Cho Su-jin may also refer to Player 187, the player who won the 5th Squid Game.

Cho Su-jin (조수진 Jo Su-jin?), also known as Player 005, is a woman who participated the 33rd Squid Game in 2020.

History[]

Cho Su-jin was born in either 1988 or 1989 in Busan. After graduating from school, she worked at Mihwa Department Store in an unspecified capacity before eventually being fired due to gambling. She was unable to find work afterward and incurred heavy amounts of debt. As of 2020, she was living with her father.[2]

After being contacted by Squid Game staff, Su-jin decided to join a high-risk competition in order to win large amounts of money. She was picked up, sedated, and transported to the island where the games take place. After waking up in a large room with 455 other people, she signed a consent form and had her photo taken.

Cho Su-jin managed to pass the first game, Red Light, Green Light. During the voting, she voted to stop playing the games along with a narrow majority of the other players and was sent home.[3]

She rejoined the games when they resumed weeks later. During Sugar Honeycombs, she can be seen behind Byeong-gi while deciding which shape to choose. She successfully survived that game, as well as the Special Game and Tug of War, where she was part of Team Eight.

Death[]

In Marbles, Player 005 was paired up with Player 183. They were both eliminated that game, presumably as a result of cheating.

Trivia[]

  • Cho Su-jin shares her name with the winner of the 5th Squid Game, Player 187.
  • Her name was originally listed as Cho Seung-yeon on the files. However, at one point, for unknown reasons, it was edited to Cho Su-jin.
  • Cho Su-jin was the first female player to join the games

Mistakes[]

  • Su-jin's player file states that she began attending school in 2005 and graduated in 1982.
  • Another 005 in tug of war is seen wearing glasses in Team 8. This 005 is also shown as a male.
  • Another 005 caught as being a middle aged man is shown at Red Light, Green Light. The actor of mistake supposedly was 005 but the reason is he had player 131's jacket.
  • Another 005 that was seen in Red Light, Green Light when snipers trying to shoot the players that have didn't finish the first game.
  • When we see her corpse it's a male. appearances are most likely due to a mistake on the director's part.
  • Su-Jin appearance mostly portrayed by male actors rather than her own gender. The real one is seen in the voting scene and sugar honeycombs
  • On her player file it states that her father was born on 16th December 1900 which would be impossible since it would outrun the average korean male life expectancy
