Actor Lee Jun-hyeok revealed what he would like to achieve if he were to win the "lottery first prize."

On the morning of the 8th, a production presentation for TVING's new original series "Lottery First Prize Also Goes to Work" (hereinafter "Lottery First Prize") was held at Seoul Yongsan-gu CGV Yongsan i-Park Mall. Director Yoon Young-bin, along with actors Lee Jun-hyeok, Seo Hyun-woo, Oh Dae-hwan, Hong Jin-ki, Ha Yul-ri, and Baek Ye-in, attended the event.

"Lottery First Prize" is a K-workplace office drama about team leader Gong Eun-tae (played by Lee Jun-hyeok), who endures day after day amid constant ups and downs. After winning the lottery first prize, he returns to work with a changed mindset, carrying 1.3 billion won in winnings instead of submitting a resignation letter.

On this occasion, when asked what he would like to achieve if he were to win the "lottery first prize" as depicted in the series, Lee Jun-hyeok replied, "I want to invest in the work."

He then added, "'Lottery First Prize' feels similar to reality. If a work becomes a hit, people might think, 'Could this be a huge success? Will my life change?' But in fact, that doesn't happen. Work must continue; if anything, responsibilities grow larger, and more study is required. It's just a series of such moments."

He continued, "What resonated most with me about Eun-tae was his love for his work. I think I also love my work. But that makes it difficult. Because we love it, we feel the difficulty. Games are made to be fun, yet once you play them for a while, they become hard and frustrating, don't they? Just as one endures and works hard because they enjoy something, even if I win the lottery or hit an unbelievable jackpot, I will continue doing this work."

"Lottery First Prize" consists of 10 episodes in total. It will premiere on TVING at 6 p.m. on the 10th and can be viewed every Thursday at 6 p.m. Starting from the 14th, it will air on tvN every Monday and Tuesday at 9 p.m.
