One key plot that played on the minds of Squid Game viewers was the mysterious Front Man, who was revealed to be played by actor, Lee Byung-hun, in the final moments of season 1.
However The Front Man’s identity was still shrouded in secrecy, until now. Season 2 kicks off a couple of years after Gi-hun wins the games and is after revenge, and in the second instalment, there is an unlikely bond between him and The Front Man.
Initially, The Front Man joins the game under the player number 001, but it isn’t long before he forms an alliance with Gi-hun, who remains oblivious to 001’s true persona.
In the first season, Lee Byung-hun portrayed The Front Man with a focus on his behind-the-scenes role, as he essentially oversaw and managed the game events. (The Hollywood Reporter Interview)
He went on saying: “Since Gi-hun isn’t aware that Player 001 is actually the Mastermind, he believes he can confide in him and lean on him. His confidence remains strong that if they join forces, they could halt the game and bring an end to everything.
Some of their on-screen dialogues carry an intriguing tension, which becomes even more palpable in later scenes. Audience members are surely in for a captivating journey as they witness the evolving dynamics between these characters.
You can feel confident that all audience queries about The Front Man’s motives will be addressed as Lee Byung-hun has confirmed this will happen by providing insights into his character’s background through various flashbacks scattered across the series.
He shared with the media that given how his life has unfolded, it appears his perspective on humanity and the world is heavily influenced by deep-seated disappointment. He seems to believe there’s no hope for mankind, according to him, this conviction shapes his decisions – at least, that’s my interpretation of the character.
Viewers will have to stick with the story to see if Gi-hun will eventually discover the truth.
