The article analyzes the unsettling portrayal of a CGI baby in the penultimate episode, representing innocence amidst dark themes. Gi-hun, who has abandoned his previous mission, is focused on protecting Jun-hee's daughter. The contrast between his character and In-ho's violent tendencies is significant; Gi-hun's moral struggle is evident as he remembers the past intervention of Sae-byeok, highlighting his refusal to replicate violence despite the grim circumstances. This episode encourages viewers to reflect on morality, parental roles, and the impact of innocence in a brutal environment.
When Gi-hun hovers over Jeong-dae, he recalls how Sae-byeok stopped him from killing Sang-woo, reaffirming he is 'not that kind of person'—and he backs away.
The baby symbolizes innocence, offering a disturbing contrast to adult characters who flirt with infanticide, making it hard to connect emotionally with her due to her uncanny nature.
