Summary
In-ho never planned to become a recruiter. But when the player count falls short and Seok-woo dares him to take a shift for the night, he steps in – just to prove a point. Ddakji case in hand, he finds Gi-hun. Broke. Bruised. And far too willing to pay with his body.
What begins as a standard transaction spirals into something stranger, hotter, and more dangerous than either of them expect. Consent blurs. Stakes rise. And In-ho finds himself breaking his own rules – because Gi-hun doesn’t just play to win. He begs to be ruined.
A slow burn of power, humiliation, and increasingly exploitative clauses.
Terms and Conditions
After accepting a dare to handle recruitment for one night, the initiating party (Hwang, I.) enters into a provisional agreement with the receiving party (Seong, G.).
Following a lost game of ddakji, the receiving party was informed he could “pay with his body.” The phrase was misunderstood. The offer was accepted – verbally, awkwardly, and with excessive eye contact.
Consent is given. Clarity is questionable. Emotional damage is ongoing. Renewal is likely.
This contract is binding. No refunds.

Summary
“I see. Your usual clients must be of a higher calibre than I thought.”Gi-hun bristles immediately. “Well, none of them ever told me to bow at a certain angle, or that I wasn’t allowed to speak.” He lets out a snort. “And none of them ever thought so highly of themselves that I wasn’t allowed to look at them. Sir.”
There’s another pause, longer this time. Gi-hun resolutely avoids glancing at the mirror.
“Well, please,” his passenger says, cordial. “If it’ll make you feel better, you have my permission to look at me.”
Gi-hun has driven a lot of assholes in his three years as a chauffeur, but this may be his biggest one yet.

Summary
Of course the Frontman had seen him coming, foreseen the naïve act of bravery on his brother’s behalf, and intercepted their attack at every single turn. He’d even gone so far as to infiltrate the games, posing as a player – player 001, ironically – just to mess with Gi-hun’s head.
And he hates himself over it. He hates that the Frontman got to him, tricked him, deceived him so, so easily. He hates that he’s doomed to trust so easily, to allow a charming smile and a heated gaze fool him. Young-il never existed. He was carefully constructed, specifically designed to infiltrate Gi-hun’s group and manipulate.
-
Gi-hun speaks to the Frontman more than once, and uses his infatuation as a manipulation tactic. S3 rewrite.

Summary
Gi-hun’s lips curled into a smirk, his gaze cold as he shook his head. “Fifteen years, and you’re still the same selfish bastard you were back then.”
Gi-hun thought his biggest challenge at his new job would be impressing clients—he didn’t expect to run into his ex from fifteen years ago… especially not as the CEO. Now he’s stuck navigating awkward reunions, old sparks, and the small matter of working under the guy who still knows how to get under his skin.
