Lee Jun Hyuk was excellent as Eun Tae, balancing humor and frustration effortlessly. I enjoyed the show's commentary on employee treatment, workplace hierarchy, and the disconnect between management and workers. My biggest criticism is that Eun Tae constantly had to clean up other people's messes and justify himself despite proving his value time and time again.

It was a somewhat realistic portrayal of work life, from office politics and unreasonable management to the satisfaction that comes from doing a job well. The series makes it clear that money alone doesn't solve everything, and Eun Tae's journey becomes more about self-worth, purpose, and figuring out what he wants from life and I appreciated that the drama never treated winning the lottery as a magical solution. Instead, it showed Eun Tae navigating what truly makes him happy and whether financial freedom alone is enough to change his life.

Overall, it's a good workplace drama that understands a simple truth: happiness doesn't always come from escaping work. Sometimes it comes from finding meaning in it, building good relationships, and taking pride in what you do, even when the people above you make it harder than it needs to be.
