The Society Game (소사이어티 게임) is a South Korean reality TV series, and it was marketed as one of tvN's 10th Anniversary Special Global Project shows.
If the contestants successfully complete the challenges given to them and survive until the end, the reward of a 150 million won (approximately US$111,000) would be given to them.
The Society Game is produced in collaboration with Endemol Shine Group, creators of Big Brother and MasterChef.
The two societies then live apart in two different areas in the house and are isolated from each other at all times besides the Team Challenge and Eviction Ceremony.
The "house" is circular in shape and is divided into three equal sections: Nop-Dong, Ma-Dong, and Neutral Zone.
In Nop-dong (Green Team), the society is modeled as a democracy with all members having the right to vote and the right to be elected.
In Ma-dong (Red Team), the society is modeled as a totalitarian state with the Leader reigning indefinitely until he/she is "overthrown" in a "rebellion".
Special Prize: Ice and Watermelon Winning Team: Ma-dong Episode Two - Round Table of Suffering Team Prize: 10,000,000 Korean won + Ice Cream Round Table of Suffering is a game that requires both physical and mental capabilities.
In the mental math challenge portion, each member will be provided a 6-sided die with numbers 1 to 6 labeled on each face.
A 3-second countdown will ensue in which all participating members will answer the equation by showing the correct face on the dice away from them.
For every incorrect answer by a member in the mental math challenge, a 5 kg bag will be placed on the platform of their corresponding team and increase the total weight carried by the table lifters.
After one successful toss, the cap will be passed to the third member and they will run back to the first station to complete a second Tangram puzzle.
After completion, the cap will be passed to the fourth and final member, in which they will run back to the second station.
Special Prize: Chili Paste Winning Team: Ma-dong Episode Four - Floor Removal Team Prize: 10,000,000 Korean won + Ice Coffee & Ice Cream Cake Each society starts off with 100 square blocks and 6 people will be chosen to stand on each society's blocks.

Winner: Nop-dong Mini-Game A representative from each society competes to be the first to knock down 4 targets in a line.
Physical Test involved a timed trial for transporting 5 kg bags from the start point back to a platform.
In Ma-dong, Yang Sang-guk quickly gathers the first 4 residents to form a secret majority alliance in hopes to control the society.
Later that day, Yang Sang-guk discovers Lee Hae-sung's plan to target his alliance from Hyun Kyung-ryul.
Following their defeat in the Team Challenge, Oliver Jang and Shin Jae-hyuk plots to vote Hong Sa-hyuk as leader tomorrow in order to eliminate Pharoh.
Pharoh decides to hold private sessions with each member to seek out public opinion on who they would like to see evicted.
In Ma-dong, Yang Sang-guk checks his safe and discovers a bottle of sparkling water and a letter with a piece of paper that has "12/13" printed on it.
It is then revealed that on Day 2, Lee Hae-sung and Yang Sang-guk had a secret agreement to not evict each other.
Lee Hae-sung also forms a Final 3 alliance with Yang Sang-guk and Kwon A-sol.
Park Ha-el, Lee Hae-sung's ally, attempts to persuade Choi Seol-hwa to use the Key of Rebellion by lying that Yang Sang-guk wants to evict all the female players first.
She cites that the society is currently split 6 to 5 and if Seol-hwa decides to rebel, she has enough support to be successful.
In the Eviction Ceremony, it is revealed that Yang Sang-guk split the prize money equally with all members except Kwon A-sol, who received $0.
In Nop-dong, Oliver Jang continues to rally members to vote for Hong Sa-Hyuk in his attempt to evict Pharoh.
It is revealed that a majority of the members were wary of Oliver's schemes and decided to keep him in check by voting against his wishes.
They will show up along with failure at any time, and just like a war, everything will turn upside down..." Prize money was distributed in units of one million won (₩1M).
