Jo Jung-suk and Lee Seo-jin's Hilarious Reunion: 'Annoying Manager' Duo Promises Laughter

A preview of the reunion between actors Jo Jung-suk and Lee Seo-jin aired on SBS's 'My Annoyingly Picky Manager - Secretary Jin'.

In the episode broadcast on the 7th, Lee Seo-jin and Kim Gwang-gyu were busy managing the promotion schedule for the movie 'Sculpture City,' starring Ji Chang-wook and Do Kyung-soo (D.O.). However, the situation turned comical when Lee Seo-jin was late from the very start.

Upon hearing from the production team that Lee Seo-jin was running late, Kim Gwang-gyu exclaimed, "Is the manager late?" The duo then headed to pick up Do Kyung-soo, but were delayed another 15 minutes. Do Kyung-soo sternly stated, "This won't do. I don't like it when people don't keep their time commitments," raising the tension. However, upon the car's arrival, he greeted them with a bright smile, lightening the mood.

The highlight of the broadcast was the encounter with Jo Jung-suk. When Lee Seo-jin visited Jo Jung-suk's YouTube filming set, he exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that Jo Jung-suk?" Jo Jung-suk playfully retorted, "I'm Jo-jeom-seok. I have a mole under my eye," turning the set into a laughter riot. Notably, Jo Jung-suk delivered a sharp remark to the tardy manager Lee Seo-jin, saying, "Timekeeping is important in this industry."

Unfazed, Lee Seo-jin responded, "Want to try having me as your manager?" To which Jo Jung-suk wittily replied, "I'm Jeom-seok, so I'll ask Jung-seok hyung," eliciting further laughter.

As the anticipation built for their potential collaboration, the preview at the end of the broadcast showed Jo Jung-suk reappearing and shouting, "This is the beginning of misfortune!" This generated explosive reactions from viewers. Furthermore, Jo Jung-suk even took the wheel himself, lamenting, "This natural-looking scene is even more annoying," hinting at a role reversal and heightening the anticipation.

Attention is now focused on how the 'late manager' Lee Seo-jin and Jo Jung-suk will interact, given the importance of punctuality in the entertainment industry.
