'The Devil's Plan: Dead Again' Premieres Nov. 10 on Netflix With 16 Players and New Rules
The third season of Netflix's brain-survival show premieres Nov. 10 with 16 contestants, including Jang Dong-min and past winners Ha Seok-jin and Jeong Hyun-gyu, and a rule change that ends automatic elimination.
Netflix's brain-survival show is back for a third season.
"The Devil's Plan: Dead Again" premieres worldwide on Nov. 10. Diarypoint reports the first five episodes go up at 5 p.m. KST, with 14 episodes in total released over three weeks.
The 16-player lineup brings back past winners Ha Seok-jin and Jeong Hyun-gyu, along with survival-show veterans Jang Dong-min, Hong Jin-ho and Oh Hyun-min. Super Junior's SHINDONG, singer John Park, singer-songwriter Stella Jang, rapper Nucksal and TV host JAE JAE are also among the players.
The rules have changed. Netflix says that, unlike the first two seasons, running out of Pieces no longer triggers automatic elimination, and each player's fate is decided by match results. According to Korea JoongAng Daily, the winner can take home up to 500 million won, depending on how the prize pool grows.
