The Devil’s Plan also introduced two non-celebrity contestants: American orthopedic surgeon Seo Yoo Min and college student turned professional poker player Kim Dong Jae. The two were chosen through an open recruitment that the show held.
The show will be directed by Jung Jong Yeon, who is already known for his hit mystery and survival shows such as Great Escape, The Genius, and High School Mystery Club. The Devil’s Plan is his first collaboration with Netflix.
Additional details such as the number of episodes and release date for The Devil’s Plan have yet to be announced.
The Devil’s Plan is the latest of Netflix’s survival game shows. They also have a zombie-themed survival variety series titled Zombieverse, that will premiere on April 8.
