This marks the second time the South Korean hit has earned this distinction, having previously won in 2022 for its groundbreaking first season.
That same year, lead actor Lee Jung Jae also secured Best Actor in a Drama Series for his role.
The ceremony took place on Feb. 7 in Santa Monica, California, after being rescheduled from its original Jan. 12 date due to the Los Angeles wildfires.
“Squid Game 2” triumphed over a strong lineup of nominees, including last year’s winner “Pachinko,” as well as “Acapulco,” “Citadel: Honey Bunny,” “La Máquina,” “The Law According to Lidia Poët,” “My Brilliant Friend” and “Senna.”
The second season of Squid Game ended on a suspenseful note, leaving fans with unanswered questions about the fate of its characters.
Fortunately, the wait won’t be long – Netflix has confirmed that the third and final season will premiere on June 27, promising to deliver the much-anticipated conclusion to the gripping series.
