a lot of things aren’t ok but everything will be
apple blossoms, 2025 april 🍃
I’d watch an entire episode of In-ho taking care of his fish (or just staring at them)

The real Squid Game villains are the games, the system, the corruptions, the VIPs and rich, powerful people.
In-ho has made mistakes and done terrible things, but he’s also trapped, wounded, traumatized and is as much of their victim as Gi-hun is.

day 1: yearning
Imagine how cunty it’d be if when In-ho and Gi-hun saw each other face to face again it was Gi-hun sitting on the Front Man’s chair (that one chair In-ho always sat on), In-ho thought Gi-hun was still down there in the dormitory with the rest of the Players when he walked into his office, still wearing the Front Man’s mask, and suddenly Gi-hun turned the lights on, still seated on In-ho’s chair and said, “Hello In-ho.”
OR
Imagine this being how In-ho and Jun-ho reunited. Jun-ho sitting on the Front Man’s chair and catching In-ho off guard by saying something like, “Hello, hyung.”
Hwang In-ho I will never say no to anything with you in it

i know in canon that inho’s and junho’s mother (stepmother in inho’s case) would never find out about the Games but i’m actually screeching imagining this:
like imagine this woman. all she wanted was for her two boys to call her sometimes. maybe not disappear for months at a time without so much as a text. maybe come to dinner once a week. and then she finds out:
(1) inho?? the “golden child” who always brought her flowers on parents’ day and vacuumed without being asked?? ran off to play in a death game?? then still had the audacity to survive, climb the ranks, and then became the emo darth vader of the whole operation??
(2) and the other? junho. immediately endangers his life to chase after him. zero hesitation. zero explanation. just disappears the same way, like they’re doing some twisted sibling relay race into the abyss.
(3) then inho shoots him. shoots. him. off a cliff.
(4) and after all that, junho still decides, “i’m gonna go back. i’m gonna find him. i’m gonna rescue his murdery ass because i’m the only one allowed to beat him up.”
so now imagine their (step)mother, who thought both of them were dead, suddenly finds out that not only are they not dead, but they’ve both been playing emotional chicken with the reaper out of some self-destructive sense of sibling loyalty.
her slipper’s already in hand. her rage is generational.
she gets them both in the same room and it’s not yelling—it’s a reckoning. she doesn’t even ask questions. she just starts swinging.
“you!” slaps the older one on the back of the head “you don’t call! you don’t write! you don’t even have the decency to stay out of crime??”
“and you!” grabs the younger by the ear mid-escape attempt “YOU FOLLOW HIM?? INTO THAT?? ARE YOU STUPID OR IS THIS A PERFORMANCE??”
they try to explain. they stutter. they glance at each other like say something but neither does. because god forbid they communicate like normal people. at some point one of them probably mutters “it wasn’t his fault” and she just screams louder.
they’re both on the floor by the end. slipper marks. emotional damage. one of them maybe crying a little. and she’s just standing there going, “you could’ve died without even telling me why. you idiots. come eat.”
and they do. they sit at the table in total silence, still bleeding metaphorically and literally, and they eat. because no matter how far you run, no matter how cold you become, no matter how many times you almost kill each other—
you are NEVER too old to be slippered into submission by the woman who raised you.

hey so umm you will be okay. I don't know how. I don't know when. but you will be okay
SA mention
We all know the VIPs are creeps and we saw them sexually harassing staff members, and so far we never get any direct confirmation one way or another if Front Man's even safe from them or if he's also one of their, well, victims. We do know, however, they're more powerful than Front Man, and Front Man, just like every other staff member, serves them. So it's not really a stretch to suspect he's been subjected to the same abuse his staff members go through.
Like, I'm not trying to make "excuses" for him when Jun-ho was assaulted. In-ho may or may not have known it was his brother behind the mask that day. And yes, it would have been great if he stepped in and stopped that VIP. But the thing is that we don't know if he even could, if any attempt to save Jun-ho would be seen as an act or rebellion that would be met with a far worse punishment for both him and Jun-ho.
"Why did In-ho just let it happen?" We don't even know if In-ho himself is also a victim when it comes to this. And if he really is one, then God knows how long—how many years—it's been happening to him.
In the end of Squid Game season 3 Jun-ho doesn't just get his brother back, he also gets himself a brother-in-law (aka Seong Gi-hun), and the three of them go home together

PLAYER 001 / HWANG INHO Squid Game 2 (2024)
Pages stained with coffee rings, thoughts blooming between lines, and light spilling into rooms where art and study meet. A life paced by paragraphs, warmed by stillness.
