Summary
One rose. Then another. Scarlet, white, pink - each one of them left by the Frontman himself feels like a careful probe along the fragile border between them. At first, Gi-hun destroys them furiously, but the flowers keep appearing in his dark life. On his doorstep. In abandoned buildings. Even atop his own bed.
Gi-hun throws them away. Then he keeps one. Then he starts waiting for the next. And somewhere along the way, he realizes the thorns cut the giver’s hands like knives. They split open his armor, let something alive bleed through. And oh, Gi-hun has never been able to hurt anything alive.
This love begins with a rose.

Summary
In-ho has one chance to convince Gi-hun to join him as his right-hand-man, or else the VIPs want him dead. He agrees.
Because In-ho is right. The rebellion didn't work. It was never going to work. The players are simply too far removed from the people really in charge. Even killing the Front Man would only result in a replacement Front Man. But as the Front Man's protégé, Gi-hun can make a difference. He can do what he can for the players from above, rather than below. He can investigate the gold-masked men. He can scheme.
There's light in the darkness. In-ho helps Gi-hun get Ga-yeong back. He teaches him how to fight, how to survive in this deadly world. Slowly, slowly, they begin to trust each other. (The kissing happens long before the trust.)
Gi-hun uses his new power, undreamt of in his old life, to do what he never did before: think only of others. And the luxury helps, the high-end alcohol helps, but of course he's still tortured by guilt. But at least they're tortured together, and take sanctuary in each other. Gi-hun gets to fight in favor of the players; In-ho gets to not be alone. They both got what they wanted.
Begins immediately following the events of S2.

Summary
If this wasn’t love, then his entire life had been a lie, and he refused to believe that. He refused to believe it wasn’t real, that he had done what he’d done and become what he’d become for nothing. He refused to believe his feelings for Gi-hun were just an illusion, or him finally going insane. No. This was real. This had to be real.
The rebellion never happens, In-ho and Gi-hun play Hide and Seek, they get a little freaky afterwards (of course), but their story doesn't end there: in this universe, In-ho actually has the balls to do something about his feelings.

Summary
Then that's when he saw it. Subtle, barely noticeable, but unmistakably there. Gi-hun had twitched. He stopped, turning back around and kneeling down to his level. He gently removed his glove, then slowly placed two fingers on the pulse point of his neck.
Yes.
or
Gi-hun doesn’t die in the last game, and In-ho does everything in his power to save him.

Summary
Set during Gi-hun's confrontation with the Frontman in Season 3, but instead of talking, Gi-hun acts on his rage.

Summary
“Kill the trash, stay with me.” It almost sounded pleading. Gi-hun looked at him, face twitching, but otherwise left the request without a reply.
“We could have a future together,” In-ho finds himself foolishly saying. “Let me keep you,” He mutters, before Gi-hun makes his leave. It makes the other man pause in his steps, looking back at the face of the partner, of the player he loved so dearly. Dearly enough to give his own life for him to come back. And he did, but at what cost?
Or, instead of indifference, the love still prevailed.

Summary
Of course the Frontman had seen him coming, foreseen the naïve act of bravery on his brother’s behalf, and intercepted their attack at every single turn. He’d even gone so far as to infiltrate the games, posing as a player – player 001, ironically – just to mess with Gi-hun’s head.
And he hates himself over it. He hates that the Frontman got to him, tricked him, deceived him so, so easily. He hates that he’s doomed to trust so easily, to allow a charming smile and a heated gaze fool him. Young-il never existed. He was carefully constructed, specifically designed to infiltrate Gi-hun’s group and manipulate.
-
Gi-hun speaks to the Frontman more than once, and uses his infatuation as a manipulation tactic. S3 rewrite.

Summary
“Young-il! I know you’re there! Face me, you coward! FACE ME!”
His voice bounced off the walls, ragged with fury and heartbreak. In-ho couldn’t bring himself to look away. Gi-hun stood alone, Jun-hee’s baby cradled against his chest, swaying slightly as if the weight might drag him down.
The VIPs beside him stirred. He could hear the rustle of fur, the clink of ice in crystal glasses, the irritation of people unaccustomed to dealing with real human emotion.
“What’s he doing?” Eagle asked lazily. “He won, why is he so angry?”
“You’re asking why the maniac who came back willingly is angry?” Panther replied, already bored again.
But In-ho knew. He was daring In-ho to talk to him again. Because they both knew that he had just lost. When Player 333—one who had proven himself to be nothing but selfish and self-serving—had said, “Look after her,” then started the game, and thrown himself off the platform before Gi-hun could even blink, Gi-hun had proven that his faith in humanity wasn’t misplaced.

Summary
“Why did you save me?” Gi-hun whispers one night.
Jun-hee is fast asleep, wrapped up in a tight blanket. In-ho looks startled when he asks him such a simple, yet profound, question. He sets down his book on the nightstand table and gazes at him with those eyes that haunt his dreams.
“I couldn’t bear to watch you die,” he explains.
OR: The Fix-It Fanfic I had to write after the grief and sorrow of that terrible series finale.

Inho can't grasp the fact that even until the very end, they were the complete opposite: like yin and yang. One fell as a human. the other, inhumane.

Summary
“I want to hear you,” In-ho rather demands. There’s really nothing to worry about, if only Gi-hun knew. He has already told the guards not to let anyone in.
“Ah…” Gi-hun continues to moan.
“Yeah, just like that,” In-ho tells, smiling in satisfaction.
“Young-il… Young-il…” Gi-hun calls out.
Unfortunately, In-ho doesn’t feel much from that. He wishes for Gi-hun to call out his real name but he knows Gi-hun won’t even want to be near him if he finds out who In-ho really is. He won’t even feel the same when he does. The one Gi-hun likes is Young-il, this fake identity that In-ho has created to disguise himself just to be with Gi-hun. It’s not In-ho who Gi-hun likes. Somehow, that irritates him, a scowl making its way across his face. Ah. What has Gi-hun done to him… He swears he’s getting stupid day by day because of Gi-hun. Is he jealous of his own self right now?
OR:
When you’re so down bad for one of your victims that you disguise yourself to have one chance with him.

Summary
In-ho doesn't care who wins, he doesn't even care that the little rebellion ended the competiton, he doesn't even care that his phone is blowing up from the VIPs. He has Seong Gi-hun in the palm of his hand and like hell is he letting this man walk away from him ever again.
In other words, Hwang In-ho forces the hand of Seong Gi-hun to agree to work under him. Whatever that could possibly mean. Gi-hun finds himself in a Busan penthouse following around In-ho, or rather, having In-ho follow him around.
