The first poster for Money Heist: Korea features the main line-up in the memorable heist uniforms but with a slight twist.
While they still maintain the same red coverall as their Spanish counterpart, the Korean heist team dons traditional Korean Hahoe-inspired masks instead of the OG Salvador Dali masks.

More info has revealed that the reboot will follow a similar storyline to the original but it will be set in “a fictional Joint Economic Area, in a world where the Korean Peninsula faces reunification.”
The synopsis is as follows:
“Money Heist: Korea takes place as North and South Korea are on the verge of a peaceful reunification after nearly 80 years of division. But as the two nations prepare to print a brand-new unified currency, a heist is hatched. A genius strategist known as the Professor assembles a motley crew of top-tier thieves from north and south in an attempt to steal the new currency straight from the mint.”
