Player 456 Seong Gi-hun, played by Lee Jung-jae, steps back into his iconic green tracksuit in season two

The first trailer for the second season of Squid Game has been released, thrusting viewers back into the deadly arena where champion Seong Gi-hun has returned to play once more.

Three years after his victory in the lethal series of children’s games Gi-hun returns as Player 456 and is joined by hundreds of new players – and tries to lead them to safety.

The first season of the South Korean drama followed a group of 456 people, desperate and in debt, fighting to the ****** for a huge cash prize.

The trailer opens as the sinister masked guards welcome a new cast of characters to the competition.

They are despatched for their first game, also familiar from season one: Red Light Green Light.

Despite Gi-hun’s efforts to coach the players across the finish line to safety, things take a lethal turn.

As in season one, the players get to vote to stop the game or keep playing. While Gi-hun encourages them to focus on “getting out of this place,” the players ignore his pleas.

“One more game,” they chant, as the cash prize fills a giant piggy-bank dangling above them.

Gi-hun tries to encourage the other players to vote to end the game

Director Hwang *****-hyuk said: “Gi-hun’s endeavor to find out who these people are and why they do what they do is the core story of season two.”

Also returning is the ******-masked mysterious Front Man, who oversees the games, and Hwang Jun-***, the police detective that broke into the games last season to search for his missing brother.

*****-hyuk previously said he felt “a lot of pressure” on how to make season two “even better” after the show’s runaway success.
