Nam-Gyu

Height - 175 centimetres
Age - 28 years old
Dressed in a green sports suit, which is given to everyone at the beginning of the game with a 124 number. Has a neck-length straight black hair.

Nam-gyu is shown to be a more violent, cruel and sadistic than even Thanos is. While Thanos treats his teammates with respect and is even upset by Gyeong-su's death, Nam-gyu bullies both Se-mi and Min-su frequently, to the point where even Thanos calls him out for it. While as not nearly as unhinged as Thanos, Nam-gyu is still somewhat mentally disturbed. Like Thanos, he doesn’t care about using other people to his advantage and sees them as disposable. He also shares Thanos' vengeful nature, and sees any comrade who opposes him as a traitor. He can also act very rudely towards others people and displays crude and inappropriate behavior. In line with his reckless behavior, Nam-gyu states that he believes an individual can escape the fear of death by telling themselves they don't care about whether they live or die. He's afraid to die, but tries to ignore that fear. Probably could kill someone with no hesitation. He understands his own emotions really well, but he's bad at empathy.

Before the games, Nam-gyu worked as a club promoter at Club Pentagon, where he became acquainted with the rapper Thanos. He was an active drug user as well, having tried nearly every street drug he could obtain through his position in the clubbing scene.

In 2024, Nam-gyu invested large amounts of money in a cryptocurrency called Dalmatian, on the advice of the YouTube channel MG Coin. Unfortunately, the currency turned out to be a scam, and Nam-gyu lost over ₩300 million when the rug was pulled. This led him to participate in the Squid Games, where he hoped to find a quick way to settle his financial problems.
