Netflix edited out a real phone number from Squid Game after it caused thousands of prank calls to a woman in South Korea. The woman could not change her number due to business reasons. In season 2, careful measures were taken to avoid repeating the mistake.

After beginning where the last season left off, a year after the games ended, Season 2 then jumps two years into the future and follows Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), aka Player 456

While some of the locations and games of Squid Game Season 2 are (mostly) the same ones we saw in Season 1, like “Red Light Green Light,” “Ddjaki,” and the midnight battle-ready group sleeping quarters, others are new to the season.
