Seong Gihun (player 456) last words
“We are not horses. We are humans. Humans are…” hold deep symbolic and emotional weight. Though the sentence trails off, the meaning is clear and powerful.#SquidGame #SquidGameS3 #SquidGameSeason3 #SquidGame3 pic.twitter.com/ODUtnY2S4h— • (@rayainalif) June 27, 2025
Player 222 – The Newborn Girl
The original Player 222 entered the game pregnant. During the hide and seek, she gave birth to a newly born female baby. Later, she died but handed the infant to Seong Gi-Hun. Player 456 promised to rescue the baby at any cost.
The newborn baby brings a big twist to the game, as the host decides to make her a player too by giving her the mother’s tag number. After eliminating everyone from the game, Gi-Hun puts the child on top and jumps from it. This results in Player 222 emerging as the winner of the deadly game.
Later, the Front Man handed over the child to Hwang Jun-ho, the Police officer.

Player 125 – Park Min-Su
Park Min-Su was the first person to be eliminated from the Squid Game’s finals. He became addicted to Thanos’s drug pills, which haunted him with memories of Se-mi, who died in front of him. When Player 333 eliminated him, he was still in a flashback with Se-mi’s memories and was eliminated from the game.

Player 333 – Lee Myung-gi
Lee-Myung-gi was Jun-hee’s boyfriend and the father of the newly born baby. Despite being a father, Player 333 failed to protect her daughter and instead attempted to use her to win the game.
When he was in the final moments with Seong Gi-Hun, he ordered him to give her the child, so that he could eliminate Player 456 right now, and afterwards, the child would win the game. However, his evil intentions never get fulfilled as the former winner eliminates him from the game and protects Player 222.
Player 333 is so selfish man, maybe he’s just playing the game but he deserve to die anyways. He was really wanna gave up his kid for the cash. So pathetic #SquidGameSeason3 pic.twitter.com/hIZZn1kmie

Player 100 – Im Jeong-dae
Player 100 is often referred to as the old man in the deadly game. He tried his best to survive till the end and used his manipulation skills as the best tool. He was also an antagonist to Gi-Hun’s ideas and criticized him multiple times during the game.
Player 100 has a loan of around 10 billion WON, and this is why he attempted to win the game to repay the loan. But Player 333 eliminated him when he reached the top four contestants list.
