Good news for NFLX: ‘Squid Game’ Is Coming Back for Season Two, Creator Says Hwang Dong-hyuk says there’s demand for another season following the show’s success; date isn’t yet set By Joseph Pisani Wall Street Journal Nov. 9, 2021 6:16 pm ET Netflix says ‘Squid Game’ is its most popular show ever. PHOTO: YOUNGKYU PARK/ASSOCIATED PRESS -------------------------------- A second season of Netflix Inc.’s NFLX 0.70% popular series, “Squid Game,” is in the works, according to the show’s creator. Hwang Dong-hyuk, who wrote and directed the South Korean dystopian drama, told the Associated Press he’s planning a second season in his head, but that it was too early to say when it will come. A Netflix spokeswoman said Tuesday that a second season is in discussions but hasn’t been confirmed yet. “Squid Game,” whose premise revolves around financially broke adults playing deadly Korean children’s games in the hopes of a cash prize, has become a cultural phenomenon less than two months after its debut on the streaming service. Netflix said the show is its most popular ever. TikTok videos of people replicating the children’s games have gone viral. The series has even helped boost sales of white slip-on shoes, like the ones worn on the show. It was also a source of inspiration for Halloween costumes around the world this year, though some school districts banned outfits related to the show, worrying about violent messages that they might portray. Mr. Hwang said in the AP interview that there has been a lot of pressure and demand for a second season because of the show’s success.
