Actors Jang Ki-yong and Ahn Eun-jin will guest on "Manager Seojin" as the show’s fourth “My Star” duo.
SBS’s Friday variety series "Manager Seojin" is an on-the-go talk show where Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu play one-day managers, shadowing a celebrity through a full day. The buzzy newcomer has already tallied 10 million cumulative short-form views online in just three episodes and spent three consecutive weeks in Netflix’s Today’s Top 10 TV in Korea, landing in the Top 5 amid fierce variety competition.
On the Oct. 24 episode, Lee and Kim take on manager duty for Jang and Ahn.
Ahn Eun-jin, who cemented her acting chops in "Hospital Playlist" and "My Dearest," recently kept her hot streak going with the talked-about series "Genie, Make a Wish." After completing his military service in 2024, Jang Ki-yong made a smooth comeback with "The Atypical Family" and continues his run as a melodrama ace. The pair will also headline SBS’s new Wednesday-Thursday rom-com "Dynamic Kiss", premiering Nov. 12, teasing plenty of swoon-worthy chemistry.
For the first time, "Manager Seojin" will juggle two stars at once. In a teaser clip, Lee and Kim head to the "Dynamic Kiss" set and, overwhelmed by their high-energy clients, gasp, “We can’t do this anymore,” working up a sweat and serving big laughs.
Ahn’s signature sunshine reportedly even draws a rare dimpled smile from the usually prickly Lee Seo-jin, while Jang declares himself a die-hard Kim Kwang-kyu fan―humming “Open Sesame” on repeat and keeping the set grinning.
Led by Jang and Ahn, "Dynamic Kiss" follows a single woman who disguises herself as a mom to land a job and the team leader who falls for her―an office romance built on mutual pining. Viewers are already curious to see their real-life chemistry previewed on "Manager Seojin".
Catch Jang and Ahn’s effortless rapport―and Lee and Kim’s hilariously exhausted manager chronicles―on "Manager Seojin", airing Friday, Oct. 24 at 11:10 p.m.
