The creator of Netflix’s Squid Game says the hit television series will be back for a second instalment. Gracious for the show’s global success, director Hwang Dong-hyuk said, “I almost feel like you leave us no choice. There’s been so much pressure, so much demand and so much love for a second season,” he said at a celebration for the show.

“It’s in my head right now. I’m in the planning process currently. But I do think it’s too early to say when and how that’s going to happen. So I will promise you this, [Seong] Gi-hun will be back and he’ll do something for the world,” explained Hwang.
