The one thing that pushes the contestants in the Netflix series to come back to play, even after knowing the reality of the game, was ‘money’. The winner of the game was to be rewarded with a cash prize of 4.6 billion Won, roughly equivalent to Rs. 30 crore. But in the real-life game, the amount on the line is much less than in the show, £500, or about Rs. 50,000. Is that a deal-breaker?
Relax! We know what you’re thinking about! No, no you won’t be killed if you lose in any of the rounds. The elimination would simply mean you’re out of the game, not of the world.
