What the fuck even is his moral code?

He hunted down and stalked the fake marine for bitching out even though his retarded uprising would have failed anyways. But refused to kill the comedically evil old man and his gang when from what he understood it was literally the only thing that would have saved the baby.

In the final game he basically refused to do anything even though the rules made it blatantly clear someone has to die at each level. Him turning down the lunchbox plan cost 6 people their lives and he did it for zero reason.

All the people that beat lunchbox up were already dead, 333 and Gihun never expressed any desire to actually use him as a lunchbox, even wanted to kind of help, so he should have been a bro and actually sacrificed himself for them instead of being a crybaby.

That's the thing about gihun. He is dumb. He is unstable. He is prone to act on his emotions. He is stubborn.
Sure he was tracking down the coward, but Iam pretty sure he wasn't going to kill him, if the dude begged for his life.
But the dude was fighting back and this triggered this mentally unstable dumbass.

A more concrete acknowledgement that Gi-hun's actions actually mattered, and that his moral thesis, however imperfectly it was tested, was ultimately shown to be correct to his ideological adversary. There's maybe a hint of a change in Frontman's world view, but he doesn't really act differently afterward than he would had he not changed. Whatever impact Gi-hun's sacrifice may have had is reserved for sequel bait. Even the sense that the games have been shut down for a while due to blowing up the island is undermined by showing that, of course, this shit is happening in other places around the world. There's no real closure.

Season 1 ends with the philosophy of the main villain (001) being proven wrong. There was always an undeniable theme that humanity contains decency and that it matters not just for "moral victories" but to the state of the world.

It still happened, though. It seems like the thematically coherent ending to the story would be a small but substantial victory of human decency over the games. Gi-hun dying to save several people and stop the Korean games, whose clientele then simply do business elsewhere, would be about the right mix of humane and cynical to match S1's tone imo.

Why did the comic relief hired muscle man go from bumbling in over his head retard to ultimate detective, was he always supposed to be kind of smart but it only came out because detective onii-chan was racist against him for being a priv*te eye? It made me completely lose interest in the detective when he looks over at the captain who isn’t even faking his personality any more and is just death glaring at him, and he goes “no way alcohol-breath, captain park is my boy, he somehow recovered me from the sea after I was shot even though I have no memory of it, but I completely trust this old fuck”.

It pissed me off how the show tried to have it both ways. In the first season, the soldiers were like "This is a free and fair democracy. We will not impede the democratic process, and the majority of people will willingly vote to continue the games, which shows human greed because they value money over human lives". Then in the later seasons the soldiers were openly interfering in the elections, preventing people from arguing their case in front of everyone, handcuffing Gi-Hun so he couldn't vote, and arbitrarily adding the baby to the game. This inconsistency undermined the theme of human greed.

Literally all the show had to do was make Gi-Hun touch the button and then kill that baby’s father. He walks out with more winnings as the island is evacuated and decides to raise the child, honoring 222. He ends up reconnecting with his daughter, fully unaware of the global reach the games have.

I agree with your statement, but in Tolkien's work pure evil exists and it also doesn't compromise
At least not the biggest ones, Ungoliant was %100 uncompromising
That bitch didn't give a single fuck, I'm not arachnophobic and never were, but when I think that nigger was a god-sized spider that non of the gods ,good OR evil, even dare to confront, is scary
They didn't even chase that nigger down
They waged war against Melkor alright, but Ungoliant? "Fuck nope"
Not even fucking Tolkien dare to keep writing about it, he just recoiled from the pages, and when he sat down again, started to describe Old Tobby's flavour and funny dwarf hat colors

To be fair the female soldier managed to delete the guys digital records so after the island blows up they still can’t find him. Also they wouldn’t have found the island if the detective didnt intercept the guy escaping, which is what led to the self destruction of the island. So their actions weren’t entirely pointless.

It would have been much cooler if In-ho instead saw something realistic that was still exploitative and degrading like Squid Game (albeit to a lesser extent), like a tax loophole or smth. Although it would make the metaphor quite on the nose, it would be a cool moment.
Also, it feels lazy that there are Squid Games in America, as opposed to their own kind of activity. At the very least have them play something American rather than ddajjki. (Unless it's a commentary on how the rich are just as uncultured art-wise and aesthetically as the rest of us)

He also wouldn't have got addicted to the point of suffering withdrawals from just one pill. It might have been South Korea's zero tolerance for drugs stance showing through, it creates a charming ignorance to the reality of how drugs work. That, or it was just a plot device and you're just supposed to suspend your disbelief and accept the "this drug is something totally new and works much faster in all ways than known drugs" explanation.

That's the message the show is sending, I'm not getting into a debate over the practicality of it. But actually killing in cold blood is more difficult for most people than a simple matter of weighing the scales, and the whole point is that Gi-Hun isn't the sort of person who can make that choice without someone trying to kill him first.

He had no problem sacrificing the red team and killing people who were just doing their jobs because he hated the game just enough, but can't accept the packed lunch as if any of them would take ballots after someone got voted out. Gi-hun's a narcissist unwilling to bend for the greater good, but willing to decide who deserves death and who doesn't.

At the end of the day, Squid Game is a show with a moral about preserving your own humanity in terrible circumstances where it would be easier, and even perhaps more rational, not to. Agree with it or not, but it made its point fairly well.

No, he didn't. He balked at murdering the fake marine, and only killed him after he got the upper hand and fought back. It was also pretty obvious that he was in a delusional state at the time and looking to pin the blame on someone else. After killing the marine he was practically catatonic with grief and self-loathing, and only came out of it with the old woman's words and his promise to protect the baby.

I might bulge if it's 1 vs the rest of humanity but even if it were 1 vs 5 billion I would just watch.

Frontman calculated where his giant-moral-grand-standing head would land and put a soft spot with fake blood there

Yes, that's the Front Man's position, and he made the case for it. Gi-Hun's position was of the man who couldn't find it in himself to do that, and would give his own life to save an innocent child. Like it or not, but that was the moral of the story and it executed it pretty well in my opinion. The Front Man survived and Gi-Hun didn't, but the Front Man was moved enough by his failure to convince Gi-Hun that he made an effort to set things somewhat right with Gi-Hun's daughter, even as he stuck with his own path and choices. It's a good, consistent conclusion to the tale in my opinion, which was obviously meant to keep with Christian morality. The world isn't righteous, but a man can be.

Fighting back against a man chasing you with a knife doesn’t justify chasing them down again and strangling them to death

If I were a trillionaire, I'd just sit on my yacht and have hot ladies all around me all day, not watch and bet on people dying. I don't know, I might be different.

Is it really righteousness if he fully knows that his actions only lead to more death? Is being righteous really just valuing your creed above other people's lives and your own?

If you're the type to become a trillionaire, all the conventional ways to attain pleasure will lose their luster with enough time because your appetite is bottomless and you will never reach contentment.
