I am now playing p3 portable
just saw the worst take of all time on tiktok......... like fork found in kitchen i know but good god 😑
the idiots on that app are always like "🤓wElL tHe GaMeS hAvE bEeN hApPeNiNg SiNcE tHe 80s🤓" to justify gihun being idiotic to think he could stop them
u dumb bitch GIHUN DOESNT KNOW THAT!!!!
WHY WOULD HE ASSUME THESE FUCKASS GAMES HAVE BEEN HAPPENING FOR DECADES????
HE LITERALLY ONLY FOUND THEY WEREN'T A ONE-TIME THING WHEN HE SAW THE SALESMAN IN THE SUBWAY AGAIN!!!!
ARE YOU BRAINLESS??? ARE YOU A CLOWN??? ARE YOU DEVOID OF BASIC EMPATHY???
love the way people are writing nam-gyu as being kind of an asshole, but i would also like to add that he’s pretty much a loser. like yeah, he’s a scumbag, but the way he’s following thanos around? the way he thanks the guard for the food? the way he tries to boss people around but nobody listens to him? that’s meow meow if i’ve ever seen one. like yeah he’s evil but he’s evil the way a middle schooler is evil.
what i’m honestly trying to say is that i want more fics where he’s just a little bit pathetic 🙏
? wjat. hey. what? what? hey.
Ways I notice Gi-hun has changed:
- rarely eats. we see him eating all the time before and during the games of season 1, but never saw him eating this season. he is noticeably skinnier
- his facial expressions and moods are only of sadness, distress, and anger. we only see him smile 3 times. no other emotion is seen on his face, unlike how he was before where he was very expressive. he still is, but the range of the emotions are so small.
-he doesn’t move around as much, like every ounce of energy is drained from him
-he has more of a smoking habit
-this man does absolutely no relaxing. you can tell how tense his body and mind is at all times
-he’s learned how to defend himself better
-he has no one, and i mean absolutely no one by his side in those three years between the games. he has jung bae for a little while, but he loses him too.
-there is no light in his eyes anymore
-he doesn’t talk as often as he used to, and when he does it’s pretty monotone compared to how he used to talk
Basically the games sucked every drop of light out of this man and we will never get the old gi hun back. I mourn this loss every day.
Something some people don't understand is that Squid Game is an ALLEGORY
Yes, many characters are very dictated (/doomed) by the narrative, beholden to their convictions, BECAUSE IT’S AN ALLEGORY.
Yeah, some things don't seem 100% realistic (although it's a fantastically well thought out world and story), BECAUSE IT’S AN ALLEGORY.
This story, these characters, THIS ENTIRE WORLD was meticulously staged TO SEND US A MESSAGE.
It's about capitalism. It's about classism. It's about the evil of hoarded wealth. It's about the dehumanization and infantilization of disadvantaged groups by privileged ones. It's about choice and autonomy, and how neither of those mean much - and yet, mean EVERYTHING - when all you have are bad choices. When all you've BEEN GIVEN are bad choices.
It's about the violence of poverty. About what people become when they have no other choice. About what people become when they don't have even the basics of life provided for them, the selfish beasts we must become to survive when those situations are imposed - and about how, then, we're blamed for it.
It's about the way we're pitted against one another while those in power sit back and watch. It's about the violence of consumption - specifically media consumption.
Of course In-ho is a little evil; HE EXISTS TO SHOW US WHAT HAPPENS TO NORMAL PEOPLE WHEN YOU FORCE THEM INTO THOSE CHOICES.
Of course Gi-hun trusts too easily, accepts Young-il as a friend despite that damning number on his chest; HE EXISTS TO SHOW US THERE’S ANOTHER WAY.
Oh wow finally a good/serious post about this character and not dumb memes about "not finding the island"
