One of my favorite scenes from season 1

Gi-hun! Do you know why your life is so pathetic? Because you ask the dumbest questions even in this situation. Constantly minding other people's business with that pea brain of yours, not knowing your ass from your elbow.

#it’s like sang-woo takes his self hatred and pushes it onto gi-hun #like he’s aware that he’s ALSO there but he’s giving gi-hun shit for it. for being an idiot and getting himself stuck there #because when he’s forced to consider whether he’d go as far as pushing gi-hun he can’t figure out the answer #he does still care about him but he knows gi-hun has to die if he’s going to win #they all would’ve died if gi-hun was in front and refused to move but would sang-woo resort to killing him himself?#or would he convince gi-hun to take that 50/50 chance into his own hands?#he doesn’t know and he’s upset at gi-hun for even being there in the first place #and he’s upset at himself for falling this far #so he lashes out at him when gi-hun asks a real question like that #the words aren’t truly out of hatred for HIM but gi-hun still takes it #then he takes the respect and pride he’s been holding for sang-woo and turns it against him #gi-hun says what sang-woo is feeling out loud #everytime gi-hun’s praised him the whole time this is exactly how sang-woo felt. if he was a success story then why was he here?#it’s shocking to him hearing gi-hun say his own thoughts like this. gi-hun of all people. the one who was so very proud of him #but he’s right and sang-woo wants to keep projecting his shame onto him instead of accepting his wrongdoings #shame haunts him in a way it doesn’t haunt gi-hun #(at least not yet)#and he can’t stand that gi-hun’s still thinking with his heart. that he cares about him killing a man who would’ve gotten them all killed #because gi-hun’s too good deep down and sang-woo is nothing like that #gi-hun is there because he isn’t cold and logical like sang-woo. but then why is sang-woo there?#what makes them so different if they’re both here?#sang-woo can’t even respond. can’t lash out again because what does he even say? how could he possibly deflect a truth like that?#gi-hun openly admits his faults. admits why he’s there. and sang-woo just can’t do the same #also they should kiss it out #sorry yapped about nothing there #idk if anything i said even makes sense but idgaf
