It came to a surprise that this year, the hit crime series “Money Heist” or known as “La Casa de Papel” in Spanish will have a Korean remake this 2022. The successful Spanish series finished its season last December for the second part of Season 5.
Fans are overly excited for this adaptation because of its extravaganza and the curiosity of how will the “robbing” take place in the Korean Peninsula setting.
Production
It’s a challenge for the production team to go full force with this series because the pandemic surge is one of reasons they can’t go full. There are restrictions and guidelines needed to be followed that’s why the crew, the members, and the production team are taking their steps to avoid getting the virus.
Casting
But with that, they also released the casts for Money Heist Korea.
These are some veteran actors who are also very popular from their side of acting in Korean dramas that we follow.
The heist will compose of actors like Yoo Ji-Tae, who will play the role of Professor a.k.a. the mastermind of the heist, Park Hae-Soo (Squid game actor) who will play Berlin, Jun Jong-Seo, who will have the role of Tokyo, and Lee Won-Jong who will play the role of Moscow.
These are quite exciting characters because we are all familiar with them and we all know that Korean actors are extremely good.
On the other hand—Flower of Evil actor Kim Ji-hoon, will play the character of Denver and Nairobi will be portrayed by the Korea’s next model and actress, Jang Yoon-ju.
