could you do any of the Squid Game cast with an f reader who's insecure about her weight? I know Korean beauty standards but let a girl dream okay๐
valid girl, here treat yourself! Lets's all be in denial and pretend Canon didn't happen. ๐
ft. Salesman, Frontman, Thanos, Dae-ho (388), Se-mi (380), Nam-gyu (124), Hyun-ju (120), Jun-hee (222), Masked Officer and Gi-hun (456)
Headcanons. Mentions of pregnancy and fatphobia. A tiny bit suggestive but mostly just random whimsy stuff. Some could also be read platonic I guess. Not proofread. Spoiler-free.
The only thing stopping me from including more characters was the GIF limit.
Salesman
Sorry, but this guy will definetly be a bully about it. Not like your weight is bothering him at all, it's simply a habit of his to go after other's insecurities for his own entertainment.
Doesn't really think that much about how his words affect you and even gets a bit irritated at you being "too sensitive". In the end however, he'll always make up for it with expensive gifts and extravagant dates to remind you of "your status".
Also, prepare for a looong lecture of him trying to express his emotions but failing horrible, talking about how it's illogical to think he'd date someone he isn't attracted to since "clearly you don't serve any other purpose to me" ughh he's trying okay.
If anyone else dares commenting on your body on the other hand? Let's just say he's gonna try out some new games on them.
This man lacks any basic empathy, so don't expect him to be sympathetic. If you complain, you'll get rational solutions, but he's very dedicated with it. Already makes mental spreadsheets to better your workout and eating habits.
In his eyes, as his partner you should carry yourself with dignity, and it's his mission to make you finally see your worth.
Frontman / Hwang In-ho
Is 100% responsible for your weight gain. This man is an amazing cook and loves to indulge you in any way he can.
Still, it was only during your first pregnancy when In-ho realized that he actualy prefered you that way. There's just something about seeing your belly grow round with his child that drives him literally crazy.
He also forbid you from any kind of physical activity in that state, since due to his past he was terrified to lose you and the child, and he certainly isn't taking any chances.
Literally can't leave his hands off of you. Offers you massages on the regulary just so he can shamelessly enjoy himself digging his hands at every inch of you he can get.
Kinda feels bad about "objectifying" you though? Idk I feel like in his private life this guy is very old-school and bad at communicating, he's basically kinkshaming himself lmao.
In his kind of profession he needs to stay throughoutly fit, so he's definetly able to carry you at any weight.
To him it's the most natural thing in the world that bodies change over time, and it's such an incredible privilege to grow together with the love of his life!
Thanos
Dude is definetly gonna call you some corny shit like "my marshmallow girl" unironically, comes up with all sorts of nicknames that are lowkey awful but he thinks are super cute
Picking out clothes for you has become a passion of his and he spares no expense when it comes to it. After all, he likes to see you happy and especially to see you in those outfits.
There's no filter between those last two braincells and his mouth. Constantly comments and catcalls you, "damnnn girl" is already his most used phrase at this point.
Saw too many memes. Says shit like "choke me with your thighs" while dropping to his knees.
His manager lowkey hates you because he claims it's bad for his public image if he officially has a relationship, let alone with someone not fitting Korean beauty standards, but he doesn't give a damn when it's about you.
It's your decision whether you want to be part of his celebrity life, but he'd be soo excited to show you off!
In the end the two of you get celebrated by his fans and they call you the new "plus size icon". He always claims "anyone who talks shit is just jealous, babe."
Kang Dae-ho
Literally doesn't see the problem until you point it out. Explain it to him like he's dull because this man is too wholesome to understand.
A bigger girl just means more to love?? Duh.
You could literally be picking yourself apart in front of the mirror saying "I'm so fat" and he'd be like "ikr๐ฅฐyou look amazing".
It actually makes him very sad if you talk badly about yourself, since he knows what it's like to feel inadequate too well...luckily for you that's exactly the reason he always knows how to hype you up about yourself!
Also, he thinks you give the best cuddles ever. His favourite place to be is with his face nuzzling against your stomach while lazily caressing your skin.
He's just so happy and proud to have a girlfriend who's pretty inside and out, this man will adore you to bits.
Se-mi
This girl is supportive af, consider her your personal bodyguard at this point (at least verbally).
No reason to be ashamed of your stretch marks, she's got her own from growing too fast in her youth. Has a habit to trace yours with her finger absentmindedl whenever she got the chance, as if she wants to remember every single unique pattern of your body.
Don't try to hide anything from her, she's very good at reading people so she'll know if you're feeling down. And yes, she's willing to hear about your insecurities for the 10.000th time, because that's also a part of the wonderful person that you are.
Would give anything for you to be able to just see yourself with her eyes for one moment at least...
Nam-gyu
I can't quite explain, I just feel like this guy has huge mommy issues and yes that is (not exclusively but in this case) tied to your weight. So expect him to be uncharacteristically submissive in your presence.
"Boobs or ass?" Neither. Prefers hip dips and stomach rolls, a man of culture indeed.
Is very handsy no matter when or where, loves to grab your butt even in public, or sneak up from behind to squeeze your boobs or belly just for funsies.
Is a little paranoid, somehow about both that others might disrespect or try to take you away from him. Oftentimes you might need to hold him back from doing something stupid just for the tiniest bit of your approval.
Will kneel in front of you and look up with those puppy eyes, zero thoughts but all the commitment.
Cho Hyun-ju
Let's be honest, she knwos best about both body dysmorphia and not fitting society's beauty standards. You'd definetly have someone to talk and at least partially relate to.
While she's very harsh on herself, appearances in general don't matter to her at all, what matters most is on the inside - and you got the most beautiful soul she ever got a glimpse of.
Doesn't know whether to be jealous of your curves or just be obsessed with 'em, haha
She's incredibly affectionate both with words and actions, constantly reassuring you about how pretty you are and how much you are appreciated as a person.
Willing to go to any lenghts to protect you from any cruel people that fail to see your light.
Kim Jun-hee
Frankly, she always had the opposite problem especially since she was expecting a child: People shamed her for being "too skinny" and how it would negatively effect her baby.
She'd be so supportive and hyped up to work on yourselves together, suggests working out after the baby's here so you can both become fit! No pressure at all though.
Steals your hoodies and shirts constantly, they're just so comfy especially when she doesn't fit into her regular clothes anymore because of her pregnancy belly.
Obsessed with your size difference honestly, being in your arms with her head buried in your neck makes her feel both cozy and safe at the same time. Also tends to hide behind you when she's stressed or afraid.
Really looks up to you as a person, no matter the weight.
Masked Officer
Concentrates on more important matters. You're loyal, sharp, and get the job done. Also you're quite literally his better half, so who cares what you look like?
You wonder why the mean comments got way less since you're with him but he straight up kills anyone that even looks at you the wrong way before they could even speak.
Is a tad bid sadistic, so considering those tendencies it's only for the best if you got some "extra cushion". With a grip as firm as his you're practically his stressball at this point.
Actually a bit concerned for your health, but his own smoking and drinking habits would make him a hypocrite for pointing this out, wouldn't it? So he mostly keeps his mouth shut about it. You're a catch either way.
Get's super talkative when drunk, like totally out of character. The usually stoic man is all over you, gushing about how lucky he is to have you in his life and how it pains him to see you doubting yourself. It's actually very endearing to wittness.
Seong Gi-hun
C'mon now, just look at this guy.
Literally hates himself and for many reasons at that, so he can't understand how someone so perfect could feel negative about yourself when there's actual evil out there.
Just so awkward and innocent, it doesn't take much to make him wax in your hands. While not really interested in things like that generally, it hits different when it's you. Show a lil' cleavage or wear a tight dress and this man is gonna have a short-circuit.
Hope you're ready for a heartfelt speech about true beauty and how your presence has affected him and many others for the better, no matter what you look like.
Gain or lose weight all you want, if this man is in love he'll worship the very ground you walk on.
