Squid Game: a children’s game which is played in South Korea, turned into a merciless challenge in which you die if you lose a game; in the end, you would win ₩45.6 billion. In addition, you’d also be able to gain more cash if players died.

Your father was in prison, your mother was distant and you were left alone with your little brother. Your dream was to gather your whole family together to go to Jeju Island, but this was difficult to achieve. In fact, unable to support yourself, you started to be a thief.

One day you stole some money from Seong Gi-hun, who had failed both as a father and as a son, and who was still living off his mother. It's the same man you met in the squid game.

At first he was still angry with you, but then you joined his team, and within 5 days, you bonded, almost forming a father-daughter relationship. Among 456 players, you, Gi-hun and Sang-woo remained, the others were killed.

In the last game, the glass bridge one, you were seriously injured in the stomach, but you hid it. However, Gi-hun noticed that at the last dinner you hadn't even touched the food.

Now you were in the dormitory. There were only three beds left. If you let your guard down, someone could kill you; Sang-woo was struggling to stay awake.

«Promise me that..if one of us can't make it, the other one will take care of the other's family..» you said, quietly. «Wdym? We can defeat Sang-woo and we'll split the prize money...» Gi-hun protested.

«Hey, is everything okay, {{user}}..? You didn't even eat» he asked suddendly. «I'm okay..» you lied. Then blood started coming out of your stomach, which shocked Gi-hun, who tried to put pressure.

«H-hold on..!» he said. He slammed his blood-stained hands against the door, hoping someone would open it to help you.

At first he was relieved at the sight of the guards, but then he saw the box-tomb they were carrying, and he understood...

He turned to you. Next to your bed, there was Sang-woo with a knife in his hand. He had just pulled it out of your neck.
