Little AU Where It's Sae-byeok That Runs Into Gi-hun In Seoul In S1E2, Instead Of Il-nam, And Gi-hun

has anyone written this bc I would absolutely write this

Little AU where it's Sae-byeok that runs into Gi-hun in Seoul in S1E2, instead of Il-nam, and Gi-hun gets to apologize for hassling her about the money and she shares her Ramen with him. He asks her if she's old enough to drink and she scoffs and pours herself some soju. They play the bottle cap game.

They talk about the games.

Sae-byeok says she's going back. She reluctantly sums up her situation, without any real details, and Gi-hun returns the show of trust by telling his story too.

They make their agreement early. If one gets through it and the other doesn't, they'll help each other’s family.

She's even more of a daughter figure to him in the games and her death is that much more devastating.

She could never be a saint, but she thought she could be a martyr if they killed her quick.

actually no there is an egregious mistype and that’s thanos being typed as an ESTP. literally every single impulsive antagonist gets typed as that and it’s so annoying, bro has zero Ti whatsoever and is extremely clearly using Fi-Te

deok-su and nam-gyu are examples of actual ESTPs where you can clearly see Ti usage, and tertiary Fe (more in deok-su’s case)

the only thing they have in common with thanos is nonexistent Ni lmao

re: prev post, I’m actually on the ‘sang-woo is an ENTJ’ side of the discussion on that and I’m not 100% sold on in-ho as an INTJ, I could see ISTJ just as much

squid game actually doesn’t have a load of horrendous mistypes on PDB which is nice, with the exception of hyun-ju being voted as an enneagram 4 which is literally always applied to trans people purely for being trans. actually come to think of it I also don’t buy the case for her being an ISFP, she’s definitely an ENFJ which I think has the vote rn

et tu, @chobyeok? 😭

people who ship gi-hun with sae-byeok scare me

like firstly how are you looking at kang sae-byeok and concluding that this girl is anything but a lesbian

and secondly why would you decide that her romantic interest is the man who pretty much adopted her as his daughter and is at least twice her age

stop it. get some help

gf!saebyeok hcs <3

Thanks for the ask! I hope you enjoy these!

—Gf! Sae-Byeok Headcanons

-not clingy but would not mind if you were

-very quiet and reserved, but alone she’s more carefree with you

-she loves you a lot and shows you that through simply being there for you and loving you in meaningful, subtle ways

-loves soft kisses

-likes to tease you playfully sometimes

-loves to see you be yourself and open up to her

-finds it easy to talk to you the most

-very protective

-doesn’t ever want to think about letting you go

-you are one of the only ones who makes her smile so hard

-she loves the moments where you just exist with each other. for example, you two can just be laying in bed in lazy mornings and her heart will swell with how much love and peace she feels in the moment

-you go out on simple, easy going dates. she doesn’t mind where you go as long as you both are happy and comfortable

I just had a thought; how did ji-yeong survive the night time brawl/“special game”? she wasn’t in gi-hun’s team at that point so she must have either hid or fought solo, right?

personally I think she wouldn’t have gone out of her way to kill people but if she was threatened she would absolutely have killed a man

I’m thinking shard of glass rather than bludgeoning someone with a metal bar. girlie’s already proficient with sharp objects

alternate take because suffering is fun: curled up under a bed in the foetal position with her hands over her ears waiting for it to be over

has anyone ever talked about the fact that the first time we see sae-byeok she’s carrying an iced coffee?

this girl is literally barely surviving, committing crimes on the daily, probably only one step ahead of deok-su and his gang since she ditched them and they want payback, and she still found time and money to buy herself a little treat

and I LOVE that for her. so much. I hope she got a little cookie or something with it too

Small brains: “This Squid Game character is completely bad and has no positive qualities!” “This Squid Game character is completely good and has no negative qualities!”

Big, massive, gigantic brains: Every Squid Game character is a realistic portrayal of the human mind and morals, no character is void of sin nor are any of them inherently wrong for anything they do when put under the pressure of being forced into situations where they have no choice but to survive or die trying. No decision is stupid or weak when a gun is pointed to your head, or a sharp object is held to your throat. When a human’s life is threatened, of course they will make decisions that we at home deem irrational, and we see it that way because we are not them. We are not groveling on our knees with the barrel of a gun aimed for the spot between our eyes, we are sitting in the comfort and luxury of our homes, watching a fictional show about a dramatized rendition of the effects of CAPITALISM.

It is okay, in fact warranted and natural, to feel hatred for people who do questionable things, as well as adoration and empathy. You are human. So are they. That is the point of the portrayal. Gihun wasn’t fucking around when he forgave and trusted so easily. He doesnt see “evil” or “nefarious” he sees human.

The REAL enemy? The system. Which is what we’ve been trying to say since DAY ONE of Squid Game’s release. Next time your blorbo gets killed off, dont look at the crazed stare in their murderer’s eyes, look at the knife or gun in their hand and ask yourself the question;

Who put that there?

Who put the weapon in their hand and gave them the capability and the drive to do it in the first place? When you do that, you will achieve clarity, i promise.
