As someone who has been through the rollercoaster that was the first season of Squid Game, I can confidently say that the hype for Season 2 is reaching unprecedented levels. The latest featurette, titled “The Backrooms (Found Footage),” is a chilling glimpse into the world we’ve come to know and fear, but this time, it feels like we’re stepping into a horror movie.
In a chilling twist, if the idea of finding oneself trapped inside an enormous playground designed for children, under the control of unknown billionaires who wager on your suffering, doesn’t send shivers down your spine, then Netflix has unveiled an even more eerie trailer for the upcoming season 2 of “Squid Game.” The anticipated sequel to Netflix’s sensational South Korean suspense series is set to premiere on December 26, 2024. Although the players may bear the emotional and physical scars (or perhaps pay the ultimate price), viewers eagerly anticipate diving back into the dangerously whimsical games once more.
If you hadn’t watched the enormously popular first season (it’s so famous that your grandma has seen Squid Game), you might mistake the latest trailer for a horror movie spin-off. The aptly named “The Backrooms (Found Footage)” features a handheld camera recording a mysterious figure sneaking into the play area. Viewers get to see the colorful walkway players had to walk through before each life-threatening game, along with new footage of the dorm and an entirely new game room.
The video starts by showing the freshly-arranged dormitory space, partitioned into two distinct areas using a striking white boundary. In an interview with the BBC recently, Squid Game’s creator, Hwang Dong-hyuk, hinted that this dormitory would present additional challenges for the contestants. “Following each game,” he explained, “the players will retreat to their divided dorm room.” Dong-hyuk disclosed that after every competition, the participants will be asked to vote on whether they wish to continue playing… with severe repercussions. He added, “The remaining players will then cast a vote on whether they want to carry on or depart from the show. Those with fewer votes will face elimination.
The short video was influenced by a chilling horror tale, shared on 4chan in the year 2019. This tale originated from an intriguing photograph of a vacant office building. As users started developing the backstory for the room, one anonymous individual christened the photo as “The Backrooms,” describing it as follows: “If you’re not cautious and accidentally teleport out of reality in improper locations, you’ll find yourself in the Backrooms – a place where there’s only the smell of old damp carpet, the eerie hue of mono-yellow, constant noise from fluorescent lights at their maximum hum-buzz, and about 600 million square miles of randomly divided empty rooms to be imprisoned in. May fortune favor you if you hear something moving nearby, because it’s safe to assume that it has heard you too.
In conclusion, the video ends tantalizingly with a hint of a fresh setting – a grand opera house-like room adorned with a towering statue at its center. However, it’s tricky to discern the statue’s subject matter. It seems likely that this enigmatic room will play a significant role in Season 2, possibly serving as the climactic stage or game.
In the second season of “Squid Game,” actor Lee Jung-jae will once again take on the character of Seong Gi-hun. Following his victory in the perilous tournament from Season 1, Gi-hun is back with the aim of rescuing fresh players and dismantling the games. Actors Lee Byung-hun, Wi Ha-jun, and Gong Yoo will also rejoin the cast. New faces joining the series include Kang Ha-neul, Yim Si-wan, Park Gyu-young, Lee Jun-uk, and others.
