Netflix has responded to backlash it received following the release of its latest trailer for season two of hit TV series Squid Game. The streaming platform was flooded with complaints after viewers spotted a distinct lack of diversity in the teaser trailer for the South Korean thriller's second instalment.
During Netflix TUDUM: Global Fan Event last week, it was confirmed that Lee Jung-Jae would reprise his lead role as Seong Gi-hun, alongside Lee Byung-hun as Front Man, Wi Ha-joon as police detective Jun-ho and Gong Yoo as the Recruiter.
It was also revealed that the much anticipated release would introduce new characters, played by Unlocked's Yim Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, The Glory's Park Sung-hoon and Yang Dong-geun. However, there is yet to be a woman confirmed in the cast, sparking backlash online.
