It can be said that it does not contain only Korean content, but raises a
problem about the reality that all mankind is contemplating and suffering.

Second, it is a Korean characteristic that only Korean content has. The

Korean Wave (Hallyu) has gained worldwide popularity due to its influence despite the plagiarism controversy
because it is similar to several Japanese films. And the interest in Korean films was growing with the movie
Parasite recently, thus its public attention could be accelerated. Also the Korean narrative of the movie Minari

took root deeply in the world through the hardships of the first and second generations of immigrants. We
can understand the same reason in Pachinko which is produced by Apple TV and amazes the world. Even
though most of the successful Korean Wave (Hallyu) films were planned for domestic use, they were loved by
overseas fans due to their perfection and universality.

Thus it is now distributed and consumed in markets around the world and it has become more powerful by
YouTube. The driving force for its success is characters, stories and social justice. Director Hwang
Dong-hyuk said that Squid Game season 2 will be introduced in 2023 or 2024 and he just started the

script and has 3 pages' idea in an interview with Vanity Fair. Thus humans will be put into the test
through that game again and he said asked "Is it really possible to connect human to each other?"
Squid Game season 2 on Netflix is poised to be loved by the world with a more dramatic and
persuasive story than season.
