@transceiver-cat you were my 100th reblog and on that post of all posts that's crazyy

Sang-woo/Gihun analysis based solely on the Sae byeok death scene.

As we know, in episode seven of season one, Sae byeok gets struck by a shard of glass on her waist and has to go through the whole dinner before the last game while bleeding out, trying her best to postpone her certain death.

All while Gi hun is now wary of Sang-woo for pushing a man to his death in the glass bridge (which, in context of the game, is completely understandable) and is trying to plot with Sae byeok to kill him and completely ignoring her pleas for him to swear to look after her brother, brushing them off with blind optimism.

Blind optimism is an interesting quality of Gi hun's that we see all throughout the series, it is often portrayed as a good thing, but not in this scene. When confronted with the death of someone he cares about, he refuses to look at things objectively, using his delusions of her living as a shield from the reality right in front of him, the reality that she is dying and he cannot save her. Sae byeok has accepted her death and is only thinking about the safety of her loved ones, her last wish is for the only man that she deems trustworthy in this place to look after her family and carry on. But Gi hun cannot look into her eyes and accept her death wish, because by doing so he would be admitting to himself that she is indeed dying.

So he runs away from reality, physically and mentally, by banging on the doors and calling for a doctor he knows won't come, but do you know who is not afraid of reality?

When Gi hun turns back he is faced with one of the worst sights he could possibly have, his lifelong bestfriend, Sang-woo, staring blankly at the girl he has grown to care so much about in so little time, bloody knife in hand, and a black coffin with a red bow just waiting to carry her limp body away.

And that makes Gi hun panic and rage, which is understandable. But if you were to look at this scene outside of his biased point of view of someone who was already seeing his own best friend as a cold monster, and think logically. Sang-woo took away the last minute or so of Sae byeok's life, a long and cold minute of dread and regret over all the choices she's made that brought her to this moment, wondering if her brother and mother would ever get a chance at life, in pain, as blood pools under her body in a lonely death bed.

Sang-woo did what Gi hun was too cowardly to even consider as a possibility, he doesn't care about being perceived as good, unlike his best friend who would rather let somebody he loves so much suffer alone, because facing her death head on, or even terminating her suffering himself, would be damaging to his internal image of being a good person. "Good people don't kill other people", that's Gi hun's black and white thinking, but the world isn't black and white and Sang-woo is well aware of that fact.

the squid game fandom has a crazy problem with believing just because they like a character, or because a character is a good person, that the character should’ve lived. i hear this so often with sae byeok & ali. now, i obviously understand sangwoo wasn’t a stand-up guy (arguably, imo), to say the least, & i do agree his betrayal of ali was wrong (i don’t think anyone’s arguing that) but that does not mean ali should have lived. he died when he needed to die & sangwoo needed to live because the story demands it; sangwoos death happened because ali’s did. i love ali as much as the next guy but i know he needed to die when he did.

where many more may disagree is sae byeoks death. there was no way she could’ve made it. say she survived after losing so much blood, she’d be too weak to win against a much more bloodful person. her death would’ve been much more long & painful, sangwoo put her out of her misery.

i know a lot of fans of the show paint sangwoo as unapologetic for his actions & as a heartless individual but a solid handful of his character later on is rooted in his guilt.

having a character that lives because they are a good person defeats part of the message the show works endlessly hard to convey.

I keep seeing people call the Trump administration shit like “schizophrenic” and “psychotic” and can we fucking not do this please???? schizophrenics and people with psychosis have a biological and neurological basis for their behavior and beliefs. there is no biological basis for being racist and sexist and a monster. schizophrenics and ppl with psychosis are innocent. you can’t beat bigotry with more bigotry

fellow narcissists, sociopaths, and psychopaths,

we're going to hear those words being thrown around a lot over the next few years. more than we already do, which is not an insubstantial amount. i want you to remember that you are not monsters, or fascists, or scum.

as more and more people throw around diagnoses they do not care to understand and words that they do not see as harmful, i want you all to remember that you are not alone and that the entire world is not against you.

there are people out there who care and understand and are not afraid. you are not alone, and you are not unloved.

dont let them make you fearful of yourself, you deserve so much better than that.

stay safe

@transceiver-cat do you see that shit bestie

I need to be put down like a sick dog, why is sangihun so tragic? I cry just thinking about them.

Sangwoo is seen as this horrible evil guy, but he literally killed himself for his childhood best friend and asked him to take care of his mother for him. Gi hun had sae-byeok, someone he viewed as like a daughter to him, stolen away from him because sangwoo killed her. Yet, he wanted to give up the prize money because sangwoos life mattered more to him. He sobbed and screamed at sangwoos death, despite minutes ago fighting him to the death.

I can’t bear this. Someone put me out of my misery please
