Director Hwang Dong-hyuk met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 30th and interviewed Netflix's original series 'Squid Game Season 3' (played by Hwang Dong-hyuk, directed by 'Squid Game 3'). In the latter part of "Squid Game 3", Cate Blanchett appeared in the background of the United States as a scabby girl, suggesting that the game was continuing in the United States. When asked about the possibility of the U.S. spin-off, he said "It wasn't (intended)." Then "In fact, in the past, if Sung Ki-hoon lived in the United States, I thought about the ending of seeing another recuperator in the United States." If so, there would have been more room for the story to continue, but when Sung Ki-hoon made the ending by death, the ending did not mean that. The Korean game was ended with one person's effort and sacrifice, but the system was so solid that it was a symbolic meaning that everything did not end easily. I didn't try to connect it to the American version or connect it."
Recently, there has been a rumor in the United States that the American version of 'Squid Game' produced by David Fincher will continue. Leading US media also mentioned this, and it seemed to gain strength. However, Hwang seems to have received a rummer and wrote it. There is no basis in fact whatsoever. I know the article by reading it, but I don't know how far it is true. It's a completely unfounded story that I'm going to shoot in December, I'm directing, and Cate Blanchett is coming out. I like director David Fincher and I've liked him since 'Seven' so I think it would be fun to make it."
In addition, although it is a short amount in season 3 of 'Squid Game', it drew attention as it featured the frontman's past game played by Lee Byung-hun. In response, requests to produce spin-off episodes were also flooded. In response, Hwang said, `After just making it, I thought so. Since I have delivered everything I want to say, there is no point in continuing after, and I want to try a different tone of work. Choi (Jeon Seok-ho) searches the house of Captain Park (Oh Dal-soo), and there is a picture of fishing on the wall. There is a picture with Ddakji Nam (Gong Yoo), and as you pass by, there is a picture with Inho (Lee Byung-hun). I hid it slightly. Where and how this picture was taken. I thought it would be fun to talk about that. Since I don't have any specific thoughts, I thought of putting down the burden of messages and wanting to talk about such interesting stories. It's still vague to say when you're going to do it. I think I'll be able to try it someday if I have a chance."
