Creator Hwang Dong-hyuk and Emmy winner Lee Jung-jae are back for more death-defying games and nefariously masked villains as the series returns after a three-year absence.

"Squid Game" isn't a surprise anymore. Upon its initial release in 2021, the South Korean drama series hit much larger for Netflix than any of the streamer's other international series, and exceeded hits like "Bridgerton" and "Stranger Things" to become an outright phenomenon and the streamer's most-watched series.
