‘Squid Game’ Season 3 Delivers One Last Devastating Blow and a Shocking Path Forward: TV Review
Netflix's mega-popular series ends with 'Squid Game' 3 in a worthy conclusion that wraps everything up and leaves the door open for just a bit more.
Though some Season 2 fan-favorites die in the most crushing ways, it’s the arrival of Kim Jun-he’s (Jo Yu-ri) newborn baby at the end of Episode 2, “The Starry Night,” that shifts the course of the final games and raises the stakes to a level that hasn’t been seen previously. In deep mental turmoil because of the games, his inability to beat the Front Man and his own personal failings, Gi-hun begins to view Jun-he’s child as an opportunity for redemption. However, when the VIPs decide to use the baby as a pawn for their own cruelty and amusement (a direct allegory for the relationship between the ultra-wealthy and the helpless in our present-day society), Gi-hun comes to realize that not only are the most innocent among us inherently vulnerable, greed and monstrosity are boundless especially when $45.6 billion is on the line.
