Based on the webtoon of the same name, «The Ordinary Jackpot» will offer a rather different take on the traditional fantasy of the lottery winner.
Lee Jun-hyuk plays Gong Eun-tae, head of Sales Team 5 at Hongsung International. An ordinary employee accustomed to the daily grind of corporate life, his luck suddenly takes a turn for the better when he wins the lottery jackpot. His winnings total 1.3 billion won, or approximately 900,000 euros.
It was a considerable sum, to be sure, but not enough to allow him to completely transform his life and disappear overnight. And contrary to what one might imagine, Gong Eun-tae did not decide to walk out on his company. He simply went back to work… the very next day.
The same job, but a whole new way of experiencing it
Even if his work environment remains the same, Gong Eun-tae no longer sees things the same way. His windfall will gradually change his relationship with his work, his colleagues, and his own life. Rather than focusing on how the money materially changes his daily life, «The Ordinary Jackpot» explores how this experience will push a perfectly ordinary man to transform himself.
An idea that should allow the drama to explore office life with humor and realism, but also this question: What would we actually change in our daily lives if we suddenly no longer had exactly the same financial concerns?
Seo Hyun-woo will play Yang Jun-ho, an assistant manager on the same sales team as Gong Eun-tae. Oh Dae-hwan will play Jung Sun-hyuk, the head of Sales Team 4, setting the stage for various dynamics among the employees and teams at Hongsung International.
