Amid the anticipation for the next season, the post-credits scene of season 2, which many viewers may not have seen if they had skipped the credits, is piquing fans’ curiosity with the appearance of Younghee and the her boyfriend Cheolsoo in just three seconds.
In the video, Younghee and Cheolsoo are facing each other when the participants appear. It is considered a decisive scene that suggests that another game will begin despite Ki-hoon’s attempt to stop it. According to some rumors, the game in this scene will be “group jump rope”.

Before the release of the second season, director Hwang Dong-hyuk had already confirmed: “Younghee’s boyfriend Cheolsoo will appear.”
In response, netizens commented: “It’s so interesting to see Cheolsoo’s appearance, but it’s a little scary,” “Isn’t the group rope skipping game too difficult?”, “I can’t believe there will be a group rope skipping with Younghee and Cheol-soo spinning the rope” ”, “Playing this game alone is already scary”, etc.
Meanwhile, director Hwang also revealed that the third season will premiere in the summer or fall of next year.
