'Actor Seo In-guk and f(x) member Jung Soo-jung (stage name: Crystal) have joined forces in the drama "The Company Employee Who Sees Fate."

'The Company Employee Who Sees Fate' is based on the web novel of the same name by author Yeong-wan, which has surpassed 43 million cumulative views. It is an office fantasy drama about a protagonist born with a fortune teller's fate, who can see through others' destinies, and who strives to live an ordinary life by forging his own path as a company employee.

'The Company Employee Who Sees Fate' brings together director Kim Jae-hyun, known for romantic comedies such as "Kisses Are Not for Nothing!" and "The Millionaire Lawyer," and writer Park Hye-jin, who wrote "Beautiful Man" and "Monarch: Master of the Mask."

'Seo In-guk and Jung Soo-jung have joined as the two lead actors, further raising expectations. They are set to portray the romance of two youths who defy fate and a thrilling office survival story.

'In the drama, Seo In-guk plays the role of Choi Young-hoon. Choi Young-hoon is a character born with a fate to become a fortune teller and cause chaos in the world, but he uses his ability to see through others' destinies through astrology and physiognomy to set things right in his chaotic surroundings and dreams of living an ordinary life. He has the ability to see someone's destiny just by holding their hand, without any prior information. Because of this, Choi Young-hoon spends 25 years far away from the secular world. At the age of 33, he is reborn as a fresh graduate with no fortune teller background entering society. Choi Young-hoon hides his special ability and lands a job at a top conglomerate called "Pil-sang Industrial," dreaming of an ordinary life where he visits famous restaurants during lunch breaks and enjoys sweet, relaxing evenings after work. However, he gets caught up in hidden corruption and greed throughout the company, as well as a massive power struggle, and faces unpredictable events.

'Seo In-guk will showcase a variety of performances, from a refreshing role where he punishes hidden villains within the company using his ability to see others' destinies just by holding hands, to a warm side where he wants to protect the person he loves. He will also display human moments where he desperately holds on to avoid being consumed by his own fate, further boosting the drama's immersion.

'Jung Soo-jung plays the role of Im Yeon-hee. Born with a fate surrounded by enemies, she is expected to deliver a highly synchronized performance as a proud ice princess who charges forward with resentment toward her given fate. Im Yeon-hee grew up in a chaebol family with a refined beauty and a confident aura that no one can approach, believing that "only I can protect myself." She has a strong sense of caution and a sharp personality, and particularly does not believe in unconditional love. After being expelled from the chaebol family due to an incident in her childhood, she returns confidently after a grueling study abroad period, having acquired perfect credentials and business skills. With a cold survival instinct that pursues perfection in every aspect, she endures through a fierce succession struggle and internal company intrigue. She learns of the abilities of her fellow new hire, Choi Young-hoon, who can help her, and they begin to forge their destinies together.

'Jung Soo-jung will portray the emptiness and resentment of Im Yeon-hee, who had to become even tougher to survive in an environment where no one protected her. Additionally, she will showcase an unexpected charm where, despite her sophisticated and proud image as a chaebol heir, she stumbles and displays a cute clumsiness in front of Choi Young-hoon, who can see through her.

'The production team of "The Company Employee Who Sees Fate" stated, "We are very pleased to work with Seo In-guk and Jung Soo-jung, who possess unique charm. Above all, the visual synergy of the two actors, who boast a high synchronization rate with the original characters, will maximize the work's synergy. We are confident that the chemistry between the two protagonists who forge their destinies together, as well as their scenes of overcoming obstacles with thrilling fortune-telling, will bring both thrilling tension and excitement to viewers. We ask for your interest and expectations."

'The Company Employee Who Sees Fate' will be available in the first half of 2027.
