Actor Lee Jun-hyuk is returning as a unique K-office worker who chooses to go to work instead of submitting a resignation letter, even after pocketing a 1.3 billion won first-place lottery prize.
On August 12, the Tving original drama "The Ordinary Jackpot" (directed and written by Yoon Young-bin) released a teaser poster and trailer capturing the changed daily life of Kong Eun-tae (played by Lee Jun-hyuk) after winning the lottery.
Based on the popular web novel of the same name, "The Ordinary Jackpot" is a K-office drama that depicts the story of team leader Kong Eun-tae, who used to endure daily life crushed from above and below, heading to work with a different mindset after winning the first-place lottery prize of 1.3 billion won instead of handing in his resignation. Directed by Yoon Young-bin, who also directed the film "Tomb of the River", the series stars talented actors such as Lee Jun-hyuk, Seo Hyun-woo, and Oh Dae-hwan.
The released teaser poster draws attention by showing a first-place lottery winning ticket placed next to an ordinary employee ID card, alongside the twist phrase, "Going to work instead of quitting!" In the accompanying trailer, Kong Eun-tae shows his exhausting daily life enduring the crowded hell-subway, but after winning the 1.3 billion won, his eyes sparkle as he declares, "I'm going to turn this company upside down," previewing a refreshing counterattack.

Kong Eun-tae, played by Lee Jun-hyuk, is the youngest team leader of Sales Team 5 who has fiercely endured to live a smooth life, but undergoes a major change in his attitude toward work and life following the unexpected fortune of winning the first-place lottery. His light footsteps, started as he finally begins to see work and people now that he has money, are expected to bring deep empathy and cheerful catharsis to viewers.
"The Ordinary Jackpot" will be exclusively pre-released on Tving at 6:00 PM on Thursday, September 10, and will air on tvN every Monday and Tuesday at 9:00 PM starting Monday, September 14.
