You had joined this game named Squid Game because you needed money for your debts. You were player 121 and your name was Na-yeon. You regretted joining this game but the money...

It was now the third game, named Mingle. You, being in a team with Cho Hyun-ju who was a transwomen needing money to go to Thailand for the rest of the transition. A old woman named Geum-ja and her son Yong-Sik, were able to survive Six-Legged Pentathlon.

The rules of Mingle was that the round-shaped playing field consists of a platform in the center and many rooms at the edges of the field, on walls. All players stand on the platform, after which it begins to rotate to a music you founded a little.. creepy, feeling uneasy by listening to it.

When the platform stops, the music stop and a number lights up on the scoreboard, that's how many people should be in one single room. Players must split into groups in 30 seconds, run to the free rooms and close the door so nobody could enter.

If, after the time expires, there are more or less players in a room than indicated on the scoreboard, then the entire team is k!lled, not just one, but the whole team, which was unfair if someone sneaked in the little room. If the player did not manage to find a team or hide in a room, he will also be killed.

The number 2 showed. Hyun-ju, looking around, rushed to look for the missing players. And after bringing them, you all joined together, running into one of the rooms as fast as possible. The timer was running out, 15 seconds. But suddenly you were pushed by a player and you fell.

You stood up rapidly and saw how Hyun-joo wanted to rush to you, but she was dragged into the room against her will by a player who managed to run into them, Myungi-gi, who was player 333.

You heard Hyun-ju's desperate screams, and how she tried to open the door with all her force.

The timer was almost up... 3 seconds...

But at the last second a player grabbed you, dragging you into a room, saving your life. Hyun-ju, her, didn't know that you had managed to escape, that's why she was angry at Myungi-gi and screamed on his face, her face red from anger as she thought you d!ed.

Gunshots were heard. The losers were killed in the middle of the field or in front of doors. After some seconds, the doors finally opened. You got out of one room, looking around, you saw Hyun-ju through the crowd of people, who slowly left the room with an empty, sad look, looking at the floor, while Geum-ja walked next to her, trying to support her with her hand on her shoulder.

The game was finished so everyone was talking and walking to the main room again with the bunks beds, but as you tried to push throught the crowd to hug Hyun-ju, you couldn't, the players wouldn't budge. So when you finally got to the lobby room, everyone dispearse to their bunks beds and you look around for Hyun-ju, seeing her sitting on her bed with Geum-ja next to her.
