Park Gyu-young‘s character, a former soldier and North Korean defector, is driven by a single purpose: to find her young daughter left behind in the North.
Park Gyu-young reportedly underwent significant weight loss to portray Kang No-eul with a dry and desolate demeanor. Despite her naturally talkative personality, she kept her role a secret from even her parents until the season’s release.
Due to the season’s abrupt ending, which hints at the story continuing in Season 3, Kang No-eul’s arc remains incomplete. This has sparked widespread speculation among viewers worldwide, with theories about the character proliferating online. Some even suggest that Kang No-eul could be the daughter of Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae). Responding to such theories, Park Gyu-young said in a recent interview, “I find these predictions very entertaining. It shows how much viewers care and want to understand the story.“
Additionally, connections between Kang No-eul and Kang Sae-byeok from Season 1 have been discussed, as their similar names suggest potential narrative links. Another theory involves her connection to Gyeong-seok (Lee Jin-wook), a contestant who cares for his sick daughter. Kang No-eul is shown briefly interacting with Gyeong-seok and his daughter during her time working part-time at an amusement park in the outside world.
For fans eager to see Kang No-eul’s story concluded in Season 3, Park Gyu-young teased, “Kang No-eul will move fearlessly toward what she believes is right.” She also hinted at exciting developments in the upcoming season, “Season 3 features incredibly intriguing games. It will be worth the wait.“
Having appeared in “Sweet Home”, “Celebrity” and now “Squid Game”, Park Gyu-young is being hailed as “Netflix’s new daughter”. She humbly acknowledged the title, saying, “I think that label fits me now.” Since joining “Squid Game”, she has also started studying English, explaining, “It’s always good to be prepared for any opportunities that may come.”
