P likely to continue after release By KTimes In a recently released trailer for Netflix’s “Squid Game” Season 2, Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) screams desperately, “I've been through this game. If we keep going, everyone’s really going to die!" He pleads with other participants to end the game, but only receives scorn in return: “Why did a guy like you crawl back here?” Gi-hun, who wants to stop the game, wears a red X-shaped sticker on his chest, while those shouting “One more time!” to continue the game bear a blue O-shaped sticker. Scheduled to premiere on Dec.

A new rule for this season is the “O-X voting.” At the end of each game, participants vote on whether to continue or end the game, allowing them to potentially earn more prize money or quit the competition. In the English trailer for “Squid Game” Season 2, participant 230 (T.
