The TVING original drama "Pyramid Game" to be released in Korea on February 29 (directed by Park So-yeon, written by Che Sui, created by Lee Jae-gyu) is a story that depicts a cruel survival sequence war in which students at Pekyeong Girls' High School 2nd Year Class 5, who choose the target of bullying through secret voting every month, are divided into perpetrators, victims, and bystanders, and gradually become addicted to violence. Based on the popular NAVER web manga of the same name that opened up a new world of school psychological thriller with a bold and original worldview (by author DKN), the drama awakens Son Su-ji, who breaks the pyramid of the sequence from the game target, to a "game sniper," and the intellectual and psychological warfare that the students unfold is cathartic. Director Park So-yeon of "Holy Idol" and rookie screenwriter Che Sui delicately and dynamically depict the unpredictable psychology of high school girls. Director Lee Jae-gyu, a hit maker who directed the movie "Perfect Strangers," and dramas "Now, We Are Breaking Up" and "The Sun Does Not Move," participates as a creator to complete the unique school story. Furthermore, expectations are high for the synergy of unique newcomers such as Bona, IVE's Won Young's older sister Chang Da-ah, Ryu Da-in, Shin Sul-gi, Kang Na-eun, Jung Ha-dam, and Ha Yul-ri. In the midst of this, the unveiled teaser poster caught the eye. Son Su-ji, a transfer student who looks at somewhere alone in an empty classroom. The phrase "There is bullying in our class" that does not fit the class slogan "Everyone's happiness, everyone's class" raises interest in the secret hidden in Pekyeong Girls' High School 2nd Year Class 5. Furthermore, the red triangle surrounding Son Su-ji, like the target of the pyramid game, gives an eerie impression. Like a ray of light illuminating the dark classroom, attention is focused on whether transfer student Son Su-ji can survive the fierce sequence war of 2nd Year Class 5 and bring about change. In the play, Bona plays the role of transfer student Son Su-ji, who awakens from the game target to the game sniper. Son Su-ji, who witnessed the cruel choice of the pyramid game that must be made to avoid becoming a legitimate victim of bullying and escape from the F class. In a game where one can become a perpetrator, a victim, or a bystander, what choice will Son Su-ji make? The transformation of Bona, who plays an active role as Son Su-ji, who engages in fierce intellectual warfare to capture the game, is expected. The production team of "Pyramid Game" conveyed, "Son Su-ji transfers to Pekyeong Girls' High School 2nd Year Class 5, and the class's sequence pyramid is reorganized. The fierce sequence war and psychological warfare that unfold in a class like a miniature version of society will be interesting."
