Squid Game season 3 fan theories and predictions: Three major deaths and a possible Frontman rebellion predicted, read here

Squid Game Season 3 fan theories and predictions: Netflix finally dropped the trailer for the third and final season of Squid Game, and fans have wasted no time jumping into theory mode. With the show set to release on June 27, social media is flooded with predictions and some truly heartbreaking guesses about what¡¯s to come. From character deaths to a possible rebellion, here are three of the most talked-about theories floating around right now.

Jun Hee¡¯s tragic ending and Myung Gi¡¯s redemption arc

One of the most gut-wrenching Squid Game season 3 theories centers around Kim Jun Hee, played by Jo Yuri. She¡¯s player 222, a pregnant woman who entered the games out of desperation after losing everything to a failed crypto investment and the sudden disappearance of her partner, player 333, Lee Myung Gi (played by Im Si Wan). Though Jun Hee didn¡¯t choose to face off with Myung Gi, the two end up in the same deadly arena.

According to fan discussions on Reddit and X, Jun Hee will either die while giving birth or during one of the later games. This would leave Myung Gi not only grieving but also responsible for raising their child alone. The theory suggests this emotional blow will become a turning point for Myung Gi¡¯s character, forcing him to confront the real human cost of the Squid Game and step up in ways he never did before.

In June we will be able to verify whether the squid game leak from Chinese websites are accurate.They were first leaked late last year. This isn't theory from people on reddit,it's from Chinese sources.I translated the info myself and posted it on X in January before deleting it pic.twitter.com/2MX6sLmBtN

Player 007¡¯s death might already be confirmed

Park Yong Swik, aka player 007, is another name being tossed around in death predictions. Played by Yang Dong Geun, Yong Swik is a gambler who enters the games to pay off heavy debts. His mother, player 149 (Jang Geum-ja), joins the deadly tournament too, hoping to protect her son.

What has sparked the theory that he dies is a brief shot in the trailer. In it, his mother is seen crying in what appears to be total devastation. It's fast, but enough for fans to take it as a possible confirmation that her son doesn¡¯t make it.

The Frontman could be ready to burn it all down

Perhaps the most intense theory of all involves the Frontman, played by Lee Byung Hun. Until now, he¡¯s been portrayed as this cold and calculative human with no emotions left, as he remains the face of the game¡¯s operation. For the first time, viewers caught a glimpse of emotion in his eyes. And fans think they know why.

According to one particularly dark theory, this new side of Frontman is unveiled after Jun Hee gives birth to her baby. In a haunting moment at the end of the trailer, the sound of a baby crying can be heard. Some fans believe Jun Hee manages to give birth successfully, only for the baby to be shot moments later. The voice of the game announcer reportedly declares, ¡°Unidentified Player Eliminated,¡± leading to a guard committing the unthinkable act.

Why would this affect the Frontman? His backstory includes the loss of his own child and pregnant wife. Seeing this tragedy repeat could break something in him. That¡¯s where the theory escalates, as fans predict he will finally snap, turning on the VIPs, burning the island down, and possibly ending the game for good.

If this theory holds, the final season may not just be a fight for survival but a full rebellion from within.

Do you think these predictions will come true, or is Netflix setting us up for something even wilder? Only time will tell.
