Football Stars Meet Office Shenanigans
What happens when world-class footballers crash an office comedy? Pure chaos, apparently. The upcoming episode of ‘Workplace’ Season 2, dropping on Saturday, May 23, promises just that—with Tottenham Hotspur’s Son Heung-min leading the charge alongside teammates Ben Davies and Micky van de Ven. The twist? They’re not playing football.
DY Planning Goes Global
The Coupang Play workplace mockumentary has earned major buzz for its hyper-realistic portrayal of modern office life with a comedic twist. This time, DY Planning’s employees take their marketing pitch to a whole new level—literally trying to land an ad deal with visiting football royalty after the recent ‘Tottenham Farewell Match’ in Korea.
Son Heung-min + DY Employees = Laugh Riot
The teaser shows comedian Lee Soo-ji attempting to carry Son Heung-min on her back while singing him a lullaby. Let that visual sink in. Meanwhile, Ben Davies looks like he’s having an out-of-body experience from all the energy. According to clips, Son battles a wave of awkward ad-libs from the cast—coining him the new ‘Don’t Laugh Challenge’ champion of K-variety.
Kwon Nara Brings Glam—and Panic
Actress Kwon Nara brings a blast of fresh vibes as the episode’s other guest, turning the office upside down with both her elegance and confused reactions. When the staff bombard her with oddly specific questions during her pitch walk-through, even DY’s CEO (played by Shin Dong-yup) has to phone a friend for fact-checking. “Do I… really have to do this?” Nara mutters, visibly panicking.
Where and When to Watch
The third episode premieres this Saturday at 8 PM KST on Coupang Play. And here’s the kicker: you don’t need a Wow membership to watch—it’s free for everyone. So clear your weekend and prep your snacks, because this one’s shaping up to be pure serotonin.
