Summary
The Front Man watches intently as two pink soldiers carry Gi-hun down the hall, heading back to staff dorms. Gi-hun seems half-aware, his body quaking from the beating he took. The former player is insistent on walking by himself despite how badly each step seems to hurt.
In-ho finds Seong Gi-hun fascinating. It was clear Gi-hun wanted to become a player again so that he might be able to save the others and end the games once and for all - which is exactly why the In-ho made him a soldier instead. He wanted to watch Gi-hun fight against his control and struggle to save even a single life as a guard. Maybe that way he would finally learn that this place is inevitable.
That is also one of the reasons In-ho decided to go undercover as another soldier, so he might get closer to Gi-hun and understand him better - even if only to use that against him.Regardless, through physical and emotional torture, the Front Man would finally break Player 456.
It was only a matter of time.OR: Squid Game 2, but the Front Man/Hwang In-ho tries to break Gi-hun by making him a soldier instead of a player.

Summary
“Look at me, In-ho-ya,” he laughed, bitter and hollow. “I barely recognize myself anymore, and it’s all your fault.”
After discovering Young-il's face under the Front Man's mask, Seong Gi-hun is thrust nine years into past and trapped in yet another cycle of the games. But it doesn't take long for him to discover who is playing alongside him— Hwang In-ho, the future Front Man.
So he takes upon himself one more mission, his only desire that still anchors him to the living world: kill the Front Man before he's even allowed to come into existence.
Kill Hwang In-ho.
Sort of a Role Reversal Time Travel AU in which a jaded Gi-hun is the one staring down In-ho as he plays in the 2015 Games and plotting his downfall. And slowly but surely, loses his own humanity in the process.
