Lim Il-gyu will play Oh Jae-il, an old hometown friend of the lead character played by Jung Jae-young. Despite their graduating from the same university, Lim Il-gyu's character works in sales rather than development. His attitude regarding his skill in acquiring new clients is also of much annoyance to the character played by Moon So-ri, who works in human resources. Lim Il-gyu's most recent projects were "The Running Mates: Human Rights" and "Psychopath Diary" both from 2019.

Jung Sung-hoon-I will play Yoon Gi-joon, who leads the product planning team. Though he will have interactions with all the leads, Jung Sung-hoon-I will most directly interact with the character played by Kim Ga-eun, who works in the same department. The last drama from Jung Sung-hoon-I was "The Goddess of Revenge" which ended earlier this year. He will also appear in "On the Edge" which is expected to appear in movie theaters some time this year.
