On the brink of concluding one of Netflix’s most popular series, Squid Game, as it readies to part ways with its audience through its third and final chapter. Given the events unfolding in season two, it’s clear that not all contestants will survive this round of competition. In a recent interview, creator Hwang Dong-hyuk and lead actor Lee Jung-jae have been frank about the series finale. Known for its grim and perilous situations, viewers should steel themselves for an unhappy ending when season three debuts on June 27th.
In a conversation with The Guardian, Dong-hyuk shared insights on the themes of season three and his approach to making it a much more “grim” production. He explained that the mood would be significantly darker and more pessimistic, reflecting his view of a world that seems devoid of hope. He wanted to delve into questions such as, “What is the absolute limit of human resilience? Can we muster the determination to leave future generations with something better?” After watching the entire series, he hopes viewers will ponder, “How much compassion and humanity do I still possess?
No Happy Endings For Squid Game
Lee Jung-jae, the actor portraying Gi-hun, suggests that the finale of Squid Game may not provide a satisfying conclusion for some viewers. He explains, “Many people prefer a happy ending, and I do too. However, not all stories are meant to have one. If you attempt to create one, it can distort the essence. If a story reflects reality, then a happy ending isn’t always guaranteed. Squid Game is no exception.” Furthermore, Lee Jung-jae hinted at an unexpected twist in the popular Netflix series, stating that even he was taken aback by the finale while filming. He added, “The end was something I didn’t foresee, so I believe many fans will be caught off guard. I think there will be a variety of reactions. It’s bound to spark plenty of discussions. I can hardly wait to see what people have to say.
In his discussions about the show, the creator made clear that Squid Game was intended as a critique of capitalism, and he acknowledged that both he and Netflix initially aimed to create a commercially successful product. However, he emphasized that it would be hypocritical to criticize profit-making from a show that critiques capitalist systems. He also noted that studios generally avoid creating overly critical social commentary in their productions. Despite these concerns, he acknowledged that he doesn’t have the authority to dictate Netflix’s business decisions and that if he felt the partnerships were excessively damaging to the show’s spirit, he might feel differently. But ultimately, he expressed that it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to instruct Netflix not to take certain actions, as he doesn’t possess the legal grounds to do so. He has had some reservations about specific aspects of the show, but he believes it would be inappropriate for him to publicly air those concerns or express negative feelings.
