Muk-jji-ppa is a variant of the two-player game rock paper scissors. It originated in South Korea.
- The game starts with an ordinary game of rock paper scissors (가위바위보).[1]
- Once someone wins, they become the attacker and the other player becomes the defender[citation needed]
- The two then rhythmically show either 묵 (muk), 찌 (jji) or 빠 (ppa).
- The attacker must shout their move each turn before they make it
- The game ends when either:
The defender plays the same move as the attacker, who wins
or
The attacker shouts a word which doesn't match the hand sign
