Who was Front Man in Squid Game?
In perhaps the most shocking scene of the whole show, Front Man was revealed to be the brother of policeman Jun-ho.
Jun-ho had gone undercover to the Squid Game island after he overheard Gi-Hun telling the police about the game, and he realised that his missing brother had been in possession of the same card as him.
He posed as one of the staff throughout, and was under the impression that his brother had been one of the players.
It was shown that Jun-ho deeply cared about his sibling, who had previously donated a kidney to him.
After he had risked his life to find his brother, the Jun-ho managed to escape after stealing a diving suit - and he swam to a nearby island.
However, the Front Man and his staff managed to find him, and Front Man revealed himself to his brother.
Jun-ho was then shot by his own brother, but not before he sent videos of evidence about Squid Game to his police colleagues.
We don't yet know, however whether these videos were delivered - as the signal on the island was poor.
