by

Summary

  • Myung-Gi is the only Season 2 character who survives without allies, impressing fans with his underrated survival skills.
  • Fans find Myung-Gi intriguing due to the lack of allies, many foes, and bold gameplay, highlighting his complexity.
  • Myung-Gi’s unpredictable nature and potential redemption arc with Jun-hee leave fans unsure if he will survive season 3.

Astute viewers of the series Squid Game spotted a specific character in Season 2 who managed to survive despite not belonging to any particular group. This ability left a strong impression on many spectators, with some commenting that this character’s survival abilities have been significantly underestimated.

In December 2024, Squid Game Season 2 premiered, introducing fresh characters while bringing back Gihun (Lee Jung-jae) to the lethal competition, this time with a mission: to dismantle it. As anticipated, numerous characters met their end in the second season, including beloved character Thanos (Choi Seung-hyun, or T.O.P.). However, unexpectedly, an individual with countless enemies and no allies managed to survive, leaving viewers in awe of their resilience.

In a Reddit discussion about the popular series “Squid Game,” one fan posted photos showing the contestants with their teammates during the Six-Legged Pentathlon, except for Lee Myung-Gi (Yim Siwan). While others were pictured in groups, Myung-Gi was noticeably alone. The original poster questioned if anyone else had noticed this, and indeed, many viewers did. They found him intriguing, and some even speculated that his character might be particularly significant because he made it through the games thus far, and they admired his survival instincts.

Despite having few allies and many adversaries, Myung-Gi managed to survive—his resilience is underestimated, making him an exceptional new player this season. One Reddit user compared Myung-Gi (Jung Ho-yeon) to Sae-byeok from Season 1, noting their shared struggle to form teams and association with the antagonists. Some spectators see Myung-Gi’s drifter status as an advantage due to his lack of strong emotional bonds with others. However, others caution that being a loner could lead to trouble when it’s dark, as other players might team up against him.

As a movie enthusiast, I can confidently say that the character of Myung-Gi is intricately layered and multifaceted. He’s got a knack for getting on one’s nerves, and his decision to abandon Jun-hee during her pregnancy, following a cryptocurrency scam, is downright reckless. Yet, he possesses an uncanny agility, strength, sharp intellect, and bravery that make him a force to be reckoned with in the deadliest of tournaments.

Take, for example, the pivotal moment in episode six. In the heat of the Mingle game, Myung-gi swiftly maneuvers Hyun-ju back into the room before the door locks, trapping Young-mi outside – a turn of events that ultimately leads to her demise. Another instance where his skills truly shine is when he confronts and defeats Thanos after being ambushed by his group.

In simpler terms, Myung-Gi appears to be ruthless, showing no remorse for harming others if necessary. However, when it comes to Jun-hee, there seems to be a shift in his heart. Since both Gi-hun’s team and Hyun-ju’s teams seem to have formed an alliance over their care for Jun-hee, Myung-Gi might decide to join them. There’s also speculation that he may put himself at risk to protect her and their unborn child. As for the outcome of Squid Game Season 3, which is the last season, it’s uncertain who will survive. Here’s hoping that Gi-hun and more characters make it out alive.

Squid Game Season 3 will premiere on Netflix on June 27, 2025.
