KUALA LUMPUR: The much-anticipated Netflix series Money Heist: Korea - Joint Economic Area has just unveiled its first teaser, and fans of the original Spanish series cannot wait to watch its first episode.

Hong Kong entertainment portal Jaynestars reported yesterday that the teaser, released on Tuesday, gave Money Heist fans a glimpse of the new series' main Korean stars, as well as some scenes involving them.

It is these masks which are worn by his brave and resilient team who go all out to perform the biggest and most ambitious heist in South Korea.

The teaser also shows Kim Yoon-Jin as the police negotiation team leader, who is the major nemesis of the thieves.
