Summary
“And humans are...”
The words were left unfinished. Gi-hun couldn't find a single word to describe humanity. There was so much to say, and so little time as he leaned back from the platform, feet no longer touching the concrete. Time slowed down, or at least, his perception of it did. He didn't jump. He knew he couldn't. Something about seeing the ground you're about to hit was even more haunting than the fact he was falling.
Or;
Gi-hun doesn't die. He's back at the games - just not those that he's played before. Unfamiliar faces of people he's never seen before; all but one.

Summary
The worst four years of Gihun’s life didn’t end the way either of them anticipated. Inho stopped the Games at the very last second, and now, back in Seoul with feet on dry land and no real place to call home, Gihun and Inho are left to figure out how to navigate a life neither of them expected to still be living.
Gihun has to keep living - for Gayeong, for all the friends and family he’s lost, for the ones who are still alive. This means finally talking to the people he’s been keeping at arms length, giving them the answers he’s been holding close to his chest. It means making decisions for himself and not just for revenge. It means raising a baby he never planned to have.
Inho has to keep living for Gihun.
But the Games are bigger than them both and far from over. A few bombs on an island aren’t enough to put an end to it all. Faced with some difficult decisions to make, Inho may already be in too deep to choose wisely and Gihun finds himself yet again at the centre of it all.

Summary
After being fatally wounded, Gi-hun bleeds to death, accompanied by the knowledge that the man he'd grown to trust the most had been his greatest enemy all along.
Fortunately, he's given another chance to fix things, as long as he makes the right choices.

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.
