Lee Jun-hyuk casting story revealed for lottery-winner office drama 'Lotto Winner Still Goes to Work'
TVING posts the director's casting breakdown for Lee Jun-hyuk as *Lotto Winner Still Goes to Work* enters its second week on air.
The casting story the director wanted to tell
TVING and tvN's Lotto Winner Still Goes to Work dropped a new casting behind-the-scenes video on TVING's official YouTube channel. The director walks through his choice of Lee Jun-hyuk for the lead role. Two other videos hit YouTube this week: "I'm Good at Smiling Too… Let Me Join Honorary Sales Team 5" on tvN's channel, and "Sales Team 5's Next-Level Ad-libs" on TVING's.
Lee Jun-hyuk plays Gong Eun-tae. He's the team leader of Sales Team 5 at Hongseong International, a man caught between pressure from above and below, grinding through every workday. Then he wins the lottery jackpot. 1.3 billion won. He doesn't quit. He walks back into the office and keeps showing up. (The director's verdict on the casting: "He has it all.")
The show and its cast
The drama is a 10-episode K-office series adapted from a web novel. It premiered on September 14, 2026, following My Favorite Employee, which ended September 8. Episodes 1 and 2 were pre-released on TVING on September 10.
The broadcast schedule splits across two platforms. TVING airs every Thursday at 6 PM. tvN runs Monday and Tuesday at 9 PM.
Seo Hyun-woo plays deputy manager Yang Jun-ho. O Dae-hwan plays Jung Sun-hyuk, team leader of Sales Team 4.
