While season 2 of Squid Game has just been released on Netflix, fans already have a theory regarding the storyline and the end of season 3. Spoiler alert!
Three years after the worldwide success of Squid Game, the second season of the series was released on December 26 on Netflix. As soon as it was broadcast, the program attracted a lot of attention and for good reason: the rapper who plays the role of Thanos found himself at the heart of a legal case shortly before the release of the season, while the actor Park Sung Hoon shared a pornographic image from the series, shocking netizens.
After watching the seven episodes, viewers discovered a new session of games, each more dangerous than the last. The character of Seong Gi-hun, who won the last edition, returned to the race in a desperate attempt to cancel the competition, with the help of new players.

But an important element came to disrupt Gi-hun’s plans: in episode 3, we learned that player 001 is in reality the Front Man, in other words the Game Master who infiltrated incognito into Squid’s trials Game. Information that the characters in the series do not know.
At the end of the season, Gi-hun manages to lead an insurrection to sabotage the games. The players neutralize the soldiers to find the Game Master, without knowing that he was among them. That’s when the Front Man reveals his identity and kills Jung-bae, Gi-hun’s best friend, in cold blood. A heartbreaking scene in which we see the hero of Squid Game mourn the death of his friend before being taken away by the guards.
What next for season 3?
Since the broadcast of season 2, fans have been dissecting the series to find clues regarding the rest of the story. Indeed, this ending left fans of the series in suspense. What will happen to Gi-hun, whose plans have been discovered? To answer this question, fans of the series already have a theory.

On Reddit, a user shared his hypothesis. According to him, Gin-hun will not be killed but forced to watch the games. Faced with the cruelty of the latter, he would change his point of view and could begin to believe that all humans are cruel and that they do not deserve to be saved. Thus, he could become the new Front Man, responsible for the games. This theory was also shared on La Chaîne du Geek. According to the YouTuber, Gi-hun will lose all hope in humanity and will decide to help organize the next games.
Another viewer shared a second interesting theory. According to him, Gi-hun will subsequently have the choice of joining the Game Leader, to take the place of the recruiter and end the current games, or to continue participating in them to save as many players as possible. In this second scenario, Gin-hu could therefore choose to sacrifice himself so that the greatest number of participants survive and to ensure that the games do not continue. Finally, we can also wonder how Hwang Jun-ho will react when he sees his brother, the Front Man, who shot him at the end of the first season.
To know how Squid Game will end, we will have to wait for the release of season 3, the date of which was recently announced by mistake by Netflix. To keep fans waiting, the streaming platform unveiled a short teaser in which we can see a new doll during the game 1, 2, 3 Soleil. Images that the most attentive among us were also able to see at the end of the credits of the last episode of season 2.
