Squid Game season 2 has been trending once again online since it came out recently. A very small mistake in the show that viewers picked up on was when a cameraman was caught on-screen by mistake during an intense scene. That particular moment has since been immortalized in a video that went viral on social media.
In episode 7 of the show, at 22 minutes and 39 seconds, during a scene of the contestants in the chaos with gun fire, a crew member dressed in black can clearly be seen. The camera moves, and you see one guy off to another side, capturing the scene from a different angle. It was quite humorous and shocking, with viewers commenting that now that crew member is going to be fired for sure!

Fans headed over to forums like X to share their thoughts. A lot of the comments expressed humor at the whole gaffe, with one person saying “Bro is definitely losing his job after that one.”
It’s clear people are going with the fun vibe, even if they’re talking about a screw-up.
Users on social media were quick to point out the difficulties editors and other crew must face during marathon hours. One user speculated it was the editor at the end of the night who may missed the mistake in what was likely a hectic scene.
This is not the first time, nor the first high-profile show, to let such an error slide. In 2019, HBO’s Game of Thrones was heavily ridiculed when a modern coffee cup from Starbucks was accidentally left in a scene set in medieval times.
Looking further ahead, a third season of Squid Game is in the works. While there’s no official date just yet, the expectation is that it will be released in June 2025. A teaser gave the game away, leading to a lot of anticipation among the show’s fans who are desperate for more.
Yet despite the bumps along the way, the show is still a popular trend on a number of social media platforms, demonstrating a professionalism and adaptiveness on the part of the producers and the incredible enthusiasm from its fans.
