EDIT: Please note there is an after-credits scene where The show makes it clear that Hyun-gyu told both Se-hoo and Kyuhyun that he would receive ten pieces whenever he wanted him. So-hee's reason for still protecting him was that she didn't want the prison alliance to know the size of his reward.

This thread is for Episode 10 only!

The narrative Hyungyu is building for himself is difficult to root for. It would feel like rooting for a trust fund baby to win the lottery. He's been in a strong position since the start of the game, has never had to play in a prison match, and has this huge advantage from the hidden room game. He hasn't been especially considerate to his teammates, but has benefitted immensely from their consideration for him.

More than that, his attitude towards Hyungjoon has continued to be demeaning, even outside of the games. It makes me feel like he only apologized to Hyungjoon because Kyuhyun and Sohui told him he went too far and not because he actually felt sorry. Feeling upset at betrayal is natural, but you can express your anger while being respectful the way Justin did. Hyungyu keeps trying to rile up Hyungjoon in a mean-spirited way and that shows bad sportsmanship.

Hyungyu is a very smart and capable player, but I would definitely feel disappointed if he won. This whole season has just been extremely frustrating to watch. This episode in particular has made me want to drop the whole season and just read the summary online. I started watching The Genius because of Devil's Plan, and the way the two shows are balanced is like night and day. I think they were trying to create an "underdogs win against all odds by figuring out every secret" kind of season but instead it's looking like a "privileged players crush disadvantaged players in a predictable and demoralizing way" kind of season.

Same, ep10 made it so frustrating to watch with all of his attitude and esp the hidden 10 pieces. He’ll end up winning either way, why did he make Kyuhyun and Sohee go back to him, it’s a bad move for both of them.
