'Everyone Is Fighting Their Own Worthlessness' Gu Gyeo-hwan, who has been struggling with his own sense of worthlessness, finally takes a step closer to his dream of becoming a film director by riding on the back of successful producer Kang Mal-geum.

In JTBC's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Everyone Is Fighting Their Own Worthlessness' (script by Park Hae-young, directed by Cha Young-hoon, hereinafter 'Everyone Is Fighting Their Own Worthlessness'), Hwang Dong-man (played by Gu Gyeo-hwan), who has endured a terrible sense of worthlessness while imagining sunny weather, finally sees his 'happy imagination' knock on the door of reality. In the upcoming ninth episode, a thrilling moment unfolds as Hwang Dong-man's screenplay 'We'll Make the Weather for You' is ultimately selected as a production support project by the Korean Film Council. The situation, where the new In Gam-dok-sang (수상)'s thoughts, which he has practiced countless times, are about to become reality rather than mere fantasy, is expected to deliver a thrilling energy of hope to viewers.

The released photo captures a decisive scene where Hwang Dong-man signs a contract with Go Hye-jin (played by Kang Mal-geum), the CEO of production company Ko Bak-pil-reum (CEO), at the Korean Film Council. Go Hye-jin, who coolly executed a stop-loss sale on Choi Dong-hyun (played by Choi Won-young), the representative consumed by foul desires, and Ma Jae-young (played by Kim Jong-hoon), chose Hwang Dong-man's screenplay, which was a second-tier project, despite incurring losses of tens of billions of won. Hwang Dong-man's tense expression, frozen before the 'real-world ring' he has never stepped on in his life, and Go Hye-jin's image, holding her center with sharp eyes, signal the start of the actual production phase and build anticipation to the highest level.

As Choi Dong-hyeon (CEO) said, whether Hwang Dong-man, who has moved from a critic who only talks big to a hands-on director, can lead over 200 staff members and actors who refuse to listen to his words on set and grit his teeth to finish the race is another key point to watch. Just as Go Hye-jin's chilling advice goes, "You have to get on the ring and take the hits," viewers are also sending their wholehearted support for Hwang Dong-man's passionate challenge to prove his worth in the far more ruthless reality of the film industry than imagination.

The production team stated, "Episode 9 will be an important turning point where Hwang Dong-man steps out of his long-held imaginary room and takes his first step onto the harsh ring of reality. With Go Hye-jin's unconventional decision, the symbiotic relationship between the two has been realized. Please watch how they navigate the rough waves of the film industry and observe Hwang Dong-man's growth as he approaches his directorial debut."

'Everyone Is Fighting Their Own Worthlessness' airs every Saturday at 10:40 PM and Sunday at 10:30 PM on JTBC.
