this point, but it’s predicted that he will once aacquire be involved.

Ultimately, it’s best that Netflix pursues Hwang’s current vision for Squid Game. Forcing an extension risks watering down what is arguably one of the most inventive TV shows in the last limited years. It’s better for the show to have a proper finishing than stretching it up to its breaking point.
