Squid Game Season 3 Trailer and Stills Released

The highly anticipated Season 3 of Squid Game (오징어 게임) has just released its main trailer along with 15 new stills, ramping up excitement among fans. This season follows Gi-hun (이정재), who returns to the deadly games with a personal agenda, only to lose his closest friend. The narrative also delves into the enigmatic Frontman (이병헌), who has infiltrated the games under a hidden identity, and the fates of the surviving participants amidst the brutal competition.

The trailer opens with a chilling rendition of a familiar children's song, leading to a scene where the character Young-hee reappears, towering over terrified contestants. This striking introduction sets the tone for how the whimsical elements of childhood can transform into a terrifying survival game, a hallmark of Squid Game.

Gi-hun's emotional turmoil is palpable as he returns, questioning, "Why didn’t you kill me? Why was I spared?" This moment reflects his deep guilt after losing his friend Jung-bae (이서환) during a failed rebellion.

The tension escalates as the Frontman observes Gi-hun, raising questions about how he will influence the game’s outcome. New settings, such as a starry alley and a jump rope game, promise to surprise both participants and viewers with their creativity. The intense rivalry among contestants in extreme situations hints at unpredictable developments ahead.

Desperate pleas from participants like Geum-ja (강애심), who cries for the games to end, and Myung-ki (임시완), who confronts Jun-hee (조유리) with urgency, showcase the dire circumstances they face. Gi-hun, once again donning the number 456 and dressed in a suit, encounters the Frontman, who finally reveals his identity and questions Gi-hun’s faith in humanity.

The newly released stills capture the ongoing struggle for survival among contestants. Gi-hun is seen sharply gazing at someone, raising curiosity about his potential to dismantle the game. The Frontman, now in a suit with the number 132, hints at a new storyline. Other stills feature surviving contestants like Myung-ki, Dae-ho (강하늘), Hyun-joo (박성훈), Yong-sik (양동근), Geum-ja, Jun-hee, and Nam-kyu (노재원), each expressing a range of emotions in various scenarios.

Particularly intriguing is Kyung-seok (이진욱), clutching his stomach while facing a Pink Guard, which amplifies curiosity about his fate after being shot during a rebellion. Jun-ho (위하준) is seen examining a game invitation marked with shapes, raising questions about whether he will uncover crucial clues about Squid Game. Noh-eul (박규영), discarding her Pink Guard mask while aiming a gun, suggests she too will face unforeseen events. Finally, the imposing presence of Young-hee alongside a Pink Guard at the game’s entrance heightens anticipation for the new and more intense challenges that lie ahead.

The new season will be available exclusively on Netflix starting June 27.
