Comedy  Will Ryu Seung-ryong officially work..Ryu Seung-ryong, who retired from a chicken restaurant, is transforming head of a large company this time..Revealed for the second half of the year



Ryu Seung-ryong is returning as manager Kim.

JTBC's new drama 「The Story of Manager Kim」 (hereinafter The Story of Manager Kim who works at a large company in Seoul)」 (played by Kim Hong-ki, Yoon Hye-sung, directed by Cho Hyun-tak) depicts a middle-aged man who lost everything he thought was worth in a moment and finally discovers his true self, not the head of a large company, after a long journey.

In the play, Ryu Seung-ryong plays the role of salesman Kim Nak-soo, a 25-year veteran of the title role. As an ace who has never missed a promotion since joining the company with his excellent practical skills and sales skills, he has lived a life without any reluctance, having an apartment, forming a solid family with his wife and son in Seoul. However, Kim Nak-soo, who is gradually losing his place at work and at home over time, foreshadows a survival humanism that protects happiness by crying and laughing together.




In the meantime, confidence in the movie "Gwanghae', 'Gift of Room 7', 'Roaring Current', 'Extreme Job', as well as the dramas 'Kingdom' and 'Moving' made the public laugh and cry, is increasing. Regardless of the genre, I wonder what kind of inner workings he will use to stimulate viewers' emotions as he can pull off any character like customized clothes.

In addition, 'The Story of Manager Kim' is based on Song Hee-gu's novel of the same name 'The Story of Manager Kim who works at a large company in Seoul'. It has generated so much attention that it has reached 10 million community views, top decorations on the front page of various news, and 300,000 copies sold in a month. The appearance of 'Director Kim's story' and the appearance of 'Director Kim' that Ryu Seung-ryong will portray makes us look forward to a heart-wrenching emotion already.

The production team of "Director Kim's Story" believes that Ryu Seung-ryong is the perfect cast for the role of Kim Nak-soo, who will capture the joys, sorrows and sorrows of life"I hope that Kim's story, which everyone has seen and has experienced, will comfort many people living in this era," he said.




JTBC's new drama 『The Story of Manager Kim』 will premiere in the second half of 2025, which will convey the heavy presence of actor Ryu Seung-ryong, who has deep and deep experiences.
