What would you do if you won the lottery jackpot? To Lee Jun-hyuk, the answer is rather unexpected: going back to work the very next day. TVING has unveiled the first poster and teaser for « The Ordinary Jackpot », his new drama adapted from the webtoon of the same name, set to premiere in September 2026.
1.3 billion won… and still at the office
Lee Jun-hyuk plays the role of Gong Eun-tae, an ordinary employee who worked tirelessly in the hope of leading a quiet, uneventful life.
Promoted more quickly than his colleagues, he became the youngest team leader at his company. It’s a position that’s far from comfortable, however: caught between his superiors and his team members, Eun-tae faces daily pressure from both sides. Until the day his life takes a completely unexpected turn: he wins the lottery jackpot—1.3 billion won (about $907,000).
It’s a substantial amount, but not necessarily enough to completely transform his life overnight. And most importantly, contrary to what one might think… Eun-tae doesn’t quit his job.
«I'm going to turn this company upside down.»
The first poster perfectly captures the drama's concept by pairing the winning lottery ticket with Gong Eun-tae's business card.
Far from displaying the euphoria of a new millionaire, he maintains an almost impassive expression, while the slogan proclaims: «Go to work instead of quitting!»
The teaser, meanwhile, focuses on his exhausting daily life: grueling commutes, arriving at the office before everyone else, and constant pressure from both his superiors and his subordinates.
When he finds out about his winnings, Eun-tae naturally imagines for a moment how nice it would be to walk away from it all. But in the end, he decides to go back to the office.
With one major difference: his attitude toward work has completely changed. Since he no longer has the same fear of losing his job, he seems determined not to passively put up with his work environment anymore.
The teaser shows him declaring, with a newfound look in his eyes, «I’m going to turn this company upside down.» It remains to be seen just how much this newfound financial freedom will change Gong Eun-tae and the way he deals with those around him.
Translation of the teaser
«Come on, let's get started. Why don't Gong's team handle it? It would be better if his team did it.»
