Each team consists of five players. On each day of competition, a single game is played. After each game, the losing player is eliminated and the winning player continues to the next game. The last team with players remaining wins the competition.
The scheduling of the games is divided into three stages in different locations. Four games are played in the first stage, five games in the second stage, and up to five games (as necessary) in the third stage.
The winning team's prize is 500 million Korean won (approximately $340,000 USD), raised in 2016 from the previous 200 million Korean won. [1] Players receive a 3 million won match fee for each game played. Players with a winning streak of at least 3 games also receive a 10 million won prize for each win beginning with the third. [2]
