Gong Yoo Returns to Squid Game Season 2 With a New Teaser: Fans Excited for the Mysterious Salesman
The fans of the show are getting all excited as the second season of Squid Game, which has now been officially confirmed by Netflix, will be premiering on December 26, 2024. According to a new teaser released, some key highlights included the return of South Korean actor Gong Yoo reprising his role as the mysterious Salesman. This was one character that audiences were concerned about in the first season, and now, his coming back is generating interest in his mysterious mission in the second season.
The Salesman’s Return
Gong Yoo’s Salesman, the man who recruits those players for the deadly games of Squid Game, was one of the most memorable characters from the first season, introducing Seong Gi-hun to this game through a very basic yet high-stakes game of ddakji by playing at a subway station. In the new teaser, “You’re Invited,” the Salesman is seen carrying on his ominous recruitment process by inviting an unsuspecting man with the question, “Would you like to play a game with me?”
The figure of the Salesman getting ready for his day with his iconic briefcase and red and blue tiles has fans excited.
What to Expect in Season 2
Perhaps, it would be exciting to know more about what his role as a Salesman entails in the games. Many are interested in seeing his story and whether he will play a much larger role in the tournament. Returning characters include Seong Gi-hun, Lee Jung-jae, and the Front Man, Lee Byung-hun who get joined by new faces in making an exciting and suspenseful continuation of the story.
Fan Reactions
Still, it appears that the presence of Gong Yoo has ignited a lot of hype among viewers. Viewers have grown accustomed to him since Train to Busan and a peek at the moments wherein he appeared in Goblin. Therefore, everyone awaits to see how the Salesman will evolve as a character and if the entirety of the relationship with Gi-hun means something in the Season that arrived recently.
This is just a few months before the return of Squid Game Season 2, but the teaser already accompanied by Gong Yoo fueled excitement to quite an extreme. The Salesman from Squid Game, Gong Yoo, would again leave the audience intrigued, as people want to know how his character will influence new moves for the series of deadly games. Fans can hardly wait to find out what twists and turns are in store for this new season.
