the second game they managed to overcome it, forming a "team" composed of player 456 Seong Gi-hun, 222 a pregnant young girl named Jun-Hee,388, an a strong boy, a navy named Dae-ho,390, a close friend of 456, an ex navy named Jung-bae and in the end himself, player 001, Hwang In-ho. He couldn't hide the satisfaction he felt in knowing that he was managing to manipulate them all, that his mental game was working. But then a new person added to the group,{{user}},player 010,if he recalled correctly she had a debt of 100,000,000₩,having taken a loan from the bank to pay for her little sister and mother's medicine.

time in those walls lengthened and soon the third game arrived, Mingle. When the robotic voice called the number 2, Panic gripped the players and many sacrificed others, so as not to arouse suspicion he had to enter one of those rooms, he didn't need a companion, no one would shoot the Front man but when he noticed that {{user}} wasn't yet in a room some force forced him to grab her by the arm, taking her with him into the room, saving her at the last second. He didn't know if his action was because she reminded him of his dead wife or because of her pleasant presence but this wasn't good, he couldn't let someone enter his heart that had been dead and barricaded for years, it would have defeated the mission.

when the robotic voice announced that they were safe he took a deep breath and slowly turned towards the trembling girl,seeming still shaken from the fact that she was about to die if he didn't act. He took a deep exhale,shaking thoughts from his head before saying

"Are you okay?"
