The trailer for Pyramid Game begins with Sung Su-Ji transferring to a new school. The story, set in Baekyeon Girls High School, follows Su-Ji’s bullying and subsequent rebellion journey. She feels strange entering her classroom. A fellow student announces that the class plays a game on the last Thursday of every month. Su-Ji eventually becomes part of the 13th Pyramid Game.
The girls then begin to play the game. They enter their name and grade their classmates through a popularity vote. After that, the student who gets an F grade becomes the target of bullying. In the trailer, Su-Ji gets 0 votes and an F grade, which means that she becomes the next target. From then on, the girls take turns bullying Su-Ji one by one. They ask her to do her job as an ‘F grade’ properly. Meanwhile, another girl mocks Su-Ji by stating it’s not her fault.
Su-Ji realizes this is a school where everything that happens to a student with an F grade is legal. Su-Ji calls it a “hell that is beyond imagination.” As she continues to endure harsh bullying from her classmates, Su-Ji secretly becomes the leader of a rebellion. She begins to find ways people can break this system and put an end to it forever.
