Synopsis

a strange experiment

A psychological experiment is conducted based on a strange murder case. All eight participants, who will receive a large sum of money in exchange for participating in the two experiments, participate in the activity wearing the same masks and costumes so that they cannot distinguish each other in one space for a week. The second experiment, which was conducted two weeks later, solves the problem of finding the culprit by listening to the situation presented, unlike the first experiment, which consisted of a simple play. The experiment begins to overheat as the participants are initially passive about unfamiliar problems, but gradually use reasoning to make their arguments.

There's a serial killer in there

When the participants were enthusiastic about the experiment, the microphone was turned on due to a broadcast accident and the host team's conversation played. Surprisingly, the conversation was about a serial killer among the participants. The confused participants ask the organizer for an explanation, and eventually, the profiler and director Gijung comes down to the experiment room and tells the whole story of the incident. Two weeks after the first experiment was over, two participants were killed by another participant, and a fact that the killer who killed them and a serial killer he had been chasing for a long time participated in the experiment.

you all lied

Participants are shocked by the fact that there is a serial killer among them and that someone is playing the murdered victim. As Gijung decided to stay in the same space with the participants to catch the killer, ordinary psychological experiments are now facing a new phase as a mystery game to find the killer. Eventually, the participants took off their masks and faced each other to find the killer. Gijung questions them for an alibi on the day the victim was killed, but they come to the same conclusion.
"You all lied about your alibi that day."

It's night time. Mafia, please raise your head

As time goes by, the participants try to find a way out of the lab rather than arresting the criminals, as anxiety grows that the lab is unsafe. Contestant Junsung can't resist trying to escape by taking another participant hostage, but he is eventually subdued and imprisoned. At dawn that participant Yoongi leaves the room and finds Hyunseo's body in a dining room, where the lights are turned off, and the participants who hear screams are horrified. Now, the mystery game that started in experiments is transformed into a fierce survival game for me to survive....
The time given is only one week! Can Gijung identify the serial killer in a sealed space where lies are rampant and no one can believe it?
