Overview +
Gong Eun-tae, an ordinary sales team leader, wins first prize in the lottery and still shows up for work the next day instead of handing in his notice. With 1.3 billion won in winnings as a quiet safety net, he slowly stops swallowing everything the people above and below him throw his way. The series is adapted from Seo In-ha's web novel and directed by Yoon Young-bin. Lee Jun-hyuk plays Gong Eun-tae, Seo Hyun-woo plays Yang Jun-ho, the assistant manager who keeps clashing with him, and Oh Dae-hwan plays Jeong Seon-hyeok, head of sales team 4. The ten-episode TVING Original premiered on TVING on 10 September 2026 and began airing on tvN on 14 September. In its first week on air, 14 to 20 September, it drew a 4.483% rating among paid-TV households nationwide by Nielsen Korea's count and ranked third in the weekly chart for cable and general-programming channels.
Only 10X Tower, used for the company exterior, is in Pangyo in Seongnam; the Eunhaeng Hoegwan (Bank Hall), the Seoul Arts Center, Cheongjin Bokjip, Ttaengttaengi Yangcheoljip and the Banpocheon walking path are all inside Seoul. The company building and the Bank Hall are working offices, so see them from outside, and the two restaurants are easy to fit in over a meal.
