Mimi, was this greedy for money? In 'Blank Check in Billions', "This must be necessary, right?"
Mimi, was this greedy for money? In 'Blank Check in Billions', "This must be necessary, right?"
The world of money in the 'Korea Mint Corporation', which defends even the greed of money the size of a pea, has been unsealed.

The 3rd episode of the SBS entertainment show 'No Entry to Persons Except Related Persons' (hereinafter referred to as 'Government Withdrawal'), which aired on the 15th, was decorated with the 'Korea Mint Corporation', the only currency manufacturing and supplying institution in Korea. Along with this, the viewership rating of 'No entry except for those involved' recorded 2.2% in the metropolitan area and continued cruising.

On this day, MCs Kim Jong-guk, Yang Se-hyung, Lee Yi-kyung, and Mimi parodied the popular global drama 'The House of Paper' and formed a gang of robbers, and knocked on the door of the Korea Minting Corporation ambitiously. However, the MCs were robbed of all toy guns from the entrance, and even Mimi's beauty world, who was overly immersed in the setting, was blocked by the iron wall of the person concerned. In response, Seo Jeong-hwan, head of the currency headquarters, expressed pride in Korea Minting Corporation's extraordinary security, saying, "There is no blind spot in the currency headquarters. Not even a piece of paper can go outside."

A full-fledged Korea Mint Exploration began, and the MCs couldn't keep their mouths shut when they saw the strong smell of money, the sight of uncut bills piled up, and even the rare sight of bills falling from the sky. In addition, I admired the hard work of the officials who made irregularities on the surface of the bill through several times of printing and made efforts to ensure that only perfect bills were circulated in the market by processing even minute errors as defects.

Among them, the officials said, "I've been working for about 2 years, and I've probably touched about 20 trillion won so far", "I see tens of billions of dollars every day, but when I look at the money I earn by working for a month, I wonder if it's just this", "At first, I didn't even want to take it with me. But if I work for a week, it's okay to see it as a product, not money," he said, revealing his candid feelings about working at Doncheonji.

Among them, Jung Kyung-won, the general manager of production, revealed an incident in which a battery worth 50,000 won, worth 1.4 million won per sheet, was lost. He said, "There was a report that a 50,000 won battery was missing on the last day of December 6-7 years ago. All employees stayed up all night and found it at 4 am. If it was, I wouldn't have been able to leave work until I found it."

Jeong Kyung-won notices the movements of the MCs who are aiming for 50,000 won banknotes (defective bills) with the back of their heads, and also blocks Mimi's pea-sized greed for money, asking brightly, "Shouldn't you take the money?" I did too.

On this day's broadcast, an interesting fact was also revealed that 'Korea Mint Corporation' produces passports, gift certificates, and medals, not money. Among them, Mimi, who saw the real thing for the first time in her life, said, "This must be necessary? There must be someone who needs it," causing culture shock and causing laughter.

All 12 types of decorations were made by hand by painting gold plating on 100% silver. Among them, Kim Jong-guk, who saw the 'Culture Medal' recently received by BTS and Lee Jung-jae, suddenly said, "Shouldn't I receive this at least once before I die? added Kim Jong-guk and Lee Yi-kyung said, "The powder generated during work is collected like a silver collection campaign. Even if you sneeze, it will be a big deal. When washing your hands, wash your hands with water in a large basin. He also expressed his respect for the medal and Won Yong-sang's thorough professional spirit.

For the first time in 'No Entry to Personnel Related Persons', he met Gaseong-hyeon, the head of the team who designed the portrait of Shin Saimdang in the 50,000 won bill, and was a member of the 'Special Stamp Design Team' in charge of designing the banknote. It was also released, and it also captured the tension of the security guards armed with rifles guarding the cash transfer site. In addition, he met Shin Hwa-seop, head of the anti-counterfeiting research center, and encountered the mysterious security elements in banknotes, looked back at cases of counterfeit bills that occurred in Korea, and even revealed tips for preserving damaged money. It perfectly satisfied the original curiosity of viewers. Furthermore, "Money is just a product", and the beliefs of the Korea Mint Corporation officials who show a thorough professionalism were expressed in a lumpy manner.

In the 4th episode of 'No entry except for related persons', it was announced that everything in the 'National Assembly Building' would be unsealed with Dindin, a special daily official.
