The series is directed by Han Jae-rim and stars Ryu Jun Yeol, Chun Woo Hee, Park Jung Min, Lee Yul Eum, Park Hae Jun, Lee Joo Young, Moon Jeong Hee and Bae Seong Woo.
2nd season of “Round 6”
At the beginning of the year, Netflix confirmed the release of the second season of “Round 6” in 2024, but did not release a date.
In the sequel's first teaser, Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) receives a mysterious call and declares, “I'm going to find you. Whatever it takes.”
At the end of the first season, the series' protagonist becomes rich and decides to go visit his daughter in the United States. However, before boarding, he sees the same salesman who convinced him to participate in the bloodthirsty game trying to recruit a new participant.
Gi-hun, with the game card in his hands again, calls the phone number and says he will try to stop the game from happening again — leaving the cliffhanger for the second season.
