'Bloody Game X' Sparks Wavve's All-Time High Paid Subscriptions Surge... Choi Hyeseon Steps Up to Save Lee Kwanhee in Episode 4, Released on the 17th

Wavve's original survival variety show 'Bloody Game X' continues its record-breaking streak. Wavve announced on the 16th that the program recorded the highest number of new paid subscribers during its opening weekend and ranked first in paid subscriptions in its second week. The number of weekly viewers in the second week increased by 38.1% compared to the first week. The show also maintained its first-place position for two consecutive weeks in the TV-OTT non-drama buzz category of the July second-week 'Fundex Chart' published by Good Data Corporation, with its buzz index rising by approximately 20% compared to its first week.

Amid this popularity, episode 4, set to be exclusively released at 11 a.m. on the 17th, depicts Choi Hyeseon going all out to save Lee Kwanhee.

In the second money challenge of this episode, 'Mystery Time,' P2 team's Hyun Seongjoo recorded the lowest score and advanced directly to the Death Match. For the remaining spot, C team's Kim Yuhyeon and R team's Lee Kwanhee competed through a vote.

When Lee Kwanhee became a Death Match candidate, Choi Hyeseon took proactive action. The two previously escaped as a final couple on Netflix's 'Single's Inferno 3' and reunited on 'Bloody Game X' after approximately three years. However, their relationship did not develop into a romantic one this season.

Earlier this season, Lee Kwanhee dropped to the external survival camp after the R team recorded the lowest score in the 'first-come, first-served chair escape mission,' but he survived his first Death Match and joined the mansion.

Choi Hyeseon advised Lee Kwanhee to directly ask her team members for help. She suggested, 'It would be better if you came to our team and directly said, "Please save me." This approach would be effective in influencing the vote.' When Lee Kwanhee did not show a clear response, Choi Hyeseon said, 'We also have a lot to talk about. You shouldn't go to the Death Match this early, should you?'

Afterwards, Choi Hyeseon actively communicated not only with her own P3 team but also with members of the P1 and P2 teams in an effort to influence the voting outcome. Observing this, P3 team leader Hong Jinho remarked, 'Hyeseon seems to be working even harder than when she was on our team,' drawing laughs.

Meanwhile, C team's Kim Kyunghoon was seen changing his initial plan to send Kim Yuhyeon to the Death Match, adding tension to the latter half of the episode.
