Squid Game 3 sucks 12M views to push the hot series to the edge, number 456 is the last boss?

On June 1, Netflix announced a series of trailers for global blockbuster projects during the TUDUM 2025 event. In particular, the trailer of Squid Game 3 became the hottest topic, far from the influence of the European and American blockbuster series.

The trailer has attracted more than 12.46 million views on Netflix's YouTube channel after just one day of posting. Compared to the clips introducing Stranger Things 5 (7.6 million), Wednesday 2 (3.5 million) (also released on June 1), the influence of Squid Game 3 is really too respectable. Not only far from movies releasing trailers on the same day, but this number also helped Squid Game 3 break the record of the giant Netflix, becoming the movie with the highest first-day viewing trailer in history

A series of comments showed positive reactions to new episodes from the audience, especially Korean audiences: "It's been a long time since I got goosebumps when I watched such a trailer"; "I just saw jumping rope and felt nervous"; "The question 'Do you still believe in people?' really haunts and stays in my mind."

Currently, not only attracting a huge number of views, the audience's reaction to the Squid Game 3 trailer is also extremely positive. If part 2 received many mixed reactions, now through only 2 minutes of part 3 teaser, the audience has placed great faith in this film brand. The return of the male lead Lee Jung Jae in a new look with an elegant suit attached to the number 456 caused a lot of curiosity. Netizens around the world strongly passed on this shaping transformation of the male protagonist and put forward a series of theories about the final boss of Squid Game.

Meanwhile, in the new Netflix event, the actors also made the atmosphere hotter than ever when constantly hinting at the plot of season 3. Lee Byung Hun said, "Ki Hoon vows to stop the game and the leader will make the next unpredictable move." While Lee Jung Jae affirmed that Squid Game will amaze the world with its ending. Park Sung Hoon also expressed his confidence when sharing, "No matter what the audience imagines, you will see more of it in Squid Game 3."

Squid Game 3 will continue the unfinished storyline in part 2, after Ki Hoon and his teammates launch a rebellion in the survival game. At the end of season 2, Ki Hoon is arrested and the identity of the person behind the entire cruel game has also been revealed. According to the trailer, in part 3, player number 456 – Ki Hoon – will not be suspended for rebellion but will continue to participate in new rounds. This opens up a dramatic confrontation between him and the Squid Game executives, promising tense and unexpected developments.

In addition to the jump rope game, there is a series of blue-red balls in the Squid Game 3 trailer revealed in early May. The latest trailer further reveals that, after dividing the teams according to the color of the shadow, they will be put into a maze-like architecture with a star-shaped sky and stone walls that are higher than people's heads.

The next developments are mostly players confronting opponents of different colors. Maybe this is a team-individual game, each person must reach the destination within the allotted time for the whole team to win. This game will not be as heavy on concentration as jumping rope, but can be a psychological battle and survival instinct of each person.

When it launched in September 2021, Squid Game set a record of 1.6 billion hours viewed in just 28 days – equivalent to nearly 60 million views per day. The film held the global top 10 for 106 days and was the first film to top the charts in all 83 countries where Netflix was present at the time.

Lee Jung Jae became the first Korean actor to win Best Actor at both the People's Choice Awards and the Screen Actors Guild Awards – proving the film's appeal to both the public and professionals. Squid Game also brought home 6 Emmy Awards out of a total of 13 nominations.
