Lee Jun-hyuk's lottery office drama hits Tving's top 2 — episodes 3–4 drop Sept. 17
'I Won the Lottery But Still Go to Work' tripled its subscription contribution overnight and ranks 2nd on Tving; episodes 3–4 stream Sept. 17 at 6 PM.
13억 won and he still clocked in
Lee Jun-hyuk's new Tving drama 로또 1등도 출근합니다 (I Won the Lottery But Still Go to Work) is already making noise. The day after its premiere, subscription contribution jumped roughly three times the first-day figure. The show now sits at No. 2 among major Tving titles by cumulative subscription contribution.
Episodes 3 and 4 drop on Tving on September 17 at 6 PM, ahead of the tvN linear broadcast. tvN aired episode 1 on September 14 at 9 PM and will continue with new episodes every Monday and Tuesday at 9 PM.
What the show is actually about
The 10-part office drama is adapted from a popular web novel of the same name. Lee Jun-hyuk plays Gong Eun-tae, a sales team leader who wins 1.3 billion won after taxes from the lottery. Then he shows up for work anyway instead of handing in his resignation. (The premise sounds absurd until you remember how many people would do exactly that.)
Seo Hyun-woo co-stars as Yang Jun-ho, a senior deputy who lost out on the same team leader promotion and now finds himself at odds with Gong Eun-tae.
Lee Jun-hyuk's range on display
For viewers who know Lee Jun-hyuk mainly from genre work, this is a different register. He played villain Ju Sung-chul in Crime City 3 and the layered prosecutor Seo Dong-jae across the Stranger series. He also appeared in 365: A Year Against Fate. A lottery-winner who refuses to quit his day job is a clear pivot from that filmography.
