On June 29, Netflix announced the cast for the much-anticipated follow-up season to its record-breaking K-Drama series, Squid Game.

Among the second season’s cast, news of one actor’s casting, in particular, stunned netizens — T.O.P.

Not long after Netflix’s announcement, Dispatch alleged that it was Lee Jung Jae who had campaigned for T.O.P’s inclusion. In an exclusive report, Dispatch alleged that Lee Jung Jae was heavily involved in the recruitment of T.O.P while citing the two celebrity’s close relationship.

When Dispatch asked T.O.P’s representatives if he auditioned for the role, they were told that nothing could be stated. Netflix also did not respond to Dispatch’s request for a statement.

We cannot say anything other than the official statement from Netflix.

Netizens had an overwhelmingly negative reaction to the cast and T.O.P’s inclusion.

  • “Wow…”
  • “This suddenly feels like a B-grade movie… The level just dropped all the way down.”
  • “Wasn’t the former YG member retired?”
  • “Why are they using someone who isn’t even good at acting?”
  • “I’ve lost all interest because of T.O.P… Although I’ll check it out once it is released, I’m not really expecting great things.”
  • “Why are they keep using a druggie?”
  • “I think he said he wasn’t going to be promoting in Korea, but I guess he was referring to his idol career.”
  • “At this rate, Yoo Ah In will star in Squid Game 3 when it comes out, LOL.”
  • “Wow…”
  • “Do you want to use him in the midst of Yoo Ah In’s controversy? I’ll never watch this.”
  • “This is crazy, f@ck.”
