Stars of Netflix's mega-hit series "Squid Game" on Monday lamented South Korea's ongoing political turmoil since last week's shocking martial law order by President Yoon Suk Yeol but said they were confident the country will overcome the crisis.

The show's highly anticipated second season premiered in Seoul ahead of its release on December 26 just as South Korea reels from the fallout of Yoon's botched martial law attempt.
