not to just randomly talk about squid game on this blog but i just watched it a second time and noticed something insane that i completely missed on my first watch and it took me the fuck out so i thought i’d share because i haven’t seen any comments about it on here? basically, all the main players’ deaths were foreshadowed by how they spent their time after the first game (when they were sent home):
ali steals from his boss and runs away which is what sang-woo does to him with the marbles, deok-su jumps off a bridge which mirrors him being thrown off the stepping-stones by mi-nyeo, sae-byeok threatens to slash that guy’s throat which is what sang-woo does to her, and sang-woo is sitting in a bathtub filled with water while trying to kill himself, and in the end he commits suicide in the rain. that’s incredible foreshadowing honestly.
Also, Gi-hun swears on his mother’s life and Sae-Byeok makes a comment about how he would put his life before her’s. In the end Gi-hun survives but his mother dies.
