Thinking about how Gihun absolutely wanted Sangwoo to end the game with him and come out of it alive together, but how Sangwoo was already suicidal and dealing with depression and so when he realized he had put up all this fight against his very own hyung, the man he cherished during his childhood, the reality that the world is truly fucked up had finally settled in and that drove him to complete his own suicide.
“Im sorry hyung” was not because he fought Gihun or tried to kill him, Sangwoo knew Gihun would have forgiven him, but he also knew that if he took Gihun’s hand he would have had to live with that fact for the rest of his life and he’d be even more alone than he was before. And he was sorry that he had to make Gihun bear witness to the loss of his childhood friend, because he knows how much Gihun loves him.
Gihun was probably one of the only people that reached out to him while he was going through his depression and on the run. What would you do if you were forced to kill the only person who supported you during your darkest moments? Youd feel so much guilt and shame it would eat you alive. And thats why Sangwoo stabbed himself. It fucking hurts me man ugh
Did Sang-woo ever have his glasses again after he returns to the games in S1? If not, does that mean he wore contacts for games 2-6, or that he flat-out couldn't see for shit for games 2-6?
Either way, I feel like more Sang-woo analysis of his behavior in the games should take into account that either: a) this man was partially blind for the remainder of S1 after he returns to the games, or b) this man thought he'd be 'smart' by wearing contacts instead of his glasses when he returned to the games, only to then spend multiple days either burning his eyes out wearing the same contacts for 5 days straight, or was partially blind for the remainder of S1 after he took them out the first night and realized he still had four games left that he now had to play while only partially able to see.
And you know what, I might be ready to kill people, too, after a few days of living with a decision that seemed so smart in the moment had turned out to in fact be that bad of A Mistake.

I QUOTE THIS MEME ALL THE TIME 😭😭😭
Frontman asking gihun to join him season 3 leak
I think that sang-woo is pretty much canonically gay but like closeted. "My son doesn't have a wife yet because he has really high standards" so you mean he likes men?? If he had high standards him and gi-hun wouldn't be doing all of that
reading this while listening to are you satisfied by marina and the diamond LORD
It's certainly interesting to think about the fact that Gi-Hun and Sang-Woo envied one another.
While it might be obvious to see why Gi-Hun would envy Sang-Woo given his credentials; Pride and joy of Ssangmun-dong, top of his class, SNU buisness graduate, valedictorian, etc. It might not be as obvious to think what Sang-Woo envy Gi-Hun for.
I think the answers relies on what society considers a "successful man"
This is usually measured by these factors: finances, career and family.
While certainly on a superficial level, Sang-Woo reach far greater than Gi-Hun in terms of career and finances, Gi-Hun had a title that Sang-Woo didn't.
Husband and father.
They shared the experience of both having success in their careers and having that taken away from them, and their finances were fucked over because of it.
But, unlike Sang-Woo, Gi-Hun was a "complete" man. Even though they both "failed," Gi-Hun had a daughter that would thrive regardless of the bad decisions he made. His legacy would live regardless if he had a career or not.
Sang-Woo only had himself and his achievements, and he lost everything.
Even though he seems quite disinterested with the idea of having a girlfriend (more than likely he is a closeted gay man) it's the fact that Gi-Hun build something everlasting, even if it didn't require any special titles. Just the will and the love.
If instead of reaching for something beyond his league as it is to become a multimillionaire, he focused on the "small and trivial" things, he might have built something of importance, something that wouldn't die along with him.
He envy the fact that Gi-Hun, with the contrasting careless attitude, could build that for himself. Could be materially more successful than he is.
