Describing each contestant’s strength, PD Jung Jong Yeon remarked, “Ha Seok Jin watches over the game and makes cool-headed judgments. At times, he also surprises everyone with his groundbreaking move. Cho Yeon Woo has sharp mind and game skills worthy of her title as an elite Go player. And viewers should anticipate the hard-working Lee Hye Sung who will persevere through her diligence and persistence.”

“Through her creative and bold play, Lee Si Won will show a new side of her that she has never shown before, Seungkwan has immense presence and is a player who will meet your expectations thanks to his many experiences from other programs. Seo Yoo Min, who is fluent in Korean, English, and Spanish, will show an unexpected charm with her immense passion that even brought her [to Korea] from the U.S.”

“Seo Dong Joo is a player with brilliant academic background and extraordinary resume, Park Kyung Lim plays the game most skillfully as someone who has a long career in the broadcasting industry. Kim Dong Jae received the perfect score on the written test for the public [non-celebrity] screening and because he’s a non-celebrity, he has an unpredictable charm. Guillaume was the only foreigner to reach the Korean StarCraft Hall of Fame when he was a professional gamer. He is excellent at unconventional attacks and he’s calm even in crisis.”

Finally, Jung Jong Yeon concluded, “Kwedo will demonstrate a high understanding of any game with his scientific thinking and analysis and will prove that ‘games are also science.’ And Kwak Joon Bin will show off his extraordinary survival ability thanks to his excellent foreign language proficiency, communication skills, and ability to adapt quickly.”

“The Devil’s Plan” will be released on Netflix and Dramacool. Stay tuned for updates!
