From melodrama to action, actor Ji Chang-wook, who effortlessly traverses multiple genres and is active as a "life-character maker," grants as a guest in episode 8 of season 2 of the Coupang Play series "Office Workers" (directed by Kim Min, Kang Na-rae).
The Coupang Play series "Office Workers" season 2 is a real office survival story unfolding amid DY Planning's true office workers who dream of payday heists and leaving on time, and psychological battles with star clients.
The released trailer captured Ji Chang-wook's meeting scene, with Saeun of DY Planning present. "Our company is in trouble right now. We really need to get results from this meeting with Mr. Ji Chang-wook," warned "Deputy General Manager Hu" Baek Hyun-jin, heightening the tension, but Baek Hyun-jin, who actually became blind to results and fixated on Ji Chang-wook's live broadcast with 2,770,000 followers, watches the employees filling their personal agendas with teary eyes and elicits laughter with the weak line "Well, enjoy it while you can…"
To make matters worse, Kim Won-hoon, who claims to be a "lookalike of Ji Chang-wook," throws himself into a brutally realistic two-shot that reflects a harsh confrontation, prompting bursts of laughter. When Ji Chang-wook, who turned on a subtle defense mode saying "I'm the client," reacts, the tense scene in which Baek Hyun-jin was trying to restrain Kim Won-hoon continues, setting expectations for "the second round of the mutiny brawl."
Breaking through the serious atmosphere as DY Planning stands at a crossroads of life and death, the arrival of an uninvited guest was foreshadowed. When Ji Ye-eun's revelation that the guest, whose identity was obscured by mosaic blurring, was Lee Su-ji's ex-husband suddenly turned the mood into a "morning drama," employees' reactions that erupted into "popcorn time" mode and dopamine spikes drew interest. Attention is focused on the identity of Lee Su-ji's ex-husband and why he suddenly showed up at his ex-wife's company.
Their push-and-pull chemistry, which blurs reality and direction, will be released on Coupang Play at 8 p.m. on the 27th. Season 2 of "Office Workers" can be watched for free on Coupang Play by Coupang Wow members as well as regular members.
