The cliffhanger ending of Squid Game Season 2 has spawned several fan theories regarding Season 3, and Lee Byung-hun, who portrays the Front Man on the series, has come out to address the three most famous ones. This includes a theory suggesting that Lee Jung-jae’s Seong Gi-hun is Oh Il-nam’s son. Now, Byung-hun shared his two cents on the speculations surrounding Season 3, providing more context to play with until the next installment drops.

Lee Byung-hun on whether three Squid Game Season 3 theories are true

The actor recently appeared in an interview alongside Lee Jung-jae, responding to three major conjectures about Squid Game Season 3.

On First We Feast’s Hot Ones Versus, Lee Byung-Hun addressed fan theories, including whether Gi-Hun is the son of Oh Il-nam and if the Front Man could be posing as an undercover cop. The South Korean actor came across another postulation that suggested that the Squid Game island could actually be a moving ship.

According to the rules of the Hot Ones Versus show, interviewees have the option to either answer the question correctly or consume the super spicy hot wings presented to them. Upon hearing the three theories, Byung-hun replied, “Honestly, none were correct.”

However, Jung-jae instantly countered his co-star’s response by saying, “Then eat.” He then added, “You essentially refused to answer,” suggesting that Byung-hun did not answer the fan questions honestly. The Front Man actor then confirmed his play about hiding facts about Squid Game Season 3 by stating, “So that means that I have to spoil the ending to Season 3 right here? I mean, if that’s what you want, I’ll choose to do that instead.”

Byung-hun ultimately turned the conversation on its head by saying, “The ending for Season 3 is… Front Man will… to your character… will take off his mask and say… I’m your father,” jokingly referring to Darth Vader’s iconic line from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.

While Lee Byun-hun failed to confirm anything about Squid Game Season 3, his hesitation to commit to his answer suggests that one of the theories might just stand true. Fans will just have to wait until Squid Game Season 3 premieres later this year to see how the conclusive chapter of Gi-Hun’s arc will pan out.
