He allows Gi-Hun to win anyway, and everyone (including the audience) is left weeping over their lost friends…but are they all really lost? Gi-Hun exploits this and captures as many marbles as possible until he discovers the old man was actually lucid the whole time and aware of the deception. Gi-Hun and player 001 try to play, but Player 001 is suffering from a lapse in lucidity and his dementia is causing him to want to look for his childhood house instead of playing marbles. ![]() Sang-woo reveals himself to be a villain by tricking Ali into giving up his marbles.
