The TVing original series ‘Pyramid Game’, which will be released on February 29th, tell the story of class 5 of grade 11 at Baekyeon Girls’ High School, where outcasts are selected by secret ballot once a month.

In particular, the acting debut of “Jang Won-young’s sister” Jang Da-ah and “Single Inferno 2” cast member Shin Seul-ki is receiving a lot of attention from the public.
Jang played the role of Baek Ha-rin, a sophomore that everyone loves. She let her face known through a lens advertisement and received attention as she was known as “the prettier sister of Jang Won-young.” She entered the entertainment industry by signing an exclusive contract with the agency King Kong by Starship in April last year.

Jang Da-ah mentioned, “Baek Ha-rin is always loved for her gentle and dignified demeanor, but has a cleverness behind it. She’s a perfect girl on the surface, but she’s actually a complex character with emotions different from her appearance. I thought a lot about how to express Baek Ha-rin’s emotional spectrum.”
Shin Seul-ki plays the role of Seo Do-ah, the game’s host and the top student of school. After appearing in Netflix’s original program “Single’s Inferno 2” and gaining popularity through her love line with Dex, Shin Seul-ki steps onto the stage of acting with “Pyramid Game”. The production team raised expectations by saying, “Please look forward to the performances of the rookie actors.”
Can Jang Da-ah and Shin Seul-ki, each with the tags “Jang Won-young’s older sister” and “Single’s Inferno 2”, continue their solid performances as actors? With high expectations from fans of the original webtoon, all eyes are on these newcomers as they embark on their first acting challenges. “Pyramid Game” will be available on TVING starting on Feb 29th.
