Two faces, One love
Seong Gi-hun, Korea's most beloved actor, never expected his life to change at a single gala dinner. There he meets the mysterious and charismatic Hwang In-ho-only to later discover a shocking truth: In-ho is not one man, but two identical twins, In-ho and Byung-hun, secretly ruling the underworld as the ruthless mafia empire Shadow Storm. When fate forces Gi-hun into marriage with them, his world turns into a storm of secrets, jealousy, passion, and forbidden love. Between mafia wars, hidden tenderness, and his own rising career, Gi-hun must decide if his heart can truly belong to both men... while the twins fight to prove their love is real. Dark romance, soft family moments, comedy, mafia drama, and the promise of a love strong enough to overcome everything-even fate.![In-Ho's POV.

In-Ho's POV. [ 001 x 456 ]
001 x 456 / Seong Gi-Hun x Hwang In-Ho enemies to strangers to lovers to enemies to maybe lovers Fluff / Angst THIS IS NOT PROOF READ YET.. (and probably never will be im lazy) Ever since Seong Gi-Hun, a finalist of the 33rd squid games, decided that he wanted to give up the money to save his friend, the Frontman became curious. It's not often that someone with such pure intentions makes it into the 6th game, let alone win. Of course, that feeling was quickly brushed off and forgotten. Atleast until Gi-Hun made it his life's mission to stop the games once and for all. In-Ho caught wind of Gi-Hun's determination and decided to let him join back into the game while he himself also joins. Though he should be stopping the plan he is also curious to see how this plays out. Author's Note: I'm writing this because i keep seeing people completely mischaracterize In-Ho for some reason. I've been thoroughly studying the Hwang Brothers lore that we got in season 1 & 2 because I've just been hyperfixating on those silly middle aged men. Im just gonna say it, English is not my first language im actually German. This fanfic is also on AO3!!Complete
when the mask falls
Ten years ago, Hwang In-ho vanished - leaving behind his badge, his honor, and the woman who once saved him from himself. Now, he returns to the deadly Game he helped create, wearing the mask of a player. His mission is clear: stop Seong Gi-hun from destroying it all. But when he sees Han So-ra - the woman who once was his light - standing among the contestants, everything begins to unravel. She's not the bright, stubborn cop he remembers. She's hollow. Dying. Unafraid. And for the first time, the Front Man feels something he swore he'd buried. In a world where survival has a price, will he protect her... or destroy her? A/N : Here I have mixed all 3 seasons The theme is same as squid game but storyline is not exactly the same. I've taken characters and games from all 3 seasons and made up a different story line.Complete

Do you still have faith in people? That was the question he never answered. Maybe it's better that way, because if he said no, I'd have to face what we've both become. But if he said yes, does that mean there's still a chance for someone like me to be seen as human? I don't need forgiveness. I just need to know if he could ever trust me. - In-ho That was the question I never answered. If I say no, can I die knowing I've lost my own humanity? But if I say yes, can I live with the possibility that I might end up trusting him? And if I do, what happens if he breaks it? - Gi-hun [ SEASON 3 FIC CONTINUATION ]Complete
