Lee Seo-jin, Choi Woo-sik, who keeps V in check, is in crisis from the first day of 'Seojin's'

While Choi Woo-sik revealed his sense of crisis to V, Lee Seo-jin's sensitivity exploded at the opening of his first restaurant.

The tvN entertainment show 'Seojin's', which first aired on the 24th, featured CEO Lee Seo-jin, director Jung Yu-mi, manager Park Seo-joon, experienced intern Choi Woo-sik, and new intern BTS V who opened a restaurant in Mexico.

On this day, the members held their first pre-meeting ahead of the restaurant opening. Seojin Lee, who became president after 6 years, said with a dimpled smile, “This day is coming.”

However, when Lee Seo-jin heard that the menu was fake, he complained, "I suddenly lost interest. The menu is too difficult," and producer Na Young-seok announced that he had selected BTS's V as the new employee.

In 'Seojin's', Jung Yu-mi was promoted to director, and Park Seo-joon was promoted to manager and chef. Regarding the reason for promoting Jeong Yu-mi to director, Lee Seo-jin explained, "She is a registered director. Now she takes all responsibility. Something went wrong and she was put in shackles."

Choi Woo-sik failed to get promoted even during his 'Yoon Stay' career. Lee Seo-jin even declared that Choi Woo-sik could be lower in rank than V because he joined late due to schedule. Choi Woo-sik was disappointed and said, “There’s really no affection here.”

Afterwards, the members met with V and had a full gathering. V said, “I took cooking lessons and Spanish lessons.” Choi Woo-sik responded by saying, "You shouldn't go out of your way to do something like this. The boss doesn't like that kind of thing."

The members who learned cooking in Korea headed to Bacalar, Mexico. However, the place where the restaurant was located was an empty street, and Lee Seo-jin felt uneasy, saying, “It’s so quiet. Who cares about people doing business?”

Afterwards, the members began preparing for sales. Seojin Lee urged, "Think of it as opening at 6:30 and let's hurry up. If you think like that, things will progress quickly." In response, Jung Yu-mi was aggrieved and said, "We've never relaxed," and Park Seo-joon was embarrassed, saying, "The older brother I knew has become the boss. He's no longer my older brother. This is the first time I've heard a comment like this."

Lee Seo-jin also announced that he would send only the youngest member, V, to work an hour early. When PD Na asked, "Weren't we all equal colleagues?" Lee Seo-jin explained, "If that's the case, what's the point of positions and years of experience? People who have done this much should be treated well." After hearing this, V said, "I'm confused. Is the boss a good person? Is he a bad person?"

On the first day of business, when rain suddenly poured down, Lee Seo-jin became anxious and said, "It's been raining since the first day." The first customers to show up an hour after opening were a father and daughter, who ordered cheese tteokbokki and cheese ramen and enjoyed them. Afterwards, we invited other guests and ate various types of snacks. Lee Seo-jin was satisfied and said, “Business is improving.”

But as soon as the first customers left, the store became quiet again. In response, Lee Seo-jin took out his anger on the production team, saying, "Korean food is a trend. When did it become so crazy? No one is interested. Why did you just raise people's expectations?"

Lee Seo-jin, who eventually convened a staff meeting, said, "Is it okay if we lose customers like this? Customers are supposed to come one after another." When V asked, "How much is your salary?", he was embarrassed and asked, "Are you out of your mind?" In the trailer, it was revealed that the line of customers continued until the seats were full.
