The Front Man respects the results of the vote in episode two and only continues the games with those who choose to come back willingly.willingly.
** By his own admission, he doesn't care if his workers engage in organ theft or even post-mortem cannibalism, but draws the line at helping the contestants cheat, as it removes the element of equality he wishes to give to a bunch of people normally stuck in a cruel world who now have a chance to win big.
** Given the long look he has when studying the undercover organ trafficking room, it's implied that he felt sorry for Byeong-gi with having to do this much surgery before lights out and with the stress of the game. He still has him executed for cheating and not following the rules.
** It's implied that he couldn't understand why Il-nam personally entered the games to play in his creation, given that there are several opportunities where the old man is spared that are noticeable on a rewatch. Granted, Il-nam did mentor him, so there was some bias as well.
** Il-nam's goal for the games is for them to be fun and fair. When everyone starts blindly murdering each other during the nighttime riot (which is neither fun nor fair), he is horrified and begs for the fighting to stop because "everyone is going to kill each other!"
** A more subtle moment is when Team 7 in the tug-of-war are easily defeated by Deok-su's team, Il-nam stares in horror and winces when they plummet to their deaths.
** Gi-hun's HeroicBSOD and refusing to use the prize money ''may'' have made him realize that he went too far with the games and hurting the one person with whom he truly bonded. He arranges one last meeting between them, and doesn't want the money back when Gi-hun says that it's dirty and unclean. Instead, he offers to play for it where if Gi-hun wins, Il-nam will take back the prize money.

** In "Enough", three AmoralAttorney's usually have no problem when witnesses testifying against their clients end up dead because those witnesses are usually other criminals. However, when their clients threatened an innocent woman who saw them commit murder, the lawyers conspire to murder their own clients. "Even scumbag lawyers have a heart."
** In "Greater Good." a hitman turns himself in and spills the beans on his client when said client switched targets from a man to a woman. This hitman doesn't do women or kids.
** In "Unspoken," a would-be killer changes his mind about offing Lindsay in the hospital even though he knows she can identify him. He sees a picture Lucy drew for "Mommy" and, because he has a thing about not hurting kids, he lets Lindsay live for her daughter's sake.

** SerialKiller for Justice Dexter Morgan has a strict code he adheres to driving him to kill only people who have somehow escaped justice. Said code was placed upon by his cop father, who recognized that Dexter was going to be a serial killer. It's shown that had this code not been placed, he would end up just as monstrous as other serial killers. When he confronts a SerialKiller of children, Dexter states his revulsion for his crimes with the claim, "I have standards."
