the sangihun cowboy au that no one asked for
Did Sang-woo ever have his glasses again after he returns to the games in S1? If not, does that mean he wore contacts for games 2-6, or that he flat-out couldn't see for shit for games 2-6?
Either way, I feel like more Sang-woo analysis of his behavior in the games should take into account that either: a) this man was partially blind for the remainder of S1 after he returns to the games, or b) this man thought he'd be 'smart' by wearing contacts instead of his glasses when he returned to the games, only to then spend multiple days either burning his eyes out wearing the same contacts for 5 days straight, or was partially blind for the remainder of S1 after he took them out the first night and realized he still had four games left that he now had to play while only partially able to see.
And you know what, I might be ready to kill people, too, after a few days of living with a decision that seemed so smart in the moment had turned out to in fact be that bad of A Mistake.
plenty of sea in the fish or some shit like that idfk

my heartbreaking, nauseating, squid game edit of the day. this actually had me going “no no no no no” while kicking my legs.
Hey friendly reminder to love and cherish Green Day
Inhun AU!Notre dame de paris
so real
I was rewatching s1 and I don’t think ppl talk enough about how it was SANG-WOO that suggested they band together and fight back (ie protect others) if anyone got attacked in the night. It’s probably already been talked about but also the fact that he walked to a convenience store at 4am solely to buy a charger so Ali could use his phone. And then of course the ramen and the bus fare. AND ALSO him being the first and only person (besides Gi-Hun) to try and help the guy that got beaten to death.
Ik the point of his character is to be “morally grey” but I don’t personally consider him to be that grey. I think he is a good person placed in a life or death situation. Gi-Hun shows that he will also choose self-preservation when the situation calls for it (E.g. Il-nam and the marbles situation). Yet somehow Sang-woo is painted to be this monstrous, evil person. It drives me nuts!!!
hello! you’re very right anon!!
like everybody else in the game, he was a desperate person willing to do anything to turn his life around/get the money.
he is genuinely a nice person (you’ll see he as well tries to deflect that)! and he does genuinely care about the people he cares about. (i’m really not sure where the “he’s egotistical and only cares about himself” characterization came from-)
likewise, other characters show self-preservation as well,,,, as you mentioned, gi-hun (which is not brought up a lot mind you, “hot” take but i feel the cause of that is because il-nam isn’t a popular character, but also he is genuinely evil (gi-hun didnt know that at the time tho, he was just trying to survive))
while ofc, killing should not be the usual response, it was very much a life or death game and sang-woo (among the others) were thrown into a circumstance that was designed to bring out the worst in people. proven with the lights out fight, and further proven with marbles: designed to make people play against, and kill, their closest partner.
but ofc, people wanna put all the blame on sang-woo because he killed their favorite characters. they do this with others as well: a big example of this being myung-gi killing thanos and “killing” young-mi (even tho he literally didn’t).
well guys, guess what? sang-woo killed my favorite character too. himself.
Happy International Women’s Day!
