Veteran actors Lee Seo-jin and Kim Gwang-gyu are set to surprise viewers as one-day managers in the upcoming SBS variety show, 'My Manager is Too Grumpy - Secretary Jin' (tentative title).

A recently released teaser video showcases the duo accompanying comedian Lee Soo-ji as her managers for a day. In one notable scene, Lee Seo-jin is seen helping Lee Soo-ji with her food inside a van. When the soup spills, he initially appears flustered but quickly dives in to eat it, reminiscent of his past 'servant master' image.

Fans reacted humorously to Lee Seo-jin's unexpected helpfulness, contrasting it with his usual 'grumpy' persona on variety shows. Comments like 'This is the real taste of soup' and 'Was he threatened?' flooded the internet, with many recalling his dedicated role in the 'Grandpas Over Flowers' series.

The show aims to break away from traditional talk shows, offering a real road-show format where the managers closely follow a celebrity's day, revealing their unvarnished selves and inner thoughts, promising a blend of laughter and heartwarming moments.

Lee Seo-jin debuted in the acting scene in 1999 with the drama 'Trap of Youth'. He has garnered significant popularity through various variety shows, known for his distinctively blunt yet honest charm. He is also recognized for his excellent fashion sense and neat image.
