Reagan To is the 13-year-old star whose voice has become synonymous with the English dub of the programme - with her singsong "Red light, green light" providing the backdrop for the shocking first game in series one.
She took to Facebook recently to share a Reel which showed her voicing the character in series one in 2021, season two in 2024 and season three this year.
"Thank you Squid Game for having me since 2021. Season 1, 2, and 3 - the voice of the Squid Game doll," Reagan wrote alongside the video.
This time around, the most famous song from the series is arguably Hide and Seek - where she sings "Hide hide, it's time to play, don't let your hair give you away".
In a post on her Instagram page, Reagan revealed it took her a whole two hours to get the song perfect.
"Fun fact: recorded for two hours for the hide and seek song," she wrote over the top of the Instagram video.
"Another Squid Game haunted song gets stuck in my head, sorry," Reagan added in the caption.
She was quickly praised in the comments section, with one writing: "It's too impressive that you've been doing it for 5 years and it's just getting better and better!"
"Loved the new season and the songssss," another praised.
"So amazing my friend!" a third added.

"This is so cool - I love your voice!" someone else said.
Reagan also voiced character Ga-Yeong in the English dub of Squid Game.
Others admitted that they'd finally figured out where they'd seen Reagan before.
She's also famous for her role in the TV show Young Sheldon, in which she starred as Mei-Tung - Sheldon's class competitor who he enlists to tutor him.
"Pain is the best teacher," she's famous for telling Sheldon, while rapping him on the knuckles with a pencil when he gets the answer wrong.
"Are you that girl from Young Sheldon?" one person asked in the comments on the Instagram.
"Yes!" Reagan replied.
The third season of Squid Game has broken records for Netflix, after becoming the biggest-ever TV launch for the streaming service - racking up more than 60.1 million views in its first three days of release.
As well as Squid Game and Young Sheldon, Reagan appeared in Jane the Virgin and voiced Big Girl Ember in Disney film Elemental.

Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Celebrity Gogglebox fans were not happy that Bez and Shaun were missing Credit: Channel 4 3 The duo have been mainstays on the show since 2019 Credit: Channel 4 Happy Mondays stars Shaun Ryder and Bez were one of the first celebrity pairings to sign up for the programme in 2019 and have appeared regularly ever since. But during the latest episode they were not featured - a move that left fans furious. As stars including Rylan and Roman Kemp sat down to tune into the best of this week's TV, fans could not help but flock to X to have their say on the missing pair.

Ronaldo's sister explains Jota funeral no-show in staunch defence of brother
Cristiano Ronaldo did not to attend Diogo Jota's funeral on Saturday and his sister, Katia Aveiro, has hit back at criticism of her brother's decision on social media Cristiano Ronaldo's sister, Katia Aveiro, has responded to criticism of her brother's decision not to attend Diogo Jota's funeral. Jota and his brother Andre tragically died in a car crash on Thursday and their funerals were held on Saturday. A number of Jota's teammates attended the service in Gondomar, near Porto, but Portugal captain Ronaldo decided not to make the journey as he was wary that his presence could overshadow the funeral. Ronaldo did receive some criticism over his decision and his sister has hit back in a series of posts on Instagram. On her story, Katia wrote: "When my father died. In addition to the pain of loss we had to deal with a flood of cameras and curious onlookers at the cemetery and everywhere we went. "And attention was not what it is today in terms of access... At no time were we (the children) able to leave the chapel; it was only possible at the time of the burial, such was the commotion. "At the funeral, there were presidents, coaches of the national team at the time, such as Luís Filipe Scolari, etc. I don't remember seeing any of them. And they certainly greeted me. The pain blinded me. "About pain/family and real support... You will never know what it means until you go through it. If someone sends me a message criticising anything my brother does, I will block it (completely ignore it), that is, they will only do it once. "It's getting tiring. The fanaticism. The criticism for nothing, I repeat nothing... Sick society... We all have families. "It is absurdly shameful to watch TV channels/commentators/social networks emphasising an absence (wise) rather than respectfully honouring the pain of a mutilated family destroyed by the loss of two brothers. I am even ashamed to watch. Regrettable. "And so the world goes... Society and opinion. Today they are worthless. They themselves have become bottomless pits. I feel sorry... And war is also like that. Believe me. Human evil is also a war. And every day we have to fight against it. And so it goes." Ronaldo did share an emotional tribute to Jota on social media, writing: "It doesn't make sense. We were just together in the national team, and you had just gotten married. To your family, your wife and your children, I send my condolences and wish them all the strength in the world. "I know you will always be with them. Rest in peace, Diogo and Andre. We will all miss you."

READ MORE ON SABRINA CARPENTER X-PRESSO How Sabrina Carpenter swapped Disney for controversy… from sex shock to affairs 'It is the place to be when staying in London.' Last month our sister column Bizarre revealed that Bey moved out of the plush hotel to make way for Mariah, who flew into London for Capital's Summertime Ball. The Crazy In Love singer was staying at the Corinthia's penthouses for her gigs at the Tottenham Stadium. Sabrina performed at BST Hyde Park last night and is due to take to the festival's Great Oak Stage tonight where she will be supported by singers Amber Mark, Olivia Dean and Clairo. And I have heard that the Espresso singer has been working hard to make sure her performance is flawless. An insider told me: 'Sabrina spent four days in Hyde Park last week rehearsing for her shows — that is the most an artist has ever dedicated to getting their set perfect.

FAREWELL SABBATH FOR OZZY 9 Ozzy Osbourne took to his throne as the Prince of Darkness for his final performance Credit: Getty OZZY OSBOURNE took to his throne as the Prince of Darkness for his final performance with Black Sabbath last night. The Iron Man hitmaker was joined by his original bandmates Tony Iommi, Terence 'Geezer' Butler and Bill Ward for the Back To The Beginning concert at Villa Park in the band's home town of Birmingham. Ozzy, who has publicly battled Parkinson's disease in recent years, perched with his cloak draped ceremoniously around him. He was supported by wife Sharon Osbourne. His son Jack Osbourne spoke ahead of the momentous gig. Asked if Ozzy was nervous, he said: 'I think it is every emotion. He is so excited about performing again and so excited about getting on stage. 'December 2018 was the last time he did a full gig – that is how long it has been. 'This is the reunion that normally only happens, sadly, at someone's funeral – but it is so great to be here. It is the history of heavy metal in one venue. That kind of sums it up. It is a rollercoaster. 'I think this is most likely going to be his last full performance. But he still intends to make music.' And in true Ozzy style, he did not hold back with his final look. Ozzy's tailor Sir Tom Baker told Biz on Sunday that he had designed a leather 19th-century frock coat with a two-and-a-half metre train for the music legend. Sir Tom, who spent weeks on the outfit, explained: 'It's very high shine – it looks like water. We decorated it with leather trimming and gold skull buttons. It has dramatic, ghoulish shoulders.' Meanwhile, punk rocker Yungblud said he was invited by Sharon Osbourne to sing at Villa Park in support of Ozzy. He told me: 'I've known Ozzy for years. Uncle Ozzy, man. He gave me a gold cross a couple of years ago. So I've given him back one in return. 'To be a close personal friend of his now, and to be a member of the family with him – he's my blood.' Sir Tom added: 'Ozzy and Sharon are lovely people. They are stronger than ever – she dotes on him. It's lovely to see. 'They seem to trust each other implicitly. She has a say over matters, but he is just as strong in the balance.' Yungblud, who performed a cover of Black Sabbath ballad Changes last night, added of the gig: 'It's an honour to be a part of it. Ozzy has been one of my idols since I was two.'

The pair were among the crowd at British Summer Time in London's Hyde Park watching Paul's girlfriend Gracie Abrams perform with US singer Noah Kahan. An onlooker said: 'Paul was cutting it fine as he rushed through and grabbed his ticket. 'He beelined to the VIP section to watch from the Diamond area.' Last week I revealed Paul was singing along to Gracie's set on Glastonbury's Other Stage alongside pal Daisy. Meanwhile, Lewis Capaldi made a surprise appearance on the Great Oak Stage on Friday night following his comeback at Worthy Farm last week. Lewis, who is No1 with his new single Survive, joined Noah for the latter's track Northern Attitude at Hyde Park. Festival season is still in full swing. JUNGLE KING IN TV BLOW 9 Former King of the Jungle Sam Thompson Credit: Getty SAM THOMPSON is not returning to the spin-off show I'm A Celebrity: Unpacked as a permanent presenter. Instead former King of the Jungle Sam, who was a mainstay last year alongside Joel Dommett and Kemi Rodgers, will get a guest stint. A source said: 'Sam isn't returning full time, but Joel and Kemi definitely are. 'Apparently there was a schedule issue, but he's still part of the ITV family – in fact he's a busy man. "He's got DNA Journey which is now on air and was recently announced as part of (new prank show) Celebrity Sabotage.' Sam's been unlucky in love, after splitting with Zara McDermott and then Samie Elishi. Hopefully, his bromance with Pete Wicks is still going strong. MARGOT AI ALERT MARGOT ROBBIE has revealed her fears about using AI in the film industry. The Barbie actress, who founded production company LuckyChap Entertainment with her husband Tom Ackerley in 2014, said at Glastonbury's Pilton Palais cinema tent: 'I think filmmakers using it as a tool to enhance their vision is the best version of it. 'I think the fact that it is progressing so much faster than anyone can keep up with – and to create any sort of rules around it – then it is going to cause problems in our industry.' CROCKED SAM SCRAPS EURO FESTIVAL DATES 9 Sam Fender has suffered a vocal haemorrhage Credit: Redferns SAM FENDER has been forced to pull out of his European festival tour due to a vocal haemorrhage. The Seventeen Going Under singer revealed that he received the devastating diagnosis after headlining the British Grand Prix Opening Concert at Silverstone on Friday night. He posted on Instagram after his performance: 'At the beginning of the week I got my voice checked by my ENT (ear, nose and throat) doctor and the cords were slightly swollen. 'After a few days' rest I was advised by my team that I was okay to perform. 'On stage at Silverstone I could feel that things were a lot harder than usual, I felt I needed to push a lot harder to sing – this is never a good sign. 'I've just been checked by my ENT again today, as I was concerned about it, and it's transpired that I have had a haemorrhage on one of my vocal cords.' Sam, who recently wrapped a huge UK summer stadium tour, has cancelled his upcoming performances at Rock Werchter in Belgium , Down The Rabbit Hole in The Netherlands, NOS Alive in Portugal and the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland. He added: 'I'm so sorry to everybody who is coming to those festivals with our show in mind. 'Our fans are the most important thing to us. 'I hate letting people down and I hate not being able to sing for weeks as it is my only real passion in life.' I hope you are back to feeling your best soon, Sam. ED'S TOP SONG FAILS TO SHAPE UP FOR HIM STREAMING service Apple Music has celebrated its tenth anniversary by crowning Ed Sheeran's 2017 hit Shape Of You as its most popular song, with more than 930 million plays. But Ed told Apple Music's Zane Lowe he has never considered it his best track. He said: 'I've never seen Shape Of You as that song for me, as the song that I will be remembered for. 'But it's weird – everywhere I go in the world, because we travel everywhere and we play everywhere, and we went to Bhutan recently, and that song kicked off there.' CAPITAL Radio host Will Manning has revealed that his wedding to girlfriend Georgia Haldenby will be filled with his favourite artists. He told Biz on Sunday: 'Mimi Webb is singing, Zak Abel and Tom Grennan.' The DJ, who recently released his latest track I Believe, will spin some tunes for his wedding guests at the Four Seasons in Hook, Hants, next month. STRICTLY star Tasha Ghouri has revealed that the BBC dance show has 'opened doors' for her career. The former Love Islander told me at the TRIC Awards in London: 'My demographic is bigger now, which is lovely. 'Strictly has definitely opened many more doors – especially with the BBC.' Tasha, who finished as runner-up last year, added: 'I have got some stuff coming up. 'I can't say, but it is super exciting.'
