Into the book
Im Si-wan: “The emotions Jang Geu-rae feels are as subtle and complex as 49 and 51.
But perhaps subtle and complex emotions are the ones that are more likely to exist between people.”

“It was clumsy and lacking, but I still don’t want to forget it.
“Because back then, I had feelings that I can never express now.”
---From "Volume 1 Was Still Excellent"

Kim Dae-myung: “As I get older, I start to think about who I am in the play.
Sometimes it was Jang Geu-rae, and sometimes it was Manager Kim.
I feel like my perspective on "Misaeng" changes depending on my current appearance.
---From "A Letter from Volume 2, 8 Years Later"

Kim Won-seok: “It would be an unhealthy solidarity to form a group that gives the impression that we are all one and alienate someone.
This is also the reason why Jang Geu-rae felt so lonely in the beginning of his internship.
So I like a looser alliance where we can support each other but don't demand too many restrictions, where we're always open to those who are compatible, but can always let go if we're not compatible."
---From "Volume 2 Director Interview"

Jeong Yun-jeong “A complete sense of alienation, deprivation, and anxiety, a sense of self-esteem that is scattered as you enter a world where you can never belong.
There is a gray feeling that those things create.
I put that on Jang Geu-rae.
Only then did Jang Geu-rae start moving.
“I finally became someone I could know.”

“In creating a three-dimensional character, the director and I both agree on finding the gap between the character’s feelings and actions and characterizing the true feelings hidden within it.
It's about expressing honest feelings that people usually try to hide.
“I think those things create a three-dimensional feel to the character and have a big impact on building the character.”
---From the author's note in Volume 3

Yeah, it's not that I didn't try hard, but I think it's because I didn't try hard enough.
I came out into the world because I didn't work hard.
“I was just abandoned because I didn’t work hard enough.”
---From "First Country S#60"

Yeah, I called her “our kid…”
---From "Second Country S#67"

Common sense: “People with strong motivation to achieve are like tornadoes, causing trouble or harm to those around them.
But the center is quiet.
“Take center stage.”
---From "Third Country S#59"

Deputy Director Seon: “I often mistakenly believe that the past is holding me back, but when I think about it, I often find myself holding onto the past.”
---From "The Fourth Country S#37"

Common sense: “Since you’re already here, try to hold out somehow.”
To persevere is to win.
To endure is to somehow move forward to complete life.
You may not know this, but there is a saying in Baduk.
Misaeng, Wansaeng.
We are all still in the early stages.”
---From "The Fourth Country S#69"

Yeah, “Yeah… everyone has their own version of Baduk…”
---From "Sixth Country S#83"

Teacher: “If you want to achieve something, build up your physical strength first.
If you want to win, first build a body that can withstand enough hardship.
“Mental strength is nothing more than a relief without the protection of physical strength.”
---From "The 8th Country S#1"

Dong-sik: “People call us the Necktie Brigade or the idiots… I could live my life however I want, and society or the company wouldn’t care, but this is who I am right now.”
---From "10th Country S#81"

Yes, “what seems like the whole thing, if you step out a little, you will see that it is only a small part of it.”
---From "14th Country S#1"

Common sense “Your life can change depending on who you meet in life.
“If you chase flies, you’ll end up hanging around the toilet, but if you chase bees, you’ll end up strolling through flower fields.”
---From "17th Country S#28"

Common sense: “Even if it doesn’t seem like it will work out, see it through to the end.”
As we live, there are many things we begin even though we know the end.”
---From "Country 19 S#77"

Publisher's Review
A life drama becomes a life book again.
The drama [Misaeng], which has been loved by countless people for nearly 10 years, has been published!
A story that still holds true for us who struggle namelessly in an uncertain world.

* Seoul International Drama Awards Best Drama Award

* Drama official channel clip 250 million views

The collection of works from the drama [Misaeng], which became a sensation that year and vividly portrayed the struggles we endured each day at our respective workplaces, has been published.
If an original work has received a good response, the standards for judging it when it is transferred to another medium tend to become stricter.
However, the drama [Misaeng] took what it had from the original work and wove the story in a new and rich way, which aroused the enthusiasm of many people.
Nearly ten years have passed since the drama aired, but we still need leaders like Oh Sang-sik and colleagues like Kim Dong-sik, and the lives of office workers are still tough.
For these reasons, people still cherish [Misaeng] as their life drama.
This story, which leaves us with meaning no matter how many times we revisit it, illuminates the source of life and firmly maintains its center without being distracted by things that can easily and quickly shine.
[Misaeng] boldly excluded melodrama, which is still used as an essential element in dramas, and did not contain the vain hopes that are often used to develop the narrative.
However, when you feel trapped in a suffocating life with no exit, the only thing that gives you comfort is that the small strength that allows you to survive is ultimately 'people'.

[Misaeng], a world history life drama collection that touches the heart and lingers in people's hearts for a long time, is compiled into a book. It includes scenes drawn by illustrator Son Eun-kyung exclusively for the previous script and collection, as well as stories about the making of the drama, still cuts, and commentary.
In particular, the difficult process of maintaining the original message and core episodes while breaking down the original structure and rewriting it as a new dramatic narrative is closely captured in the 'Author's Note'.
Author Jeong Yun-jeong's honest and unadorned writing process, which runs for 30 pages, will be a great inspiration not only to drama lovers but also to those who compose content and write.
In addition, each volume includes a drama story that encompasses the past and present of actors Im Si-wan, Kim Dae-myung, and Lee Sung-min, who were part of Sales Team 3 in the drama, and a four-hour interview with director Kim Won-seok, who directed record-breaking works such as [Signal] and [My Mister].


The collection of life dramas aims to capture the unique atmosphere and images of the dramas not only in the appendix but also in the material that approaches externally.
[Misaeng] The covers of volumes 1-3 express the process of going from "Misaeng to Wansaeng" with each line intertwined to form a circle.
Additionally, the One International space layout, which uses only ink on white paper with a vivid texture, captures the mood of the One International office, which is the background of the play, and the photo of the Sales Team 3 in the center of the bookcase cover adds to the cheerfulness.
