He also mentioned his meeting with South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol and actor Lee Jung Jae, the lead actor in 'Squid Game,' highlighting Netflix's dedication to the Korean creative industry.

CEO Ted Sarandos also visited the set of 'Squid Game 2,' praising the scale and creativity of the production. He noted that the new games showcased on the set would offer an entertainment experience unique to Korean content, echoing the vision of director Hwang Dong Hyuk.
