Deal or No Deal is back! Join brand new host Stephen Mulhern for the return of one of the most exciting and iconic gameshows of all time. Each episode a brave new contestant takes on the infamous Banker for the chance to win a life-changing cash prize. There are no questions in this gameshow, except for one; Deal or No Deal?
In the new program, twelve well-known Dutch people embark on an adventure in a breathtaking location on the Mediterranean Sea. They compete in a game full of dilemmas, temptation, and revenge, surrounded by temples, ruins, and nature. The game revolves around a single mysterious object: Pandora's Box. And the participants are better off leaving it closed, because, just like in the myth, opening it has ominous consequences. The game revolves not only around Pandora, but also features other Greek mythical figures. The challenges during the episodes are inspired by Sisyphus, and exciting encounters with Medusa's gaze take place. Each episode culminates in a confrontation with two cursed players fighting for survival, while competing against each other in a duel to avoid elimination. This means new relationships, alliances, and above all, unpredictability every week.

There will be different scenarios for the cast members to go through, but there is a rule that they have to follow without fail: they are not allowed to laugh throughout. For every time a cast member laughs, ₩10,000 will be deducted instantly from his appearance fee, and get wet from his head by water coming out from the water backpack that each cast member will carry throughout. At the end of each scenario, the cast member with the least amount of money deducted will have his appearance fee paid in full.
