Summary
In-ho’s coffee leaps into the air, high enough that he’d laugh if he wasn’t (literally) seeing red. The hot liquid rains down, splattering all over his white button-up.
Seong Gi-hun is mortified, his face matching the shade of his hair as he realizes what he’s just done.
“Oh my god!” he cries, grabbing a handful of napkins from the register. “I’m so sorry! I wasn’t looking where I was going!”
In-ho's never believed in karma. If karma was real, Oh Il-nam would’ve died ages ago. If karma was real, he would've died in his games. But he didn't.
Maybe, somehow, this is his karma.
Gi-hun gets on the plane to L.A. In-ho follows with one goal and one goal only: make sure Gi-hun sets roots in America. Make sure he doesn’t return to the games.
But when In-ho (or rather, Young-il) continuously bumps into Gi-hun, he realizes this might be harder than he initially thought. Especially with how Gi-hun’s looking at him. Karma’s a bitch.

Summary
Seong Gi-hun had finally earned a victory unexplainable by words. His morality shined through even while he fell from that large, circle pillar. He had silenced the VIP's with his sacrifice, but more importantly, had reminded In-ho of everything he was not.
But then.. he opened his eyes.

Summary
In this alternate retelling, Gi-hun discovers from the very beginning that In-ho is the Front Man. Instead of enemies, they form an uneasy alliance, navigating the deadly games together. With fewer casualties and as the story unfolds, Gi-hun and In-ho become unlikely partners—and eventually, the guardians of Player 222 for a little bit.
I’ll try to updating daily with new chapters.

Summary
Gi-hun's entire life has fallen apart, but he’s been managing to hold himself together, picking up the pieces of himself in the aftermath of a messy divorce. But one day, he arrives at work early to find something that sends his entire world crashing down around him for a second time.
A tasteless, disgusting prank – because that’s all it is, what else could it be?
“I think someone may even harbor some kind of disturbing fascination with you, Gi-hun. But you need to understand – the Board only sees that you're causing problems.” Il-nam pauses to break eye contact, expression grim. “I don’t mean to speak ill of your area colleagues, but they're not good enough to save your career from this. Any of them.”
Just as despair grips Gi-hun within its sharp talons, In-ho, who has been silently observing the entire exchange, finally speaks up – offering salvation that reverberates through the silent office like a crack of thunder.
“I’ll do it.”
