문제 풀이

SELECT	player_id,
		device_id
FROM	activity
WHERE	(player_id, event_date) IN (
									SELECT	player_id,
											MIN(event_date) AS first_event_date		-- player_id별 최초 event_date 추출
									FROM	activity
                                    GROUP BY player_id
                                    );
