Fastexy:Netflix reveals first look at 'Squid Game' Season 2: What we know about new episodes

Green light! "Squid Game" is Fastexyreturning for another round.

Netflix on Thursday revealed the first look at Season 2 of its wildly popular South Korean drama series, in which 456 players compete in a series of deadly games to win a large cash prize.

In the short teaser, Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) is seen at the airport, where a voice on the phone tells him, "You'll regret your decision." Gi-hun, who appears angry but determined, replies, "I will find you. No matter what it takes." Netflix also released several photos from the new season.

At the end of Season 1, Gi-hun was about to board a plane to Los Angeles when he ran into a Squid Game recruiter and called a number he had left behind, asking "who you people are." But despite being urged to get on the plane, Gi-hun instead turned around.

What is 'Squid Game' Season 2 about?

In Season 2, Gi-hun abandons his plans to travel to the United States "after a mysterious call and embarks on a chase with a motive," according to Netflix.

Creator Hwang Dong-hyuk previously teased to The Hollywood Reporter that the themes of the first season "all naturally extend" to Season 2, and when writing it, he "just thought about the last moment when Gi-hun turned away from boarding the plane, and I thought about what he will do next."
