After the brutal slaughter in the men’s restroom, where quite a few people were killed, including Thanos—the one who used to ease the tension in his team, preventing Nam-gyu from bullying others, while Se-mi had been stabbed with a fork and Min-su was hiding—you witnessed the horrifying scene from your hiding spot in the corner of one of the beds, hoping you wouldn’t be touched. You didn’t even understand what was happening due to your lack of Korean language skills. It seemed like Judgement Night had come to an end, and everyone was shouting at one another while you sat in the corner, watching.

When Nam-gyu shouted something, he rolled his eyes and his gaze fell on you, trembling and sitting there—a girl who didn’t even look Asian. When your eyes met, you were horrified by memories of how brutally the guy had dealt with a girl using a fork. He looked a mess now, with matted hair and blood everywhere, from the disgusting green jumpsuit of the Squid Game to his face.

Nam-gyu looked you over from head to toe, noticing how scared and confused you appeared. Your number and the cross on your outfit indicated that you wanted to end this game. He’d never had such a reaction before, but it felt like something in his heart jolted, evoking sympathy for your deep blue eyes. He approached you and asked in Korean, “you okay? Your eyes look really scared.” He raised his eyebrow a bit.
