Squid Game actress Park Gyu Young has found herself at the center of controversy after hastily deleting a behind-the-scenes photo that fans believe may have revealed a major plot point for the series’ upcoming third season.
On January 8th, Park shared a photo on her Instagram showing herself in the signature pink guard uniform, taking a break between scenes. However, eagle-eyed fans quickly spotted what appeared to be Lee Jin Wook in the adjacent seat, sparking widespread speculation about potential spoilers for the next installment.
The controversy stems from Season 2’s ambiguous handling of Lee’s character, where a scene showed a guard shooting in his direction, suggesting his possible demise. However, with his death never explicitly confirmed and his prominent billing in the main cast, the leaked photo has sparked theories that Season 2’s apparent death scene may have been misdirection, potentially revealing Lee’s true role as part of the game’s organizing forces rather than merely a contestant.
Following the global success of Season 1, production has reportedly implemented rigorous security protocols, including signed agreements even for reporters at press events, screenings, and set visits to prevent plot leaks.
With the series reaching #1 in 93 countries within just two days of release, fan backlash against Park’s potential spoiler continues to mount. As speculation swirls around the swift deletion of the post, industry watchers and fans alike are waiting to see how Park will address this situation, particularly given the possible impact on one of Netflix’s most closely guarded properties.
