Choi Si Hoon

In his late twenties, Seung Hyun (Moon Ji Yong) has yet to settle into what most would consider an “adult” life. Something of a late bloomer, Seung Hyun has had about as much experience in his professional career as he has in his personal life. Which is to say, he hasn’t had much experience in either. But everything changes when he finally manages to land the internship of his dreams.

Excited to be interning at such a successful advertising company, Seung Hyun’s enthusiasm is curbed almost immediately when he runs into an incredibly handsome, yet unbelievably cold man on his first day of work. Thrown off by his encounter with this frigid adonis, Seung Hyun’s first day is a memorable one, to be sure; but becomes even more so when he realizes the man he ran into was none other than his boss, Kim Jong Chan (Kwon Hyuk).

Unable to shake the feelings that stir inside him as he recalls this first encounter, Seung Hyun tries his best to avoid making the same mistake. But it seems no matter how hard he tries, he can’t escape Jong Chan’s presence. As if drawn together by some unseen force, will either of these men be able to avoid the fate that seems determined to bring them together?

Adapted from the webtoon of the same name by Moscareto, “The New Employee” is a 2022 South Korean romance film directed by Kim Jho Kwang Soo.

The New Employee

As a high school student, San Ha (Viini) never really had any sort of ambitious dream or grand plan for his life. Nothing really piqued his interest and nothing seemed worth his time. But that all changed the day he and his friends decided to start a band. Suddenly inspired to make this new dream come true, San Ha and his friends, Ji Ho (Choi Si Hoon) and Chan (Baek Jin), were determined to make their band successful. However, they soon realized that starting a band was easy, while finding success was not.

After graduating high school, life began to slowly lead the friends in different directions. Though their dreams of becoming a successful band still kept them going, they soon realized that life demanded a bit more of them than it had in high school. Now working as a part-timer, San Ha has no time to focus on anything but the present and he hasn’t heard from his friends in ages. On the brink of giving up all hope, his friends return and with them comes a renewed determination to make their dreams come true.

Now ready to turn dreams into reality, the friends rent a practice space from an inexperienced coffee shop proprietor, who seems to have gotten in way over her head. With a whole new world of obstacles before them, this indomitable set of friends is determined to let nothing come between them and their dreams.
