The long-awaited, highly anticipated second season of “Squid Game” is finally here! A new chapter unfolds two years after the events of the first season, as Gi-hun continues his unrelenting search for whoever is responsible for the games and determination to put an end to everything — no matter what it takes.

The countdown is on. As alliances shift and rivalries ignite, “Squid Game: Season 2” raises the stakes in ways fans could never have imagined. Netflix amps up anticipation with the release of character key art and a “Meet the Cast” featurette, unveiling the characters’ back numbers.

  Lee Jung-jae “Gi-hun” (No. 456)

Three years ago, after winning a game and on his way to meet his daughter in the United States, he hears the voice of the “Frontman” and turns back for revenge. He returns as Player 456 to participate in the game once more, determined to uncover those hiding behind it and put an end to the deadly game once and for all.

Yim Si-wan “Myung-gi” (No. 333)

A former cryptocurrency influencer who, after losing a hefty sum of cash and incurring huge losses for himself and his subscribers, becomes a fugitive until his involvement in the game.

Kang Ha-neul “Dae-ho” (No. 388)

A boisterous and outgoing individual who proudly claims to be a former marine, he exudes confidence. After hearing Gi-hun’s account of his previous experience in the game, he decides to look up to him as a mentor.

Lee Jin-uk “Gyeong-seok” (No. 246)

An artist who draws portraits at an amusement park. He has a daughter with cancer whose medication is not covered by insurance, and he participates in the game to pay for her treatment.

Yang Dong-geun “Yong-sik” (No. 007)

A compulsive gambler neck-deep in debt who finds his own mother is a participant in the game.

Kang Ae-sim “Geum-ja” (No. 149)

A headstrong woman with a strong drive to provide for her family. She joins the game with the intention of paying off her son’s debts—only to find that he’s joined the game as well.

Lee Seo-hwan “Jung-bae” (No. 390)

A long-time friend and former coworker of Gi-hun’s who was last seen gambling alongside Gi-hun at the horse race track (in Season 1).

Jo Yu-ri “Jun-hee” (No. 222)

A strong-willed woman who participates in the game due to bad investments made at the advice of an influencer.
