We requested the forged and crew of the worldwide sensation Korean drama sequence in regards to the second season.
The recognition of the Korean sequence Squid Recreation was with out comparability when the primary season debuted again in 2021. Since then, the Ok-drama has been a sizzling matter because the second season was introduced. With Squid Recreation 2 hitting Netflix the day after Christmas, followers will lastly be taught what the brand new spherical of video games will embody and the way the return of Lee Jung-jae as Gi-hun will alter the plans of The Entrance Man (Lee Byung-hun) and people behind the competitors.
I received the prospect to ask questions in regards to the stars and creator of Squid Recreation 2 earlier than the second season premiered on Netflix. Keep in mind that a few of these solutions might contain spoilers for Squid Recreation 2, so proceed cautiously.
Director Hwang Dong-hyuk, who wrote and helmed all seven episodes this season, already has plans for the third season of Squid Recreation, whereas Netflix has aspirations to show the sequence right into a franchise. I requested the director if there have been any plans to broaden to worldwide variations of Squid Recreation within the type of spin-offs.
“It would be great if each of the other countries could take it up for themselves. I don’t think it will be easy for me to travel to these countries and create their versions of Squid Game. I feel like the most fitting version of Squid Game for each country would best be done by their local creators. So my personal hope is that we would get a different version of Squid Game for each of the different countries by their local creators. That’d be great.”
Returning star Lee Jung-jae, who reprises his function as Gi-hun (Participant 456) had a problem of portraying the one contestant who has expertise with the competitors. I requested if it was a problem portraying the character in a darker place this time round.
“Yes, it was much more challenging for me to portray the darker Gi-hun because you can’t be so expressive when you’re a darker character. He was always tense in season two, always focused on achieving his only one goal of, you know, saving people and putting an end to the game. So I thought, what would make me look very grounded? I try to put myself in his shoes, but I am the only one who plays him. So, who can I ask for more advice? So that was the hard part, but I thought that because his only goal in season two was to make it out alive with his contestants. Understanding the other characters’ backstories better and deeper would help me because I realized that while he is a darker character, he is a very altruistic character, so when I understood that, that made it easier for me to portray this character.”
We additionally spoke with new forged member Jo Yu-ri, who portrays Kim Jun-hee (Participant 222). I requested what it was like becoming a member of a sequence with an enormous worldwide fan following and with such large expectations for the second season.
“Season one was such a huge success commercially and both in terms of impact. And I was a huge fan of the season one. I was actually one of those fans who was waiting for the announcement of season two. So, when I first heard that I had this offer from the team. I couldn’t really believe it. At first, it didn’t feel real.”
Lots is occurring within the second season of Squid Recreation 2, which units up the opportunity of a 3rd season. With the entire season premiering whereas many individuals are off work to have fun the vacations, anticipate plenty of dialogue within the days and weeks to come back.
Squid Recreation 2 premieres on December twenty sixth on Netflix.
