But several fans have noticed a subtle Chekhov's gun moment in the first season that gives an even clearer picture. That's a great cliffhanger that gives just enough of a hint of where Season 2 is headed.

By the end of 'Squid Game' Season 1, Gi-hun has become disillusioned and disgusted by the whole affair, and the finale ends with him vowing to take down the game and its wealthy organizers. The series follows Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), an everyman who's down on his luck until he's invited to participate in a series of deadly children's games along with 455 other people, all for a big cash prize. Take the first season of 'Squid Game,' the Korean dark survival series that became Netflix's top show this week. If you spend enough time immersed in the world of movies and TV, you'll start seeing Chehkov's guns everywhere. So for example, if you put a gun onstage in act one, it had better go off before the play is over, or else the audience will feel cheated. Taken 2 Images: Liam Neeson Snaps Necks, Aims Guns, Rides Trains. Liam Neeson will soon have made major appearances in three films released this year (The Grey, Wrath of the Titans and this weeks Battleship).However, the fan-fave Irishmans most-anticipated vehicle, Taken 2, has yet to hit the scene. It's a principle in storytelling attributed to playwright Anton Chekhov, and it basically means that stories should only include details that are essential to the plot.

If you're a film pedant like us, perhaps you've already heard the term Chekhov's gun.
