On Friday, June 23, reports claimed that Park Gyu-young and former IZ*ONE member Jo Yuri will star in the upcoming season, reports aceshowbiz.com.

Gyu-young allegedly is set to play a female lead role in the highly anticipated second season, while there's no word on Yuri's character. Netflix, however, has yet to officially confirm the reports.

A source from Netflix Korea, meanwhile, responded to the rumours with a rather vague comment. "We ask for your understanding that we cannot currently confirm whether Jo Yuri and Park Gyu-young will appear in 'Squid Game 2'," the source stated.

Representatives of Yuri's agency WAKEONE Entertainment and Gyu-young's agency Saram Entertainment also echoed the sentiment.

"It is information we cannot confirm. We ask for your understanding," they said.

Gyu-young's credits include 'It's Okay Not to Be Okay', 'A Good Day to Be a Dog' and 'Dali & Cocky Prince' among others. She will also appear on Netflix's series 'Celebrity'.

As for Yuri, she received high praise for her stellar acting skills after she made a special appearance on 'Work Later, Drink Now 2'.

Should the rumour be true, Gyu-young and Yuri will join the newly-announced cast members Im Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Park Sung-hoon and Yang Dong Geun.

Lee Jung-jae, Lee Byung-hun, Wi Ha-joon and Gong Yoo will be returning for the sophomore season of the popular show.
