After Squid Game season 2 ended with many open episodes, the audience couldn't help but look forward to season 3 of this cult series. Recently, the producer has set a release date and revealed the plot of the new season that fans are eagerly waiting for.

Specifically, Squid Game season 3 has been confirmed to debut on June 27, 2025 with the participation of many familiar faces from the first two seasons. Lee Jung-jae will return as Gi-hun. At the end of season 2, his character was not harmed by the Leader. Lee Byung-hun will also continue to play the role of the Leader, and Wi Ha-joon will continue to transform into Jun-ho, the Leader's younger brother.

In addition, the three stars Park Sung Hoon, Kang Ha Neul, and Yim Siwan will return for the roles of Hyun Joo, Da Ho, and player 333, as these characters all survived at the end of season 2.

Besides, Squid Game season 3 will continue the story of Kang No-eul played by actress Park Gyu-young. In the film, Kang No-eul is a defector from North Korea, with the sole purpose of finding his young daughter.

Squid Game Season 3 Storyline

According to director - producer Hwang Dong Hyuk, season 3 will be the last season of the series, closing the story of the character Gi-hun. The film will continue immediately after the episodes in season 2.

A notable point in season 3 is the appearance of a new killing doll named Chul Su, next to Younghee - the iconic doll in the game "Red Light, Green Light". Chul Su's appearance promises to bring thrilling and surprising episodes to viewers.

It can be said that Squid Game is successful thanks to the meticulousness in the script. Recently, the art director of the hit series "Squid Game" Chae Kyoung Sun revealed 5 meaningful details that the audience may have missed while watching the drama.

1. Flower pots

Chae Kyoung Sun said that she cried after reading the script of the episode "Gganbu" in "Squid Game" season 1. She is very interested in creating the setting of this episode. Although this is also the episode that takes the longest to make.

One specific detail that the audience may not notice is the flower pots in the scene of 2 players Kang Sae Byeok (Jung Ho Yeon) and Ji Yeong (Lee Yoo Mi).

The art director arranged the flower pots behind the two players. The pot on Sae Byeok's side has a fresh flower, while the pot on Ji Young's side has a dead flower. This is a sign of which character will die in the game from the beginning.

2. Hierarchical system according to shape

If you watch the last episode of "Squid Game" season 1 carefully, the audience can notice that the circles, triangles, and squares used throughout the movie are taken from the "board" of the squid game.

They are also the characters "ᄋ", "ᄌ", "ᄆ" in the Korean title: "오징어 게임". However, there is another detail about the shapes.

According to Chae Kyoung Sun, all the guards in the game are ranked in rank, and this is shown by the shape on their masks.

The shape with the most vertices (square) represents the guards with the highest rank, while the shape with the fewest peaks (circle) represents the lower rank.

3. The meaning of color

Players in "Squid Game" wear green tracksuits because they resemble those used in a South Korean political initiative in the 1970s – the "new rural movement".

At that time, school children were allowed to wear green tracksuits, with the aim of bringing rural areas to catch up with urban life.

However, the South Korean government has been condemned for the way the movement suppresses and destroys local culture, traditions, and beliefs.

Pink was also chosen as the dominant color in "Squid Game", appearing in maze-like corridors and gift box-shaped coffin bows. Pink was chosen because it often appears in fairy tales.

Besides, pink and green are located opposite each other on the color circle board, reflecting the opposition of the guard and the player.

"Green is very afraid of pink, because pink monitors and prevents green," said Artistic Director Chae Kyoung Sun.

4. "Artificial" context

In "Squid Game", there are many scenes that are made up to look "artificial" in a confusing way. For example, in the game "Red light, green light", the background of the field and sky is sketchy and easy to see is not a real scene.

These artificial designs actually have their own intentions. Chae Kyoung Sun explained, in the original script, the lack of realism in the context was used to confuse players between reality and fiction.

"When players first enter the 'Red Light, Green Light' game scene, everything seems artificial and artificial, which makes them deny the fact that people are really going to die here," the art director added.

5. Drag line

In tug-of-war, the gray, patchy floor is made to resemble a road. Yellow line markings and fake street backgrounds are added to complete the theme.

According to Chae Kyoung Sun, since the players were stuck with a mountain of debt with no clear path ahead, the art direction team decided to use an unconnected path for this game setting.

This reflects the situation of players who "have nowhere to go" in their lives.
