BTS's V Rumored to Join 'Squid Game' Season 3: Fans Speculate Amidst Hints and Diplomacy

BTS fans and enthusiasts are abuzz with excitement as rumors swirl that Kim Taehyung, also known as V, may join the cast of the hit Netflix series "Squid Game" for its highly anticipated third season. This speculation is fueled by a combination of subtle hints and seemingly coincidental timing, including V's recent social media interactions and the release of his solo album near the scheduled premiere date of the show.

Fans have been scrutinizing V's recent online activities and noting that he "Liked" a post by Lee Jung-jae, the show's lead actor. V has also expressed admiration for the series through various interviews, further fueling the speculation. The coincidence of his solo album release date coinciding with the rumored release date of "Squid Game" Season 3 - June 27, 2025 - has led some fans to believe that V might be joining the show. Both Lee Jung-jae and Wi Ha-joon, who have starred in Season 2, have responded to questions about V's potential involvement with coy remarks, leaving fans eagerly awaiting official confirmation or denial. Lee Jung-jae's response of "I can't say anything about that," specifically, has been interpreted as a hint by the enthusiastic fans, while Wi Ha-joon chose to keep quiet, opting for a "no comment."

This speculation is not unwarranted, considering V's acting background and his previous role in the K-drama "Hwarang." The K-pop star would undoubtedly bring a high level of international attention to the series if confirmed to be part of the cast. The show has had a history of keeping its cast announcements under wraps, generating anticipation and excitement as each new season approaches. The controversy surrounding past castings is a testament to the high level of interest in the show and the diverse cast, which in season 2 included members of gal groups IZ*ONE and ZE:A.

As fans continue to wait with bated breath for confirmation or denial, one thing is clear: the star-studded cast of "Squid Game" is expected to deliver another intense and gripping season. Whether or not V joins the cast, fans of the show and K-pop are eager to see what the future holds for the series and its talented actors.
