From Exhausted Boss to Unstoppable Force: First Teaser Drops for Office Comedy The Ordinary Jackpot
TVING has officially released the hilarious first teaser poster and trailer for its upcoming original series The Ordinary Jackpot, offering a relatable look into a overworked team leader whose life changes overnight.
Based on the wildly popular web novel Lotto 1st Place Winner Still Goes to Work, the office comedy follows Gong Eun tae (played by Lee Jun hyuk), a middle-management team leader grinding through the corporate hierarchy. When he hits a 1.3 billion won ($1 million USD) lottery jackpot, instead of immediately handing in his resignation letter, he walks back into the office with $1 million in his pocket—and a completely transformed attitude.
Watch the official first teaser trailer below:
$1 Million in the Pocket: Teaser Breakdown
The high-relatability teaser plunges viewers straight into the daily grind of everyday corporate life.
Gong Eun tae navigates packed subway commutes and arrives early at the office, only to be crushed between demanding upper executives and assertive junior employees. Just as his frustration reaches its peak, fate hands him a winning lottery ticket worth 1.3 billion won.
While 1.3 billion won is a life-changing sum, it isn’t quite enough to retire forever. Instead of quitting on the spot, Eun tae struts back into the office with a light, bouncy step and a sharp glint in his eye, boldly declaring: “I’m going to turn this company upside down.”
Armed with financial independence, Eun tae begins to see his job, his superiors, and his coworkers through a completely new lens—setting up a hilarious power shift in the workplace.
