Picking up from the gripping conclusion of Season 2, the third and final season delves into the critical choices faced by Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung-jae) amidst "overwhelming despair."

"Gone is the rainbow-hued track of Season 2’s six-legged pentathlon; in its place, a vividly swirling flower-pattern floor ominously foreshadows the cutthroat finale to come," Netflix stated. The poster also teases the return of Young-hee and her companion Cheol-su, whose silhouettes suggest even more brutal games on the horizon.
