Coupang Play series ‘Office Workers’ has caught everyone‘s attention by revealing character posters and a teaser trailer for the 8 cast members who will announce the birth of a hyper-realistic office comedy that will captivate everyone in the first half of this year.

Coupang Play series ‘Office Workers’ is set in the midst of a crisis at small and medium-sized marketing company DY Planning, and is about MZ people’s office survival story as they become ‘sandwiches’ between AZ and GenZ.

The revealed character posters vividly capture the characteristics of DY Planning‘s employees, making people laugh. Starting with CEO Shin Dong-yup, and including manager Kim Min-kyo, section chief Lee Soo-ji, new deputy manager Hyun Bong-sik, superintendent Kim Won-hoon, employees Ji Ye-eun and Cha Jeong-won (Car the Garden), and intern Shim Ja-yoon (STAYC Yoon), the eight people we met as company family each boast their own ‘villainy-ness, revealing a cheerful and lively narrative and foreshadowing unstoppable laughter.

In particular, the character poster copies include ‘You know how to be smart, right?’, ‘Mom, I’m quitting’, ‘Huh? “I went home?” etc. The characteristics of the characters that will resonate with workers of all generations from AZ to GenZ are expressed in a variety of ways, foreshadowing the hyper-realistic real-life situations that will unfold in DY Planning and increasing curiosity.



The teaser trailer that was released together heightens expectations by introducing characters with strong personalities, from the type that people want to avoid at all costs at work to real-life characters with a high level of synchronization that seems like something we‘ve seen before. Starting with CEO Shin Dong-yup, who is losing sleep on the office sofa in a drunken stupor, the company life of various characters is depicted, and the turbulent future of DY Planning, which has no time to be quiet for a moment, is predicted, raising curiosity about the full story.

Additionally, there is the manager Kim Min-kyo with an explosive charm, the single manager Lee Soo-ji, the deputy manager Hyun Bong-sik with a surprising visual of a person born in 1984, the manager Kim Won-hoon who suffers under his smiling face, the stone-faced Ji Ye-eun who explodes when touched, the rookie Cha Jeong-won who is always cool, and the intern Shim Ja-yoon who is full of passion, heralding a fresh bomb of laughter with a feast of diverse characters.

‘Office Workers’, which heralds the landing of a hyper-realistic office comedy on a different level with a ‘lol-ism’ episode that mixes half script and half ad-lib with the realistic company life where hyper-realism is maximized, will premiere on Coupang Play on Saturday, February 22nd at 8 PM. It will be revealed.
