Another teaser has dropped for ENA’s upcoming fantasy comedy Unlock the Boss, which stars the eager but hapless Chae Jong-hyeop (Love All Play) alongside AI-like secretary Seo Eun-soo (Missing: The Other Side) and tech CEO Park Sung-woong (Snowdrop).

Havoc and hijinks are a plenty when your boss somehow becomes a smartphone, and the story follows our trio as they try to solve the mystery of what happened – all the while keeping the tech company running while the boss remains indisposed.

The latest teaser begins with CEO Kim Sun-joo (Park Sung-woong) driving while on speaker phone as he sweetly apologizes to his daughter that he’s running late. Sadly, though, he doesn’t make it home because he’s somehow zapped into his cellphone and the subsequent text screens read: “The genius CEO who disappeared is trapped inside a smartphone?”

We then cut to our jobless hero Park In-sung (Chae Jong-hyeop) gaining possession of the cellphone in question and he’s shocked when he hears Sun-joo’s relieved voice through the phone: “I see that you have recharged me.” Quickly pulling up his profile, Sun-joo explains who he is and asks In-sung for help – offering 100 million won in repayment.

In the middle of their conversation, In-sung hilariously starts singing to cover-up when his parents enter the room and Sun-joo helps by playing the music on the phone. Incidentally, the song is Betrayal of the Rose by Uhm Jung-hwa (Our Blues), and In-sung’s parents look so sad thinking their son is going through a hard time.

Ultimately, our hero decides to help Sun-joo and the following text screens announce the beginning of their hybrid work collaboration. Suiting up as acting CEO, In-sung meets with Sun-joo’s business colleagues and Sun-joo explains: “We need to know the truth in order to figure out how this happened to me.”

In the sequence, we see that secretary Jung Se-yeon (Seo Eun-soo) seems to be investigating on her end as well. But our hero runs into a problem when In-sung accidentally drops the phone in water and worries that Sun-joo might have died from drowning in the toilet. The teaser then closes on a more serious note as Sun-joo shares that there isn’t a lot of time.

Written by Kim Hyung-min (Sweet Home) with directing helmed by PD Lee Chul-ha (Okay! Madam), ENA’s Unlock the Boss premieres December 7 following Love is for Suckers in the Wednesday-Thursday slot.

This looks really funny, I love the concept but it is clear that it is also going to have thriller like elements. Looking forward to watching this one.
