«Son Gi-hun, who vowed revenge at the end of the first season, returns and joins the game again. Will he be able to achieve revenge?» teased Dong-hyuk. «The Frontman this time also doesn’t seem like an easy opponent. The intense clash between their two worlds will continue until the finale of season 3, which will be presented to you next year».
