VIPS - S1-E7

Other mistake: SPOILER! The fourth game (the game with the marbles) can only be won when you win your opponents' 10 marbles and hand over a bag with 20 marbles (as is shown at various points during the game). But at the beginning of E7, Seong Gi-Hun (the main character who defeated the old man) takes a marble out of his pocket. This means he handed over only 19 marbles and should have been eliminated.

The Man with the Umbrella - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: Toward the end of episode 3 when player 119 stabs a guard in the eye and takes his gun, he then shoots a second guard in the left arm and holds him hostage. However, after Player 119 sees his guard-hostage is a very young man and decides to kill himself, we see the Front Man walk up to the scene and in that moment the guard-no-longer-hostage has obviously been shot in the right arm. Noticing this made me realise the jungle gyms on either side of the scene got swapped. It's a mirrored image. (00:47:07 - 00:49:03)

Red Light, Green Light - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: In LGL, if you look at the map of players, look at the player top right of 456 which is player 415. It is a balding man with glasses. Yet during the massacre of LGL, you see at the doors that player 415 is a woman with long hair in a pony tail.

Agroth II

Gganbu - S1-E6

Visible crew/equipment: When the old man is remembering his childhood home and walking around as the game is winding down, he walks toward the camera. This is a handheld shot. The shadow of the camera is on his shirt briefly.

VIPS - S1-E7

Revealing mistake: The Front Man draws his 1911 pistol when he suspects the police officer is in the penthouse. When he does, you can see a hex screw and a brass valve on the bottom of the magazine of the pistol. This would indicate it to be an Airsoft replica. (00:03:41)
