When facing Gi-hun in the Squid Game, Sang-woo is willing even to kill his friend to win. Sang-woo later kills a dying Sae-byeok, which further infuriates Gi-hun before they confront each other in the final game. After Sang-woo killed Player 017 to complete the Glass Stepping Stones game within the time limit, Gi-hun who has a naturally kind heart, becomes surprised and does not understand Sang-woo's decisions, resulting in Sang-woo cutting all ties with Gi-hun and Sae-byeok and going rogue in order to win. To ensure that the games are not interrupted again, he also makes sure other players don't start another vote to terminate the games, reminding them that they already came too far to stop and this choice will make previous deaths become meaningless. As the number of killed players increases, Sang-woo goes down a spiral, becoming more ruthless and disregarding others' lives. Following the Marbles game, Sang-woo tries to comfort Gi-hun about the death of Il-nam, saying that he only knew the old man in the games and points out to Player 069 who is in a worse situation as he had to play against his own wife.Дespite caring about Gi-hun, he lets it clear that he will do anything to survive and win the prize. Sang-woo also seems concerned for his friend when he looks at a remorseful Gi-hun right after the Tug-of-War and later when Gi-hun seems to have woken up from a nightmare. When Sang-woo decides not to tell the others about the Honeycomb game (probably as a strategic move to keep the advantage to himself), he becomes alarmed when Gi-hun chooses the hardest option, the umbrella, and later shows relief when his friend ends up surviving the game. They are seen teaming up for most of the games, Sang-woo helps him during the Red Light, Green Light game and they protect each other when Jang Deok-su and his gang attack and murder the other contestants after the lights are out. He also shares friendship since childhood with Gi-hun, making him the closest one to Sang-woo among the players. Though it is shown that Sang-woo is visibly shaken or even remorseful by this as he hears the gunshot that ends Ali's life. However, when he discovers that they have to face each other and one of them will die, Sang-woo does what it takes to save his own skin, even manipulating Ali and letting him die to grant his own survival. Despite this, Sang-woo develops friendship and trust with Ali, to the point that he decides to team up with him during the Marbles game, believing that the two of them will be a great duo against other players. However, Sang-woo tries not to get attached to other players, knowing about the high chances of them dying, including by facing him during the games. Despite his group not officially having a leader, Sang-woo and Gi-hun usually act together as co-leaders, making all the decisions and planning for their team. After the games were interrupted by the majority vote, this also leads him to almost take his own life in his motel bathroom, before being offered another chance to rejoin the Squid Game.Дuring most of the games, Sang-woo acts as a good teammate. Because of the total failure after being constantly praised by everyone for his achievement as the top student of his class in Seoul National University, he does not have the courage to return to his mother and tell her the truth of his current situation. His whole desperation to win the games is due to him needing the money to prevent his mother's possessions being taken after he used them as financial collateral in his failed investments. He also truly cares for his mother, as she is his entire reason for joining the Squid Game in the first place. This is shown as he helps Ali in Seoul and his teammates during the games, especially when the generous action will not bring any harm to his own life. He also can quickly think in good solutions to problems even under extreme situations, as seen when he saves his team during the Tug-of-War game.Дespite showing a cruel and self-centered side during the final few games, he is polite and not really heartless, especially in the beginning of the Squid Game.

Being very intelligent, he does not fall for tricks easily and is capable of manipulating others, a skill he uses to favor himself during the games. Although Sang-woo is strong-willed, his willingness usually causes him to exploit certain situations in his own favor, as he is fully aware that he will need to go extreme lengths in order to win. Sang-woo is a very intelligent and rational individual who is determined to win the game. We've already come too far to end this now.
