jungbae !!!
jungbae things i like:
when he votes O and immediately feels so guilty and awful about it + scared of gihun being mad at him, so he goes and puts himself in the naughty corner and daeho has to drag him back over lol
the one scene where he's crying and apologising to his wife in his sleep (WHY DON'T PPL TALK ABT THIS MORE. WHY DON'T I TALK ABT THIS MORE MYSELF, FOR THAT MATTER)
how he immediately cups gihun's face and grabs his hands to make sure he's real when they first meet again
the scene where he gives his bread to junhee and is like "take it..... i don't deserve to eat :(" but then when daeho is like "well in that case can i have your milk too" jungbae just fucking glares at him
in general the way that him and daeho are a comedic duo. ppl often characterise them as having a father son type dynamic but that's wrong imo. they're more like a younger coworker and an older coworker comedy duo from a sitcom who are constantly slacking off and getting into shenanigans together. they would get matching tattoos and shit i think. brothers 4 lyfe
how he was 100% the more normal, calm, serious and emotionally well-adjusted friend in the gihun + jungbae duo pre squid game (i feel like jungbae often gets characterised as the silly sunshine one and gihun as the serious one bc of their dynamic in s2, but i think that jungbae was 100% a kind of rock/steadier calming influence for gihun pre squid game, from what we see in ep1)
please add your own thoughts
please just talk to me abt jungbae

Takes place in the same universe as this: (x)
Gihun is the one who suggests they get a pet.
Sangwoo refuses at first but he is immediately outvoted by Gayeong, Cheol...and his own mother!
When they go to the shelter, there is one dog who nips and pulls at the hem of Gihun's shirt. Gihun turns around and sees that it is a puppy with one leg missing.
"She chose us, Sangwoo!"
They adopt the puppy and named her "Lucky."
Lucky is immediately greeted with pets and kisses the moment they get back home.
Sangwoo initially acts indifferent toward Lucky, claiming he only agreed to adopt her to make everyone happy and he "isn't much of a pet person,” but the family catches him sneaking treats to her within the first day.
Lucky becomes particularly attached to Sangwoo’s mother and the puppy ends up following her around the house and curling up at her feet whenever she sits down.
Gihun, being the softie he is, lets Lucky sleep in his and Sangwoo's bed on the first night, much to Sangwoo’s dismay, except when he wakes up, Lucky is curled up against Sangwoo instead.
All of the beds in the penthouse have ramps attached to them so Lucky can easily get on their beds for cuddles.
Much like the kids and Sangwoo's mom, Lucky is incredibly spoiled. Both Sangwoo and Gihun buy her an absurd amount of things, including gourmet dog treats, an orthopedic bed, a custom-fitted harness for better support, a toy box overflowing with plushies, and even a personalized name tag that has her name on it.
Lucky goes to obedience school and every time the trainer mentions how good she does, they always take her out for a treat.
They make sure she gets all her shots and she is groomed whenever it's needed.
Whenever Sangwoo and Gihun need to concentrate on work, with Sangwoo on reviewing contracts for their real estate firm and Gihun on developing new recipes for their restaurant chain, Gayeong and Cheol are always happy to keep Lucky entertained.
Lucky becomes very protective of their family, especially Cheol and Gayeong, barking at anyone who gets too close to them at the park.
Sangwoo and Gihun have become that couple who put their dog in a stroller.
Lucky has an uncanny ability to sense when Sangwoo or Gihun are stressed, always nudging her head under their hands to force them to pet her.
One day, while strolling through the park with their furbaby, Sangwoo and Gihun catch the scent of dalgona. Gihun freezes as anxiety rushes over him, but Sangwoo’s touch and Lucky’s warmth help him steady himself, allowing them to continue their walk home.
Whenever it's raining and Sangwoo's too consumed by the negative feelings to even leave the bedroom, Gihun is there by his side and Lucky is curled up on Sangwoo's chest.
The family isn’t religious, but they still celebrate Christmas. So on their first Christmas with Lucky, one of the presents has her name on it too.
Gihun loves talking to Lucky as if she understands everything. He often narrate his day to her while cooking, and Sangwoo finds it incredibly adorable.
She has a habit of bringing her toys to Sangwoo’s mom who is always happy to play along.
Gayeong and Cheol always match Lucky's energy and the three are always playing together.
When one family member goes out, Lucky waits by the door until they return, wagging her tail so hard that her whole body wiggles.
Despite Lucky’s missing leg, she is the fastest thing in the house.
On their anniversary, Gihun surprises Sangwoo with a framed photo of their whole family: him, Sangwoo, the kids, Sangwoo's mom… and Lucky, front and center.

Hey hey, as a librarian, can I just say don’t pace yourself at the library. I get a lot of customers saying “oh I shouldn’t get too many books out at once” but like you should!!!! Max out your card, take everything we have on a subject you’re interested in, make a book fort in your home. We love that shit! It doesn’t matter if you read them or not; just take them for an adventure and bring them back whenever they’re due!
For public libraries, one of the ways we secure funding year to year is lending. Governments don’t want to fund more books if they’re not being used and the way we measure use is by issues. Regardless of whether you read it or not, whether you have it for a day or a month, if you issue it to your library card, we get the stats! It makes the library look good!
Help your local library; get books out even if you know you can’t read them all!
I think that sang-woo is pretty much canonically gay but like closeted. "My son doesn't have a wife yet because he has really high standards" so you mean he likes men?? If he had high standards him and gi-hun wouldn't be doing all of that
"i love this character and i hope they get nothing but peace and joy for the rest of their life"
