Netflix held a production presentation for the original series 'Squid Game' Season 3 (played by Hwang Dong-hyuk, directed by 'Squid Game 3') at Seoul Dragon City in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, on the morning of the 9th. Director Hwang Dong-hyuk, Lee Jung-jae, Lee Byung-hun, Lim Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Wi Ha-joon, Park Kyu-young, Park Sung-hoon, Yang Dong-geun, Kang Ae-sim, Jo Yu-ri, Chae Kook-hee, Lee Da-wit, and Roh Jae-won attended the event.
Lee Byung-hun said, `Every time I finish a work, I feel a bittersweet feeling. What was a little new was that during the season 2 of 'Squid Game', we were promoted in the United States, seeing fans and seeing their hospitality, and receiving tremendous support and hospitality that we had never felt before, so it was a new experience to receive tremendous hospitality with our contents, where both directors and colleagues are Korean. We still have various promotions for Season 3 overseas, and I always think that this work gives me different and great meaning because it allows me to have amazing and happy experiences that I have not experienced even though I have lived as an actor for a long time."
'Squid Game 3' corresponds to the final finale of the 'Squid Game' series that sparked global syndrome. Season 3 tells the story of Ki-hoon (Lee Jung-jae), who lost his best friend in a game that he participated again with his own purpose, the frontman (Lee Byung-hun), who hid in the game while hiding his identity, and the final fate of the participants who survived the cruel game.
It will be released on Netflix on the 27th.
