Squid Game's final gambit: What lies ahead as the deadliest game returns for Season 3

The clocks are ticking, the masks are back and the stakes are higher than ever. As the world's most chilling survival game nears its end, Squid Game is ready for its final act and fans are bracing for impact. Season 3 of the global phenomenon is officially arriving on June 27, and it promises one last, brutal descent into the psychological battleground where morality, betrayal and survival are the only currencies. Even before the blood had dried from the Season 2 finale, Netflix and Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk were ready to let the world know that the game is not over just yet, but it will be soon. 'I am beyond excited to be writing this letter to announce the date for Season 2 and share the news of Season 3, the final season. The fierce clash between two worlds (Gi-hun and Front Man's) will continue into the series finale with Season 3, which will be brought to you next year,' Hwang wrote previously. For fans who have been following the harrowing arc of Seong Gi-hun (played by Emmy-winning actor Lee Jung-jae), this is the final leg of a journey that has turned from desperate to deeply personal. The highly anticipated third season of the global Netflix sensation Squid Game is set to premiere on June 27. Photo: Netflix Facebook page A legacy of betrayal Season 2 ended with a devastating twist. Gi-hun, driven by grief and guilt, had tried to incite a rebellion within the game, rallying players to take control and dismantle the system from the inside. For a moment, it almost worked. The group breached security and neared the control center. But then the betrayal struck. The Front Man—who had been masquerading as Player 001—unveiled himself and crushed the uprising, killing Gi-hun's closest ally, Jung-bae (played by Lee Seo-hwan) in the process. What awaits in the endgame Season 3 picks up on the emotional wreckage left by the failed revolt. Gi-hun is a broken man, but the game would not wait. As the violent tournament presses on, new players are introduced, each desperate enough to gamble with their lives. The games are crueler, the consequences more severe and the moral boundaries even blurrier. Gi-hun must now navigate not just the labyrinth of death traps, but his own shattered conscience. His humanity is on trial and survival comes at a soul-crushing cost. Meanwhile, the Front Man (played by Lee Byung-hun) tightens his grip on the game, now openly entertaining an elite circle of masked VIPs. His power is absolute, but danger brews close to home. His brother, Hwang Jun-ho (Wi Ha-jun), resumes his covert investigation into the island's secrets, creeping ever closer to answers and perhaps another betrayal. The highly anticipated third season of the global Netflix sensation Squid Game is set to premiere on June 27. Photo: Netflix Facebook page The cast: Familiar faces and new blood Season 3 brings back familiar players and adds new characters to the board, enriching the emotional complexity of the story. The confirmed cast includes: Lee Jung-jae as Gi-hun (Player 456) Lee Byung-hun as the Front Man Wi Ha-jun as Hwang Jun-ho Yim Si-wan as Myung-gi (Player 333) Kang Ha-neul as Dae-ho (Player 388) Park Sung-hoon as Hyun-ju (Player 120) Yang Dong-geun as Yong-sik (Player 007) Kang Ae-sim as Geum-ja (Player 149) Jo Yuri as Jun-hee (Player 222) Lee David as Min-su (Player 125) Roh Jae-won as Nam-gyu (Player 124) Park Gyu-young as No-eul Each new character brings a new motive, a new strategy and more emotional landmines. The trailer: A glimpse into darkness The freshly dropped trailer teases a season steeped in unease. Familiar bunk beds, eerie playgrounds and masked guards return; but the mood is heavier. The failed revolt has made everyone harder, colder. The returning players are herded back to their dormitories. Tensions are thick. Trust is rarer than ever. And in the glittering gallery of masked VIPs, the games are just a spectacle; but for the players, they are everything. The end may be in sight, but how it unfolds is still anybody's guess.

Suga is last BTS member to complete mandatory military service

FILE - Suga, a member of South Korean K-pop band BTS, poses for photographers ahead of a press conference to introduce their new single "Butter" in Seoul, South Korea on May 21, 2021. (AP Photo/Lee Jin-man, File) SUGA (pic), a mem­ber of K-pop megaband BTS, has official­ly completed his mandatory military service, marking the full return of all seven members of the global supergroup from duty. South Korea's most lucrative musical act has been on a self-­ des­cribed 'hiatus' since 2022 as its members undertook the mandatory service required of all South Korean men under 30 due to tensions with the nuclear- armed North. Suga is the last to complete his service, ahead of the group's widely-anticipated return to acti­vi­ties as a full unit. His final day concluded at 11.59.59pm last night, according to the band's agency Hybe and South Korea's Military Manpower Administration. The rapper, who served as a social service agent – an alternative form of military duty – effectively completed his service on Wednesday after using up his remaining leave, according to his label. 'Above all else, I wanted to sincerely thank our fans who waited for me all this time,' Suga told the group's fans – collectively known as Army on the platform Weverse. 'I've missed you so much.' Before entering military service, the megaband generated more than 5.5 trillion won in yearly economic impact, according to the Korea Culture and Tourism Institute. Analysts expect Hybe's opera­ting profit to jump next year, dri­ven in part by BTS's anticipated return to large-scale touring, with some projections forecasting a 71% year-on-year increase. 'The importance of BTS's reunion to Hybe, K-pop and South Korea at large cannot be oversta­ted. They are singular in their part of the Korean Wave,' Grace Kao, a sociology professor at Yale Univer­sity, said. 'I think their next tour will be their biggest yet.' Since their release last week, band leader RM has appeared at Art Basel in Switzerland as the new global ambassador for Sam­sung's Art TV, while member V was spotted attending a piano recital in Seoul alongside Old Boy filmmaker Park Chan-wook. BTS has long been considered one of the best examples of South Korea's soft power reach, even making a White House visit in 2022. They have spoken candidly about mental health and anti-Asian crime and donated US$1mil to the Black Lives Matter movement in 2019, inspiring fans to contribute the same amount. K-pop's surging popularity has also helped break down barriers for Asian artistes, said Keung Yoon-bae, a Korean studies professor at Georgia Institute of Technology. 'Singers such as Eric Nam, born and raised in Atlanta, have discussed before how they had to go to Korea because they felt attaining a music career in the US as an Asian felt impossible,' she said. 'Today, groups such as BTS and Blackpink seem to be breaking down that sense of impossibility.' Despite the widespread acclaim, Suga was fined 15 million won for driving an electric scooter under the influence of alcohol last year. Last Saturday, he once again apologised for the incident in a message posted on Weverse. 'I'm sorry for the disappointment and concern I caused due to what happened last year. More than anything, knowing I caused pain to my fans broke my heart,' he said. 'I'll do my best to repay the love you've given me – now more than ever.' — AFP
