What is the prize, in reais, for the Round 6 series?
First, it must be made clear that the series is a South Korean production. Therefore, the prize money created by the author is in won (local currency).
As a curiosity, 1 won is equivalent to BRL 0.0046. It seems small comparing just one unit of the South Korean currency. However, the total prize for Round 6, if it were converted today into Brazilian currency, would be: R$ 209.7 million.
Yeah, you can't become a billionaire, but surely the amount is enough to guarantee anyone's life. The prize is almost the same as winning the lottery, betting on Mega Sena da Virada, for example.
Round 6
The series stars actor Lee Jung-jae in the role of Seong Gi-hun. Upon entering the billionaire competition, the character discovers that only one will survive. Round 6 is one of the bloodiest series currently released by the streaming platform.
Released on September 17, all nine episodes received a 100% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The story is intriguing and, at the same time, macabre and has already conquered thousands of fans. Last weekend, the production was in the top 10 of Netflix.
The official synopsis released by the platform reads as follows:
“A somewhat mysterious invitation arrives for people who are in desperate need of money. The goal? Summon them for an even more mysterious game! The 456 participants find themselves confined to a secret place to compete with each other for the 45.6 billion won prize. Each contest is a traditional children's game in Korea, and the losers pay the price of failure with their lives. Now it remains to be seen: who will be the big winner of the competition? And who is behind this game?
