If you watch ‘the glory' on Netflix, 
you can hear this expression in the first episode.
Yeon-jin’s daughter says this. 

우리 엄마는 주인공이 아니에요. (My mom is not a leading role)
우리 엄마는 부자니까요.(Because she’s rich)
주인공들은 원래 다 가난하니까.(Because the leading roles have always been poor)
You can hear ~~니까 in common. 

In Korean language, there are several expressions meaning “because”.
Some of You may already know about that. 
The basic thing is “~~이기 때문이에요”, “~이기 때문에”
If we replace the lines with ~~이기 때문에, 

우리 엄마는 부자이기 때문이에요. 
주인공들은 원래 다 가난하기 때문에. 
But you can also use “~~니까” instead of ~~때문에

우리 엄마는 부자니까요. 
주인공들은 원래 다 가난하니까. 

Here are other samples. 
사람이니까 실수할 수 있어요. Because you are a human, you can make a mistake.
더우니까 아이스크림을 먹고 싶어요. Because it’s hot, I want to have an Ice-cream.

Don’t forget this.
