Season 2 of the Netflix series 'Squid Game' is drawing high expectations by releasing a character introduction video containing the main characters of season 2 and nine posters containing their participation numbers. Season 2 of the 'Squid Game' tells the story of a fierce battle between 'Gi-hoon" (Lee Jung-jae), who returns to the game after vowing revenge, and 'Frontman" (Lee Byung-hun), who greets him, and the real game begins again.
The released 'Squid Game' Season 2 primary character poster is reminiscent of a profile picture taken by game participants right before participating in the game. The poster of #456 'Gihoon' who returned to finish the game contrasts with other participants who are new to the game with a smileless serious look. In the appearance of 'Gi-hoon', which has a different atmosphere from the pure and bright season 1, you can see his tenacity and strong will to re-enter the game to reveal the background of the game.
On the other hand, the profiles of the eight other participants, who are excited about making a lot of money, are either full of smiles or bright expressions with smiles. Lim Si-wan, who plays Coin (Cryptocurrency) Investment YouTuber No. 333 'Myeonggi', Kang Ha-neul, who plays 388 'Daeho', who has a good personality, and Lee Jin-wook, who plays 246 'Kyungseok', who desperately needs medical expenses for his sick daughter, and Park Sung-hoon, who plays transgender No. 120 'Hyunju', who needs money to complete sex confirmation surgery, create a paradoxical tension.
In addition, Yang Dong-geun and Kang Ae-sim, who played 007 'Yongsik' and his mother 149 'Donja', who participated in the game to pay off their gambling debts, are the story of a mother and son at a crossroads of choices in the game where survival is at stake, signaling a new development with characters whose relationship outside the game connects into the game. Lee Seo-hwan as No. 390 'Jungbae', who reunited with his best friend 'Gi-hoon', who lost contact with him after a long time, and Cho Yu-ri as No. 222 'Junhee', who lost a large amount of money due to misinvestment information. The appearance of new participants smiling without knowing what will happen in the future raises expectations for what they will go through in unpredictable games.

Lee Byung-hun, who plays the opposite game director 'Frontman', thought that the biggest goal of 'Frontman' is to destroy the beliefs of '"'Frontman'."," he said, focusing on the confrontation between the two characters. Yu Hajun, who returned alive from season one and played 'Junho' who struggled to find his brother 'frontman', thought he admired and liked his brother "Junho" too much.

"There can be dramatic stories about the characters' warriors, so it's much more fun to watch."Director Hwang Dong-hyuk's words about the new season say that the more colorful characters and multi-layered narratives are the key to watch.

Yang Dong-geun as "Yong-sik" and Kang Ae-sim as "Jun-ja" are respectively protective and very lucky. " Yang Dong-geun as "Yong-sik" is the very existence of "Myeong-gi" to "Yong-sik" is a protective film and a great luck(Yang Dong-geun) as "Yong-geun."
Lee Seo-hwan, who played 'Gi-hoon's friend 'Jung-bae', also explained the relationship between 'Gi-hoon' and 'Jung-bae', predicting a rich narrative.
Kang Ha-neul emphasized his affinity for 'Daeho', which he played, saying, `A character who looks like a sad sly snake that can induce intimacy with his own survival strategy to survive in the wild.' Park Sung-hoon said of 'Hyunju' that he is a 'Hyunju' character who will boldly counteract even in difficult situations, saying, `A character who shows stronger, more decisive, and leadership than anyone else, eroding various prejudices and showing cool sides.'
"'Kyungseok' is a small citizen and his only daughter has blood cancer. You're going to play a game to cure your illnessLee Jin-wook as 'Kyungseok' and Park Kyu-young, who introduced 'Noeul' as 'Kyungseok' who has no will to live except for finding a child'. Each character's desperate story raises questions about the unpredictable development of season 2 of 'Squid Game'.
In addition, various characters will fill season 2 of 'Squid Game' in abundance. Chae Kook-hee is decomposed into a shaman 'Seonnyeo', adding tension among the participants with significant prophecies and curses.
