"Squid Game" is described on IMDb as a show in which "hundreds of cash-strapped players accept a strange invitation to compete in children's games. Inside, a tempting prize awaits with deadly high stakes: a survival game that has a whopping 45.6 billion-won prize at stake."

Squid Games season two spent less than two weeks at number one on Netflix, despite hopes that it would dominate for much longer

The games for Gi-hun will end with the forthcoming third season, but Hwang Dong-hyuk has shared his thoughts with THR on how the series could expand into a franchise.
