Coupang Play's series 'Office Workers' (directed by Kim Min and Kang Na-rae) is set to launch its second season with a main poster featuring the intense impression of Baek Hyun-jin, who has started work as the new Director General. The series promises the birth of a black hole comedy that has an entrance but no exit.
Coupang Play's series 'Office Workers' season 2 is a real office survival story that unfolds among the genuine office workers at DY Planning, who dream of salary theft and early leaving, and the psychological battles with star clients.
With the first release coming on the 9th (Saturday), the main poster for 'Office Workers' season 2 has been unveiled, drawing anticipation daily. The poster features the humorous-looking CEO Shin Dong-yeop, along with Kim Min-kyo, Lee Soo-ji, Hyun Bong-sik, Kim Won-hoon, Ji Ye-eun, Cha Jung-won (Car the Garden), and Shim Ja-yoon (STAYC Yoon), as they all smile while looking at a computer monitor and present the copy 'DY Planning offers the best marketing solutions.' Although they have expanded their business into a 9-person corporation, there is an oddly uncomfortable yet mysterious atmosphere captured that piques curiosity about the story.
Along with the main poster, the 2nd teaser, which was released ahead of the first episode, features the new face of season 2, Baek Hyun-jin, acting as the Director General with an overwhelming presence that chills the atmosphere and captures the sharp reactions of DY Planning employees who are on the verge of being unsettled by his appearance, adding excitement.
Baek Hyun-jin is particularly sensitive during lunch hours, often singing a song unasked while introducing himself or expressing sudden rage through unexpected actions. However, he is portrayed as an elite Director General equipped with outstanding abilities, expertly finding out actions that the CEO Shin Dong-yeop would appreciate. Baek Hyun-jin is expected to evoke infinite empathy from viewers as a powerful character who embodies all the aspects one would absolutely want to avoid in a workplace superior.
The viewing point will be how the 'new Director General' Baek Hyun-jin, who unexpectedly rolls in, tightens the grip on 'current Director General' Kim Min-kyo, who is just a figurehead. Particularly, Baek Hyun-jin, a master of method acting whose performances blur the lines between reality and acting, will strongly press the employees. His comical exchanges during improv antics with the 'smart genius' Kim Won-hoon will elicit laughter, but the sight of him rapidly regaining composure and assuming a poker face raises the stakes, causing chaos among the DY Planning employees.
Kim Min and Kang Na-rae, who successfully established season 1 through fantastic teamwork, will also be in charge of the main direction for season 2. In season 2, they will depict not only the joys and sorrows of DY Planning employees led by the CEO Shin Dong-yeop but also realistically portray the intensified landscape of social life. With unchecked improvisational wit and fantastic teamwork that left the nation laughing, there is high anticipation for what remarkable 'laugh kicks' 'Office Workers' will prepare for season 2.
The show will be released every Saturday at 8 p.m. starting from the 9th, only on Coupang Play.
