I'm good. I feel like I'm in pretty great condition.
I feel a sense of relief.
Actually, I went to sleep pretty late last night
because I was talking to Hyun-gyu.
Still, I feel like I slept well.
I'm in good shape for today.
-Did you sleep well? -Well…
-Fall asleep fast? -Yeah. Soon after we talked.
-That's good. -Yep.
-We'll be seeing Kyuhyun in a bit. -I know.
-I think he'll be happy. -Yeah. I think so too.
Yes.
Why don't I have an appetite?
Eat up.
I can't get it down.
I had been feeling a little heartburn beforehand,
and the smell of the food was making my stomach turn.
If the chef finds out, he'll be so upset.
Um, yeah, maybe.
-Because I hardly touched it? -Exactly.
-But I really can't stomach it. -Right.
And I normally eat so well.
Wow.
I can't believe it's over.
I've been going over everything that's happened here
ever since I attended the first meeting for The Devil's Plan.
And I've just been thinking, "What have I been through?"
The mask makes it seem so serious.
Hello.
KICKOFF MEETING
So it's a type of survival game
where a lot of smart people are gathered together
and made to compete in various games.
I've been wondering if I'd be able to do it.
I'm really competitive. For me, it's all or nothing.
I also have a bit of a mean side.
And if I have to eliminate another player,
if it's the kind of competition where I have to put other people down,
I'm gonna find that kind of thing really hard.
-I really want to win. -Just flat out?
I don't wanna get eliminated early.
Hello.
Hello. Oh, no wonder he looked familiar…
MORNING, DAY 1
To be honest, I've never seen the show EXchange.
Hello, I am Jeong Hyun-gyu. I am a 26-year-old college student.
I get the feeling that alliances aren't gonna last that long this season.
The first main match in The Devil's Plan is called Corrupt Police.
Hyun-gyu, you are a corrupt cop. So-hui, you are a thief.
There's a saboteur on the Red Team.
-Hey, CHUU. You should go up, okay? -Yes.
I'll go over.
-Oh, really? -Yeah.
What?
-That's lucky. -Wow, good timing.
Oh, Hyun-gyu has been an amazing player from start to finish.
I get that sense every time I see him.
So-hui and I are similar in style.
EVENING, DAY 1
I don't think it's the right time to go in there.
-I'll give up one of mine. -Me too.
So-hui has a crazy side. Just like me.
Your eyes are both mild but there's a touch of madness in them.
-Both of you. -We have a kind of synergy where
I tend to get caught up in things,
and So-hui stops me from going over the edge and making mistakes.
Hey, doesn't that say "insert"?
-It says, "insert," right? -Crazy.
It says "insert".
She's very sharp. She's mentally strong and she's quick.
If you put this in another place…
-"47, 48, 49." -Wow, amazing.
That was so tough.
You have a talent for it.
-Really, well done. -No, come on. Not at all.
It's Juliet. Juliet. Juliet.
No one knows how to get to blue, right?
-Guys, I got it. The blue one. -Found it?
She's smart. Really smart.
She's absolutely a worthy opponent.
Hyun-gyu is quick at calculating and he's good at anticipating moves.
You have succeeded.
Can they afford the risk of using a Piece and a Grenade to get one card?
It's worth trying.
You want me to call? Should I doubt him too?
Whenever he makes a move,
he's already quickly calculated in his head what the other person is gonna do.
So-hui, you have found the treasure chest.
On the other hand, when it comes to solving problems,
I think I might be a bit quicker than him.
He's really depressed. He's gutted.
I just can't do that to Hyun-gyu.
Wait. Give me some time to think.
I think her weak point is that she's too soft.
To put it simply,
she's not devilish.
Whereas I'm a natural-born devil.
Then, you kill her.
You'd have to give up the item.
Use some of that.
Do you know how to do math?
Hyun-joon. I'm sorry.
I'd like to use my reward from the hidden stage.
In here, everything is permissible except for theft and violence.
That's what it's all about.
And I think that so far, I've lived up to the name Devil's Plan.
I might sound like I have no ambition,
but I certainly do.
The winner of today's main match is Yoon So-hui.
The highest score is Yoon So-hui.
Yoon So-hui. Yoon So-hui qualifies for the final.
I've made it this far, I don't wanna give up without a fight.
It was our goal to make it this far,
and now it's time to fight fair and square.
I think it's time for me to take off the devil's mask
and play mano a mano, player versus player.
I'm feeling good about it, and I'm glad to be playing against So-hui.
I think it took our combined strength to make it this far.
But now that it's just the two of us, I won't be giving him an inch.
I'll play fair and square using my skills to win.
-I hope Kyuhyun is the first one here. -Me too.
Kyuhyun and Tinno.
-I want to chat with Sang-yeon. -Oh, right, Sang-yeon.
-And Justin will be here too, I suppose. -I think everyone's coming.
I'm curious how Se-dol will react.
-I think he'll have fun. -Really?
Who else is there?
7high is a bit…
I'll be happy to see him, but I'm still scared.
Many emotions.
Things didn't go how he hoped.
But I don't think anyone will have any ill will toward you.
-I hope not. -They won't be like that.
I hope so. I did act kind of devilish.
No, I don't think you did. You just played well.
I think the name is perfect.
-The Devil's Plan. -Right.
Oh, someone's here.
-Your majesty, please enter. -Thank you very much.
-Hello, everyone. -Follow her in.
DAY 6 ELIMINATION SON EUN-YU
-Congratulations. -Hello!
What the heck? Look at this.
Guess it went according to The Devil's Plan.
Congratulations, So-hui.
-Congrats. -Thanks.
Hey, Hyun-gyu.
-I'm sorry. -What happened in the end?
-I went to prison. -You finally ended there?
-Yes. -I wondered when that would happen.
You went through a lot.
Yes, make sure you give it your all, okay?
-Okay, I will. -Yes.
-Well done. -You survived prison?
-Make it interesting. -Where did you sleep?
-He went home. -I just went home.
-Three hours? -Yeah, I came back six hours later.
-Congrats. -Thank you.
Everything went according to plan for you.
-The Devil's Plan. -Right, The Devil's Plan.
How far does Hyun-gyu plan?
Hyun-gyu doesn't look like the devil. You do.
-Yeah, a bit. -Because of your hair.
-You look a bit like a devil. -It's not that, I'm just angry.
I'm still mad about how it went.
Wow.
DAY 5 ELIMINATION KYUHYUN
-There he is. -Hey, come in.
-I missed you. -Hello, Ji-yeong.
Bro.
Okay. So, tell me. Did you keep your promise?
Yeah.
-It was tough. -Well done.
You stuck it out.
-So-hui. -Kyuhyun.
-You made it out okay? -Yes.
-Just you two? -Yeah. I went to prison.
-Oh, so that's how it went? -Exactly.
-Oh, it's just you two left. -Yes, it's just them.
Okay. Just you guys then.
It turned out exactly how the devil planned it.
I went up against Hyun-gyu in the last death match and lost.
Still, watch it when it's broadcast. We really fought to the end.
-Yeah, I'm sure you did. -Right to the very end.
I'm sure you did.
Justin!
-Hello. -How are you?
Justin. Ah, Tinno.
Oh, my God!
-Oh, my God! -There you are.
Welcome back, Tinno.
It's great to see you again.
How are you?
-I'm so sorry. For sending you to prison. -No, no, don't worry.
DAY 4 ELIMINATION TINNO
Unbelievable. Unbelievable.
We're almost…
We're almost like a family at this point, right?
-I feel like you're my children. -Ah, really.
I literally called it.
We couldn't, uh… I couldn't break it 'cause I was the last one.
-Oh, you were third? -We went to jail together.
-Oh, my God. -Justin, it's so nice to see you again.
-Congrats, Congrats. -Thank you.
I called it. The two of you.
-You thought it would be us? Really? -Yeah.
Thank you.
So-hui's smiling again. She's smiling.
Hello.
-It's Ha-rin. -How has everyone been?
Ha-rin, you're looking so cute.
-Oh my gosh, Ha-rin. -Your red dress.
-Hey, you're not in red. -Hey, Ha-rin.
Oh, you look so cute.
Why are you wearing white?
-I'm dressed in white today. -You have clothes like this?
It's time to leave the red behind.
I thought you only had red clothes.
-Ha-rin. You look so cute. -How have you been?
-I'm sorry. -What are you sorry about?
Hey, Ha-rin!
If you were truly sorry, you should have given me a Piece.
Se-dol's here as well.
You look like Lu Bu.
Hey. You should be over there. What are you doing here?
-Se-dol. -Ah. Hello.
Hey. You shouldn't be here. How did that happen?
She got through to the final.
-Ah, she did? -Yeah, she's in the final.
-Hey, Ha-rin. -Thank you.
When I was in my dressing room, I kept saying So-hui would make it.
-Really? You thought she'd make it? -Yes. I did.
Hello.
This outfit is perfect for someone in the final.
-Yes, a finalist. -You gotta win.
Whoa!
-Sang-yeon. -Sang-yeon!
DAY 2 ELIMINATION PARK SANG-YEON, LEE SEUNG-HYUN
-Seung-hyun! -Goodness me.
-Hey, Seung-hyun. -Hello.
-Poor thing. -How are you here?
7high, Sang-yeon is here.
-Hey. -It's Sang-yeon!
Sang-yeon, do you know how much I've been thinking about you?
-What's up, genius? -Ah, what's up, genius?
You really did show us what you're capable of.
I didn't even get a chance to talk to Seung-hyun.
-Exactly. Tell me about it. -I feel so awkward right now.
What happened to you?
I left in such horrible way.
I broke out of that.
Really? Amazing.
DAY 1 ELIMINATION CHUU
-Hello, hello. Hi, guys. -Oh, goodness. Look who it is.
-I missed you. -Nice to see you all again.
CHUU!
Long live CHUU!
I really missed you. Everyone's made it here.
-CHUU. -Kyuhyun.
-CHUU. -No hard feelings.
I'm so sorry, CHUU. I'm so sorry.
-Honestly, CHUU, this is our public enemy. -Eun-yu.
Are you still sore about that?
-That was the first day. -He betrayed me three times in here.
-Three times? -Ji-yeong!
But, CHUU, after all that, Ji-yeong betrayed me.
-Really? -Ah, CHUU-CHUU, I eliminated Kyuhyun.
-Gosh! Well done! Oh, well done. -I finally got my revenge.
Still, I gave you my Pieces.
Wait. No. You didn't give them to me.
-She took them. Come on. -I took them as my reward.
-Well done. -I'm so curious.
I'm wondering what you're all talking about.
We weren't talking to each other.
-A lot happened. -We weren't speaking.
I wanna hear this. I don't know anything.
Still, it must have worked out well, if you two made it.
I was imagining you two getting to the final
and Eun-yu, as I predicted, never getting out of prison.
And that's actually what happened.
I cried.
Well, I knew So-hui was crying. Your eyes are red too. Did you cry?
-Yeah. -Really? You cried?
I was really surprised.
He was sitting there like this.
I thought you didn't cry.
Well, just because you were leaving.
Still, I'm glad everything worked out well.
Thanks.
You said it, right? We can do a 5x5?
Don't you think it'll be a 5x5 or 6x6?
-But it might be an 8x8. -Right.
-Then we definitely have to sue. -5x5 would be a piece of cake.
-It was 8x8. -Really?
-But when he went in… -Oh, it was?
-Hyun-gyu solved it. Yes. -He did?
-How do you solve that? -Yeah, he just did.
-An 8x8? -Yeah, an 8x8.
-What was that? -It was a Knight's Tour.
No, it was five, six and seven.
-Hey, guys. I did it. -Nice!
-Which game? Which? -Just 5x5, 6x6 and 7x7. Blind.
-Was it not? -He told me it was six, seven, eight.
Ah, it was seven and eight?
-Six, seven, eight. -Did he lie about it?
Wait a moment. Wait a sec.
-Ji-yeong, can you tell us how many is it? -Has he been lying from the beginning?
-Hyun-gyu, that puzzle you solved… -Yes.
-…wasn't it five, six, seven? -Seven, 8x8.
I solved it with one minute left.
So you lied about that as well?
Yes. Well, the thing is, it was with hidden Pieces.
-Ji-yeong. -Honestly.
I'm sorry.
That was the only thing I lied about. Nothing else.
-I'm sorry about that. -Ji-yeong.
-Yeah? -I didn't lie as much as you think.
-Well, you lied right to my face. -I did lie to you.
-I did that's true. -You lied right to my face.
-You blatantly lied to me. Both of you. -I'm sorry.
-But anyway, if you win, that'd be huge. -Yeah, that's why I feel at ease.
-I heard you made it through. -Oh, right.
Wow. Honestly, I was so curious.
I felt so sorry for you watching the prison match.
-Oh, you did? -Right hand, left hand.
-No need. Oh, did you know? -Yes, right. Right.
-Yes, we were watching. -Yeah.
-Oh, really? -Yeah.
-It looked really hard. -You couldn't talk.
-Did you sleep a bit? -Yes.
-I slept well. -You slept well? That's good.
-After a lot of beer. -Oh, really?
-He drank a lot. -Really?
-I got back from prison so exhausted. -Is that right?
-I went for the first time yesterday. -Right.
The prison is pretty extreme.
-But Eun-yu was in prison for six days. -Really?
What? Six days?
Eun-yu. Eun-yu, weren't you in prison for six days?
Yes, yes, after you left.
For six days?
But six days? Really? I'm so shocked.
-That seems unhumanitarian. -I was in prison the whole time
until I got knocked out in yesterday's main match.
-You never slept up here? -Nope. Not one night.
-We were in the same boat. -Yeah. That's right.
Now that you've made it to the final, you'll win.
That's your plan.
-We're both going to try our hardest. -I'm sure you will.
But I'll be proudly supporting you.
This was Hyun-gyu's plan, and it worked out exactly how he wanted.
Since he's always been this serious about winning,
I think it's only right that he does.
Hey, everyone! There's lots of good food here.
-Eun-yu, you go first. Dig in. -This is my first time!
I'm first.
You've never eaten this.
-Let's go. -In here, you're a VIP.
Wow. You guys had lots of protein.
-Yes, we did. -There's meat.
-For every meal? -We had a balanced diet.
The food was really great.
So, you made me compete against people
who'd been eating this well the whole time?
What's this?
Oh, wow.
You have this every day?
Hey, are you seeing this?
The only people who are interested in the food
-are the four people who were in prison. -It's good food.
I think the game itself will really matter.
If it's a game that Hyun-gyu likes…
-But… -…if it's a game that you like.
-We're both so different. -You're different. She's very calm.
-Yes, she is. -Yes, So-hui is calm.
Whenever I played with So-hui, she never got emotional.
I think it would be really great to see
a woman winning this kind of survival game.
And since I've been close with her since the start,
I think if So-hui wins, it might feel like I'm along for the ride too.
So, yes. I hope So-hui wins.
I really hope you win.
CHUU, how have you been?
I wish I could've been more help.
It was such a shame what happened to you.
-You'd be the youngest winner ever. -Oh, would I be?
Honestly, students like us never win anything.
It'd be nice if we could change that.
What? You have to eat before the big game.
But I can't really make myself eat right now.
-Really? -I've been feeling kind of queasy.
Really? You're not feeling good? Why don't you sit down?
-Let's go sit. -Yes, sit down.
I don't know who I should support. I've been rooting for both of you so far.
Just enjoy the game.
You two are the ones I played the most with.
Hyun-gyu is really good at understanding games.
He also has a good sense of how to strategize.
And he's quick at calculating moves.
So-hui plays a game once, and she's just scarily good at it.
Plus, she's outstanding at math and calculation-related things.
So, I'll be happy no matter who wins.
I'm so proud of my guys.
-"My guys". -You said "my guys" so matter-of-factly.
-They're my guys. -Like, "I do hope my guys do well."
Tinno, I talked about you so much when we were drinking.
How I'd never had such a great brother figure after just one week of knowing him.
-Thanks for saying that. -Yeah.
I really missed hearing your voice.
In fact, I was listening to you right before I went to sleep, honestly.
-My music? -Yeah, I played your music.
I only just found out about Justin.
-Oh, me too. -Justin.
I'm sorry. I didn't realize… He's really famous.
-Oh, really? -No.
I didn't know you were in BEEF.
We got close, right?
We ate bread together.
-I poured you some milk. -Right.
-But turns out you're lactose intolerant. -Right. Yeah, I am.
It's just nice to see Eun-yu in regular clothes.
-Right? -But I feel weird.
They were doing my makeup just now, and it felt weird.
-I was like, "Oh, I don't like this." -No, Eun-yu.
-You look just like a lawyer. -Oh, right, you're a lawyer.
Hey, you're the only one whose job I couldn't remember.
-Really? -You're a convict, right?
Oh, my God. Stop. Honestly, you're so mean.
Hyun-gyu, are you nervous?
-Yeah, I'm really nervous. -Of course.
-Really? -Really? But you don't look like it.
-You seem so calm. -His expression…
Hyun-gyu's really good at putting on a poker face.
-Good luck. -I'll carry on as before.
Honestly, you were the one person I respected.
-Let's play later. -Okay.
Amazing.
The final will begin shortly.
The two finalists,
please make your way to the game zone.
Good luck!
-Good luck, guys. -Give it your best, both of you.
Give it your all.
-Listen So-hui, you're gonna be fine. -Good luck. You got this.
Off you go.
Good luck. You got this.
Give it your best shot.
We'll be watching.
We'll be watching from the other side of the wall.
Give it your best shot.
-See you later. -Shaking.
Good luck, Hyun-gyu.
-Good luck! -Wow, we can't go.
-Good luck, do your best! -Break a leg!
-Good luck! -Stay strong!
-Now that I see it, this door is so cool. -Yeah, it really is.
-Let's go for it. -Okay.
Let's go.
So this is what it's like.
Good morning.
I congratulate both of you on making it all the way to the final
of The Devil's Plan.
Choi Hyun-joon was eliminated in yesterday's prison match.
Meaning Yoon So-hui and Jeong Hyun-gyu have advanced to the final.
The total prize money accumulated through the prize missions
amounts to 380 million won.
-380? -That's crazy.
We built up a pretty good haul.
-We really earned them a lot. -I'd love to win that.
I will now explain the final game.
The final shall consist of three games.
The first game is called Big or Small.
And it's a betting game with a strong psychological component.
-"Big or Small"? -Betting game.
The second game is called Bagh Chal.
It is an abstract strategy game with a long history.
The third game is called Question and Truth.
-What's that? -Like a psych game.
This is a game that requires problem-solving skills
and rapid deduction.
Whichever player is the first to win two games shall be the final winner
and will take home the prize money of 380 million won.
The final, determining the winner of The Devil's Plan, will begin now.
THE DEVIL'S PLAN DEATH ROOM
I will first announce the number of Pieces you currently hold.
Yoon So-hui, you have 14 Pieces.
Jeong Hyun-gyu, you have 11 Pieces.
-So-hui has more. -Wow, So-hui's in first?
-Yes, I did that. -So-hui's in first?
I will now explain the rules of the first game in the final.
The first game is called Big or Small.
In this game, one player contests the dealer in a hand of cards,
while the other player bets on the outcome.
Each player shall receive a deck of cards numbered from 0 to 10
plus 10 chips.
The dealer will use separate decks of cards
numbered 1 to 9 with each player.
The game shall be played over 18 rounds.
With each round, the contesting player and the betting player shall swap.
-Oh, this looks fun. -Yeah.
Contest.
After shuffling the deck of cards that is used for contesting,
the dealer plays the top card face up.
The contesting player checks the dealer's card,
selects a card from his own deck, and plays it face down.
Bet.
When both cards have been played,
the betting player must predict the result of the contest.
If they think the contesting player's card is higher than the dealer's card,
they will bet big.
And if they think it's lower, they will bet small.
It's completely psychological.
Once the bet has been made, the contesting player reveals their card.
The one with the higher cards wins.
And if the contesting player wins, they receive the same number of chips
as the difference in value between the two cards.
If they lose or draw, they receive no chips.
If the betting player's prediction was right,
they receive double the chips they wagered.
If their prediction was wrong, they lose the chips they wagered.
And if it's a draw, their bet will be returned to them.
Ah, your stake is returned.
The two cards used by the dealer and the contesting player are removed.
The next hand will be played with the remaining cards.
-You have to count cards. -You'll have to memorize them.
The game shall end after 18 rounds
or if either player loses all their chips.
Victory shall go to the player with the most chips.
The first game of the final will begin shortly.
Seems difficult.
The betting.
-He's nervous, for once. -He's freaked out.
Wow, they both look nervous, even through the screen.
We're not getting new cards each round.
We're using the same cards throughout the game
and losing one each round.
That means that it's likely my opponent
will be able to make correct predictions as the game goes on.
So there's a risk of losing by betting.
And I think it's important to keep that in mind.
If you look at Hyun-gyu when he bets,
he tries to read what his opponent's doing,
so his betting's pretty consistent.
-Just skip this one. -Okay.
I don't know. I have to raise one. Let's start with six.
So I'll have to gamble in the middle to be somewhat unpredictable.
I think So-hui will play it safe with her bets.
My strategy will be to leave as many big and small numbers as possible
and get rid of the ambiguous numbers in the middle no matter which card comes out.
The contesting player must be careful not to create a situation
where the outcome is certain.
For example, if the player has already played all their high cards
and is unable to play a card higher than the dealer's card,
the betting player will be able to go all-in on small cards
and double their chips.
Your time is up. Please gather in the hall.
I feel like they're quite similar.
So I wonder what it'll be like when they're against each other.
They do overlap,
-but it's a bit like fire and water. -Yeah, right.
-So-hui is water, right? -Yes, that's right.
Don't you wish you could play this game?
Play it when you get home.
But remember, Eun-yu, there's money riding on this.
This is for prize money. It's different playing it fully engaged…
Playing at home is different.
We thought we were dying.
When someone was eliminated, it was like they died.
That was what was surprising.
Of course we didn't really die, but it felt like we did.
I really felt like that.
Big or Small, the first game in the final, will begin now.
-It's starting. -It's starting.
Because she currently has the most Pieces,
Yoon So-hui shall choose between contesting and betting in Round 1.
I'm going to bet.
-Oh, betting. -She's going to watch.
Jeong Hyun-gyu will contest the first round,
and Yoon So-hui will bet.
Round 1 will begin now.
My throat is so dry.
Please draw a one.
If a difference in chips opens up in Round 1,
it can really affect the momentum,
so I was praying that the dealer would draw a one.
When the dealer plays a low card like a one,
the contesting player can play a high card and earn a lot of chips in one go.
I will now reveal the dealer card.
One, one.
Three.
Hyun-gyu, please place the card you wish to play face down.
I wasn't sure whether So-hui would try and use reverse psychology
or go for an all-out attack when betting.
-She'll go big, right? -But if it's a three,
-it's too easy to predict, right? -Yeah, this is too easy.
So if Hyun-gyu wants to come out strongly, he could go for a one or two.
-Right. -If he thinks he might not win.
So-hui, please make your bet.
Yes, I will put two chips on small.
You have bet two chips on small.
She's gone for the twist.
-So-hui has nerves of steel. -Ah, she's wagered two?
I thought he was gonna play big
to try and get some chips right off the bat,
and I thought he'd think I'd guess that and go for big,
so I decided to go for small instead.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
Big.
Hyun-gyu, you have won the hand.
I will give you four chips.
First up, I decided to play big to try and figure out So-hui's style.
So, I thought she'd think I'd assume she was going to go big
and she'd therefore play small.
So I tried to use reverse, reverse, reverse psychology.
So I played a hand to try and secure a decent number of chips.
The contesting player for Round 2 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
Mr. Choi's choice is also very important.
CHOI BYEONG-UN DEALER
Yoon So-hui, please play a card.
-It's another seven. -Is it a seven?
Since Hyun-gyu didn't do the unexpected,
I thought maybe I'd play a twist,
and that's why I played the five.
Hyun-gyu, make your bet.
Since So-hui fell for reverse psychology,
I thought she might go for a straightforward attack this time.
You have bet two chips on small.
So-hui, please reveal your card.
Small. Hyun-gyu, your bet was successful.
-This isn't a good start for So-hui. -It's terrible.
It's an awful start.
The contesting player for Round 3 is Hyun-gyu.
The betting player is So-hui.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
Hyun-gyu, please play a card.
So-hui, please make your bet.
Isn't going small the obvious thing to do?
But after betting like that just now and losing,
she's probably thinking it over.
So-hui is probably confused
about whether or not he's done the unexpected.
Oh, darn.
You have bet two chips on small.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
It's a draw.
Yes.
It's a six.
I guess he wanted to see what So-hui would do.
That makes sense.
Well, given Hyun-gyu's style,
he'll already have thought that six and seven are numbers to play now.
I think he's disregarding the middle numbers.
He's decided that middle numbers are useless.
Because my strategy was to get rid of the numbers in the middle,
and because I didn't want to give her any more chips, I played for the draw.
The contesting player for Round 4 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu. I will now reveal the dealer card.
So-hui looks nervous.
-Things are going wrong. -Yes.
I will now reveal the dealer card.
Hyun-gyu, please make your bet.
It would be really amazing if he goes big on big.
You have bet three chips on big.
-He's gone for big. -He's thinking this is gonna be a ten.
So-hui, please reveal your card.
It's a draw.
-Draw. -I would've played a nine too.
Me too.
They're really quite similar.
So-hui had used reverse psychology once already,
so I was expecting she might do it again and bet on big.
I would have gained nothing by playing something smaller than a nine,
and if he predicted that, he would have gotten a lot of chips.
If I had played a big card, I would get one chip,
but if he bet correctly, he would have got more than that.
So I just played my nine for the draw.
The contesting player for Round 5 is Hyun-gyu.
The betting player is So-hui.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
Hyun-gyu, please play a card.
He went big just now, so…
You have bet two chips on small.
-Small. -Right. That's well done.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
Small. Hyun-gyu, you have lost the hand.
See, a one as I expected. I thought he'd play low.
It was smart to play the one.
The dealer might play a one later, so he's kept his zero.
So-hui, your bet was successful.
The contesting player for Round 6 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
-It's a six. -This'll be hard for Hyun-gyu.
So-hui, please play a card.
Hyun-gyu, please make your bet.
Hyun-gyu, you have bet three chips on small.
So-hui, please reveal your card.
Big.
See?
-What the heck? -Hyun-gyu's rattled.
Has So-hui set a trap and just been lying in wait?
But now Hyun-gyu will know. "So this is how she's playing."
So-hui, you have won the hand.
I will give you four chips.
I never thought she'd use her ten so quickly.
Hang on, she has an eight.
Right. Hyun-gyu never thought she would play a ten.
That's why she played it and won big.
The contesting player for Round 7 is Hyun-gyu.
The betting player is So-hui.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
Hyun-gyu, please play a card.
He'll probably play a low card.
Because he already played high and high.
So-hui, please make your bet.
Obvious, but she should go big here.
Hyun-gyu can't twist…
-Yes, Hyun-gyu can't twist. -…so it's big.
You have bet two chips on big.
-Hyun-gyu can't twist. That's fine. -And So-hui knew it too.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
Small.
-Hey, he twisted for once. -Amazing.
So-hui, your bet was unsuccessful.
Was he trying to play it safe?
Because if he'd gone big and I bet big, I'd get some chips too.
I see.
The contesting player for Round 8 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
So-hui, please play a card.
I'm parched.
So-hui can only use her six or seven if she's planning to play big.
-She has to save her eight. -She's gotta save the eight.
Hyun-gyu, please make your bet.
You have bet two chips on big.
-What? -What?
So-hui, please reveal your card.
Small.
Hyun-gyu, your bet was unsuccessful.
At this rate, Hyun-gyu's thrown off too.
The contesting player for Round 9 is Hyun-gyu.
The betting player is So-hui.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
Nine? Hold on.
My gosh, this is too much.
Hey, do you think Hyun-gyu will play his ten?
So-hui, please make your bet.
All in small.
-All in? All in on small? -All in. All in on small.
Justin says he'd go all in on small.
Justin, you'll get eliminated again.
Eliminated?
-Me? Again? -You've been eliminated again.
-Justin has been eliminated again. -You're eliminated again.
A big bet on small?
You have bet two chips on small.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
It's a draw.
-It's a draw! -I thought that might happen.
I thought it might be a draw.
The contesting player for Round 10 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
It's got to be big.
Hyun-gyu, please make your bet.
You have bet two chips on big.
So-hui, please reveal your card.
Big. So-hui, you have won the hand.
I will give you two chips.
Hyun-gyu, your bet was successful. Here are your chips.
They keep going two, two, two.
I don't know about this game, man.
But I think it's better to bet cautiously early on and go hard later.
That's the right thing to do.
Whoever uses their cards wisely can win later by betting.
The contesting player for Round 11 is Hyun-gyu.
The betting player is So-hui.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
Hyun-gyu, please play a card.
So-hui, please make your bet.
Doesn't she need to bet small here?
Because I don't think Hyun-gyu will play his ten.
If he does, that leaves him with no big cards.
You have bet two chips on small.
Right, that's rational.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
-Small. -See?
-Hyun-gyu is straightforward. -Hyun-gyu's style is straightforward.
I don't think he did it on purpose.
So-hui, your bet was successful.
The contesting player for Round 12 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
-One? -One?
Yikes, she still has her zero.
She does.
Hyun-gyu, please make your bet.
It's so tense in there.
What should I…
You have bet two chips on big.
So-hui, please reveal your card.
Small.
-She's a real gambler. -But there's something about her.
-So-hui is really playing well. -Right.
So-hui is really calm.
I think she's sussed out that he's trying to avoid dangerous moves.
She'll know that because she's played with him the whole time.
Hyun-gyu, your bet was unsuccessful.
The contesting player for Round 13 is Hyun-gyu.
The betting player is So-hui.
-I will now reveal the dealer's card. -Seven.
He played his seven earlier. He has nothing else.
Hyun-gyu, please play a card.
No seven.
My handwriting really sucks. I made a mistake while counting So-hui's cards.
I thought, "Did I really make a mistake? Did I get top and bottom confused?"
-Oh, no, he's flummoxed. -He smiled.
-There it is. -Hyun-gyu's getting a reality check.
Yeah, yeah.
-Played it too early. -Hyun-gyu's out of it.
He's struggling.
I think he missed a number.
-He keeps flipping through his cards. -He's lost track of a number.
-He's lost track of one. -Yes.
So-hui, please make your bet.
If I… But this, um…
What's he gonna do?
Then if I do this…
-So-hui will go big, right? -Gosh.
This format is really suffocating.
-Oh, she's gone small. -She only bet one.
She thinks it might be dangerous, so she's gone for one.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
Big.
-I thought he'd go big here. -You're right.
Hyun-gyu, you have won the hand.
I will give you three chips.
So-hui, your bet was unsuccessful.
The contesting player for Round 14 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
So-hui, please play a card.
-It's a three. -For a three, she's still got a hand.
She still has that one as well.
Oh, this is confusing.
As long as the gap in chips doesn't get too big,
it can all be overturned on the last hand with the right bet.
But the problem is since So-hui bet in Round 1,
Hyun-gyu gets to bet on the last round.
Hyun-gyu, please make your bet.
-He's going. -He's doing it.
Big or small?
You're playing so well.
Not a single error.
You've bet two chips on big.
So-hui, please reveal your card.
Small.
-Wow, that settles it. -Oh, my God!
-Okay. -Hyun-gyu's been stopped.
Oh, my God!
Hyun-gyu, your bet was unsuccessful.
This isn't easy. This is so hard.
At the time, I thought Hyun-gyu would think I was going for big,
so I thought it was worth a shot.
That's why I played the one.
7high, from now on, So-hui has no need to risk it, right?
Well, assuming they both know what cards the other has,
-she has to hit him first and double up. -Make sure he can't catch up.
She has to keep track of the difference in chips.
The contesting player for Round 15 is Hyun-gyu.
The betting player is So-hui.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
Hyun-gyu, please play a card.
Hyun-gyu played his one.
Doesn't he have middling numbers right now?
Hyun-gyu had a zero, two, five and eight left,
and he couldn't afford to play the zero.
I thought in that situation, he'd probably go for the draw.
It was half and half, since I had cards on both sides.
I had no idea what So-hui would do.
Wait a minute.
-I'm torn. -Hyun-gyu, you got this.
I've never seen Hyun-gyu like this.
So-hui, please make your bet.
Isn't it better to bet 2?
Then next time…
You have bet two chips on big.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
It's a draw.
Pass. Anyhow, she gets them back.
It doesn't matter. It was the same whether she bet two or ten.
The contesting player for Round 16 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
This one plus this…
Hyun-gyu would've thought I'd definitely go for big,
so I was wondering if I should play small.
But then I thought, although it's important for him to lose,
it's also important for me to get some chips.
Hyun-gyu, please make your bet.
This really isn't easy at all.
You have bet two chips on big.
So-hui, please reveal your card.
Big.
So-hui, you have won the hand.
I will give you two chips.
Hyun-gyu, your bet was successful.
-She's caught. -I can't tell what you're doing.
I hope not.
Hey, this has gotten really serious.
The contesting player for Round 17 is Hyun-gyu.
The betting player is So-hui.
The dealer will play an eight in Round 18,
and So-hui still has a three, seven and eight.
Since it's certain that she will play her eight to get a draw,
Round 17 is effectively the last contest.
I'll now reveal the dealer's card.
-Oh, my God. -Is it a one?
Hyun-gyu has zero?
So-hui, please make your bet.
Go wild.
There was a risk in betting if Hyun-gyu played a zero.
Since if I bet three, I would lose three,
I thought, "If I bet that much, at least I won't lose."
This is for victory.
She's going.
You have bet three chips on big.
Hyun-gyu, please reveal your card.
Honestly…
This is unbelievable. How have we ended up with a one-chip difference?
Big.
-Whoa! -No!
-Just now, So-hui, that number… -Right.
She got her calculations wrong.
Right, that's why she should have gone all in at that time.
-It was wrong to bet on three. -She should have bet a lot.
-She should have bet more. -Why didn't she go all in?
-Exactly. -Exactly.
Hyun-gyu, you have won the hand.
I will give you seven chips.
So-hui, your bet was successful.
I kept thinking about how I might lose,
so I think I momentarily missed the fact
that Hyun-gyu could get seven by playing his eight.
I really regret that so much. I really don't know why I did that.
Even thinking about it now, why did I do that?
The contesting player for Round 18 is So-hui.
The betting player is Hyun-gyu.
I will now reveal the dealer's card.
Hyun-gyu, please make your bet.
-All in. He's going to go all in. -All in?
But it's a draw.
-What now? -Don't lose heart.
Her expression shows it's a draw.
Why did you do that?
I messed up. Right at the end.
JEONG HYUN-GYU
That was so hard.
I messed up my calculation.
So-hui, please reveal your card.
It's a draw.
That concludes Round 18.
Hyun-gyu ends with 21 chips and So-hui with 20.
Jeong Hyun-gyu has won the first game.
The second game will begin shortly.
Of all the games at The Devil's Plan, that was the most intense, most difficult,
most heart-pounding, and the one I felt I came closest to losing.
Somehow, after losing, I feel even more determined to win.
So, I'm going to smash the second game and do my best in the third as well.
I will now introduce the second game.
The second game in the final is called Bagh Chal.
Bagh Chal is an abstract strategy game from ancient Nepal,
which pits tigers against goats.
The tigers must catch the goats while the goats try to pen in the tigers.
-Bagh Chal, this-- -This really looks like fun.
There are four tiger counters and twenty goat counters.
The game starts
with the four tiger counters positioned on the four corners of the board.
When the game starts,
the player playing as the goat has 90 seconds to place a goat counter
on one of the empty spaces on the board.
After all 20 goats have been placed,
the goat player moves one of the goat counters
one space along the lines marked on the board.
On the tiger player's turn,
they must either move one of their counters or capture a goat.
Looks a bit like Nine Men's Morris.
The tiger counter can be moved one space along the lines marked on the board.
If there is a goat next to a tiger with an empty space on the other side,
the tiger can capture the goat by leaping over it and into the empty space.
When that happens, the goat counter is removed from the board.
There are two ways for the game to end.
First, if the tiger captures five goats,
the game ends in victory for the tiger player.
Second, if none of the tiger counters can no longer move,
the game ends in victory for the goat player.
It seems like it's a bit more difficult to play as goats.
This game will be played simultaneously on two boards.
-That's difficult. -There are two boards?
-Playing at the same time? -Right.
The two players will stand facing each other
and shall play goats on the board to their left,
and tigers on the board to their right.
Whoa.
The player with more Pieces will decide who goes first,
and the game shall begin with each player taking a turn
by moving their respective counters on the board
on which the player going first is playing goats.
Next, the players will make two moves on the board on which
the player going second is playing goats.
Thereafter, the players will switch from board to board
playing two turns at a time
until one of the matches ends.
The game will end in victory for whichever player wins the match.
Whoever wins first wins overall.
You may both select one of the players in the living quarters
to practice with for 30 minutes.
-Oh, they're going to practice. -They get to practice.
Yoon So-hui, please choose who you would like to practice with.
-Definitely gotta be Se-dol, right? -Exactly.
-No, I don't play that. -It's got to be Se-dol for sure.
It's definitely gotta be the GOAT, Se-dol.
I will choose…
Kyuhyun.
-Me? -Oh, good!
-Not me! -Goodness.
I chose Kyuhyun because when we were in the living quarters,
we played Wall Go a few times,
and I felt like he had a good understanding of the game
and was good at making strategies.
I will choose Tinno.
Since it's a board game, Tinno would probably be quite good.
-What am I supposed to do about this? -Do your best.
-Mental, mental, mental, mental. -Yes.
-Help Hyun-gyu as much as you can. -Good luck.
-Kyuhyun, help her prepare mentally, okay? -Okay.
Kyuhyun, Tinno, please make your way to the game zone.
Wow, I can't believe we're back here.
-So-hui. -Yes?
-Why did you choose me, not Se-dol? -Exactly.
-Damn. -What do you mean, "damn"?
Se-dol, do you think if you played this,
you'd have a good understanding of how to do it?
-Se-dol always says things like that. -Hey, hey. He's smiling.
Let's do this.
First thing that occurs to me
is it might be confusing playing two games at the same time.
Do I have to play goats here and then tigers here?
Yeah. I think that might be confusing.
First up, I'll put a goat in the middle. You play tigers.
-You've moved forward. -You have to block it.
Right. So I'll put one in behind, since they can jump.
-This has to come from both sides. -Right.
When playing goats, you just need to be careful not to make a situation
where you can be attacked simultaneously.
And the game ends if I capture five goats?
-Yeah. I'll try something a bit risky. -Okay.
I'm curious what happens if I put this in the middle.
Oh. That doesn't seem risky. I think that's a smart move.
If you can read your opponent's moves,
I think you can make it so the tigers can't do anything.
-Hyun-gyu will realize that too. -It's not easy playing against Hyun-gyu.
One strategy could be to play quickly. To pressure your opponent.
-Your time is up. -Already?
Kyuhyun, Tinno, please return to the living quarters.
-Okay. I'll do my best. -Good luck.
-I'll try not to make any mistakes. -As I always say, watch out for mistakes.
-Thanks. -Take another look. Don't be in a rush.
If So-hui loses again, it's all over.
I'll try to end it quickly, and there will be a moment
when she makes a mistake.
That's what I'm aiming for.
Bagh Chal, the second game of the final, will begin now.
I'm so nervous.
The player going first will play goats.
By virtue of having more Pieces,
Yoon So-hui shall decide who will go first.
I will go first.
Going first means playing goats first.
I think the position of the goats is important.
Shake.
-Good luck. -I have to do well.
Good luck, So-hui.
Good luck, Hyun-gyu.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
Okay.
Where is a good place to put the goats?
If you do this, he will come out to block it.
Then that's done for.
When you're a goat, it seems better to not start in the middle.
-Right. -Because it can come for him like this,
so I think it's better to start off on the side. Yeah.
-I'll put it here. -Okay.
Good. Right. What do we do with this one?
-Put it here. -Then they're invincible.
-Right. For now. -I definitely have to start here.
Right, stick to the line.
That's a good move. Moves around the corner are good.
-Yes. -I think it'll be great to go here first.
Hyun-gyu, you have 90 seconds to move one of your tiger counters.
I'll be quick as a flash.
Did you do that when you were practicing?
Yeah, we went for a side start. Exactly the same.
Please come over to this table.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
She's going on the diagonal.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
If you fill the tops and sides, there's nothing to do.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
The tigers can't do anything. I feel so sorry for the tigers.
Tiger!
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
It is Hyun-gyu's turn.
It is now So-hui's turn.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
Right, there's nothing the tigers can do. Poor things.
You're really empathizing with the tigers.
You have to be smart in moving your tigers.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
-The tigers here look pitiful too. -Honestly, Kyuhyun.
I was a tiger in our last practice game.
So-hui, you have 30 seconds left.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
I feel like it's important not to yield the corners.
Yes. You're talking about like this?
If the corners are blocked, they'll be trapped.
Let me try a strategy where we move all the tigers out.
Okay.
Oh, good. If he does that, he's got nowhere to go.
Hey, So-hui. The right. Why?
-She'll go to the corner. -Yes, that's it. Right.
-So-hui's pretty good at this. -So-hui is playing well.
Once So-hui understands the rules, she's really good.
But when it comes to understanding the rules, she's a bit…
-Is she quick? -Not at all.
-She's not that quick? -Once she understands them, she's great.
As expected, So-hui picked up on the main point of this game,
but there was one point where we differed.
So-hui was filling up the corners,
whereas I thought it was better to save them
since goats could go there at any time.
I think it's a huge advantage for Hyun-gyu to leave the corners open,
I think that's a good strategy.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
Please place a goat counter on the board.
Please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
It's confusing going back and forth.
-Whoever makes the first mistake… -Yes. Me too.
So I think part of the game
is coping with two tables.
The moment one of them makes a mistake…
They lose their concentration, they make a mistake.
Hyun-gyu.
-We're going to fill up all the sides. -I think so.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
Tinno, once the sides are full,
-there's nothing the tigers can do. -Right.
I thought it was advantageous to go first.
I guess when there's only one space left and the board is full,
it seems like it will be impossible for the tigers to capture a goat.
Hyun-gyu.
It is Hyun-gyu's turn.
Please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
Is So-hui feeling sick again?
-Oh, no. -I guess she's feeling the stress.
When you get stressed, your stomach…
I guess she feels it as soon as she gets stressed.
You get a pain in your tummy.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
-He's finished. -Oh, right.
-So if Hyun-gyu puts his piece there… -If he does that, it's over.
-If he puts it here, she can block it. -It's done.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
I've made a mistake.
I thought it would be over if I put one in the middle.
If you occupy the middle,
the tigers can just go back and forth killing you.
I've made a mistake.
Okay.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui has captured a goat.
I was waiting for him to make a mistake.
I thought that once he made a mistake,
it wouldn't take long for it all to fall apart.
So I was watching him and willing him to make a mistake.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
-So-hui is doing well by playing it safe. -Exactly.
There's really nothing the tigers can do.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
-Doesn't So-hui's line look really solid? -The top is very solid.
She's building up at the top and working her way down.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
Hyun-gyu has to think of a way to firm up his line.
Exactly, but I don't think he's trying to fill in the gaps.
You have 30 seconds left.
Once you lose one piece, it seems like there's no end to it.
Once you lose one, you just keep collapsing.
Seven, six, five, four…
But he can't put that there.
-I think he's toast. He's totally toast. -If he goes there. Exactly.
So-hui likes to play it safe, and I'm a bit more adventurous.
I had no choice but to sacrifice a goat.
So when So-hui took my goat, I thought I might be able to trap three tigers.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui has captured a goat.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
She needs to be wary of becoming penned in.
Yeah.
Oh, what now?
I should have filled in the sides.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
Hyun-gyu, please move one of your tiger counters.
He needs to get his tiger out of the way.
He needs to move that tiger in the corner.
Every time he moves his tiger, she fills the space with a goat…
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So, when you're playing a game you're unfamiliar with,
it's best to play it safe.
She's just sticking to the basics.
So-hui played it so safe, and I took a bit of a risk,
but since neither of us really understood the game,
it would have been better to play it safe, but I tried something.
It is So-hui's turn. Please move one of your tiger counters.
Why not take the goat down below? There's one down there.
-It doesn't matter if she does that. -She can leap over it now.
-She can just jump over it now. -So-hui, look! Please check carefully.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui has captured a goat.
I'd better take this.
So-hui, please place a goat counter on the board.
This is over.
-He's gonna lose another one. -She'll get another one on her next turn.
-This one is captured. -Yes.
You're right. He can't defend it. So that one is going to get taken.
Hyun-gyu.
So-hui.
Hyun-gyu, please place a goat counter on the board.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
So-hui has captured a goat.
-He can't defend from here. He can't. -He can't stop it.
It's overwhelming this time.
I'm screwed.
I thought I could play my counters to shepherd the tigers,
but my judgment was clouded when I made a risky move,
and I made a huge mistake.
So-hui, please move one of your tiger counters.
Damn.
So-hui's tigers have now captured five of Hyun-gyu's goats.
In this game, you can't afford to lose even one.
Game two of the final ends in victory for Yoon So-hui.
Right.
-You did great. -Good game.
Game three of the final will begin shortly.
I'm glad it finished a lot quicker than I was expecting.
And since I won the second game, I now get to play a decider.
Well, So-hui made a mistake, and so did I. Anyone can make a mistake.
-I'm tired. -Me too.
I'm exhausted. You must be feeling worse.
No, you looked like you were having a rough time too.
I will now introduce the third and final game.
The third game is called Question and Truth.
You figure out by asking questions.
Question and Truth is a game where you must ask pertinent questions
to ascertain the order of your opponent's cards.
At the start of the game,
each player will be given a deck of cards and ten tokens.
When the game starts, each player shall select eight cards from their deck
and arrange them in the spaces at their rostrum.
When arranging your cards,
you must ensure that cards of the same suit
are arranged lowest to highest from left to right.
It is not necessary to place them next to each other,
nor do they need to be in numerical order with cards of other suits.
They have to be in numerical order within the suit.
For the purpose of this, aces shall be considered face cards,
and face cards, namely the ace, king, queen, and jack,
shall be assigned values of one, 13, 12, and 11 respectively.
For example, when arranging this hand of cards,
cards of the same suit such as the ace, five and six of clubs
should be arranged in ascending order.
The seven, five and king of diamonds are currently not in ascending order,
and must be arranged as five, seven, king.
The rounds shall begin when both players have finished arranging their cards.
First, both players shall take their ten tokens and submit some of them.
Players have up to 30 seconds to decide how many tokens to submit,
and the number of tokens submitted is not revealed.
At this time, if a player has five tokens or less,
a warning light will come on.
If both players submit the same number of tokens,
they will receive their original tokens back from the dealer,
along with two additional tokens, and then resubmit.
Whichever player submits more tokens
shall have the opportunity to ask a question or state the truth.
If they choose to ask a question,
they must choose one of a list of 11 questions to ask their opponent.
The list consists of questions that may be used
to deduce the order of your opponent's cards,
and the same question may be asked more than once.
-You can only ask certain things. -This is amazing.
The player being asked the question must answer truthfully,
and once they have given their answer, the round ends.
The next round begins with both players submitting tokens again.
If the player chooses truth,
they must guess the order of their opponent's cards.
They make their guess by stating the numbers
and letters of their opponent's cards in order.
For the purpose of guessing, suits are irrelevant.
If the player's guess is correct, the game ends in victory for that player.
If their guess is wrong, players shall submit tokens to begin a new round.
Each time they submit tokens,
each player shall be given an additional two tokens.
When the number of tokens held by a player whose warning light is on
goes back above five, the warning light will be switched off.
The game will continue until one player correctly guesses
the order of their opponent's cards,
and the winner of this game will be crowned champion of The Devil's Plan.
Game three of the final will begin shortly.
They must be shaking. Good luck!
So they just have to guess eight cards.
Don't need to know the suit, just the numbers.
The questions are important.
So, how are we going to join forces?
-Are we going to play here? -How shall we do this?
Ji-yeong, do you trust me?
Shall I trust you? For the fourth time?
So, can you arrange your cards however you like?
-You pick your own cards. -You choose?
It's not random. You get to choose yourself?
But I think making the deck itself is a battle of minds.
-There is that. You're right. -That's the point.
You have to choose something which will drag things out.
Something confusing.
But it's not enough to be good at guessing.
Right, even if you know, if you won't…
You have to bid well.
You have to do it so the warning light stays either on or off.
If the warning light keeps going on and off, it's too obvious.
This last game feels like the most ultimate fight.
-Really? -The betting is going to be so important.
Since the red light comes on when we get down to five tokens,
I've been planning to save my tokens so I never get that low.
By doing that, I think I'll be able to bid with certainty.
And since everything in The Devil's Plan hinges on this,
I'm going to give it my all.
I'm more confident with deduction than betting.
I think the "where" questions are going to be most useful.
Since cards will be in ascending order,
I think that will make it easy to find them.
I think I need to find out their positions first.
Your time is up.
Would all players please gather in the hall.
Poor So-hui.
-Are you sure So-hui is okay? -Exactly.
-Her stomach must be turning. -She looks pretty beat up.
I guess these seven days have been tough on her.
The pain doesn't seem to be going away,
but I want to do my best to win.
I…
I'm going to give it my best shot.
Currently, Yoon So-hui and Jeong Hyun-gyu have won one game each.
So the winner of this game shall be crowned champion of The Devil's Plan.
-Let's do this! -Good luck!
Question and Truth, the third game of the final, will begin now.
Please begin to assign your cards.
There's a lot of skill involved in setting your cards out,
-determining which order to put them in. -That's the most important.
You can't make it too obvious.
To be honest, the face cards have such high value,
I thought if he asked something like, "What's the sum of your face cards?"
it might be too easy to deduce my cards, so I was trying not to pick too many.
Asking about consecutive numbers is the strongest.
So, I tried to arrange them so whichever numbers she chose,
they were evenly distributed.
There's no luck involved in this.
-Right, no luck involved. -You're right.
That makes it more difficult.
The number of questions asked by your opponent
-is determined by your skill. -Right.
Have you both finished arranging your cards?
-Yes. -Yes.
Wow, I wonder how they've done it.
I hope they both make a good fist of it.
-With no regrets. -Exactly.
Round 1 will begin now.
Will both players please submit your tokens.
Two, three?
Since we only get two additional tokens per round,
I decided to bet two first up,
and by seeing whether I got to ask a question or not,
determine how many Hyun-gyu was betting…
Five, four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
Question, please.
Please choose a question to ask.
So-hui, please ask your question.
I will ask which positions are occupied by consecutive numbers or face cards.
You're not allowed to bluff, are you?
No, no bluffing allowed.
-The first thing you think about is lying. -Then the game would never end.
Name of the game is Question and Truth.
You're just a natural-born liar.
Second and seventh.
-Two, seven. -Two, seven?
-So, he only has two consecutive cards. -Only two and seven?
We don't know whether they're numbers or face cards?
We don't know. Right.
He's tried to avoid that as much as possible.
He managed to avoid a few.
That concludes Round 1.
Round 2 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
This is difficult.
Five, four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
Hyun-gyu, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
I will ask a question.
My strategy was to attack the face cards first.
How many face cards are there?
Just the one.
-One? -So-hui.
Asking for the sum of the face cards
is one of the most deadly questions.
Since the face cards have values of 1, 11, 12, and 13,
by asking their sum,
it is easily possible to deduce what they are.
Since I used one face card,
even if he asks what the sum is, I'm just giving up one card.
I thought he'd ask that, and lo and behold, he did.
Round 3 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
Um, I will ask a question.
What is the sum of the cards in first, second, and third?
It's 12.
-That's a good question. -Yeah, very good.
Because they're in ascending order.
Round 4 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Five, four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
Hyun-gyu, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
This is just like ping-pong. Back and forth.
I will ask what the sum of all the hearts is.
It's 26.
Twenty six? That's a lot.
This is difficult.
Round 5 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Five, four, three, two, one.
So-hui, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
They're batting it back and forth.
What position are any cards of the same number in?
Sixth and eighth.
If six and eight are the same, two of the highest numbers
must be the same, if it's ascending.
Right.
Then that can be specified as a characteristic.
Bigger numbers later…
But he said he only has one face card. No, hang on.
-Wasn't that So-hui? Yes. -That was So-hui.
She hasn't asked that yet. She could ask now.
Round 6 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
So-hui again?
-That's good for her. Yes. -Why not?
How many face cards are there?
-Right. -Right.
Yes, she's going for it right away.
-Right. She read him. -Yeah.
There are three face cards.
-Three? -He has three.
So, if there are three face cards, and two of them are in sixth and eighth,
-then seventh is probably a face card too. -At the end there. Six, seven, eight.
-Well, seventh might not, though. -It might not be.
They might even be the same.
Six and eight are just face cards.
-Right? -There's a high probability.
I think So-hui is doing quite well.
Round 7 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
Hyun-gyu.
I will ask a question.
What position are any hearts in?
Second, fourth and fifth.
He's focusing on hearts.
The hearts total 26, so he might be trying to confirm the face card.
Round 8 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui.
What position are any clubs in?
First, third, fifth and sixth.
What?
-That many? -In one suit?
Round 9 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
All tokens have been submitted.
Hyun-gyu.
What position are any diamonds in?
First and seventh.
Round 10 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Hyun-gyu.
What position are any clubs in?
Third and eighth.
So, Hyun-gyu's trying to find out the suits.
I wanted to find the position and number of each suit, then their sum,
and use that to calculate the numbers.
Oh, so there's one empty space.
Is it a spade?
-Spade. -Spade.
Sorry.
Round 11 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui.
What position are any hearts in?
There are hearts in seventh and eighth.
Round 12 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
It's So-hui again?
What is the sum of all face cards?
It's 25.
I think So-hui must have a vague idea.
If So-hui asks about totals another few times…
-So-hui, right? -Yes.
Round 13 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Five, four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
Hyun-gyu.
I'll ask a question.
What is the sum of any diamonds?
It's 12.
Hyun-gyu's still quite far off.
Hyun-gyu asked a question that, if he was unlucky, would take him further away.
Round 14 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
I guess his chest is feeling a bit tight.
-Oh, God. -Look at him batting it.
Because his heart's probably about to explode.
What is the sum of the cards in first, second, and seventh?
It's 16.
Sixteen?
That concludes Round 14.
Round 15 will now begin.
Please submit your tokens.
Five, four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
Hyun-gyu, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
I will ask a question.
What is the sum of any clubs?
The sum of all clubs is 14.
-14. -14.
Round 16 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Five, four, three, two, one.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
I will keep your original tokens and give you two new ones.
Round 17 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
-Oh, her red light's come on. -Her red light's on.
I knew my red light would come on,
but I felt something else was more important.
I already knew a fair bit of information, so I wanted to get some more.
What is the sum of the cards in fourth, fifth, and sixth?
It's 27.
This lights up when you have no more than five?
That's correct.
Is she asking more questions than she needs to?
-She's narrowing it down. -Almost there.
I think she's just confirming.
Round 18 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Five, four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
Hyun-gyu.
What is the sum of any spades?
Four.
-The sum is four? -Yes.
Four of spades. So the card in position six is a four.
That concludes Round 18.
Round 19 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui.
I will ask a question.
Oh, this is wrong.
What is the sum of any diamonds?
After figuring out the position of all the hearts and clubs,
I was left with two spaces.
So those spaces should be either diamonds, spades or one of each.
So, I picked one of them and asked what the sum of all the diamonds was.
It's 18.
Since you need two cards to make 18,
I thought, "Both of these are diamonds."
There are two.
Yes, there must be two if it's 18.
Card number two plus card number four should total 18.
If card number two is a 7, that means card four must be a face card.
Round 20 will begin now.
After asking eight or nine questions, I kind of knew the numbers.
But I needed to check a few things, so…
Or not?
So-hui doesn't look like she's quite on track.
If I could sort things out a bit,
I could squeeze her out with tokens
and get to ask a lot of questions for minimal betting.
Hyun-gyu.
How many 2s are there?
There is just one.
By doing that, I think I saved a lot of tokens.
What is the sum of the cards in first, third, and sixth?
The total of the cards in first, third, and sixth is 12.
That concludes Round 20.
This isn't like Hyun-gyu.
We're just watching right now,
but if Hyun-gyu has found all the positions and sums
and has figured out all the possible combinations,
then he might have figured out some specific numbers.
I haven't done that, so I can't be sure.
I started narrowing down the possibilities.
But I felt like I was running out of time more quickly than expected,
and it was coming down to a fight to confirm a few number cards.
Round 22 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
I will keep your original tokens and give you two new ones.
We will now begin Round 23.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
In the middle, there were a few rounds where I didn't bet
and spent the time checking what I'd calculated so far.
I'd been feeling really terrible,
but in that moment, I was really able to concentrate.
I felt a rush of joy, and just for a second, my stomach didn't hurt,
just while I was doing the calculations.
Round 24 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Five, four, three, two, one.
Hyun-gyu, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
I will ask a question.
What is the sum of the cards in first, second, and third?
The sum is 13.
From the certain clues,
I discovered it while going back through the questions
I'd previously asked.
Hyun-gyu's strategy
of asking about the location and sum of different suits
has the advantage of allowing him to infer numbers
by dint of the rule that numbers must be in ascending order.
By cross-checking the answers to his questions so far
and correctly deducing just one specific number,
he can easily figure out the numbers
without having to worry about their position.
Now, he has just two spaces to deduce and only three possible combinations.
Since I knew the order of each suit,
from that point on,
it was just a matter of using equations or process of elimination
to find the answer.
Round 25 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
So-hui, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
I will go for truth.
-She's going for truth. -She's going for truth.
1, 8, 4, 10, 5, 12, 7, 12.
So-hui.
-So-hui, that is incorrect. -Goddamn it.
The numbers that So-hui called out were all correct except for one,
so if she got another chance, I'd be dead.
It's not 1, 8, 4.
That concludes Round 25.
What did I do wrong?
Round 3 will begin now.
What is the sum of the cards in first, second, and third?
It's 12.
She must have written that down as 13.
It's really not this?
Did I do something wrong?
I was thinking, "There's no way it can be wrong. I've calculated it."
So if it's incorrect, then something's gone wrong.
Round 26 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
What have I done wrong?
When that happens, you lose it. Trying to figure out where you went wrong.
But it's easy to mess up.
Right, so something's wrong.
This is wrong.
"What is it?"
I was so certain, but when I looked underneath,
the sum of the first, second, and third cards was 12
and I'd written it down as 13.
Damn it.
Five, four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
I will keep your original tokens and give you two new ones.
Round 27 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Or I'm gonna die.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
I will keep your original tokens and give you two new ones.
Oh. Then…
Round 28 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Hyun-gyu, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
I will go for truth.
What? Truth?
I think he'll get it.
Please state your answer.
All I need to do is say the numbers only from first to eighth in order?
That is correct.
2, 5, 6
10, J, 4…
10, 8.
Hyun-gyu.
-It must be right. -He's right.
Hyun-gyu, that is incorrect.
Incorrect.
But that's what we had.
-Then is it this? -Just the ones in the middle.
It must be one of these two.
So what was in the middle?
Then whatever happens, it's going to finish within two turns.
Round 29 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
Eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
You've submitted the same number of tokens.
I will keep your original tokens and give you two new ones.
Round 30 will begin now.
Please submit your tokens.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
Round 31 will begin now.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
Round 32 will begin now.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
They have the same number left.
-They keep chucking the same number in. -Right.
They're going to keep throwing two again.
You have submitted the same number of tokens.
I will keep your original tokens and give you two new ones.
I guess it's a stalemate.
Time to reset.
-Yeah. -She's worked it out.
-That's why she's not-- -She's not doing anything. She knows.
I was so frustrated. I really wanted to go somewhere and buy a token.
If I could get the chance, I was done.
So, I just kept wandering around.
I had nothing more to figure out.
I really agonized over it.
Should I keep going like this,
or should I step back for a turn, and then since I'd have four
I could go double on my next turn and give the correct answer.
I had a 50-50 chance, whereas So-hui was certain,
so I thought I was going to lose by one turn,
and I hated it.
Please submit your tokens.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
All tokens have been submitted.
Hyun-gyu, please choose whether to ask a question or state a truth.
Hyun-gyu…
I guess So-hui is planning to play more on the next turn.
I suddenly thought, "Whatever happens is fate."
He was calculating furiously, which meant he didn't know for certain.
I hadn't done any calculations for several rounds.
So I thought, "Whatever happens next, that's my destiny."
I had to choose one of two, so I kept thinking.
Man, I was so frazzled.
That's when I thought, "What would I do if I were So-hui?"
I thought that So-hui wouldn't have chosen consecutive numbers.
There was a question for figuring out consecutive numbers.
So I thought that since So-hui is really smart,
she wouldn't have chosen consecutive numbers.
This has been fun.
Until now.
Truth.
2, 5, 6, 8, 13, 4, 10, 8.
-Is that it? -Please.
Please.
Hyun-gyu,
that is the correct answer.
The winner of The Devil's Plan is Jeong Hyun-gyu.
-Amazing. -Congratulations.
-Oh! -Startled me.
Congratulations.
-Well played. -Really great job.
-Wow. -Well played.
-Really well played. -Wow.
Good job. That was a slog.
Winning by any means necessary is what The Devil's Plan is all about.
I really enjoyed the whole experience.
It was so much fun.
I just try and do my best at everything
and I always do things the way I want to do them.
That's who I am.
It's such a shame.
I was so disappointed that I didn't win.
I tried so hard, so I was pretty let-down.
Still I was so glad to play with Hyun-gyu.
I really feel like I won the lottery this week.
That's how I feel.
As the winner, Jeong Hyun-gyu will take home the prize money
of 380 million won.
Wow.
I really did a lot of horrible things.
This is that kind of place.
And by doing so,
I ended up winning The Devil's Plan.
Thank you.
Really well played, everyone.
Well played! Everyone tried really hard!
-Well played. -Let's go.
Congratulations.
The Devil's Plan is now over…
-You kept your promise. -…following Jeong Hyun-gyu's victory.
Hyun-gyu, congratulations.
Thank you to all the players who participated.
Thank you for all your hard work.
-Well played. -Everyone was fantastic.
-I'm good. -Well played.
To me, The Devil's Plan…
This was a big challenge and it took a lot of courage.
I've met a lot of great people…
I've learned a lot of new things.
It was a big source of inspiration.
I've thought a lot about this.
I don't think I could experience something like this,
or feel these emotions anywhere else.
I challenged myself for the first time in a long time,
and I'm so grateful for that.
I think participating in The Devil's Plan
is probably the best thing I've done recently.
I think it's given me the skills to become an even better poker player.
There were a lot of frustrating moments, but I never gave up,
and I hope I'll remember that determination.
I hope it helps me in the future.
I think I was able to make it this far because of my passion.
If you have that, even if you don't make it all the way,
you can still do almost anything you want.
And thanks to this program,
I was able to live out my passion once again.
I like playing games,
and I especially love playing games with other people.
For the first time,
I experienced the joy of being a participant.
The Devil's Plan is over,
but I feel the same way I do when you don't finish a book.
I feel a lingering curiosity and vague disappointment.
It was short, but it's given me a lot of great memories.
From now on, I'll try to lead an honest life.
I've racked up too much bad karma.
One last time. One, two, three!
-Okay. -Great job!
