10 Most Shocking Moments In Squid Game
1. Wait, He Was Behind It All Along?!
If you thought the twists and turns were over just because the games came to an end, then you were sorely mistaken. In fact, the climax of the Squid Games left one lingering mystery: the host's identity. It's safe to say that no one saw this shocking twist coming as Gi-Hun pulled up to a hospital bed and saw his Gganbu, still alive and behind everything.
After winning the games, Gi-Hun decided to return to his old life, refusing to use the money he won and living in squalor. However, one fateful day, he was invited by the host of the games to come chat, and when he arrived, he found out it was his old friend Il-Nam.
Player 001 was easily loveable as he was sweet, jovial and proved himself to be a worthy partner, despite his old age. He was one of the few things in the show that seemed sacred, so when you found out that he'd been the orchestrator of everything, it was genuinely upsetting.
The shock came out of nowhere and made re-watching the show knowing who player 001 really was all the more fun. What a twist!
