According to Namdaemun Police Station, the black backpack was stolen while its owner was ordering food at the restaurant.
Investigators say that the suspects may have planned the theft and followed the bag owner into the restaurant.
CCTV footage shows the suspected thieves playing different roles to commit the crime, with some diverting the public’s attention and others preparing getaway cars.
Police said the suspects escaped from the scene on two separate taxis.
They believe the suspects may have already left Korea.
According to police, the number of theft cases committed by foreigners in Korea is on the rise, from 1,735 cases in 2012 to 2,306 cases in 2015.
