According to the OTT ranking aggregation site FlixPatrol, 'Squid Game 2' has been at the top of Netflix's world TV show category for three consecutive days since its release, showing off its box office potential. In particular, it proved its unrivaled popularity by ranking first in all countries except New Zealand among 93 countries.
Netflix's original series 'Squid Game 2' depicts a fierce battle between Sung Ki-hoon (Lee Jung-jae) who returns to participate in the game after vowing revenge and frontman (Lee Byung-hun) who greets him.
With actor Lee Jung-jae at the center of global issues due to the promotion of the season 2 of "Squid Game," Artist United, which is set to merge with the artist company on the 17th of next month, is drawing attention. Artist United and Artist Company are major shareholders of the leading actor Lee Jung-jae of 「Squid Game 2」.
As Squid Game 2, which won the top spot in all countries where Netflix can be watched, has been successful in the early stages, interest in Artist United is also increasing.
Actor Lee Jung-jae will become the largest shareholder of Artist United and a representative actor after the merger.
Artist United has steadily expanded its production and distribution capabilities through this year's co-production of drama 'SALON DE HOMES', providing a stable growth engine based on boosting content production and distribution.
An Artist United representative said "It is receiving positive reviews overall due to actor Lee Jung-jae's global activities and merger synergy."We plan to become a comprehensive entertainment company by expanding our business to production, distribution, and commerce sectors through mergers."
