Money Heist: Korea - Joint Economic Area: Plans of unifying Korea brings Professor and his trusted cronies eyeing another heist

An unprecedented heist in a new Korea sets the stage and stakes in the latest debut for the upcoming Netflix series Money Heist: Korea - Joint Economic Area. The teaser for the K-Drama was dropped online today.

The teaser of Money Heist: Korea - Joint Economic Area shows that Korea is on the brink of unification, and North and South Korea establish the Unified Korea Mint and are printing one common currency as the groundwork to build a stable joint economy. Despite people’s expectations, “only the rich got richer,” leading to severe inequality. Against this unfair world, a crew of thieves, including Tokyo an ex-soldier from the North, unite under the leadership of a mastermind known as the Professor to plan an unprecedented heist – stealing money yet to exist! The only things standing between them are a joint task force led by South Korean Negotiation specialist, Seon Woojin, and a North Korean agent, Cha Moohyu, epic mind games, and time.
