The excitement for Squid Game Season 2 is palpable, especially with the recent teaser featuring Gong Yoo (Kim Shin, Goblin, 2016) as The Salesman. Set to release on December 26, this season promises another intense chapter in the survival game saga.


The minute-long teaser, titled “You’re Invited,” offers a cinematic glimpse into The Salesman's daily routine.

Gong Yoo’s role has sparked a flurry of fan theories online. One popular theory from Reddit user Lebyclist suggests that The Salesman is the son of Il Nam, the original host of the Squid Game. This theory proposes that he will assume the role of game master, following Il Nam's death.


Another Redditor, Zoulogist, argues that the casting of prominent actors like Gong Yoo and the Frontman indicates their roles will expand significantly. Fans believe this new season will delve deeper into their backstories, enhancing the show's complexity.
