Netflix has dropped the official trailer for Money Heist: Korea — Joint Economic Area, an upcoming remake of the streamer’s popular Spanish crime drama series under the same moniker, or La Casa De Papel.
The 12-episode series, which is helmed by Kim Hong-Sun, will be set in a fictional Joint Economic Area, where “the Korean Peninsula faces reunification,” according to the streamer.
Additionally, the show will see a new cast take on the characters from the original series.
In the trailer, the Professor outlines what to expect from the upcoming series in a voiceover;
“A robber who steals petty cash either gets killed after being chased or ends up in jail. But a robber who steals at a massive scale can change the world and even become a hero. Of all the money heists, we’ll pull off the biggest one yet. The public will watch this greatest show on earth live and they will root for us.”
Money Heist: Korea — Joint Economic Area will premiere on Netflix on June 24.
