Summary
“Why,” Gihun said, voice trembling with the effort to hold it all in. “Why did you let me live?”
Inho blinked. His smile faltered, replaced by confusion, “What are you talking about?”
“I said,” Gihun was on his feet before he even realized it, the chair screeching across the floor as he lunged across the table. “Why did you let me live?!”
Seong Gihun is in a weird place. He finds out that everyone is alive and never experienced the Games. He assumes this is the afterlife and realizes perhaps he can finally heal.
Then he meets Hwang Inho.
-------
Gihun is in a world where everybody lives but he believes the Inho here is still manipulative. So, he makes it a personal mission to be nice to everybody...
...Except Inho.

Summary
"I’m aware of that.” In-ho paused to adjust his watch before asking, “How can I prove myself then? I’d like for you to trust me.”
“I do trust you. But what I want is for you to trust yourself." Il-nam stopped, his expression growing considerate. "Has it perhaps been too long since you participated in the games, that now you forget how it felt to be a contestant? Is that what's hindering your recognition of why they're necessary?”
Unsure of how to respond, In-ho returned the ramble with a small nod. “Maybe.”
For the first time that day, he witnessed a smile spread across Il-nam’s face, “Then why not play in them once more?”
or, In-ho competes in the 33rd annual Squid Game to prove his loyalty to Il-nam. In them he meets Seong Gi-hun, who complicates things. Greatly.

Summary
"He thought about Gi-hun, who was probably dead by now. After all, the world ate goodness. Consumed it like an animal eats raw meat, feeds on it and tears it up and destroys it. Who would know that better than In-ho? His wife, Gi-hun, these people were the type that the world swallowed whole.
And empty, rotten people like Hwang In-ho? Well, he'd probably live forever."
Hwang In-ho encounters Seong Gi-hun more than once, and each time, Gi-hun wedges himself deeper inside his mind. In-ho has been devoid of personhood for years, since his wife's death, but hope is a powerful thing. So, too, is love.

Summary
Gihun didn't really want to live, but dying wasn't an option just yet. For now, though, he could help all those who were suffering.
Or a more realistic story of childbirth and the care of the baby and mother in the first few days.Bookmarked by Juli_XxX
