CENTRAL MILITARY COMMITTEE ORDER NO.385

You're home.

Listen, I have somewhere I need to go.

I'll be staying the night and be back tomorrow.

You'll be fine on your own, right, Son?

Again?

Where are you going this time?

Don't worry about it. I'm going to make money.

But you make money every day. You need more?

Don't you miss your brother? Huh?

We need to get as much money as we can to bring him home.

We need a lot of it.

Okay.

Then go ahead.

But, Dad, wait.

Where does all the money get made?

Uh, there's a big factory where the government prints out money.

All the money we use, all of it is made in that building.

Well, then, I don't understand why they can't print lots and lots of money there.

There would be no poor people

and we would be able to eat anything we wanted.

They're all so stupid.

You're right about that.

I'll be back.

One of the men involved in the bank robbery

was a man in his 40s who was shot by police and died at the scene.

This man, Song, was a North Korean defector,

with a high-ranking government position in North Korea.

It's presumed that he committed this crime

because he was never able to adjust to South Korean society

after first defecting here two years ago.

MONEY HEIST: KOREA - JOINT ECONOMIC AREA

We're almost done.

Is something wrong?

No.

Let's just dig.

-Hey, I can do it. -Okay.

Professor! Shit!

Are you there? Huh?

-Are you there? -Denver. Over here!

-Yeah, I can hear you! -You hear me?

-Oh shit! Come on! -Denver!

We're here!

Keep going, we're nearly there.

Come on. A little more.

-Hey, Professor? -Hey, Denver! Hey!

-Hey, Denver! Denver! -Professor! Professor!

-Denver! Denver! -Professor!

-Professor! It's been so long. So long. -You did it.

You did so well!

Uh, this… this… this is, um…

I'm…

Uh, she…

Stockholm's my name.

You did great.

Your son is okay. Hmm?

Thanks a lot.

Rio.

You've been good?

Yeah, I've been good.

Okay, so, it's this way.

We were all so full of hope in there,

but on the outside,

the Professor's worst fear was coming true at that very moment.

2026 KOREAN PENINSULA INTER-KOREAN ECONOMIC COOPERATION SUMMIT

The details of the agreement are the same as what you looked at before.

Now all that's left to be done is getting rid of those thieves

and getting hold of the money.

Special Operations Unit's on standby.

Since we're already on this subject, now that the summit is over,

there's nothing left that could cause issues in the future, is there?

Of course not.

We'll kill them on the spot, every last one of them.

Uh, yes.

I understand.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

When we get out of here, I won't see you again, will I?

What do--

Don't do anything like this again, you know?

Just live a peaceful life with your family.

Make sure you go see him.

Go see your son.

Misun,

let's forget about everything that happened here and just start fresh. Huh?

No way. I'm not going to leave with you.

Hey, come on, you're really planning on joining him?

The three billion will give you a much better life.

Why do you have to do this?

You made a choice when you decided to stay behind at the Mint.

And so, I made my choice as well.

Time to go.

Enter the Mint and wipe out every thief in there!

-Move now! -Yes, sir!

Here.

Finishing the tunnel for the escape route,

wasn't the end but the beginning.

It took longer than we'd expected to move such a massive amount of money

to the hideout through the underground sewer system.

And after we had finally moved all of the money,

we still had to seal off the escape route

to prevent the cops from pursuing us.

We're ready for entry.

What are you going to do when you get out of here?

Just gonna keep a low profile.

And then what?

You're really going to be a revolutionary?

Not sure.

Guess it depends on if I make it out of here alive.

Making it to the other side of this whole thing in one piece,

that's my one and only wish.

Um,

if that wish comes true, will you grant me my wish, then?

What?

To go live on an island with me?

I mean, so, uh…

As you may know,

I joined this for some pretty childish reasons.

I wanted to ruin my fucking life as some kind of revenge on my parents.

But now, I think maybe it's time to retire from that shit.

I don't get what kind of world you want.

Even with this brilliant brain of mine,

I don't understand what your dreams are.

But I do want to see it.

It doesn't have to be paradise.

Whether it's a blazing pit

or even hell,

I'll be with you.

Are you a poet now or something?

Shit. I thought that would work.

"A" for effort.

Tokyo!

We have to stall them here as long as we can!

Forward! Now!

Forward!

-Fuck! These assholes are already… -Hurry up, Tokyo and Rio are in danger!

We have to hold them off! Let's go!

Hey! Everyone, take cover! You know where to go, right?

We do.

Then come on now. Go already!

Taeksu.

The underground waterway.

Hurry to it, and I'll be there with you soon.

Don't worry about me, okay?

Cover me!

Fuck. Shit! Fuck!

-Cover me! -It's dangerous now!

Goddamn it!

Tokyo!

Yah!

Tokyo! Tokyo! Hey! Hey, Tokyo, come on! Wake up!

Tokyo!

Tokyo!

Tokyo!

Hey, Tokyo. Tokyo, wake up!

Die, you fucking bastards!

Charge!

Just stay down, you motherfucker.

Helsinki, come on, you can't do this.

-Okay? -Let go!

Helsinki, come on! Stop this!

You son of a bitch, I'll blow your fucking head off!

You bastard!

-Fuck you! -Helsinki!

I know how you feel. I do.

Hey!

Helsinki! Get over there and help them hold them back! Come on now!

I can handle it here!

Ahh!

Tokyo, please, wake up.

Tokyo!

Tokyo!

Let's hurry and get the hell out of here. Okay?

You guys cut the romance and help us! Come on!

The hole must be done by now. Hang in there, a little more!

I'm here now!

Hey! Motherfuckers!

What the hell was that?

Go back. Now!

They're early. We were wrong.

Hurry, they can't hold them off for long.

Don't move a muscle.

The next bullet's going to be fatal.

Hey, you sons of bitches!

Hang in there, you guys!

-Kim Sangman! -Kim Sangman!

KIM SANGMAN IS THE ANSWER

Could you please comment?

THE HOUSE OF PAPER IS OURS

WE'RE AGAINST FAKE ECONOMIC COOPERATION!

Kim Sangman! Kim Sangman!

Come out!

Hey, you son of a bitch!

I don't care if you kill them all. Get those bastards.

They have tear gas!

Hey, watch out!

Everyone, take cover!

We can't do this anymore. We have to go.

We did all we could. Let's go. Come on. Let's go!

Forward.

They must have gone underground.

Follow me!

There's an underground tunnel.

I'm going in.

Nobody move!

I'll shoot if you move!

D-D-Don't shoot.

We're just hostages!

Everyone, take off your masks!

This underground tunnel, it's definitely blocked.

Be careful.

Come on! Down, guys! Hurry!

Hey, Rio.

It's done!

Good. Come on.

Hey!

Hey, hey, hurry down there! I need to blow up this thing!

Here.

Open this now!

-Who's left back there? -Nairobi, Helsinki, Berlin.

They'll come after they activate the bomb for the escape route.

Get moving.

I'll go and make sure the truck's ready.

Okay, come on.

Are you crazy?

I'm on police business. I need to borrow your phone, okay?

Yes. Hello?

Wait. What hideout? What are talking about now?

-How did you find it? -That's not important.

They're planning on escaping here through their hideout.

-Send people over. -What location?

-Near the Pyeonghwa Hotel. -What?

So it's close to the summit?

They might be bold, but I don't think they're that reckless.

But that's their plan. They're planning on escaping amid the chaos.

Inspector Seon is completely right.

Cha Moohyuk here.

You're okay, aren't you?

I sent people that way.

They'll arrive shortly. Be on standby.

We don't have the time to just wait.

What--

Why isn't this working?

Is something wrong? Let me see.

Oh shit. Something must have gone wrong while we moved the money.

What's wrong? They'll barge in here any second now!

The bomb isn't working!

We can fix it, right?

Be quiet a second. Shit!

If this thing doesn't blow, we're all fucked!

They'll be right behind us!

We'll all be caught at this rate. I'll try to stop them somehow.

What are you doing?

You crazy?

I waited for my father.

Even in the prison camp, I waited.

Thinking that he would come for me.

Your son will be waiting as well. You have to survive for him.

Don't be crazy, I can't just leave you here!

All of us are just born to die anyway.

It's only a matter of how soon you go.

You fucking asshole. Just come with us, huh?

Hey, Helsinki! What are you doing down there?

Come on! Come on down right now!

We have to go now! Get down, right now!

We have to go!

Let's go! Come on!

-This way. -Check on the hostages.

-And contact the embassy. -Yes.

-And the hideout? -It's surrounded.

Go now.

There's no one here.

Found the tunnel. Going in now.

Go in.

Yeah? How close are you?

Almost there now.

Wait a minute.

There are cops all around the hideout.

Are you sure?

TAEDONGGANG BEER

We can't go in right now.

Okay, then.

I'll be in touch later.

I'm sorry, I need to call you back.

It's me.

Berlin.

I know they're going to hear me if I use the phone,

but they're right here anyway, so I guess there's no reason to hide it.

And I thought that I should say my final goodbye.

The detonator is broken, so I have to stay behind and block them myself.

Don't do it, Berlin!

Please don't.

Is he planning to blow himself up?

It's all over now.

What do you mean, "It's all over"? Huh?

They found the hideout.

And the route is blocked.

There's no point in…

the operation

anymore.

I'm sorry.

Well, this is an interesting turn of events.

Berlin.

Where's Berlin?

The detonator was broken, so he had to…

I'll be back, okay?

Ah shit!

Stay right here!

If you go now, Berlin will have died for nothing at all.

Don't you dare fucking say that! Who said I'll let him die.

We're almost through to the vault.

-They're almost through to the vault. -No need to wait for anything else.

Tell them to go in now.

Go in now.

Out of the way!

Stop! Stop! I told you that it's all over!

If we just give up now, then what about Oslo and Moscow who died for this?

Never forget about the lives of those poor people who trusted you till the end.

Jungho.

Even when I was alone in the dark waters of Amnok River,

or almost beaten to death in the prison camp,

somehow, I really wasn't afraid to die.

But I'm feeling pretty scared right now.

Jungho! Jungho!

I wanted to stand by your side out there and call you by your real name.

Don't do this.

Even though the search was long, you did eventually find me.

So you'll be able to find the answer again.

I'm going to go.

I'll be waiting for you with Father.

You take your time.

Brother.

Jungho…

Please, no!

Cover me now!

Song Jungho!

Go! Go, go, go!

What the fuck are you doing all the way back here, you crazy bitch?

What am I?

Who saved your life at the prison camp? This crazy bitch.

You're not allowed to die without my permission.

Hey, look at me now.

At this rate, all our comrades will die, not just us.

Go now! Leave me your gun.

Just go on, okay?

If you really insist on dying here, I'm not going to stop you.

But I will too. I'm staying with you.

I dragged you into this whole mess here.

I'm really sorry.

I never once regretted it.

They've got a bomb!

Yes, well, don't you worry… Yes, we'll do that. Right.

So how are things looking?

If you go over that way like this, the exit's right here.

Yes?

It's Song Sunho.

It's been a while.

Hmm.

Never thought you'd really be the Professor.

Why do this? Is it a belated atonement for your crimes?

Tell me, to what do I owe this call?

What?

You're yourself in?

Yes, I am.

On one condition.

You can shut me up,

or you can kill me if you want.

Do whatever.

Take back the money.

Please…

just let the others in my group live.

Are you there?

You trace that?

No, but he can't have gone very far.

Don't let any single one of them escape.

Not one.

Yes, sir.

What are you doing?

Berlin…

…just died.

I know.

I can't lose all of you too.

This whole plan was my idea, so…

…now if ends with just me--

Come on.

Come on!

-Just get a grip! -Tokyo…

Didn't I tell you?

I can't see someone I care about…

…die ever again. You got it?

Get up.

Come on. Let's go!

What is that?

Berlin blew himself up, the escape tunnel is blocked.

We have to pursue them through a different route, sir.

Professor.

The hideout's been found.

They're gonna be coming in soon.

What do we do now?

The Professor found a way.

This is the only thing left

for us to try.

I'm Inspector Seon Woojin, all right?

I… I heard an explosion right over there.

You can catch them if you just--

-What are you doing? -We've got her, sir.

She's likely in collusion with the thieves.

Have her moved out here, and go after the rest of them.

God, this map is like looking at a spider's web.

It doesn't matter.

Because the city infrastructure is independent and not connected

to any neighboring area…

No matter how they try to escape,

we seal it off right here, and they're trapped like rats.

Mmm.

Now, here and here.

We have people following their trail.

If we close in from here, we'll be able to catch them all.

Then do it.

What the hell is this about?

Weren't you suspended under suspicion of collusion and leaking information?

You should have been under investigation.

But you're moving independently out of your jurisdiction without reporting it.

-Sure you don't have another motive. -What do you mean?

Who knows?

It could be that you've come to sympathize with that bastard

after all the time you spent with him.

Hmm. Only you two would know that.

Shut up! I know why you carried out the plan to suppress them all.

You'll kill them to stop them from talking.

Isn't that why you dragged me here too?

Those people are terrorists!

The JEA is a symbol of peace, and we have to keep it safe

from the dangerous extremists.

You're just afraid that the summit could expose

what you and Jeon Yongsu are upto,

and then, maybe everyone would finally understand who's behind all of it.

Hmm.

Not only were you under him,

you're also under a spell of his unhinged beliefs, huh?

It's a bomb. We've found a bomb!

-There's a bomb! -I think that this is a bomb.

Search Team Two. We found explosives.

-Explosives were found! -We found a bomb!

Search Team Four, there's one here too.

Explosives found! South of Pyeonghwa Square.

One over here, too.

There are lots of explosives underground near Pyeonghwa Square.

What should we do?

Attention, all units, stand by until further notice.

So this is what they were after this whole time.

Huh?

If bombs go off at Pyeonghwa Square near a huge crowd,

the whole area would be in total chaos with death and injuries.

These assholes are gonna try to get away during all that!

They can't.

No, there's no way.

The Professor and the robbers have stuck to their principle

of not killing people this whole time.

Their principle, my ass.

They just faked a noble cause to buy themselves time to print the bills.

But they aren't…

If they really had some noble cause like that, why'd they set up the bombs?

Why'd they let you live?

Just a distraction tactic.

Don't you get that they played you until the very end?

You're wrong.

Get her out of here.

She's in the way.

-Take her to the station. -Come on, Chief.

No, please! Chief!

So I think we should probably evacuate the civilians

out of Pyeonghwa Square.

What if we do that and those bastards blend in with the crowd and escape?

Huh?

Kim Sangman!

-And the summit! -Cancel now!

-Traitor exploiters! -We're against it!

Kim Sangman!

-The summit! -Cancel now!

UNIFICATION IS NOT A MEANS OF MAKING MONEY

Seal off the area surrounding Pyeonghwa Square completely,

so not a single rat can escape.

BETRAYER KIM SANGMAN OUT! BETRAYER JEON YONGSU OUT!

If the bombs go off, there will be a lot of casualties.

The bombs can just be disarmed.

We're not gonna give those criminals any chance to escape the Pyeonghwa Square.

And if the bombs have to go off,

their little escape route will become their mass grave.

Do you mean the deaths of all the bank robbers

are more important than the lives of civilians and cops?

Your Ministry of State Security

feels the same way I do.

-What do you think you're doing? -I just need a second.

You were completely right.

Congressman Kim wants nothing more than to kill every single one of the suspects

and cover it all up.

I need you to help me.

I think I know where all of them are headed.

Are you saying they won't use the bombs?

It just seems more and more unlikely, though.

But on what grounds?

Personal emotions?

I'm not sure, but I just…

I don't think there's enough time to disarm the bombs!

Currently, the police are sealing off the Square without any explanation.

They're holding not only the protestors, but regular citizens as well.

As we mentioned before, citizens are gathering in Pyeonghwa Square

as the large protest is finally commencing.

Protestors are criticizing politicians…

This is the chief.

You need to evacuate the civilians in the Square, immediately.

What? What do you--

You want to keep your badge, or what? Keep them sealed off!

This is the chief! I repeat!

I'll take full responsibility for everything that happens from now on.

Evacuate all the civilians that are in the Square, right now!

Get moving, people!

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

Move!

-What is it? -What is going on?

What-- What's that?

What is that?

-What is that? -Is that a pig?

Huh? What is that?

Look over there. Take a picture, real quick.

Unidentified bills are falling from the sky.

It's a m-m-money bomb.

The explosive sounds that occurred in quick succession

near Pyeonghwa Square just moments ago,

turned out to be a stunt orchestrated by the Mint's robbers.

Here, at the scene of the incident, a flurry of new bills have been scattered

from the giant balloons that have been spotted around the area.

The police currently seem to have given up control of the situation.

Our reports indicate that the suspects have already escaped the Mint

and had managed to get the police off their trail.

ROBBERS ESCAPE THE MINT BILLS SCATTERED AROUND PEACE SQUARE

-Underground tunnel? -The Professor said.

There's a place only his father knew about.

I looked into that back when I was a spy,

but they were all closed off and there weren't any of them left.

Well, officially, there aren't any.

But he says one is still there, though.

Even if there is still one,

where would they go with all that money in the North?

The train.

The underground tunnels next to the JEA.

Is one near a train station?

It's time to leave.

Don't move!

Inspector, I think I know of a place.

KHABAROVSK KAESONG

-Let's go. -Let's go.

Captain!

Jungho?

It's Berlin.

You've got Seon Woojin on your mind, right?

How'd you know?

I learned the hard way from this operation.

Whether it's robbery or a revolution, ultimately it is all just done by people.

But you know what? Maybe… Maybe she's already on her way here now.

Maybe.

She's no ordinary woman.

Are you worried that she's gonna come here?

Or…

worried that she won't?

I'm not that sure.

Okay, we should go now.

Hmm.

Freeze right there!

Stop the train!

What I said earlier…

I truly meant all of it.

Okay then, stop the train right now!

You can just kill me, but you can't arrest me.

No way.

I'm going to get you and all of your robbers

and I'll put you on the stand.

For what?

Telling people they own these scraps of paper

that are printed at the Mint

and not the rich and the politicians who want to treat reunification

as a means to just make money?

Or is it…

because I lied to you?

If you want to have me convicted,

you should choose now.

The robbers, consisting of North and South Korean criminals,

have vanished into thin air with a large sum of money.

Their escape was like the finale of a grand magic act.

The thieves scattered cash worth 0.3 billion dollars over the Square,

which was crowded because of the summit.

This caused a huge commotion,

but the robbers were able to avoid the police.

What we did both inside and outside of the Mint

broke out all over the world,

thanks to YouTube, social media, and the foreign press.

Why were the Mint robbers able to print four trillion won

without any repercussions?

It was believed that the third round of summit was really an attempt

to print large-scale funding to rescue conglomerate companies

that participated in developing North Korea

under the pretext of economic cooperation.

And upon checking the serial numbers

of the money that was scattered over Pyeonghwa Square,

this has turned out to be true.

I, Kim Sangman,

did my part, and everything I could,

to bring success to the North Korean development project.

And all the additional funding that was required was rightfully determined

by the Special Committee of economic cooperation, following legal procedures.

In the face of this presidential election,

which will be a turning point in the--

Just like they always have,

the people with power leverage their authority

to conceal their crimes.

But the people came out to the Square to shine a light in the darkness.

Everyone was wearing our masks, North and South Koreans alike.

THE HOUSE OF PAPER IS OURS

FORMER LEADER JEON YONGSU MISSING

WAS HE REALLY SENT TO THE CONCENTRATION CAMP?

SEOUL HIGH PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

Congressman, do you have time for an interview?

Congressman! Please give us a comment.

Are the Congressman's allegations true?

The quote, "The house of paper belongs to the people,"

was gradually becoming reality.

Just be honest with us, okay?

I mean, a person can be persuaded by money.

You've checked all of my bank records. You froze my account.

-So, what money? -Hey, Woojin.

A year ago, we started this together.

Aren't you tired of seeing my face?

WANTED SUSPECT OF MINT ROBBERY SONG SUNHO

You're still here.

-You quit smoking? -Yeah, she kept telling me to.

You seeing someone?

Yeah, uh…

So this is why you just came running up to me.

Yeah, that's right.

-Oh. The bride… -She's from North Korea.

I met her after the case, when I was dispatched.

Great.

Good for you.

-Congratulations. -Thank you.

PLEASE JOIN US AS WE JOIN OUR FAMILIES.

That's beautiful.

Ah, I'm sorry, I thought the least I could do is tell you, so…

Why are you sorry for?

Well, your divorce suit is finally over now,

but the internal investigation

and the state compensation lawsuit are a lot, right?

Don't worry. It'll work itself out.

Inspector Seon.

DH LAW FIRM LAWYER SON SUNJOON

What in the world does a foreign law firm want from me?

You must know that the Mint case is quite famous.

It'll be our pleasure to represent you.

I appreciate the thought, but I don't have the money right now to hire someone--

Ah. Don't worry. We were hired by someone else to help you.

Then who hired you?

I can't give you any information about the client.

What are you looking for?

It's just an old postcard I had.

Ah.

Well, here. I found it all crumpled up there.

And I really didn't think that it was trash.

Excuse me, sir.

Is there a café nearby?

You know, coffee?

I don't speak English.

Sorry.

Actually, there's one that just opened up nearby.

The coffee there

is excellent.

Want some coffee?

Strange way to do business.

What do you have up your sleeve this time?

Not sure.

To be honest, I have a pretty incredible plan.

Want to hear it out?

In the history of crime,

it'll go down as a revolution.

I've worked my fingers to the bone for this ungrateful family,

and they won't even come out.

Hey, man, you can't move it like that.

-Be gentle with that. -Okay.

Hey, what is this? That one isn't mine.

Hey, man!

Huh? I just brought it down from the living room.

And I'm telling you it isn't mine.

God, it's heavy.

Load this inside.

Well, I hope you have a nice life.
