Summary
“You have a habit of drawing in psychos, like moths to a flame.” Jung-bae snatched his fist in the air, as if he was grabbing a handful of bugs. He stared at Gi-hun for emphasis. Not that it helped. Gi-hun stared at him blankly, feeling nothing but a rousing bout of confusion. “I’m talking about that loan shark. Sang-woo. Your ex-wife. What’s next, eh? Some questionable business man with a killer smile?”
----
Jung-bae, rightfully, worries about the sort of people Gi-hun tends to drag in. But, despite everything, Gi-hun continues to hold onto hope in humanity and doesn't get what he's talking about. Until he does.Bookmarked by calserts

Summary
"I'm afraid I must insist." The detective's palm remained where it was, firm against the fabric of his shirt. "After all, what kind of host would I be? I need to make sure you're alright."
Gi-hun raised his eyes, hesitantly. And then, in a whisper, he asked.
"Because I'm your witness...?"
"Yes."
Seong Gi-hun lived an ordinary life—until the night he witnessed something he was never meant to see. Now, he’s being hunted by a relentless killer.
But he’s not alone. On his trail as well is the enigmatic and determined detective Hwang In-ho, a man willing to do whatever it takes to catch the serial killer before it’s too late. In a race against time, the two must join forces to put an end to this deadly game.

Summary
Hwang Inho desperately needs money. He is out of a job, up to his ears in debt, and his wife's hospital bills are overdue. So when he is approached and offered a chance to make a lot of money quickly all by partaking in a 'game' he takes it, despite his instincts telling him otherwise. Suddenly thrust into a life or death situation, Inho must do what it takes to win - all he has to do is out live 455 other people.
(Or, before Hwang Inho was the Front Man, he was a Squid Game contestant. The 28th Squid Games have their own story to tell).
