LOS ANGELES - The new Netflix crime drama Money Heist: Korea - Joint Economic Area is a remake of the streaming service's Spanish hit Money Heist, or La Casa De Papel (2017 to 2021).
But the cast - which includes Park Hae-soo of Squid Game (2021) and Yoo Ji-tae of Oldboy (2003) - and creators wanted to put a distinctly Korean spin on it.
