Summary
Twenty three days he’s been on this corner. Twenty three days of rain, shine, heat, bugs. It started off as a good idea, but now, Gi-hun is fairly certain he’s only coming out here because it’s been twenty three days. And if there’s one thing about Seong Gi-hun, it’s that he does not give up easily.
Every day, the 456 bus to downtown Seoul turns this corner, and every day, it gets closer to clipping him.

Summary
His childhood friend drops to his knees. Sang-woo pushes himself up, scrabbling at the ground. He crawls over to Gi-hun, blinking rapidly in utter disbelief.
“Hyung,” he croaks, “why did you do that?”
Why would he sacrifice himself when he could have won? Why would he give it all up for a wretch like Sang-woo who had killed people in cold-blood? He had murdered the girl that Gi-hun had a foolish attachment to, and Gi-hun still chose to save him.
Gi-hun was an idiot. He was truly a stupid idiot who had no business being here. It was his own fault. Sang-woo won because Seong Gi-hun was an idiot with a bleeding heart.
---
Gi-hun sacrifices himself for Sang-woo during the Squid Game. Sang-woo never forgives him for it, even as he wakes up and finds himself in the games all over again.
