Recently, Netflix (Netflix) announced more than 20 Korean dramas that will be confirmed to be broadcast in South Korea in 2022. In addition to the much-anticipated zombie drama "Our School Now," another title on the list caught my eye, The House of Bills.
The original is House of Bills is a TV series directed by Jesús Colmenar and starring Ursula Corbello and Isiar Ituno, which aired in Spain on May 2, 2017
"The House of Bills" tells the story of a man code-named "Professor" who organizes a group of robbers to carry out robberies. Unlike previous robberies, they don't rob money, they don't rob jewelry, they rob the Spanish National Printing Building! The members of the gang did not know each other and chose only a famous city name as their code name, such as the narrator of the story called "Tokyo" and the leader of the robbery group called "Berlin". The whole plot has ups and downs, no urine spots throughout the whole process, and the concept is novel. For example, the thieves do not harm the hostages, but try to turn the hostages into their accomplices, and even win the support of public opinion, becoming the Robin Hood in people's minds; their relationship with the hostages is a major highlight of the show.

The series is very popular on Netflix, is the world's highest non-English broadcast TV series, this Time by the Korean remake of "House of Bills" will be a successful remake, or a failed attempt.
The Korean version of "The House of Bills" is starred by Yoo Ji-tae (professor), Kim Yoon-jin (Raquel), Park Hae-so (Berlin), Jeon Jong-seok (Tokyo), Kim Ji-hoon (Denver), and Lee Hyun-woo (Rio). Directed by Kim Hong-sun and written by Liu Yongzai and his screenwriting team.
A drama can't work, first see if the actors are good or not. The casting of the Korean version of "The House of Bills" still looks ok.
The first is Professor Liu Jitai, born in Seoul, South Korea, graduated from Korea Central University. With "Old Boy" and "Women are men's future", he became the first actor in the history of Korean cinema to have two films shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival in France. This kind of old actor is naturally acting online, and you must not worry.
Another person who pays more attention to is the Berlin actor, Park Hae-so. Park Hae-so was born in Seoul, South Korea, and graduated from Dankook University. Whether it is the protagonist of "Witty Prison Life" or the fierce male second in the hit "Squid Game" in 2021, it is widely acclaimed. And this time starring in "The House of Banknotes", Park Hae-so said bluntly that he has always been a fan of the House of Banknotes, and it is very happy to play Berlin himself this time.
This drama will probably be a TV series that does not need any publicity and will have a lot of people paying attention, because the Western version of "Banknote House" is really too hot, and this IP reputation is too good. Now all you need to worry about is whether this Korean version can make a Western version of the feeling.
In short, the Korean version of "House of Banknotes" is still very exciting, whether it is the characters or its own excellent plot. It can be said that it is a Korean drama worth watching in 2022.
