Entertaining drama with a few plot holes

I have not watched the original Spanish version so this review is solely based on the Korean show. Overall, I quite enjoyed it. One of the criteria of a good drama is looking forward to the next episode and not having the urge to fast forward through the boring parts, so in that sense, it was a good drama because there were no boring parts and it definitely kept me entertained. The plot is interesting despite a few holes – more about that below – and the premise of a reunited Korea was used well in the story, with some tension between characters from the North and the South as part of the plot.

The beginning of each episode has a little backstory that helps the viewer’s understanding of the main characters. This avoided the typical long flashbacks in the middle of the action, allowing the story to flow very smoothly as it was told. Very brief flashbacks to the planning of the heist enhanced the suspenseful cat-and-mouse game. Did the robbers foresee what just happened? Plan for it? How will the police react? That part was really well done.

The acting was fine, especially by Park Hae Soo as Berlin and Kim Ji Hoon as Denver. Wish the intimate scene catered a little less to the American market but hey, I’m not exactly complaining.

Now about those plot holes! They were significant and may have been in the original script as well, but that’s no excuse. The most glaring one was a civilian barging into the makeshift police headquarters. Pfff, like that would happen. Find another way to get the character the information he’s using later on. That scene really annoyed me because it was so illogical.

That said, I have no problem recommending this drama if you are looking for six hours of being well entertained. I will definitely watch Part 2.

Top Tier!

As a person who has seen La Casa De Papel, I can honestly say this was one good remake. the story using North Korea defection as the reason of Berlin and the Professor's split was perfect, each character's story was greatly changed to match the Korean aesthetic but also kept the original feel of the original characters who's struggles we're almost the same, like in Nairobi's case. I also love the fact that we didn't lose the character Berlin and the introduction of his love interest Seoul, it made the show all the more appealing to me. if you want a good adrenaline, thought filled thriller I would recommend this one !

The show was fresh and interesting but I had so many questions while watching this like how are both camps so careless and lax for an alleged heist/robbery?

Also the fact that Netflix decided to cut each season of this show in half is also a reason to disappoint viewers by giving them an incomplete story!!

If not for the characters being so loveable and the actors remarkable I would have dropped this show. It was the RIO x TOKYO, and DENVER x MiSeon, and Professor x Inspector pairings that made me stuck wanting for more honestly. Netflix please give us the part 2 soon pls!!

The Spanish version is def better

I wanna start off by saying that if you watched the original Spanish version of money heist, you would immediately know what I'm talking about. The Korean version had way fewer details that made the mission complete or even make sense as a whole. Throughout the middle bulk of the season, nobody was even printing money since there were so many hostages and internal conflicts going on. Plus, I feel like this was really rushed in writing while being slow-paced in other aspects. The actual heist part was barely going on and they focused too much on the relationships between all the hostages and "criminals". Anyways, if someone only watched this version and not the Spanish one prior, I can see them thinking the series is groundbreaking. But the Korean version just didn't hold up to my expectations, especially since I thought Netflix was going to go all out on this series (I think they created this with the intention of it blowing up like squid game). Kinda disappointed tbh.

I was so tired after watching this

I haven't seen the original series and I watched this in two parts, 3 episodes each... and both times left me so, so drained. It has been a day since I finished it but I still remember how stressed, annoyed, and tired I was. Then again, I guess that can be a good sign because it shows that I got attached with the characters.

Honestly, I had no intention of watching but knowing my some of my favorite actors [Park Haesoo (Prison Playbook), Jeon Jongseo (Burning, The Call), Kim Jihoon (Flower of Evil), Lee Hyunwoo (Secretly Greatly, Master of Study)] are appearing bumped it higher in my never-ending list of shows to watch. And they delivered. If there is something I can't find fault, it's the acting. Pacing got too boring in the middle and there were so many scenes I wished they skipped. I think it would even work with 5 episodes.

This is a good show with great acting but not something I would rewatch.

What would you do for money?

I didnt watch the original so I won't be comparing the korean version against it.

Likes
1. The production is very high class, the tension is high, they were the 'bad guys' yet i want them to get out alive and spend their money.
2. I like how they are able to outsmart the cops each time, although they are 'cheating'. I like how the professor thinks of their plans. I'm curious if this is all just a ruse or test since the professor was approached to be part of the Nokor Sokor team before or he has a grudge and is getting his revenge.
3. I like Berlin, although he is slightly unhinged. Tokyo is so-so, Rio is immature, Denver is dumb. I also like Moscow. Wish Nairobi is more charismatic.
4. Love Misun, she is so pretty, i dont understand why she would like Yeong Min the d-bag, he is not enough handsome andd he's crazy. Will Misun join the team eventually?
5. I feel bad for Woojin, being played by the Professor. What happens when she finds out the truth?

Dislikes
No one stands out to me. Maybe because we don't see a lot of their background history.

Hope they release part 2 soon!

Rating: 8/10

Very good drama for thriller lovers

I've read some of the reviews and I actually don't understand why some people said they're not satisfied with it . To be honest , I didn't watch the original one but I really liked the korean remake so much .
My favorite genre of drama has been always thriller , action , science fiction etc ..
This kdrama has all of the genres in it : family (between Moscow and Denver) , a little romance (Rio and Tokyo) , action , drama , sadness ...
I don't know what to say but at least I know that this kdrama was so far from my eexpectations in a good way .
The intelligence of each one especially The professor . I loved how he made a plan and didn't forget about the little details .
I didn't finish this yet but I hope nothing bad happend in the end and I wish that this kdrama won't dissapoint me with the ending.
I advice you to at least try watching the first ep and I am sure you'll admire it .

Messy writing, even messier storyline

Review for Money Heist Korea: JEA (Part-1; Ep.1 to Ep.6)
Right from the first episode, this show feels rushed. The whole scene of the team coming together for the first time is very abrupt. It would have been nice to get some of their backstories at the beginning, to understand how the Professor found them. Although the show tried to elaborate on their stories in the later episodes, they were nothing more than a few flashbacks, thereby hindering the characters from reaching their full potential. More elaboration would have allowed viewers to bond better with the characters had their arcs been developed intricately. The dialogues were also vaguely written at the beginning which made it confusing to keep up with the plot.

Coming to the plot, it is a little convenient for various reasons and some scenes seem stretched out and unnecessary, whereas some other scenes that required more focus, that could have included other characters' monologues (not just Tokyo's) were just never given to us. For example, a scene about Moscow's strategy behind digging the escape route and how he would have mapped it all would have been a good addition. Overall, they could have dedicated a few more episodes to smoothen such discrepancies out. Additionally, the lack of female characters was something they could have made up for in this remake. But you can already tell this was written and directed by men since many scenes are depicted through the male gaze.

This show can be enjoyable for those who haven't seen the OG La Casa de Papel. I would recommend checking this out first before you see the original Spanish show. For Money Heist Korea, we have six more episodes to go, which should give them another chance to redeem and improve the storyline in some way. Let's see how that goes!

WTF is this nonsense????

So they came up with a mythical story of North and South Korea being unified and they were going to rob the non-existent place that makes non-existent money???
Sorry, this is a piece of junk of a story. I had so many high hopes for it but just that concept alone is insulting to South Koreans and people that know that this will NEVER EVER happen. Are they trying to compare the two Koreas to the EU where there are multiple countries that agreed on a currency? What a ridiculous concept.
Ignore the positive reviews; they are 100% fake or work for the production.
Such a sad show and a waste of time watching this garbage.
