In a special clip released by Netflix on September 19, 2024, actors Lee Jung Jae, Wi Ha Joon, and Lee Byung Hun engaged with fans by discussing intriguing theories about the new season.

Netflix Releases Special Video Featuring Cast
Netflix released a short clip featuring Lee Jung Jae, Wi Ha Joon, and Lee Byung Hun, where the cast members read out popular fan theories. The actors had fun discussing the ideas while keeping fans guessing about the accuracy of these theories.
Wi Ha Joon’s Character Turning Evil?
One of the fan theories proposes that Wi Ha Joon’s character—who played a cop searching for his brother in the first season—will take a darker turn. According to the theory, Wi Ha Joon’s character becomes evil and eventually takes on the role of the host of the deadly game. Though Wi Ha Joon acknowledges the creativity behind this idea, he doesn’t confirm or deny if this twist will happen, keeping the mystery intact.
Lee Byung Hun’s Dismissal of a Major Fan Theory
Another theory suggests that Lee Byung Hun’s character, the Front Man who oversees the games, will become one of the masked individuals and pass on his role to Seong Gi Hun (played by Lee Jung Jae). However, Lee Byung Hun quickly dismisses this idea, calling it “imaginative but far from the truth.”
Lee Jung Jae’s Pink Hair and the Pink Soldiers Connection
Fans have speculated that Lee Jung Jae’s character Seong Gi Hun might join the ranks of the pink soldiers in Season 2 due to his new pink hair seen at the end of the first season. The cast, however, leaves this theory up in the air, adding to the ongoing mystery surrounding Gi Hun’s next move.
New Cast Members and Speculations About Gi Hun’s Daughter
Some fans believe that new cast members Park Gyu Young and Jo Yu Ri will play important roles, with one theory even suggesting that one of them could be the adult daughter of Seong Gi Hun. The actors didn’t confirm these assumptions, but their reactions suggest that fans might be on to something.
