Squid Game has been one of Netflix’s biggest hits in recent memory, and we’ve known for quite a while that the show was reaching the finish line. With just two weeks to go, Netflix has doled out one last trailer to remind auidneces how far Seong Gi-hun/456 has come and how much he’s playing for keeps.
Last season ended with Gi-hun learning his new game buddy In-ho/001 was actually the Front Man, who then killed his other game buddy, Jung-bae. That’s made for one more death weighing on Gi-hun’s conscience, and as Jang Geum-ja/149 tells him, life ain’t fair and shit happens. But since he’s a good person and “beats [himself] up about the smallest things,” what else can he do but continue trying to bring this whole enterprise down and save the remaining contestants?
While surviving players from the previous season are as beat down by everything as Gi-hun, they’re not all giving up, and some new faces are equally ready to come out on top. Front Man’s brother Jun-ho is trying to make it to the island for a rescue, but everything ultimately hinges on Gi-hun. And that means an eventual reunion with the Front Man, who’s preparing for the incoming arrival of several VIPs and whatever the next phase of his plans are.
How does it all end, and how will Gi-hun “put an end to it?” We’ll find out when the last six episodes of Squid Game premiere June 27 on Netflix.
