Watch Squid Game Stars Chuckle Over Season 2 Fan Theories

Season one of Squid Game was packed full of mysteries, twists, shocking reveals, and just shocks in general—no wonder it was a hugely popular hit for Netflix that also raked in critical acclaim, including six Emmys and a historic first Outstanding Drama Series nomination for a non-English language show. So it’s no wonder that fans have cooked up ideas about what to expect when the show returns in December.

In a new video shared as part of Netflix’s ongoing Geeked Week, stars Lee Jung-jae (last season’s unlikely but impossible-not-to-root-for winner Seong Gi-hun), Lee Byung-hun (the Front Man, definitely a character still hiding some major secrets), and Wi Ha-jun (determined detective Hwang Jun-ho) pull up a chair and react to fan theories gathered from viewers all over the world.

Are Squid Game fan theories the universal language that will unite us all? It’s entirely possible!

Our favorite suggestions include:

  1. Season two will reveal more about the jumpsuit-wearing Squid Game staff from season one, maybe even showing the same events from their point of view. Wi Ha-Jun likes this theory, but… no.
  2. There’s a special meaning behind which color envelope prospective Squid Game competitors choose when they’re being recruited. Lee Byong-hung deadpans to whichever fan wrote that theory: “I think you’re the only one who thought so.”
  3. Gi-hun will seek revenge on the loan sharks who forced him into playing the game in the first place. “Do you think the kind-hearted Seong Gi-hun would do something to harm others?”, Lee Jung-jae asks cheerfully, as the footage shows his character brutally wailing on someone in season one.

Just about the only solid info that emerges from the video is that there will be “many new games” in season two, and “they are all Korean games,” as well as “season two is more interesting than all these theories put together.” And, of course, the video reacquiants us with Squid Game‘s trio of returning stars—all of whom are a lot more charming in real life than the characters they play on the show.

Season two’s new cast members include Yim Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Park Gyu-young, Lee Jin-uk, Park Sung-hoon, Yang Dong-geun, Kang Ae-sim, Lee David, Choi Seung-hyun, Roh Jae-won, Jo Yu-ri, and Won Ji-an. We don’t know much of anything about who they’re playing, in case you want to squeeze in a few more theories! (According to the video, neither Park nor Jo is playing a grown-up version of Gi-hun’s young daughter.)

All will be revealed—or at least more will be revealed; there’s also a third and final season coming—when Squid Game season two hits Netflix December 26.
