Fans of the Netflix original South Korean show Squid Game will be thrilled to learn that creator Hwang Dong-hyuk is planning a second season of the hit show.
With more than 100 million people around the world having watched Squid Game in its first month, it has now been confirmed season two is in the pipeline. The dystopian South Korean show was a huge hit for Netflix becoming the largest launch ever for the streaming giant.
The series, set in South Korea, sees people who are heavily in debt invited to play a series of challenges which could see them scoop 45.6bn (around £28m).
Dong-hyuk said in a press interview, "There's been so much pressure, so much demand and so much love for a second season. 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, Gi-hun will be back and he'll do something for the world."
