Netflix’s number 1 series, Squid Game, has been a hot topic on social media ever since it was released in September.

Squid Game creator, Hwang Dong-hyuk, and stars of the series, Lee Jung-Jae, Jung Hoyeon and Park Hae Soo, attended the Los Angeles screening and Q&A at NeueHouse on Monday.

The South Korean drama had the most views in the first 30 days of a show on the streaming site, drawing in an additional 4.4 million subscribers to Netflix. The series, dubbed in English from Korean, is currently the most-watched show in 90 countries.

At the event, Hwang confirmed the burning question that most fans asked themselves upon binging the series: will there be a season 2? Hwang eased minds with the announcement that fans should expect another season of Squid Game, however, they shouldn’t expect it any time in the near future.

Not only has Netflix benefitted from the ripple this series has created, but other companies like Amazon and Walmart have increased sales with demand in Squid Game Halloween costumes and other apparel.
