Are you ready to see Gong Yoo on Netflix this December?
On October 1, Netflix released a new teaser for the much-anticipated original K-drama Squid Game Season 2. Unlike the previous teasers showcasing the main lead, this one was focused on the special character of the K-drama played by Gong Yoo.
In the teaser, Gong Yoo’s character, a mysterious salesman at the subway station, was seen getting ready for his day and inviting selected people to play a game. The teaser ends with the question, “Would you like to play a game with me?” A quick but powerful scene in the teaser, showing Gong Yoo’s character seeking a player for the game, brings back the suspense of the survival game from season 1.
