Netflix may have accidentally revealed the release date for Squid Game season 3. In a now-deleted teaser video, Netflix Korea reportedly confirmed June 27 to be the release date of the highly anticipated third season of the popular show. The video, which was briefly available on YouTube, showed Young-hee, the robot from the “Red Light, Green Light” game, facing off against a new robot character, Chul-soo. One of viewers who saw the alleged teaser was even able to take screenshots and share them on social media platform X (earlier Twitter). These screenshots have sparked speculation among fans about a new game in the upcoming season. While Netflix has not officially confirmed the date, fans have already started anticipating the return of the popular Korean drama series.
