The big hit South Korean show Squid Game was the most popular show on Netflix, and now fans are thrilled and excited to see that season two is on the way.
As season 2 is making its way to being completed, fans are raising many questions about it. They are curious about what’s to come in the upcoming season. So many things have happened in season one that left so many questions unanswered for many fans. They hope to see some of their questions answered in the new season.
Season one ended with a cliffhanger where Gi Hun returned to the game. What will happen to the main protagonist of the show, Gi-hun? Is he returning to stop or play the game?
Here are questions that people hope will be answered in the second season.
Who are the Staff Workers in Red and Their Purpose in Working there?
There were many staff workers in the show with different shapes – triangles, squares, and circles, but no one knew their identities or their purpose in working there. It is understandable to wear masks to protect their anonymity and avoid consequences since Squid Game is illegal.
They barely talked or answered any of the players’ questions. All they do is follow the instructions that they were given.
In the second season, fans hope to see some of these workers’ faces and why they choose to work there. Was it because they couldn’t find a job? Was the world mistreating them? Is joining the organization all worth it? Did they ever play the game?
Hopefully, fans get to see some history about the game and its workers.
What Happened to the Previous Winners?
The police officer, Hwang Jun-ho, followed the staff workers all the way to an unknown island to look for his brother. He even risks his safety by sneaking in as a guard. The audience saw him going through the storage room to find information on the game and its history.
Every year, there was always a winner. He came upon many books with previous winners. Fans are curious about what happened to all these winners and what they are currently doing.
Where are they now? Did they pay off their debt with the money or invest their money? Did they come back to play to earn more money? No one knows anything about these previous winners, and fans hope to find these answers in the upcoming season.
Who are the VIP Guests that were Wearing the Animal Masks?
When the game was near the end, we saw VIP guests come to the island to watch the game. They were wearing animal masks and betting on players. They seem to know the procedure of everything on the island. Fans do not see the VIP guests’ connection to the organization or their true identity.
They only come when the game is close towards the end.
Who are these people, and what role do they play in the game? Do they sponsor the game? Will their background be discussed in the new season?
Will Families be Looking for Their Missing Relatives?
When Hwang Jun-ho hadn’t heard from his brother, he decided to go to his brother’s place to find clues about his whereabouts. He found a card that led him to the island, where he infiltrated the organization to search for his brother. Seeing how concerned he was about his brother, does any other family know their loved ones are missing?
By watching the series, most of the contestants had debt, no money, gambling problems, or abuse issues, which we can learn money lessons from them. A lot of them indeed had family members. Fans are wondering if families are worried about their loved ones. If they are, why aren’t they searching for them or asking around town? Their loved ones have been missing for days!
Fans even saw Gi-hun, the main character, was laughed at by the police when he told them about the organization and its danger. However, there were over 400 players, so there should have been a search party for these missing people, right?
Will family members start searching for them in the second season? What would happen if they found out that they were killed while playing the game?
How and Why did In-ho Become the Front Man?
The audience saw that the Front Man was in charge of running the game.
During Jun-ho’s infiltration, fans found out that his brother was the winner of the game in 2015, which means that he left with a lot of money some years ago.
During the chase scene in episode 8, it was revealed that the Front Man was the police’s brother, In-ho. What a major twist that was! This happened before he killed his own brother.
In-ho has been running the game for a long time, and fans are dying to know how and why he became the Front Man. When Hwang Jun-ho died, the investigation left major unanswered questions to many fans.
Why did he kill his brother? When did he become the Front Man? After winning the game, did he have a hard time readjusting to everyday life like Gi-hun? Why didn’t he tell his brother about his whereabouts?
Fans are raising numerous questions about In-ho’s backstory, and it is possible that Squid Game can answer that in the second season.
Will Gi-hun End Squid Game?
Theories and speculations are being made about Gi-hun’s actions in the second season.
Many fans have theories that Gi-hun will become the Front Man and end the entire organization. Seeing how lifeless his life was after playing the game and winning all the money, fans can tell he would eventually do something about the organization.
At the end of the first season, Gi-hun was last seen at the airport to visit his daughter, but he decided to ditch his flight and return to the game.
Seeing Gi-hun’s determination showed he would do anything in his power to prevent the next Squid Game from happening.
Did Jun-ho Evidence Ever Reach Anyone?
Before Jun-ho died by his brother, he sent evidence through his phone. However, the audience doesn’t know if the messages he sent went through or not. All we know is that he called someone and sent messages on the deserted island, but the service was terrible that he couldn’t explain everything.
Hopefully, someone received his messages. It would be great to see some actions from other police officers!
Is Il-Nam Gi-hun’s father?
There have been many speculations that the older man, Il-Nam, is his father. Gi-hun keeps protecting and saving him throughout the game, showing so much affection towards him. They have a great relationship with one, which feels like they were father and son. Gi-hun is always watching out for him even before the game starts.
Will season two discuss the background of Il-Nam? Will Gi-hun find out if that’s his father or not?
How will Squid Game continue if the mastermind died already?
After Gi-hun became the winner of Squid, he eventually found out that the mastermind behind Squid Game was no other than Il-Nam. Fans were shocked to see that the older man was behind everything. Not only was he a player, but the creator of the game. What an unexpected event!
After he died, everyone was curious how the game would continue. Is there a second mastermind behind the game? Is the Front Man going to be the next leader?
Summary
There are so many questions and excitement from fans about season two. Everyone is anticipating this upcoming season, and it might be a bigger hit than the first season. No one knows when season 2 will be out, but fans are hoping it will come out this year. What are your thoughts on season two?
