The series, which came out last month, is a thriller with 9 episodes, where contestants, all experiencing extreme financial struggles, play childhood games with deadly consequences for the chance to win a 45.6 billion won cash prize.

Bloomberg reports that an attorney for Netflix said it would be inappropriate to disclose confidential data contained in the documents the medium reviewed.

“Netflix does not discuss these metrics outside the company and takes significant steps to protect them from disclosure,” the attorney said.
