Let’s take a look at their comments, maybe what could come with it, and all the thrill surrounding Kim Taehyung.
The buzz forming around Kim Taehyung and Squid Game
Kim Taehyung is one of the most loved BTS members because he is not primarily a singer and dancer but also an actor.

Speculation began when fans noticed Tae’s interactions with a few cast members of Squid Game at events. As if that were not enough to really set the rumor mills spinning, Taehyung’s global fame and acting skills made people consider him as someone perfect for an extremely dramatic and intense series.
What Did Lee Jung Jae and Wi Ha Joon Say?
During the recent press event for Squid Game 2, lead actor Lee Jung Jae and supporting star Wi Ha Joon were asked whether Kim Taehyung will join the cast. Both refused to confirm or deny the rumors, though their answers may just add to fan anticipation.
Lee Jung Jae: The Emmy-winning actor nimbly avoided the issue, saying, “Kim Taehyung is incredibly good. It will be great to come up with him. But let’s wait and see what the producers decide.”
Wi Ha Joon: He added, “For me, a fan of BTS, having Kim Taehyung in Squid Game would be great. The creators have that prerogative, but I know he would give something special to it.”
Fans were now guessing if this is just a great tease to the public or truly something diplomatic.
Why Kim Taehyung Would Be An Ideal Candidate For Squid Game

3. Diversity itself:
- If he’s either a contestant or the one whose darker agenda unfolds, he could actually unleash this show anew.

- Beyond very well, it would open two doors—the K-pop culture and the K-drama culture—and create culture without boundaries.
Thus, the Rumors and Fan Reactions
From Twitter to Instagram, the comments by fans regarding the joining of Kim Taehyung in the Squid Game get so trending that they flew high as the trending hashtags: #TaehyungInSquidGame and #VInSquidGame.

Theatrical Experience: Kim Taehyung’s performance in Hwarang is an indication of his well-deserved talent in bringing out difficult emotions and making them available to him to use on the Squid Game set.
Global Superstar: With BTS having mass global audiences, Taehyung getting into the cast would definitely add millions more to the series.
Flexibility: Taehyung’s versatility and charm could add a fresh new shade to the series—either as a member of the contestants or someone who harbors far darker motives.
Cultural Significance: It would take it a step ahead in fusing K-pop and K-dramas into making a status of something beyond cultural norms. Challenges
and Potentialities
However, the whole idea of Kim Taehyung being part of Squid Game is fascinating, and there can be some difficulties:
1. Time Conflicts:
- Being a member of BTS, Taehyung has an extremely packed schedule, including music releases, tours, and solo projects. This makes it difficult to coordinate his schedule with that of Squid Game’s.
2. Creative Direction:
- The creators of the show will have to come up with a role that will fit into the narrative without much hassle and would use Taehyung’s talent.
Despite all these things, there are a lot of possibilities. Whether a protagonist, an evil antagonist, or a completely new mysterious character, Taehyung’s presence would certainly raise the status of the series.
What does the future hold for Squid Game and Kim Taehyung?
The fans are expected to wait for the official confirmation regarding the next season of Squid Game, and now it is said that the production of the sequel is already in progress with new fantastic turns and more intense drama. Kim Taehyung, on the other hand, is doing great work in his music career, and he hinted that he would try his luck in acting opportunities.
The joint efforts of Taehyung and the Squid Game makers are a dream collaboration for many. Even if the combination does not happen, the excitement around it has already brought waves into the cases of crossover appeal between K-pop and K-drama.
