Op basis van de verhaallijn van Squid Game Seizoen 3, wint speler 456 (Seong Gi-hun) niet het spel in de traditionele zin, maar vindt hij een tragisch einde.
He kisses the baby and places her on the ground before looking into the camera: “We are not horses. We are humans.” Then, Player 456, our audience surrogate in this deadly game, falls to his death. In sacrificing his life for the baby, Gi-hun is choosing humanity.
Why does Gi-hun (Player 456) choose to die? Squid Game's creator did not initially plan for Gi-hun to perish. But as Hwang strategized Seasons 2 and 3, he realized he needed a resolution that would bring “both the game and Gi-hun's journey” to a fitting and resounding close.
Player 456 will need those qualities in Season 3, as he continues to strive to take down Squid Game forever. Gi-hun will find opposition at every turn from the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun), and his army of guards, who confront the players with scarier games, deadlier threats, and mounting mind games.
In the end, Gi-hun a.k.a. Player 456 (Lee Jung-jae) lost Squid Game. Netflix's hit Korean drama has never been light and optimistic (understatement of the century), but the series ended on a particularly dark note.
By now, nearly everyone associates “Squid Game” with one number: 45.6 billion. That's the amount of won the winner of the game can take home if they play to the very end. That number also means the 455 other contestants who played alongside the winner have been killed.
Season 3, Episode 6 is the planned series finale; Squid Game will not return for Season 4. Series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk confirmed this decision with a letter to fans (seen below) last July. In the note, he announced that Season 3 would be Squid Game's final season and that the series finale would air in 2025.
The director of that show ALREADY said that he have an intended to have player 456 died in season 3 to wrap it up so ITS OVER.
Some fans may have been hoping to see him return somehow in the final stretch of the show, and indeed, he did so — just not how you might think. Thanos returned to the screen, briefly, in a surprising moment in Season 3's penultimate episode.
SHE DIED. WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENED, THEY LOADED HER INTO THE COFFIN.
Following the game's conclusion, Hwang In-ho would take the baby out of the game's facility, then secretly place her under the care of his brother, Jun-ho, leaving behind a credit card containing the money the baby had won.
But from the movie this is of no doubt the front man, the money taken was given to Gi Hun daughter in America. Simple. It's the front man going to 456s apartment to collect the rest of his winnings from the first game and brought it to the bank and gave the bank card to 456s daughter after he died.
Gi-hun (Player 456)
Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) takes his own life in Sky Squid Game by falling to his death. Because of the game's complicated rules, Myung-gi's death does not “count,” and Gi-hun must decide between taking his own life or sacrificing Jun-hee's baby.
45.6 billion won is equal to $31.42 million USD.
Jane Wong (黃珍妮 Huáng Zhēnnī?) is the actress and model, who portrayded VIP Jennifer in Season 3 of the Netflix TV series Squid Game.
Su-bong, a.k.a. Thanos/Player 230 (Choi Seung-hyun) — who served as Gi-hun's main antagonist in the second season — was killed during a fight one night in the barracks, stabbed to death by Myung-gi/Player 333.
Josh Brolin's Thanos will return in a 2026 Marvel Cinematic Universe release, with the project's first trailer confirming more trauma for 1 MCU hero.
Seasons 2 and 3 returned that winner (Lee Jung-jae, who played Seong Gi-hun, aka Player 456) to the arena, but also delved into the lives of the armed, pink-suited guards and a bulldog detective determined to shut the whole system down.
VIP 3 and Player 125 are not the same!!!!! On Social Media all the people are thinking that Player 125 is secretly VIP 3 (Deer Mask VIP), because they are supposedly played by the same Actor. But that's incorrect.
No, Lee Jung-jae's character Seong Gi-hun will not return in Squid Game Season 4, as Season 3 is confirmed to be the final chapter of the series.
Where does the baby end up? The show picks up six months later. Detective Hwang Jun-ho (Wi Ha-joon) receives a package: the infant, along with a debit card and a note that reads, “The winner.” The final image shows the newborn cradled in Jun-ho's arms.
