In Squid Game season 2, episode 1, Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) uncovers a shocking truth when he cuts into his ear and removes a mysterious device.
This moment raises a major question: What was inside his ear? The answer reveals a sinister plan by the Squid Game organizers, setting the stage for the tension-filled season ahead.
Let’s explore the mystery behind the tracker and why Gi-hun was being watched.
Gi-Hun Realizes He Was Being Watched
The episode starts with Gi-hun at the airport, preparing to board a plane to the United States. However, after seeing the Salesman recruit new players, he realizes others are being drawn into the deadly games.
Gi-hun returns to Seoul, where he receives a phone call from the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun), who seems to know exactly where he is. Gi-hun quickly realizes that the only way the Front Man could track him was if he had been implanted with a tracker. He cuts into his ear and finds the device.
Why Was Gi-Hun Tracked?
There are two possibilities for why Gi-hun was tracked. One theory is that all players were implanted with a tracker when they were first brought to the island.
The other is that the Front Man anticipated Gi-hun could become a problem and decided to monitor him after his victory. Either way, Gi-hun was being watched long after leaving the game.
Gi-Hun’s Realization and His Next Steps
Gi-hun’s discovery of the tracker shows that the organizers never truly let go of him. It also sets the stage for his next steps in trying to take down the game’s creators. His swift action in removing the tracker symbolizes his determination to control his fate.
The tracker inside Gi-hun’s ear adds a chilling twist to Squid Game. Whether it was a precaution or a move by the Front Man, this development suggests Gi-hun’s fight against the game is far from over.
Fans will be eager to see how this impacts his mission to bring down the deadly game. Stay tuned for more updates as Squid Game season 2 unfolds.
