DRX Kingen and Juhan end up with PHP bills by accident

In the video, one of the players is seen holding 100 and 500 Philippine peso (PHP) bills. It turns out that Kingen reserved the exchange beforehand on an app, and did not realize that he was getting a different kind of peso.

Aside from the currencies having the same name, it doesn’t help that they also have the same colors. The PHP100 bill shares a similar shade of purple to the MXN$1,000 bill.
