Squid Game: Hate.d by its "father", the male lead reveals shocking details of season 2 and 3

Creating 3 seasons of "Squid Game", no one thought Hwang Dong Hyuk would hate "his brainchild". Until a recent interview, the director revealed the reason why.

Accordingly, Hwang Dong Hyuk said: "Anyone who watches Squid Game can see the anti-capitalist message and criticiz.e the ruling class. But ironically, when it airs, its popularity encourages consumerism and becomes a business tool for Netflix."

As evidence, after the resounding success of the first season of "Squid Game", Netflix took advantage of this to launch the reality show " Squid Game: The Challenge" in 2023 while waiting for Hwang Dong Hyuk to complete the script for the second season.

"They didn't stop there, they also created the mobile game Squid Game: Unleashed and the virtual reality adventure Squid Game: Virtuals. Last October, a role-playing game called Squid Game: The Experience was also performed at Madison Square Garden in New York," the director was upset.

In addition, the famous content creator also revealed that at first, he did not plan to continue making "Squid Game" because it was too stressful, even losing 8 teeth during the production of the first season. "I did not intend to do a second season because the whole process of writing the script, producing and directing the film was really difficult."

The only reason Hwang Dong Hyuk agreed to participate in the sequels was because the success of the first part "gave me motivation and courage." Although there is still one more part after the second part is released on December 26, the director has his eyes on a different future.

"I'm exhausted and tired. It's a bit harsh, but I have to admit that I'm sick of Squid Game," Hwang continued. "I'm so sick of the life of creating and promoting something. For now, I can't think about my next project. I just want to go to a remote island, have time for myself, and not get any calls from Netflix. Of course, not an island like Squid Game."

Not only Hwang Dong Hyuk but Lee Jung Jae also shared interesting things about "Squid Game". Specifically, in an interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the actor said that player Seong Gi Hun (played by himself) will return with new challenges, but without many familiar faces by his side.

"First of all, many people will be kille.d," the 7x actor revealed. This is an obvious highlight in a film known for its violent plot. However, Lee Jung Jae said that Player 465 will not have to face off against previous winners in the game. Instead, the audience will see the return of Young Hee, also known as Doll - a memorable symbol from the first part.

The actor also shared the pressure the production team faced when season 1 was so popular. "Because the first season was so popular, we felt pressured about whether the second season would be as popular," he continued, "However, the story has become more diverse and deeper, with a very clear theme."

For Lee Jung Jae, the success of the hit series earned him an Emmy in 2022, marking the first time an Asian actor has received the awar.d in the Best Actor category. The 7x actor felt that night was special because both he and director Hwang won.

With exciting information from Lee Jung Jae about "Squid Game 2" and plans for "Squid Game 3", audiences are eagerly awaiting the return of this drama on the small screen. New surprises and profound stories promise to bring interesting experiences to viewers in the near future.
