Creator Hwang crafted Squid Game as a three-season story. Gi-hun’s fate has actually already been written — Hwang wrote seasons two and three back to back, and the seasons filmed back to back.

Lee stars in Season 2 of “Squid Game” alongside returning cast member Wi Ha-jun as Jun-ho and Lee Byung-hun as the mysterious Front Man, alongside a slew of new stars. Hwang Dong-hyuk is the creator of the series and serves as director and executive producer, with Kim Ji-yeon also serving as an EP.
