When "Squid Game" was released in 2021, it took the world by storm and ended up becoming one of the best shows to binge on Netflix. It was only a matter of time before Season 2 was confirmed. After three years, the long wait is over, but only the first half of the infamous deadly playground games were shown this time around – and the creator of the series explains why he decided to split it up into the third (and final) season.
For those who need a refresher, the first season of "Squid Game" showed the full six games (not including the recruiting game) that Gi-hun had to participate in to win the entire prize pool of money, but Season 2 only featured three throughout its seven episodes. When I had the chance to speak to creator Hwang Dong-hyuk about why he decided to end it in the middle rather than continue the games like he did last season, his answer actually made total sense.
