'Seojin's' recorded the highest viewership rating of 14.5% while providing enjoyment as the employees adapted to running a restaurant.

According to Nielsen Korea, a viewership rating research company, on the 4th, the viewership ratings for the second episode of tvN's 'Seojin', which aired on the 3rd, rose from last week and broke its own record.

It exceeded the average of 11.1% and a maximum of 14.5% for households in the metropolitan area, and an average of 9.3% and a maximum of 12.2% for households nationwide. tvN's target audience rating for men and women in their 20s and 49s was 5.9% in the metropolitan area, with a high of 7.6%, a national average of 5.2%, and a high of 6.5%, ranking first in the same time slot on all channels, including terrestrial channels, in both the metropolitan area and nationwide.

On this day's broadcast, the story of the second day of business was told, a hectic day due to the influx of customers. In particular, in a situation where manpower was needed, a new intern, Choi Woo-sik, appeared like a ray of light and was immediately put in charge of dishwashing, creating a salty feeling.

Previously, on the first day of ‘Seojin’s’ opening, the second customer came in three hours. 'Seojin's', which does not sell alcohol, provided staff wine instead of soju to customers looking for Korean soju, and as dinner time was approaching, they served tteokbokki and fried food in plenty to convey their K-human spirit. The first business ended with the third customer ordering ramen.

After arriving at the hotel, CEO Lee Seo-jin prepared a warm meal with Korean side dishes and leftover rice for kimbap while the employees were taking a break. In addition, Seojin Lee was worried because the customers seemed unfamiliar with snack food. When director Jeong Yu-mi suggested Jeyuk Gimbap, she got excited and added potato hot dogs as a new menu item, but suddenly closed her eyes due to drowsiness and burst out laughing.

On the second day of business, the sight of Bacalar, crowded with people for the weekend, raised expectations. Manager Park Seo-joon made tteokbokki and hot dogs, intern V, who discovered his talent for cooking rice the day before opening, did not cook rice for kimbap, Lee Seo-jin prepared the remaining ingredients, and Jeong Yu-mi focused on business preparations by preparing the new menu, pork kimbap.

We received reservations for 3 teams even before opening, and as soon as we opened the door, the first customers entered, signaling a pleasant day. However, Jeong Yu-mi, who was in charge of kimbap, misunderstood the order and made only one row of bulgogi gimbap, which was supposed to be two rows, and became anxious as even the third customer ordered the kimbap. Jeong Yu-mi was worried about the waiting customers and implemented a strategy of making two rows of kimbap at the same time, but one row exploded, causing regret.

After a brief lull, ‘Seojin’s’ became busy again as customers started arriving one after another. Above all, Lee Seo-jin, who was busy taking orders, was surprised to find five group customers seated later and forgot the receipt, and also forgot to take orders at the group table. Meanwhile, V played his role well by helping Lee Seo-jin, who was having a mental breakdown.

Choi Woo-shik arrived at 'Seo-jin's House' without even having time to check the order form, with conflicting reactions from a happy Lee Seo-jin and a shocked Park Seo-joon in a hall that was quickly approaching full capacity. Choi Woo-sik, who had been running for 20 hours, was trapped in the sink without even having time to put his butt on the chair and fell into dishwashing hell.

Choi Woo-sik's jujugul-mi (?), who joined late, and Park Seo-joon's sweetness attracted attention. Choi Woo-sik spoke softly to the flashy Park Seo-joon and V, saying, “You’re here with a cute hairband, right?” Park Seo-joon reassured them, saying, “I have yours too.” Choi Woo-sik, who felt a strange sense of distance between the two, said, "Do you think they are starting to resemble each other even though we haven't seen each other?" Park Seo-joon responded, “You will be like this tomorrow too.” Choi Woo-sik made everyone laugh by saying, “I can participate too, right?”

The chemistry between Choi Woo-sik and intern V was a lot of fun. V helped Choi Woo-sik find a bowl of kimbap sauce and naturally took over the intern duties. Meanwhile, he said, "And I always think about it," and "My brother is intern Choi. I'm intern Kim. Intern Kim is the top," and even taught him that life is first-come, first-served, making people curious about the story in the future.
