Nine to Six: Overview

The Story

Kang Ji Yi (Park Min Young) is a workaholic who has parked her love life for years to focus on her career. Then she meets the thoughtful, warm-hearted Han Seon Woo (Yook Sungjae), and slowly learns what it means to love. Together they grow in both their careers and their personal lives, which promises a gentle, relatable love story set in the office.

Meet the Main Characters

Kang Ji Yi (Park Min Young): the workaholic.
Her whole life revolves around work, so romance has never had a seat at her table. Watching her soften while staying driven is likely the emotional core of the story.

Han Seon Woo (Yook Sungjae): the warm heart.
He’s described as thoughtful and warm-hearted, the kind of person who changes someone’s outlook just by being kind. He’s the counterweight to Ji Yi’s intensity.

Park Hyun Tae (Go Soo): the new division head.
He’s newly dispatched to Chronic Motors and judges staff by ability and results, yet he also has a keen eye for hidden talent. The new stills show him working even on an airplane, buried in documents on his tablet. In other shots, his deep gaze and calm manner hint at a cool-headed personality behind a gentle exterior. It’s a layered role, and a classic Go Soo mix of poise and mystery.

Why You Should Watch

• A rare romance from Go Soo. His last romance drama was 15 years ago, so this is a special return.
• Relatable workplace themes. Ambition, burnout and finding love between deadlines.
• A strong trio. Park Min Young and Yook Sungjae lead, with a veteran star adding gravitas.
