The first episode, released on the 26th of last month, surpassed 1 million views within just one week and is currently maintaining a steady upward trend, having exceeded 1.4 million views.

Kim Namgil's understated performance as RM Kim Young-jin

This production depicts the daily life of a Relationship Manager (RM) who communicates closely with corporate clients. Moving away from traditional methods that simply list the functions of financial products, it tells the stories of people who help companies grow by sharing their clients' concerns.

Kim Namgil plays the role of Deputy Manager Kim Young-jin, a corporate finance RM, portraying a realistic office worker. Deputy Manager Kim Young-jin's attitude toward clients, combined with Kim Namgil's understated acting, serves to make the unfamiliar field of corporate finance feel more approachable.
