Faking a hostage situation there will give us nine days to print the money
and dig our escape route.
Once Moscow secures the route, I mean.
But I'm not sure if I can dig a path like that all by myself, you know.
It'll be possible. The mercenaries will dig from the outside too.
[Nairobi] But, wait. How do we move the money?
Four trillion won is a lot of cash.
We'll use the sewer system.
If we use those rubber boats, it should take two hours.
[exhales]
This is our exit.
If you go there, a disguised truck will be waiting for you at the hideout.
Move the money onto the truck
and we vanish.
But this isn't some magic trick, though.
The police will be hunting us down from the second we step foot outside the Mint.
That's why it's on the same day as the Inter-Korean Summit.
Exactly ten days into the heist, the summit will be held near our base
at the Pyeonghwa Hotel.
Does that mean security will be even worse?
Yes.
Politicians from both the North and South
are putting everything on the line for this summit.
[cameras clicking]
[pensive music playing]
By then, the people would know that the real robbers
are the politicians, not us.
So they'll flood Pyeonghwa Square.
Then, chaos ensues.
[thrilling music playing]
[heavy breathing]
TAEDONG RIVER BEER

[whirring]
TAEDONG RIVER BEER
[sighs]
[exhales sharply]
You ready?
[sirens wailing]
[officer] They took weapons!
[protestors yelling]
AGAINST OPPORTUNISTS WHO STEAL MONEY
[all clamoring]
[chuckles]
[protestor] Don't stop fighting!
THE HOUSE OF PAPER IS OURS
[protestor] Punish Kim Sangman! Punish Jeon Yongsu!
Be gone! Be gone!
Traitor! Kim Sangman!
Traitor! Jeon Yongsu!
Be gone! Be gone!
[protestors clamoring]
But Oslo's dead already.
[Moscow clears throat]
[exhales]
[theme song playing]
[groans]
Helsinki! Helsinki!
-[tires screeching] -Helsinki!
-No! -[crashing]
[Moscow] Guns!
[Denver grunts] Fuck!
Hurry!
Here!
-[gun fires] -[grunts]
-[Moscow] Berlin! -[Tokyo] Berlin!
[Denver] Berlin!
-Rio! Get it together! -[whimpering]
Let's go! Get back!
-[guns firing] -[yelling]
[Denver] Dad!
[yelling indistinctly]
[screaming]
-[guns firing] -No!
[groaning]
[tires screeching]
[guns clicking]
[guns firing]
[officer] Situation is under control.
[grunting]
[Rio whimpering]
No! No! No!
No!

[theme song continues]
MONEY HEIST: KOREA - JOINT ECONOMIC AREA
[gasps]
[Tokyo] Rio.
You listening?
Yeah.
Mmm. I know you're a bit nervous now that the summit's been moved,
because that means we need to escape even earlier than we originally thought.
[Nairobi] We've been printing a lot of money.
But the escape route isn't ready yet.
Exactly. Will this work?
Can't we just stay in here and forget the summit?
No, we can't.
Once the summit is over, they'll come after us in here,
because we'll be the police's top priority then.
Everyone got it?
So tomorrow… [sighs]
…we need to get out of here.
We'll have to hurry.
Let's try to make use of the remaining hostages.
The escape route isn't done, so I'll send most of the hostages there.
This is important, so tell Moscow the plan.
Will do.
Mmm.
[pensive music playing]
Uh…
Hey, Tokyo, hold on.
So the, uh…
The Professor just decided to move the date based on assumptions, right?
Okay, so?
Professor didn't even expect
the cut in communications or Oslo's death.
Think about it. How does the Professor know
that the summit will be moved without any evidence at all?
The Professor is not a prophet, but…
He's our leader.
[sighs] Okay, but…
if that leader is trying to hide something from the rest of his followers,
is he trustworthy?
Do you know why Berlin came here despite his illness?
It turns out that he and the Professor are brothers.
The Professor made us hide our real names,
but hid the fact that he's Berlin's brother.
[inhales deeply]
Tokyo, did you know about this?
I just found out too.
[Rio sighs]
So, Berlin is from a concentration camp, and the Professor, from the North.
I don't really know what their whole grand plan is in all of this heist thing,
but I know it's not about the money.
I bet those two won't even care at all if they died doing this.
[inhales]
Just because somebody is willing to risk their life,
that doesn't mean that they welcome death.
It just means they'll do whatever it takes to make their dream a reality.
[gentle music playing]
Hmm?
[inhales deeply]
[exhales]
Sorry.
I just don't have any idea what that goal is,
but I'm not interested in this.
[Tokyo] Rio.
[sighs]
Dad, are you here?
Dad, where…
[strained grunt]
Oh God! Dad!
-The strongest men go with Helsinki. -[Helsinki] Right here.
[Denver] Rio!
Rio, where are you?
Someone get Rio down here!
Rio, hurry it up now!
-[Berlin] Rio! -[Rio] Jeez, what?
Rio, fucker! Get down here!
Dad! Dad, are you okay?
What's this?
Rio, help us. You… You have to do something.
What are we gonna do?
[Tokyo] Get his clothes off.
-Don't just stand there. Get first aid! -Okay.
-[Rio] Don't move. -I'm okay.
-[Tokyo] Be careful. -[Rio] Careful.
Those damn fucking bastards!
[Denver] Please. Quickly!
[Tokyo] As we approached to the start of the final act,
unexpected events were throwing our success into question.
Inside the Mint, Moscow was dying.
[man 1] Hey, sir. Wake up!
-Sir! -[man 2] Hey, man, are you okay?
[Tokyo] And outside the Mint, Cha Moohyuk, who knew where the hideout is,
was out of the Professor's hands.
[man 3] Call an ambulance!
[tense music playing]
[Woojin sighs]
[Tokyo] On top of that, the Inspector discovered the Professor's identity.
The Professor's plan, which had seemed so perfect,
was beginning to shatter into a million pieces.
[huffs]
[Chief] They needed more people to print money,
so they offered their hostages three billion won each.
The Mint's director fell for it also.
But how they'll actually pay them is--
The money is just bait.
The hostages wouldn't obey them anymore,
so the robbers just threw it out there.
But they're still so determined to keep holding out.
The summit is in two days from now.
Can't we just force our way in?
They did let a lot of the hostages go free,
and the rest decided to stay voluntarily, so for now, we can't.
The public opinion favors them too.
[sighs]
[officer over radio] It's Song Jungho!
Yes?
So what is it now?
Let's go.
Don't stop.
Stop now.
Listen! We let the hostages go, as we promised.
But your snipers shot at us, and because of that…
someone here has been injured!
This's ridiculous.
Tell them they didn't release them peacefully
and that we just acted accordingly.
That happened because you didn't release them peacefully
like you had promised!
I'm not here for your bullshit!
We ask that you send a medical team to treat him right now.
What do we do?
Let's just tell him to send the injured man to us for any treatment.
Send us the injured man and we can take care of him!
Those fucking sons of bitches!
Let's go.
Slowly. Back up slowly.
[sighs]
[door closes]
Do you think they'll actually send him to us, though?
Who knows?
It might be another game to buy time.
But if the injured person is a hostage, what…
It doesn't matter.
[phone chimes]
-Get the car! -[Chief] Wait. Where are you going?
Just wait here.
[suspenseful music playing]
[sighs]
[music continues]
The floor where Cha Moohyuk is is heavily guarded, ma'am.
There's no way in.
I'm not sure how much Cha Moohyuk knows,
but he knows this location at least.
If he tells the police, our operation is through.
But he might not wake up for a while, though.
We just can't proceed with that big of a risk.
Then… [sucks in air]
What if we use the Inspector?
We can't.
It won't work.
Why? But she's one of the only cards that we have left.
Hi, Woojin.
[Woojin on phone] Hi, are you at the café?
Uh, yeah. What's up?
[Woojin] Well, the thing is,
my colleague was in an accident, so I was on my way to the hospital,
but my car won't start.
I'm near the café, so I was wondering if you're not too busy…
I'll be right there.
Just give me a few minutes. Okay?
[suspenseful music playing]
[pained breathing]
[screaming in pain]
[groaning]
[sighs]
[breathing shakily]
I did everything that I can, but…
[Moscow groaning]
So, now what?
Huh?
[breathing nervously]
[continuous labored breathing]
Fuck! We can't even get in touch with the Professor.
[sobbing] This can't be happening.
I know it's tough, but focus on the operation.
We have to do what we can to escape before the summit ends.
That way, we can save Moscow
and our plan will succeed as well.
It's all over.
What is?
Hey, let's be real here.
The Professor's grand plan,
it has already failed.
That bastard. What the fuck is he going on about?
Hey, Berlin. Why don't you go ahead and tell them?
Then I'll tell them.
Professor is Berlin's brother.
They're both from the North and pretended to be from here.
Getting the public opinion on our side?
Making them believe we are revolutionaries?
Was that really for our sake?
Then what was it for?
Yeah, revolution? Revenge?
Why the fuck should I care about that?
Those commie bastards might be okay with dying for that shit,
but then count me out.
Don't you all feel the same?
-Rio. -[exhales]
Hey, Helsinki. Remember Oslo, who always followed the Professor's word, huh?
What happened to him now?
Huh? And you, Nairobi?
You wanna see your son again.
Will it be at your funeral?
[sobbing]
What about you, Denver, you dumbass?
You wanna save your dad, then send him out of here right now.
Getting treatment in jail is way better than dying here, right?
[sobbing]
You know what? I'm leaving.
'Cause even if my share is small,
I won't blindly follow the Professor's plan to an early grave.
And neither should all of you here.
-Fuck this shit! -Rio!
Is everything he just said true, huh?
We hid the fact that we're brothers,
but what Rio said is false.
Just be honest with me right now!
What about leaving on the day of the summit?
Is it really just to help escape?
[angered breathing]
Hey, Helsinki.
[Denver] Dad, Dad, Dad, you need to get up. Okay?
Just for a bit. We'll get you out of here.
I'm not going to leave here.
You're not going to leave, huh?
-[labored breathing] -Rather just stay in this place and die?
If I die, it'll be here.
I'm not going back to jail.
[sobbing] Dad, please. Please.
Just will you listen to me? Please!
Everyone, look here.
We're just wasting our time here right now.
The tunnel needs to be dug for you to escape.
There's not much left to dig.
I'll try to hang on in here, okay?
Moscow's right. We only have one day.
Then we'll know if the Professor was right, whether we like it or not.
Wouldn't it be better to work toward escaping
rather than just standing around here?
[labored breathing]
I'll be okay.
[grunts]
Okay.
Misun.
While I'm digging,
will you take care of Dad?
-You will? -Mm-hmm.
[breathing deeply]
Helsinki.
Stop wasting your energy on Berlin, and come with me right now.
We have to finish the tunnel if we wanna get out alive!
Hurry up, damn it!
[labored breathing]
[breathing heavily]
I'll be right here with you.
[Tokyo] To be completely honest, Berlin and I were just as anxious as Rio.
[breathes nervously]
All we could do was believe
that the Professor's assumption about the summit was correct.
KIM SANGMAN APPROVAL RATINGS DROP
The presidential election and the summit are in a state of crisis,
and you have an answer for it?
We'll push up the summit to tomorrow instead.
Wait, what are you talking about?
The summit isn't some party.
-You can't just change-- -Hold it.
Go on.
We're on edge right now because we're worried
that things might go wrong before the signing.
But all of the negotiations have been settled,
all we need to do is sign it.
It's just one day early.
If we can sign additional bailouts to North Korean companies--
Then we can enter the Mint without any fear of the public turning on us.
[snaps fingers]
[Sangman] With the disgraceful situation that continues to unfold at the Mint,
the anxiety of the public is on the rise.
[tense music playing]
[Tokyo] Things ultimately became even more uncertain,
thanks to the loss of communication.
[tense music continues]
[machines whirring]
[panting]
[Denver grunting]
[Sangman] Thus, the North and South
agreed to make the summit happen as soon as we possible can.
-And with that… -[Denver grunting]
…we've decided to move the summit forward by a day.
Sir, you still have not given an answer
regarding the information provided by the robbers from the other day.
Does this have anything to do with the robbers' allegation?
[reporter] Congressman!
[suspenseful music playing]
Hurry, get in.
Sorry, it look me so long. I couldn't find my keys. [chuckles]
[chuckles] That's it.
I thought for a minute that maybe I should've taken a taxi.
Ah.
I'm so sorry.
So, where is your colleague being treated right now?
It's Osung Hospital.
You know him too, right?
Captain Cha Moohyuk.
When you came by the TF that time.
Ah.
How are his injuries now?
I haven't gotten the chance to see him yet.
But I've heard that he hasn't really woken up yet.
[contemplative music playing]
Where's Misun right now?
I mean, she came back voluntarily. She should be working like us.
She's taking care of Moscow because he is injured.
[scoffs]
She's part of the team now, isn't she, eh?
It's a family matter, that's why.
[chuckles]
Just stop running your old mouth and get back to printing.
Maybe you should stop running your mouth.
Instead, take this and run with your legs.
Uh…
That bitch.
[sighs]
[labored breathing]
So, just hang in there and Taeksu…
[gasps]
I mean, Denver will help you get out of here.
[continuous labored breathing]
I know that you may not really, well…
like me.
[labored breathing]
Where's your hometown, dear?
It's Kaesong.
You went to school there. Correct?
Why would a smart, young lady like you
choose someone like him?
I feel like I've never really
done something by choice throughout my entire life.
It was because of my parents that I ended up going to college.
Dating was the same.
When the Director said he really liked me,
I dated him because I thought that my parents would like for me
to be with a powerful man,
even though he was lying about getting a divorce.
I wasn't really that sad at all.
Then I happened to meet your son and…
despite how immature and clumsy he seemed,
he was so sincere.
So, for the first time in my life,
I followed my heart and chose him.
And I'm so glad that I did.
At your age,
it's possible to feel that way.
But once you start to look all around you,
there are a lot of guys just like him.
You should have just left already.
Why on earth did you come back?
I thought I would die without him.
But when I see him now,
I feel like I'm alive.
You feel that way now.
But sooner or later, he'll go back to his old ways, and then…
you won't even be able to leave him
because you'll be a criminal too.
I know that I might regret it.
But if I just let go of your son and go on living the way I used to,
I'll regret that as well.
[breathes deeply]
[chuckles softly]
You go in. I'll wait right here.
Thanks so much.
Why don't you just come in with me? I don't think it'll take too much time.
Oh, yeah.
Why not? Might as well.
They're going in.
[suspenseful music playing]
Copy that.
Right.
[monitor beeping]
He disappeared when he was pursued for leaking inside information.
I never imagined he'd show up looking like this, though.
So, what happened to him?
Something must have happened to him when he was running away from someone.
It's not the police.
I believe it must be them.
You mean the robbers?
Maybe they went after him because he knew things
that he shouldn't.
[sighs]
After Captain Cha Moohyuk wakes up,
we'll be able to know what they are.
[Professor] When do you think he'll wake up?
Don't know.
Do you mind waiting here for a second?
I have to go speak with the doctor.
Go ahead.
[door slides open]
Backup standby.
[Dongchul on phone] Copy that.
[foreboding music playing]
If I don't make it back, continue the plan without me.
What are you saying right now?
If he talks now, everything we worked for is over.
In a hospital full of police,
it won't be easy to silence him for good,
but making it out will be even harder.
But what's the point of all of this if you end up getting caught?
If it means the success of our plan,
then I accept rotting in prison forever.
It's worth it.
[monitor beeping]
[gasps]
What did they say?
[sighs]
It'll take him few more days at least before recovering
and regaining his consciousness.
The doctor doesn't even know he can ever speak again.
Oh Jesus.
I want nothing more than to capture
the people who did this to Captain Cha right away.
[inhales sharply]
But I was moved from the TF so I can't do anything.
There is nothing I can do now.
[Professor inhales deeply]
[Woojin sighs]
[sighs]
[Professor] There's no need to worry.
Captain Cha Moohyuk…
I'm sure he'll be just fine.
[Woojin sniffles, sighs]
[sniffles]
Are you sure
you don't want me to give you a ride home?
I'm fine. The chief is coming here soon, and I'd like to speak with him.
[suspenseful music playing]
[car door closes]
Was that really the Professor?
Then why didn't you stop him, huh?
We have to catch the whole group to stop his operations.
He's been toying with the police and me this whole time.
He thinks we're in the palm of his hand.
And I'm going to show him just how wrong he is.
[phone vibrating]
[Professor] I'm on my way.
Cha Moohyuk's in a coma right now.
Looks like he's going to the summit.
Do you think his goal is terrorism?
We'll know soon enough.
You call the station and have them send backup.
[Dongchul] Okay, got it.
-[digging] -[Denver grunting]
[Helsinki] Take a break, will you?
If you keep this up, you'll be dead before your father is, okay?
[grunts, pants]
How about you get rid of all this dirt?
-[grunting] -[sighs]
[continues grunting]
[pensive music playing]
[beeping]
He just pulled over. That must be his hideout, right?
Block off all potential escape routes.
[pensive music playing]
[brakes squealing]
[officer] Damn.
[panting]
He's not here.
Suspect missing,
He seems to have entered the building.
His group may be inside, so everyone be careful.
[music continues]
[gasps]
[officer] Over here!
[startled breathing]
[disappointed breathing]
[Professor] I'm on my way.
FIVE MINUTES EARLIER
Cha Moohyuk's in a coma right now.
We put a GPS tracker on the Inspector's car, right?
We did. But why?
She's heading to our hideout.
-[thrilling music playing] -[startled breath]
Oh God.
[music continues]
[exhales]
-[engine revving] -[tires screeching]
I'm telling you, he's the Professor!
So you're saying he extracted valuable information from you, right?
What happened to Moohyuk?
I don't know, but he may have been attacked by his men.
Okay, and you could've caught him just now, but you missed him, right?
That's because I wanted to catch the whole group--
[Chief] You left the TF!
You should've just left this up to us. You said…
[sighs]
You said you've been dating him.
This is very serious.
Do you think I just let him go like that on purpose?
You can explain all that later.
But just know for now that you'll be suspended.
[grunts angrily]
[breathing heavily]
[screams]
[somber music playing]
So, she had her suspicions too?
Get rid of any evidence related to the Inspector.
But you know that already.
Anyway, Sangman announced
they've decided to push up the summit by a day.
I guess we should
hurry, then.
-[grunts] -[Denver grunting]
[Helsinki exhales]
Didn't you say that you'll find your own way out?
Well, I still need this hole to get out, you know?
[laughs]
[Helsinki sighs]
[Denver grunting]
[digging]
[Denver grunting]
[grunts, pants]
Hey, I'll take over.
You're back, huh?
Yep.
[Rio grunting]
Hey, dude, do you even know how to dig?
No, I don't, but I have to.
[grunts]
Do you really think that the Professor will get us killed?
I don't know.
All I do know is that I don't trust that guy.
[grunts]
Neither should you. Don't just assume that the Professor will help you.
Once the tunnel is dug,
take your dad and get out of here, you know?
The people here are so naive. [grunts]
[grunting]
When Tokyo said there were changes made to the plan,
I could picture how we'd escape here in my head, like a movie.
And?
We got killed at the end. All of us.
[grunting]
-[digging] -[Rio grunting]
Hey, Rio.
You should,
once we're done in here,
get out first.
[smacks lips]
You're the youngest out of all of us here, so…
[smacks lips]
And you have a family.
And what about you, man?
[sighing] Shit…
Well, I have to take care of my dad, you know.
And if he ever finds out I'm leaving the rest behind,
that old man will probably kick my ass.
[chuckles]
Now it's my turn.
These kids with no military training not knowing how to shovel.
-[grunting] -[digging]
[grunting]
[digging on the other side]
[Rio] You think it's the same? Huh?
Being killed by bullets or your father's fists?
Together we live, apart we die. Huh?
You never heard of that before?
-[grunts] -[Rio chuckles]
Hey, do you even know who first came up with that saying?
Goddamn.
[panting]
Yi Sun-sin. He said that, right?
[chuckles] It's Rhee Syngman.
He said that before he just ran away.
"He who seeks death shall live, and who seeks life shall die."
This's what General Yi Sun-sin said, man.
That quote's good. Huh?
[chuckles]
If you want to die, then you'll wind up alive.
And if you want to live, fuck it, you die! Goddamn it! God!
[startled breathing]
[grunting]
-[man, muffled] Hey! -[grunts]
Huh?
Did you hear that?
-[man, muffled] Hey! -Hey! Hey!
-[Rio gasps] -Who are you?
Can you hear me?
Yes! You're almost here!
-Ah, shit. -[gasps]
Oh God. [exclaims]
We fucking did it.
-Wait a minute. Hold on. -[crying with joy]
[Rio] Hey! Hey, hey!
Listen to me, guys. Moscow's badly injured.
-His condition's critical. -[continues sobbing]
[man, muffled] Don't worry!
We'll be ready to treat our boy as soon as he's through.
[screams with joy]
-Yes! -[sobbing] Yes! Thanks a lot!
[crickets chirping]
POLICE STATION JURISDICTION MAP
[footsteps approaching]
I thought you had to return that thing.
Why don't you take a break?
This is where Captain Cha was injured.
The Professor headed this way when leaving the hospital.
That must mean their hideout is somewhere between
here, and here.
Oh wow. That new mall is over there, I think. It's nice.
-Yeah? -Mm-hmm.
They must have good surveillance cameras, then.
[suspenseful music playing]
Uh, wait, you're leaving?
But Mina will be home soon.
You two should eat.
[concerned breathing]
Please take care of yourself, then.
You're the head of the family, remember that.
[labored breathing]
Wait. Please stay with me, Moscow.
[breathing anxiously]
Please, you have to.
-[labored breathing continues] -Moscow!
[Misun sobbing]
Go get Denver, right now.
Hurry.
[strained grunting]
[grunting]
[exclaims] We're through!
[Rio] What? Really?
Oh my God!
[both screaming with joy]
[Denver] Yeah!
-We're going to live now! -Yeah!
-Taeksu! [sobbing] -[Rio] We're through!
-Yeah! -Misun, hey, come over here.
[sobbing] Shit.
Misun, look right there. See there?
We reached the other side. We're going to live now.
[breathing heavily]
You should go now.
[sobbing]
[grunts softly]
[grunts frantically]
[somber music playing]
[labored breathing]
I'm sorry.
So are you awake now?
My dear.
Sorry for everything.
You said that our… our Taeksu…
[labored breathing] …would end up like me, right?
I worked my ass off
to remit just that.
Not quite.
Taeksu grew up well.
Dependable and strong-willed.
You think so?
Mm-hmm.
I didn't raise him wrong, then?
Who he is now
is because of you.
Thank you, my dear.
[labored breathing]
[Denver panting]
Dad, Dad, Dad! What's wrong, huh?
Come on, answer me.
Dad, Dad, Dad, I'm here for you. See?
I'm here. Look at me, Dad.
[sobbing]
-Dad. -Move. Move.
Rio, do something.
Shit. Dad!
Rio, you bastard. Do something, right now!
[breathing weakens]
Why are you
crying like that, Son?
Dad.
Are you awake now?
Yeah.
Dad, I just dug the whole thing.
[sobbing]
You did?
Yeah.
[Moscow] Good job.
Now we just… we just have to get out of here. Yeah?
-Then go. -[Denver sobbing]
Taeksu.
When you get out…
with Misun…
be good to her. Okay?
If you ever break her heart,
I will kick your ass.
All right, I won't, Dad.
[both sobbing]
[sobbing]
I love you.
I love… I love… I love you too, Dad.
I love you.
So just hang in there and wake up, okay?
In my entire life of digging and digging,
I've never truly had this much fun.
Thanks to all of you.
[sobbing]
Thank you all for treating
this old man
and his son Taeksu like…
your family.
I know this is late, but…
I am…
Oh Mansik.
Oh… Man…
…sik.
[somber music continues]
[inaudible]
D-D-Dad.
Dad.
Dad. What's wrong, huh?
Dad. Dad. Open your eyes, huh? Please.
Don't close your eyes. Please.
Dad. Wake up, please, Dad!
[sobbing] I dug the hole for you.
[sobbing]
[Denver] We… We just had to get out of here.
Dad… [sobbing]
[sobbing]
[Denver] What do we do? What do we…
[sobbing]
Dad.
[somber music continues]
[machines whirring]
What's going on?
You paying tribute?
Cheongmyung's idea.
He said it would save electricity too.
[sighs]
[clicks tongue]
[grunting]
I can do this alone.
You should rest.
[exhales]
No.
My old man hated to see me
slacking off.
I'm gonna get out of here and live a happy life forever,
just like my dad wanted.
[grunting]
-[digging continues] -[Denver grunting]
[footsteps approaching]
To be honest, that was the very first person I've ever seen die.
And I wonder how come Moscow looked so calm?
Everyone would still be alive if we never met the Professor.
Why was he so peaceful?
[Tokyo] The day I met the Professor,
my friend, who I used to rob loan sharks with,
was murdered right in front of me.
I'll never forget the face she made when her life slipped away.
I never wanted to see that kind of face again.
That's why I decided to work for the Professor.
So, how did you meet her in the first place?
She was the first friend I made after moving to South Korea.
I was a restaurant server
and I happened to see her gulping down leftovers there.
She saw me staring, and then she offered me some.
That's friendship right there.
-Was she from North Korea? -Like me?
No. She was South Korean.
[gentle music playing]
Ever since my father's death, I've lived solely as a South Korean.
In a world where money is key, I sold anything and everything I could.
And the last thing I sold
was my conscience as a scholar.
Our group will provide capital, and you, Professor,
will develop an economic cooperation plan.
Your work will be the key for the reunification of the Peninsula.
[Professor] But my plan to accelerate unification
was just a means of making them money.
This land has become a battlefield for capitalistic gains.
How a normal girl who loved K-pop turned to dangerous robbery,
and how your friend died like that,
is undoubtedly all my fault.
This is all because of those bastards.
The real robbers out there.
We still have time now
and a chance to reclaim the future they took from us.
[sighs]
Okay. I understand why you joined him.
But do you really want to risk your life like this for that?
I mean, is it really worth dodging all those bullets?
That's not the only reason I risked my life to get back in the Mint.
Then, why then?
You and I are on very different paths.
Where we come from, we were raised quite differently.
But like Moscow said, it's like we've become family, you know?
I'm sure that the Professor would--
Uh, sorry to interrupt you.
I have to keep digging now.
Denver's going to be pissed.
I'll see you later then, okay?
Hmm?
[chuckles]
[Tokyo exhales]
You know, when I first met you all,
I really couldn't stand any of you guys.
That's ditto.
[all chuckling]
Our reasons for joining and why we need the money
differs between us all.
But now that I'm at this point,
I don't really care about that anymore.
You guys are super cool.
[all chuckle]
What I meant was--
It's fine.
You don't have to launch into some big speech.
Right, Rio?
-Shit. -[all chuckle]
Okay.
No matter what it was that brought each of us here,
today, we're all getting out of here, together.
All right. Let's get moving now.
[upbeat music playing]
We're live in front of Pyeonghwa Hotel
where the Inter-Korean Economic Cooperation Summit is being held.
[reporter] A large crowd has gathered to celebrate Kim Sangman's success…
KIM SANGMAN IS THE ANSWER
…cheering for the unification of the Korean peninsula
and the economic development that was promised to come along with it.
[crowd chanting]
THE HOUSE OF PAPER IS OURS
UNIFICATION IS NOT A MEANS OF MAKING MONEY
-Kim Sangman! -Kim Sangman!
There are many protestors in the crowd who stand with the Mint robbers
and they're determined to ask the officials
for an immediate end to the economic summit.
AGAINST OPPORTUNISTS WHO STEAL UNIFICATION FUNDS
BETRAYER KIM SANGMAN BETRAYER JEON YONGSU OUT!
[faucet running]
[Sangman] Song Sunho?
That's the Professor?
I think he organized this plan after faking his own suicide.
[scoffs] I knew it.
How amusing.
What do you think we should do about the Mint, then?
The summit will finish after I write the signature.
Once it's over, force your way in.
Understood, sir.
[clicks tongue]
And,
the goal of this mission isn't arrest, but to terminate them.
[dramatic music plays]
-[reporter 1] There he is! Congressman-- -[reporters clamoring]
[reporters clamoring]
Yeah, the square looks as expected.
All right.
I'll be down.
-I… -[gun cocking]
[exhales]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Woojin breathing nervously]
What? You thought you could play me until the end?
This whole place is surrounded, so don't do anything stupid.
You chased me here, but you don't arrest me.
Is there something I can enlighten you on?
[breathing nervously]
Don't you move.
What do you want to know?
The way you radicalized the public…
was that just a ruse?
To escape here amid the chaos in the streets?
Is that all it was?
[tense music playing]
It's easy to be blind when you follow what you see.
What's important is your sense in direction.
That's how you know where to go.
You say any more of your bullshit
and I'll put a bullet right through your head now.
You're actually right.
We plan on escaping
amid the chaos.
So, the unification stuff…
was all bullshit?
Everything we found in your hideout,
what Berlin was saying to the cameras, all of those?
No.
That's the real reason I started this to begin with.
What?
My father lived in the North as a construction worker.
He was selected for a top secret mission.
To shut down rusty tunnels after the Cold War.
He did shut down every tunnel following his orders,
every single tunnel, except one.
Jungho's illness had gotten worse,
and he couldn't be treated in the North.
But before long, the party found out what my father did, so--
You were split up while defecting across Amnok River?
I know all this.
What I say next is important.
To get Jungho out of the camp, we needed money.
So, my father was committing a robbery
and he was killed.
You think you're the only one with a story like that?
That's the whole point!
Back then, I thought the tragedy was due to the division of the countries.
But even now, tragedies are being repeated over and over!
Why?
Because of those greedy bastards who sold the future of this country!
Stop with that bullshit now!
The summit that's happening over there right now
is not about unification or economic cooperation!
Those thieves are trying to take advantage of the popularity
for a fat load of cash!
You sure about that?
What's the evidence?
Capitalism revolves around profit.
So if unification guarantees that profit, they'll speed up the process
so conglomerates can maximize profits,
giving them exactly what they want!
How am I so sure of that?
Because I came up with that plan for them.
What?
Chairman Oh Jaeyun of Osung
and the politician he supported.
Oh God…
Yeah, that politician is your ex-husband, Kim Sangman.
I'm going to let the whole world know who the real robbers are.
By taking what's rightfully ours!
But you'll be a robber just like them!
[Professor] Once I got out,
I was planning on throwing my share of the money in the middle of the city.
And once people check the serial numbers on those bills,
they'll realize what we said was the truth.
Unfortunately, that'll never happen.
If I get arrested,
Kim Sangman will make sure I'm dead.
Didn't you come here alone because you knew that?
Even if I die,
let the world know how the robbers were able to print
that much money at the Mint all by themselves,
and what kind of money it is.
-[Woojin sniffles] -You have to.
That's the truth?
Because I don't want to lie
to you any more than I have.
My feelings for you have…
have always been real, though.
Cut that shit out.
You just wanted to use me for your plan from the start!
[Professor] At first, I did.
And I should have stuck to it.
I just could not do that.
[tense music playing]
[Woojin gasps]
Sorry.
[gentle Korean song playing]
