Digital Desk: Today, June 24, Money
Heist Korea: Joint Economic Area will be available on Netflix for watching.
Some of the top stars from South Korea appear in Money Heist, the official
Korean version of the Spanish television series La Casa de Papel. The Professor
is portrayed by Yoo Ji-tae; Berlin is portrayed by Park Hae-soo; Tokyo is
portrayed by Jun Jong-seo; and Inspector Raquel Murillo is portrayed by Kim
Yunjin. The Korean version has kept the core of the original series while
incorporating the heist concept that would work best in Korea.
Money Heist Korea is set in a Korean
peninsula that is just about to become one country, as has already been made
known. The characters' backgrounds are all changed, and the Dali mask is being
replaced, according to the trailers. Actor Park Hae-soo has just disclosed that
these masks are actually called Hahoe and have a unique relationship to South
Korean culture.
Speaking at the press conference, the Squid Game
actor revealed, "The Dali mask was used in Spain to convey the concept of
independence, and in Korea we chose the Hahoe mask from the Andong region,
which has some significance." It embodies humour while also encapsulating
criticism of the wealthy and powerful. And when the mask was originally presented
to me, I genuinely experienced this sense of humbling power as every actor in
the cast was donning it. From both the sides and the middle, there are many
angles. I mean, the mask's appearance may appear fairly different from various
perspectives, so I was interested in that.
Even
before the shooting began, we were quite interested in the type of mask that we
would be wearing. When we learned that the Hahoe mask had been selected, and
when we actually saw the mask, I was really surprised because it is not a
plain-looking mask; it has a big smile on it and sends a sense of humour while
also sending a sense of mystery. I was extremely attracted by the mask since it
has multiple meanings, "said Jun Jong-seo, who plays Tokyo in the series.
The
actors talked about their characters in addition to the masks. Most of the
characters were kept true to their original forms, although Jong-seo noted that
Tokyo in Money Heist Korea is not exactly like the character as portrayed by
Ursula Corberó.
"I
applied for the role of Misun, but for some reason, I was given Tokyo
instead." The Korean version's new Tokyo will change the most from the
original character. She is a Gen Zer, in her 20s, and the show reflects the
actual aspects of individuals in their 20s. She is, in my opinion, the purest
since she believes so strongly in the professor's theories. She gets distracted
easily, she’s very stable, and she is just focusing on one goal. And she is
trying to lead everybody to go to that goal, so she is not a troublemaker, "she
said.
While
there are bound to be comparisons with the original one, we are excited to see
how Money Heist Korea manages to stand out.
