The Devil’s Plan has returned for a second season. Just like the first season, the competition tests strategy and teamwork. The prize pool begins at zero and increases through game missions. Contestants must meet special conditions in each challenge to grow the total winnings.

Prize Pool Structure

The Devil’s Plan Season 2 has a maximum prize of 500 million South Korean won. That is close to $359,000. The winner takes the full amount, but the prize pool starts from nothing.

Each game contains a prize mission. This is a separate goal hidden inside the main challenge. Completing this objective adds a fixed amount to the pot.


In the opening game, Crooked Cops, 100 million won was available. To earn the full amount, contestants had to complete the game in 10 rounds. They managed to finish in 11 rounds. So, 20 million won was deducted, and they added 80 million won to the pot.
