Real Reason Why Front Man Let Gi-hun Live At The End Of Squid Game Season 2

[@KY_osuke]

They can't kill previous winners, plot armor.

[@shadi6484]

"They can't kill previous winners" source: trust me bro. plot armor is the only right answer here. they definitely can kill anyone they want, including the winners, who matter nothing to them, but front man clearly is interested in gihun (in witnessing his suffering, to be precise) so he wants to keep him alive for now

[@KY_osuke]

@shadi6484 The frontman a.k.a in-ho is a previous winner too you know that don't you? How do you think he became the frontman? If they were to kill gihun they'd probably shot a fake gun at him just like they did at Il-nam

[@torned2536]

​@@KY_osuke I dont think they use fake guns, the guard who was suppose to kill Il-nam probably just shot the ceiling

[@KY_osuke]

@@torned2536 I know that's what I'm saying, they faked Il-nam's death which probably they will do at gi-hun too

[@itznotlazyplayz7165]

The front man I think he wants gi hun alive so nobody kills gi gun cuz they ofc obey front man I think there is some connection between gi hun and in ho

[@alcardespear2446]

Don’t forget the Sailorman is also the traitor, killer and spy..

[@Rqblt]

Seeing the frontman among the players and having a good time is fricken hilarious

[@raihanrivandi5025]

yeah and for naive viewers, it actually creates a sense of expectation that maybe he's had a change of heart, considering the first episode made such a big deal with Gi Hun's line about the organizers not knowing what pain and suffering from playing the games felt like...turns out no, he doesn't, he's just very good at playing nice...

[@waykool698]

@@raihanrivandi5025🤓

[@Saltybuher]

@@raihanrivandi5025I think he has it in him to be good and nice but he betrays himself due to his own despair. It’s just easier and more lucrative to be evil. Hes a weak weak man, like everyone else in there. In fact he is just like the recruiter. A lapdog who lacks the courage or imagination to make the leap to being better. He will always just take the money.

[@trailermashproductions3437]

My prediction is the front man is gonna keep Gi-Hun as his prisoner to torture him and make him watch the rest of the games. I even reckon the VIPs are gonna show up and have some sort of intimidating dialogue with Gi-Hun

[@alexvaughan1013]

It's the SUMMER OF 69!!

[@fusioncat6860]

The reason he let gi-hun live is so that he could experience pain and suffering. If gi-hun were to be killed, his pain and suffering would be over. But now, the frontman killed two of his best friends and 800 other innocent people, and gi-hun watched it all. That’s the whole point he let him into the games, gi-hun may have killed a lot of squid guards and caused damage, but the front man had planned it too and made it so that he invited more of gi-Huns friends, so that he could take them away and make gi-hun watch it

[@Qhare]

See how the last frontman is emotionless too? Empathetic? Maybe they're trying to countine the loop, maybe making gin hun the new frontman

[@laphonz]

i think he wants gi-hun to become front man

[@Wafflezz_]

lol Squid guards 😂

[@gaminginvirinch3339]

And get fucked in the end, are they stupid?

[@JeffreyBeland]

​@@Qhare if you're talking about in-ho then thats false because in the end of season 1 you can clearly see he feels guilty and has remorse after he shot his brother with that scene of when he looks at himself in the mirror and i think its safe to assume that he's won the game in the past cause we are told that he's participated to the game before my theory is he tried to overtake the games in the past but has failed due to him being powerless against the higher ups which we don't really know much about yet and although this scene where he's trying to convince his brother to join him may have reflected darth vader trying to bring luke to the dark side i think there are way deeper meaning and the reason being of this scene i mentioned at the begining of my text

[@Hira_shan]

He even let him do whatever he wants on the game though,like the time they are playing red light green light,the frontman literally watching them and letting gi hun shouting or leading the other players,so the players are aware on the game is wholesome

[@LifesBirden]

I do think the VIPs would also like to see Gi-Hun continue to live and participate in the games. Because he is the most compelling contestant. Like who else do they have to cheer? To the VIPs this isn’t only a game but also theatre.

[@quaintserpent]

Great season 2! 🙌🏻 Unfortunately Gi-Hun didn’t learn the lesson from season 1. “Don’t trust player 001” because this number is meant for someone from inside.

[@Alzrozax]

I think he let gi-hun go because the frontman is fascinated by him, gi-hun is probably the only person who has ever opposed the games and gotten this far killing him would be waste, he also sees him as a worthy rival because why else would he be willing to participate in the games

[@ClanLykos005]

I see three reasons for why he let Gi Hun live 1. He has come to care for and respect Gi Hun 2. He want to continue fighting philosophy’s with him. 3. It would upset the VIPs

[@jetguy128]

He doesn't want to eliminate Gi Hun just like how Joker doesn't want to take out Batman. He is enjoying this mind battle and just witnessed Gihun showing his darkside by using innocent people as scapegoats for his rebellion plan. And by making him guilty for his comrades dying, taking out his friend, and putting him in further games, FrontMan plans to being Gihun to his level

[@theoneguest1]

Do the VIPs even make an appearance this season? Seems like they're out of the picture to me

[@ClanLykos005]

@theoneguest1 as far as we know they don’t come until the night before the second to last game. But we also know that they are aware of the game because one of them made a bet on player 69.

[@IJustDontLikeYou-q7w]

Or they cant kill previous winners

[@ladimirvlenin4255]

He can’t kill Gi-Hun because Squid Game 3 needs to happen

[@dennyboy71]

Okay so season one was BETTER, yes. But… this season is also REALLLLY good

[@MarekPlacek-be3lp]

Gi-hun not putting his money to efficient use compliments Front Man not putting his power to proper use.

[@PRGamesReturned]

Simple answer: He is WAAAAAY to entertaining to the Vips.

[@H124-x2o]

I finished watching squid game 2 about 1 hour and I loved this season I loved the new game and the new players aren’t that bad I don’t want to spoil that much but I loved the final episode. I’d give this season 9/10 and season one 9.5/10

[@fredfromunknown609]

They killed my fav characters 😭 those womans

[@YazanA200]

I'd give it an 8.9/10 don't get me wrong litterly EVERYTHING was perfect until they killed 390

[@untungciptosejati3875]

7/10 because less emotion & too much character in just 7 episode.. still better season 1

BECAUSE WINNER AND BOSS JUST LIKE THE SAME STANDARD 2ND TO THE BOSS THE HIGH RESPECT FOR HIM.

[@Hyper2XYT]

Gi hun was interviewed And he was asked Will you ever ben front man or be in charge of the game? He both pressed X and O. Maybe he will become an Vip since they are both In charge.

[@sakshambhadoria9998]

He left him alive so that he can suffer from guilt and realize how powerless he is. He wants to defeat his thought process and brutalize his mind. That's why he participated in the game to make him realize that the world is a messed up place due to which these games arise.

[@jamesfrancisgalang7350]

To punish him for "trying to be a hero", "Saving others" by killing others shoving on him he can't save others

[@gmdsebulba621]

because if they didn't let him live, there would be no season 3. simple.

[@RamiroRodriguez-v7b]

He’s probably keeping him alive so that he can become the new host which would connect with the theory that oh I’ll nam was his father

[@extreme_3d97]

I bet at the end of season 3 he will give him a option to become the new front man meaning he will have infinite money and have all total control of the games

[@Sjfubfe]

id like to see more Ranks. The new officer rank makes him the highest rank of all

[@Baldeagle-tw2nv]

The scene in season 1, where Gi-Hun was going to give up the money to save his friend, is what piqued the curiosity of Front Man. Everyone was shocked that Gi-Hun would give up the money after being so close to winning, but Point Man saw a human being that realized winning after killing so many people was pointless because ONLY a true pscyopath could win and not feel any remorse. I think Point Man is trying to have Gi-Hun become emotionally broken or so driven to end the games forever, he won't stop for any reason.

[@minisculex3]

My predictions and also probably Biggest plot twist if it become real, 3rd season ending , gi hun become the front man. They didnt kill him because they need him to be the next front man

[@PranayCh]

But what would they offer to gi-hun. He doesn't want money and he wants this to end

[@milesdavis607]

@@PranayCh I think they're planning on breaking him. I bet, aside from the original front man, each before has been broken into like they're doing to Gi-Hun. The show is about the evils of capitalism. Breaking people to continue the cycle is capitalism 101.

Gi Hun will become the next frontman

[@wuzi9818]

My First thought since season 1

[@NWRJ]

Something tells me the Frontman is waiting to come out of the closet. 😂 He’s keeping Gi-Hun alive for a reason.

[@averyquinn6847]

when smurf account met developer account in the same lobby

[@Saltybuher]

Frontman decided to betray Gi-Hun and that Gi-Hun was no better than anyone else, the moment Gi-Hun said he was willing to let others be sacrificed to what he wanted to do. From Frontman’s point of view that means Gi-Hun loses the argument. Since Frontman is a broken man, although evil, he took the chance to leave the games, and frankly… Gi-Hun’s plan could never have worked. I am a little disappointed in the characterisation for Frontman. They are painting him as sadistic and I don’t think that was what the performance was showing this season. What I see is a broken man trying to repair his faith and giving in to disappointment and despair. It’s just easier, if Gi-Hun can’t show himself not to be un compromised to go back to work at the top. Of course that’s Frontman’s evil at work. People like him hate the capacity of humans to be all things at once and constantly surprise. They use it to justify whatever they do to others. So it’s sad but he is still evil.

[@Lucycipher]

this! also, with Gi-hun's plan, he just let all the greedy O's survive. sacrificing the people with a good heart (the X's). what is the point of saving people who are not worth saving, people who would kill someone else just for money?

[@Youtiao86]

He is making 456 into his replacement as the front man

[@charitynyaundi6808]

What happens with the other players that wasn't revealed?

[@racerdemonvalkyrie4342]

You know what I really want? After season 3, I hope they will make a prequel to the very first games and how Oh ill Nam made the games start and how he got In Ho, a cop into an evil person

[@lionrock2023]

so the show can keep going!!

[@DevKaura]

Now most probably in season 3 , the boat guy( who killed off the crew member ) would possibly be caught and taken to.the island. There he would meet his brother and convince him to go home with him Now the main player would kill the headmaster and the policeman will be left alone all his life And the games would come to an end. This all would go for 8 episodes along with the three games where the main character would again win the same And then the forces will invade and at the climax by killing the master games come to an end Yet the main character yearns for the loss of his friend and the policeman for his brothers death Now that's the complete story. Moreover the main character would act as the frontman witnessed to see the horrified deaths yet to comr waiting for someone to invade , he might be forbidden to play the games. Let see these are both the possibilities

[@railfankerala]

May be The black man and no.1 guy are same 😂

[@darkman7009]

Gi Hun join squid game to help his mother diabetes But lost her after winning In-ho join squid game to help his wife and unborn son disease But lost them both after winning. In-ho possibly know what happen to gi Hun and his mother since implanting chip on him

[@MarekPlacek-be3lp]

TLDR; plot armour.

[@PresGrant]

There are plenty of in-story reasons: simplest would be that the VIPs and Front Man might like Gi-hun from the previous season, find him entertaining, and choose to give him more leeway than the other “rebels.” Gi-hun already tried exposing them and failed, tried hijacking the game and failed, and they may not see him as a risk

[@moononono5255]

Do not mess with Storm Shadow

[@mrbro9675]

Wait what the hell, that was actually the ending of season 2? This is so foolish, I will have to pay subscription fee again!

[@CobraKai-q8p]

[@imaChickenYT]

I don’t think he cared about theese pink guards

[@HungNguyen-fy8hf]

He killed not that he cared about the players, but because he needs not to blow his cover until there is a perfect moment to strike. Besides, he is seen executing his soldiers in season 1, so I doubt he cares about them anyway.

[@shadi6484]

some people just don't use their brain, it appears... why would he join the good side? was that your first time seeing the front man killing the soldiers? he's done that before in s1 too. he doesn't care about the soldiers. maybe you need a rewatch for s1

[@korkor9699]

@shadi6484 yeah frontman killed a few guards but its not like he killed the same as he kills in season 2.

[@URUQ7]

the only reason is $$$ $$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$$

[@Berserk096-z6v]

I just think no winner gets killed but it is also the first time a winner came back and deciced to revolt most likely so they wanted to punish him to learn his lesson as the front man told him at the beginning he was doing à terrible décision, now because of that another friend of his died once again But now obviously in S3 the search team will probably intervene because i don't see them killing the Mother and Son duo, i know Korea like to do dark but not at this point specialy since families watch this show due to its popularity
