Netflix's hit series 'Squid Game' is set to return with its highly anticipated Season 3 on June 27. The newly released teaser poster, trailer, and stills have sparked curiosity among fans.
Season 3 of 'Squid Game' follows Gi-hun, who re-enters the deadly game with a personal agenda, only to lose his closest friend. The story also delves into the mysterious Front Man and the fate of the surviving participants.
The teaser poster captures attention with Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung-jae) standing among coffins wrapped in pink ribbons. His intense expression reflects his anger over losing his friend Jung-bae (played by Lee Seo-hwan) and fellow participants, raising questions about the changes Gi-hun will undergo in Season 3. The tagline "The final game for 45.6 billion won" and the lined-up coffins intrigue viewers about the fate of the remaining players and the ultimate winner.
The teaser trailer begins with upbeat music and Pink Guards carrying a coffin into the dormitory, revealing Gi-hun as the owner. As Gi-hun opens his eyes, the story of Season 3 unfolds. Participants randomly pick balls of two colors and face each other in a maze-like setting, hinting at new games to come.
A scene showing VIPs preparing for a banquet suggests the game is nearing its end. As the games grow more intense, the participants face extreme emotions, leaving viewers wondering about their ultimate fate.
Jun-ho (played by Wi Ha-jun) continues to track the game, while Pink Guard No-eul (played by Park Gyu-young) surveys the arena alone, adding to the anticipation of a dynamic storyline in Season 3. The sound of a baby's cry at the end of the trailer heightens the suspense, especially concerning the fate of the pregnant Jun-hee (played by Jo Yu-ri).
The stills released alongside the teaser poster and trailer depict characters facing new challenges after a rebellion. Gi-hun's desperate expression as he is captured by Pink Guards conveys his turmoil. In contrast, the calm demeanor of the Front Man (played by Lee Byung-hun) raises questions about his confrontation with Gi-hun. Surviving participants Myung-gi (played by Im Si-wan), Dae-ho (played by Kang Ha-neul), Hyun-joo (played by Park Sung-hoon), Yong-sik (played by Yang Dong-geun), Geum-ja (played by Kang Ae-shim), Jun-hee, Sun-nyeo (played by Chae Gook-hee), Min-soo (played by Lee Da-wit), and Nam-gyu (played by Noh Jae-won) are also highlighted. As the game progresses, their increasing fear and tension draw attention to whether they can survive until the end.
A still of Jun-ho catching his breath on a beach with an oxygen tank raises questions about his discovery of the island where the game takes place. No-eul's confrontation without her mask suggests a break from Pink Guard rules, sparking interest in her next move. The room with a keyhole and knife-shaped door hints at new games in Season 3.
The final game of 'Squid Game' will unfold in Season 3, premiering on Netflix on June 27.
