Squid Game 2: 'squeezing' Song Hye Kyo dry of tears, revealing shocking achievements!

Netflix's Squid Game 2, although it won't be released until December 26, has been a sensation on social media and in Korean media since early December, and has recently set an unprecedented record in the history of Korean dramas.

Specifically, in the second week of December, the film ranked No. 1 in the TV-OTT Drama Trending Survey Ranking announced by Good Data Corporation. This is the first time a Korean series has taken the No. 1 spot on the Trending Ranking even though it has 2 weeks left to air. Previously, Song Hye Kyo's The Glory 2 also created a big buzz but only ranked No. 5 on the Ranking before 2 weeks of airing. The Glory 2's trending score at that time was only 15,000 while currently, Squid Game's trending score has reached 20,000, showing the explosion of the work.

PD Won Soon Woo of Good Data predicted, "The news score in the first week of Squid Game 2 is expected to break the record for the highest opening ever. And it is very likely that the cast of Squid Game 2 will also dominate the news score ranking of actors."

With this outstanding achievement, Squid Game 2 is currently leading a series of famous TV series such as Mrs. Ok, When the Phone Rings, Love Your Enemy, Light Shop, The Trunk, Parole Examiner Lee.

Squid Game was a famous survival movie released in 2021. Although it caused a lot of controversy about the script, it is undeniable that this work has a strong global influence. Currently, season 2 of the movie is an extremely hot topic, especially when it has a huge cast with both familiar faces from season 1 and a series of famous superstars appearing in season 2.

In season 2, Seong Gi Hun ( Lee Jung Jae), also known as Player 456, returns to the survival game after winning the finale of season 1. Now with knowledge of the game, Gi Hun will try to save the lives of other players and try to end the game once and for all. But those good intentions may collapse in the face of the million won prize.

However, in contrast to the drama's popularity, creator Hwang Dong Hyuk is less enthusiastic. Although season 3 is scheduled to be released in 2025, Hwang revealed in a new interview that he felt "overwhelmed" and "fed up" with the iconic project.

Minyoung Kim, Netflix's head of content for Asia-Pacific, admitted that Hwang was under a lot of pressure from the huge success of Squid Game. However, she also reassured him that Netflix was committed to supporting him better in the next two seasons, after Hwang revealed that he lost several teeth due to stress while filming the first season.

In a conversation with Variety, Hwang shared that he is counting down the days until he can say goodbye to this project and enter a long vacation after completing post-production on season 3. When asked about his next plans, Hwang honestly said that he has not thought of any new projects.

His only wish right now is to escape to a remote island (not the one in Squid Game, of course) to enjoy his days of freedom, undisturbed by calls from Netflix.

"I'm tired of a life that revolves around creating and promoting films. Right now, I'm not thinking about my next project, I'm just dreaming of escaping to a peaceful island, living free days, no phone, no Netflix" - Hwang Dong Hyuk admitted.
