Altogether, these surprising plot points show thatSquid Gamewants to mess with viewers in any way it can.
Thus,countless theories have been posited about Gi-hun’s fate, which could go in several directions.
At this point, there is no ideal way forSquid Gameto end.
Thus, Gi-hun would survive, but at a steep cost.
Furthermore, it would tragically kill so many amazing characters that season 2 spent time building up.
He is just one man among the Front Man and his army of guards.
At first glance, this may seem like a horrible way to end the series.
In some ways, it would be.
All of Gi-hun’s efforts would have been for nothing.
IfSquid Gamewas going for a more realistic ending, thenit would make sense for the Front Man to prevail.
A hopeless ending would offer food for thought, but runs the risk of leaving audiences unsatisfied.
Weirdly, having everything work out for Gi-hun may not be the best ending forSquid Game.
Then, perhaps the Front Man will offer a newly radicalized Gi-hun a position in the games.
Once again, this throw in of ending lends itself toSquid Games’overarching themes.
Audiences could see this happen to Gi-hun in real time, just as it happened to the Front Man.
The most obvious choice of player for Gi-hun to save is Jun-hee, aka Player 222.
If Gi-hun sacrificed himself for her, he would be saving two lives rather than just one.
