  • The finale, titled ‘Humans Are&’, leaves its meaning ambiguous, and the universe expands with Cate Blanchett recruiting American players for a U.S. version, signaling potential new directions.
  • The season concludes Gi-hun’s story with his vow to dismantle the operation, marking the series’ end after three intense installments while suggesting future spin-offs remain possible.
