Netflix‘s ‘Squid Game’, which had been diligently urging people to avoid spoilers, has encountered the ridiculous situation of not being able to prevent spoilers for its cast members, of all places.

On the morning of the 8th, actress Park Gyu-young, who appeared in ‘Squid Game Season 2’, revealed photos from the filming set of ‘Squid Game Season 2’ on her SNS.

In the revealed photos, Park Gyu-young is seen sitting on a chair and relaxing on the set wearing a pink guard uniform.

The problematic part is the identity of the actor sitting next to Park Gyu-young wearing another pink guard uniform. The actor in question is an actor who appeared in ‘Squid Game 2’, and since the character’s identity has not been revealed, Park Gyu-young‘s post was literally a ‘hut spoiler’.

‘Squid Game Season 2’ has a narrative that is closely connected to Season 3, and expectations are growing for what kind of story will unfold in Season 3. This is why Director Hwang Dong-hyeok and the cast including Lee Jung-jae had no choice but to keep quiet in previous interviews about ‘Squid Game Season 2&.



Park Gyu-young herself was tight-lipped about Season 3 in interviews, but said, “People around me asked me about it when the casting article came out. Even my parents had an embargo for over a year,” he revealed.

Netflix has demanded a thorough embargo on events related to ‘Squid Game Season 2’. The press conference between ‘Squid Game Season 2’ director Hwang Dong-hyeok and production company First Man Studio CEO Kim Ji-yeon was held in August of last year, but the embargo was lifted three months later in November. It is already well known that it took about a year to lift the embargo on the public release of ‘Squid Game Season 2’.

Netflix’s efforts to be so anxious about ‘Squid Game Season 2’ have fallen apart. Regarding Park Gyu-young’s post, her agency told Donga.com, “Please understand that it is difficult to confirm as it is a post on the actress’s personal SNS,” and “We will ask for confirmation through Season 3.”
