• tvN Monday-Tuesday Drama 'I'll Go to Work Tomorrow!' Interview with Actor Seo In-guk, who plays Kang Si-woo

Actor Seo In-guk revealed the charm of office romance dramas in 'I'll Go to Work Tomorrow!'.

On the 29th, Seo In-guk shared various insights during an interview held at a café in Jongno-gu, Seoul, regarding the tvN Monday-Tuesday drama 'I'll Go to Work Tomorrow!' (written by Kim Kyung-min, directed by Jo Eun-sol).

'I'll Go to Work Tomorrow!' is an office romance where Ji Cha-yoon (played by Park Ji-hyun), a 7-year veteran employee suffering from daily monotony, and her sharp-tongued boss Kang Si-woo (played by Seo In-guk) become each other's irreplaceable bests, reigniting excitement in both work and love.

In the drama, Seo In-guk portrays Kang Si-woo, a section chief at Saem Electronics' DA Business Division who prioritizes principles and efficiency above all else.

Regarding the unique advantages of romantic comedies, Seo In-guk said, "They make your heart feel warm. That's why I've loved rom-coms since I was young." He added, "In genre dramas, audiences cheer for protagonists overcoming hardships and adversity, but in rom-coms, viewers watch with the hope that 'these two will end up well together.'"

He further highlighted the distinctive charm of office romance dramas. Seo In-guk remarked, "I think the office aspects are somewhat sexy. Doesn't someone look sexy when they're fully immersed in their work? The greatest strength of rom-coms set in offices is that people become sexy when sacrificing for love and also when deeply focused on their tasks. Since colleagues work together in the same office, their cautious, edge-of-your-seat interactions make viewers feel dizzy, sexy, cute, and endearing."

On appearing consecutively in office dramas such as 'Monthly Boyfriend', 'I'll Go to Work Tomorrow!', and 'The Employee Who Sees Fate', he stated, "It wasn't intentional to do office dramas back-to-back. It just happened because they were fun."

He also emphasized the differences from his upcoming project 'The Employee Who Sees Fate'. Seo In-guk explained, "While 'The Employee Who Sees Fate' is also an office drama, its setting is entirely different. It features a character with supernatural abilities. Unlike Park Kyung-nam in 'Monthly Boyfriend' or Kang Si-woo in 'I'll Go to Work Tomorrow!', who were already top-tier characters, this new role starts as a bottom-level intern and climbs upward. The way he overcomes challenges within that journey leans closer to fantasy."
