Viewers of Netflix's Squid Game are saying that the second season is even better than the first.

Fans of Netflix's hit series, Squid Game, are raving about the long-awaited second season, with some even calling it a "masterpiece." The South Korean dystopian thriller first captivated audiences in 2021 and quickly became the streaming service's most-watched show. Now, after a three-year wait, fans can finally dive into seven new episodes.

Season 2 follows protagonist Seong Gi-hun as he returns to the life-or-death game, three years after his initial victory, seeking revenge for those who lost their lives. Viewers have already binge-watched the new season and have taken to social media to share their thoughts. "What a masterpiece, much better than season 1!" exclaimed one fan on Rotten Tomatoes. Another viewer, Darius, shared, "I actually enjoyed it more than season 1! The new characters were dope and the plot kept me on the edge of my seat."

Director Hwang Dong-hyuk, who carried a lot of pressure to deliver a worthy second season, has not disappointed. "It's incredibly rare for a show to have such a breakthrough premise, originality, amazing character development, and brilliant all-round delivery," said fan Josh. "But what's even more rare is for them to pull all that off for a second time, and Squid Game has done it!"

As for the new season's plot, Metro described it as having "jaw-dropping twists and turns" that will "definitely blow audiences away once again." And it seems like Hwang kept his promise to make the wait worthwhile. He explained that Player 456's decision to re-enter the game was due to his difficulty returning to a "normal" life. "There's something inside him that has already been broken, where he cannot return to the way he was before," said Hwang at Netflix's Fall Edit event in November.

Despite Gi-hun's desire to reconnect with his daughter, he understands that he has changed too much to go back to his old life. Instead, he focuses on the "savage game that transformed him into the person he is now." And with the second season already nominated for a Golden Globe award for Best Drama Series, it's clear that Squid Game has once again captivated audiences.
