According to Netflix, it “only took 17 days” after the Korean series’ September 17 debut “and 111 million global fans” for the nine-episode series Squid Game to become the streamer’s biggest series ever, and the first to surpass 100 million views.
Hearing the big plans for his character, Lee who plays the lead character Seong Gi-Hun said there is no secret to not spoiling what’s to come, “because I don’t even know what’s going to happen.”
“We actually wrestled between two different scenarios for the ending. There was one, the other alternate ending, where Gi-hun would get on the plane and leave. And then there was of course the one where he would turn back and walk towards the camera. We constantly asked ourselves, is it really right for Gi-hun to make the decision to leave and go see his family, to pursue his own happiness? Is that the right way for us to really propose the question or the message that we wanted to convey through the series?”
Aside from the consequences for the story; the way Squid Game ended provides Netflix with the narrative boost it needs for the show’s second season.
