Squid Game’s future on Netflix repeats the same strategy that almost doomed Sweet Home, one of the platforms’ most popular K-dramas. While Squid Game is Netflix’s biggest show of all time and can only be described as a pop culture phenomenon, it was neither the first nor the last successful Korean series to arrive on the platform. The list of best K-dramas on Netflix includes both broadcast shows and webseries, with the streamer releasing more and more original Korean titles every year. Squid Game season 2 has been confirmed for a while, but now we know the story won’t end there.

Squid Game season 1’s ending was self-contained for the most part but ended on a massive cliffhanger. While Gi-hum eventually came to terms with his victory and began to use the money he won, he reconsidered his purpose after running into the Salesman at the airport. Player 456 is now on a mission against the Front Man and everyone else involved in the games to take down their operation, but according to the first official synopsis for season 2, he will have to re-enter the games to do so. Squid Game’s next chapter is exciting, but its long-term plan is risky.

Thank You So Much For Watching!
