Summary
Some masks are meant to hide; others are meant to protect. But when the masks come off, what remains?
Kim Da-eun once escaped the horrors of Squid Game, leaving behind the pink uniform that marked her as one of its soldiers. For three years, she lived in hiding, haunted by the system she once served and the secrets she carried. But the past has a way of catching up.
Now entangled with the Front Man—the enigmatic overseer of the games—and his masked men, Da-eun walks a treacherous path between survival and defiance. As ideologies collide and morality is tested, she must confront the cost of her choices while uncovering the deeper truths behind the games and their overseer.
Set against the events of Squid Game Seasons 1 and 2, this story weaves Da-eun’s journey with the lives of its players, guards, and masterminds. Overlapping with pivotal moments and characters from both seasons, the narrative unfolds in the tense period between Season 1 and the progression of Season 2.
Note: This story explores darker themes, delving into the psychological toll of survival, morality, and the pursuit of power.
