The second season of Coupang Play Series 'Workers' depicts real office survival in a psychological war with DY's real office workers who dream of leaving work on a monthly salary, real office workers, and DY's employees who propose promotions for Cho Yo-jung and Jung Sung-il as clients in episode 5. Jo Yeo-jung, the main character of the 'Armadillo GIF', acted as a 'laugh-inducing person' who dominated the atmosphere with a smile and a calm response that did not shake despite any mischievous ad-lib. Jung Sung-il, who received attention for playing the role of 'Ha Do-young' in 'The Glory', caused heart-wrenching tension by playing 'Nice Kim Won-hoon Killer' that firmly blocked Kim Won-hoon's ad-lib.
Kim Won-hoon was properly beaten by Jung Sung-il's 'adrib iron wall defense'. Jung Sung-il shot Kim Won-hoon's gag style head-on, saying, `The endless ad-libs are not good enough,' and Kim Won-hoon laughed with a real reaction that went from sighing, laughing, and even a straight face at the unexpected fastball. Kim Won-hoon's hardship, which became 'neobuk' due to the continuous attack, turned the scene into a sea of laughter, and the two's tiki-taka emerged as a key laughing point of the episode.
On top of that, Baek Hyun-jin's persistent jobdori 'Hoo' also emerged as a laughing point that cannot be left out on this day. In the DY planning personnel evaluation, Baek Hyun-jin's ad-lib attack, which began to stimulate Kim Won-hoon by defining him as 'below average', broke the situation one after another. Employees created 100% pure laughter with exquisite breathing that saved scenes that were ambiguous whether it was a real situation or a virtual one.
On this day, Hyun Bong-sik, who was on the verge of resigning from his position, along with Kim Won-hoon and Ji Ye-eun, began a counterattack. When he was driven as the culprit of the anonymous bulletin board gossip, Hyun Bong-sik expressed his friendship with Jung Sung-il and caused laughter with his high-level reaction that included a serious face and smile. In particular, the real culprit was revealed as Hyun Bong-sik at the end of the fifth episode, and 'Workers' changed rapidly into an anti-war drama.
On the other hand, materials reflecting the reality of 'real office workers', such as personnel evaluation with unclear standards and anonymous bulletin boards that courageously poured out complaints from work life, gave both empathy and bitterness. Employees' rating of 'Hoo Manager' against unreasonable evaluation provides vicarious satisfaction and exhilaration, once again imprinting the charm of 'office comedy.
