TV Asia will be elevating the adrenaline levels this coming February with the
premiere of the high-stakes reality series, Run for Money. The show
transforms the ordinary into extraordinary as participants engage in a
desperate race for both cash and freedom as they run continuously for 48 hours
in a labyrinthine city while being pursued by relentless hunters.
However,
there is a twist. During the heart-stopping race, there will be a cash payout
every 30 minutes tempting the contestants to halt and claim their prize.
However, the time ticks as the hunters draw closer every minute, escalating the
risk of elimination and adding an extra layer of suspense to the already
intense competition.
Run
for Money puts physical endurance to the test and also dives
into the psychological struggles of contestants. Fear, exhaustion and moral
dilemmas become part of the journey as alliances are formed, trust is tested
and desperation elevates with each passing second.
The series has risen to fame as it becomes a social
media sensation for its one-of-a-kind concept and unpredictable twists. Asian
viewers can now experience the thrill firsthand as Run for Money premieres
on February 9th at 7:50 pm on GEM TV Asia.
