With the whole world raving about Squid Game Season 2, Netflix chose to enlighten fans with a New Year's surprise by dropping a big clue on Squid Game Season 3!

In the short teaser released by Netflix via all social media platforms, they officially announce a new character; Chul-Su. 

But who is Chul-Su?

The clip shows both Young-Hee and Chul-Su as they make their entrance into the next season of the games. 

Fans may be quite familiar with Young-Hee from previous seasons and may have gotten a glimpse of Chul-Su at the end credits scene of the second season, but what does this mean for the upcoming season?

  
It is said that the Korean doll pair is quite popular among children (a common trait in the show), and its Western equivalent can be tied to the nursery rhyme pair Jack and Jill, who were used to teach children about morals and life lessons.

These figures taught students basic skills like reading and writing as well as appropriate behavior. They were also featured in school textbooks. 

These characters were part of the childhood of many South Koreans who grew up in the 1990s.

However, this may not be good news for the participants because the Jack and Jill duo from the childhood rhyme don't have a happy ending. 

A few online fans have hypothesized that the following round will have something to do with the nursery rhyme. With the remaining players following the major uprising, this more deadly variation of the Red Light, Green Light game has a more ominous air.

    
With Young-Hee's new look, fans are ready! The new season is set to premiere some time later this year, release date soon to be announced by Netflix.
