Spoilers ahead for Squid Game Season 3!
When Squid Game first dropped on Netflix, it took the world by storm—brutal games, wild twists, and that creepy doll haunted our nightmares for months. Now, with Season 3 wrapping up the series, fans expected a jaw-dropping finale… but instead, we got an ending that felt more confusing than satisfying.
Sure, there were emotional moments (RIP, Gi-hun), but the finale left so many loose ends. Was this intentional? A setup for a spin-off? Or just rushed writing? Let’s break down the biggest unanswered questions still bugging fans.
1. How Did the Squid Game Even Start?
We still don’t know the origins of this deadly competition. Who came up with it? Why kids’ games? Why the creepy masks? Fans were hoping for a deep dive into the lore, but nope—just more mystery. Maybe Hwang Dong-hyuk’s saving it for a prequel?

2. What Was Cate Blanchett Doing There?
Yep, that was actually Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett in the finale, playing a recruiter. Her cameo felt random, but that last line—“The Korean version is over”—hinted at an American Squid Game spin-off. Are we getting a U.S. remake? Or something even darker?
3. Did Anyone Actually Win?
Gi-hun sacrificed himself for Jun-hee’s baby (who technically “won”), but then… the island got bombed? Cut to six months later, and the game’s still a secret? So, did the Front Man just… walk away with the cash? What was the point?
4. What Happened to Jun-ho?
After finally finding the island and seeing his brother (the Front Man) in action, Jun-ho’s big investigation ended with him floating in the water post-explosion. Then, boom—time jump. He’s alive, has the baby and the money, and… that’s it? No justice? No showdown? So anticlimactic.

5. Where Did the VIPs Go?
These rich creeps were the worst part of the show—watching people die like it’s a sport. But when the Front Man ordered the evacuation, the VIPs just… vanished. Did they escape? Get killed? The show didn’t even bother to explain.
Was the Ending Supposed to Be Unsatisfying?
Some fans think the vague ending was intentional—maybe to leave room for spin-offs or movies. Others think the writers just wrote themselves into a corner. Either way, after three seasons of wild twists, the finale felt weirdly… flat.
What do you think? Was this a fitting end, or did Squid Game fumble its last move? Let us know your theories! And if Netflix does drop an American version, let’s hope it answers at least some of these questions.
