South Korean hit show Squid Game finally slammed the brakes with Season 3 on June 27, 2025. Three seasons of chaos, and it’s done. Hwang Dong-hyuk had us all glued to our screens since day one, but this last batch of episodes had people clamouring for closure.

Squid Game season 3 wastes zero time. We’re right back with Gi-hun, aka Player 456, who’s basically at rock bottom. The guy’s been through hell: failed rebellions, dead friends, the works. But he dives straight back into the games, dead set on blowing up the whole organization from the inside.

However, the games this time are absolutely savage. First up, Hide and Seek gets a Squid Game makeover, with players split into red and blue teams. Betrayals left and right, people snapping just to survive, and the violence is somehow even worse than before.

Gi-hun’s out here making decisions he’ll probably regret for, well, forever. Meanwhile, Front Man (In-ho) brings in a fresh group of VIPs to watch the carnage. And his brother Jun-ho is still poking around totally missing the snitch hiding in plain sight.

Things keep spiraling. Trust falls apart, contestants drop dead, and the whole plot just keeps tightening. By the end, you’ve got Gi-hun’s revenge quest, Front Man trying to keep the circus in order, and Jun-ho’s investigation all crashing together.

The last game features huge stone towers, players dangling on the edge—literally and emotionally. Gi-hun gets slammed with a difficult choice: either he sacrifices himself or lets someone innocent bite it. He picks the selfless route, but the show leaves the fate of the games hanging.

People are losing it over the finale and the memes started rolling in ever since. Someone’s clowning on the plot twists, the body count, or Gi-hun’s absolute inability to catch a break.

No matter how you feel about the ending, you can’t deny it: Squid Game went out swinging, and people can’t stop talking about it.


Best Squid Game memes so far

Let’s be real, those foreign VIPs were a total trainwreck. We couldn’t tell if we were watching a soap opera dubbed by interns or just some weird AI video. The acting was so awkward we almost got secondhand embarrassment just sitting there.

Guilty as charged. But why did we all get so worked up about people dying when that’s the entire point of the show? Still, we are not about to give them a free pass for bumping Player 120 (Hyun-ju, my poor heart). Some things just sting, you know?

That poor billionaire baby (no pun intended) had it rough from the jump. She was basically bundled up in Gi-hun’s jacket like some burrito, while the dude was out there throwing punches and literally killing people. Not exactly your standard welcome-to-the-world moment.

Alright, Hwang Jun-ho, appreciate the wild goose chase, man. Dude’s basically Sherlock from parallel universe. And after all that running around, he just wanted to hit up Hwang In-ho with a “Why?” You could’ve just slid into his DMs.

Player 388 legit picked up a shoe to square up—what is this, a mom fight? Dude definitely spent his childhood dodging flying sandals at home.

And there you have it—classic irony. You set out to make a show about the horrors of capitalism, and now you’re selling Squid Game merch. Congrats, you played yourself.

Honestly, looks like the American Squid Game spin-off’s already on the case. We could see folks playing ddakji in random U.S. streets. Yeah, ddakji—right there in America.

When those credits hit and the baby won… are you kidding? The games are still chugging along and then that little tease about Squid Game America? Come on.

If you think this poster’s bad, wait ‘til you see how they wrapped things up.

Playing ddakji in America is gonna be wild but we are just here for the memes.

Squid Game was a bit of a rollercoaster. Some parts slapped, some bits kinda dropped the ball, and then there was that weird teaser for…whatever’s next. Still, everybody ended up talking about it, so mission accomplished.
