Business as Usual: Sung Seung-ha and Chae Jong-hyeok lead W-STORY’s latest BL adaptation

W-STORY’s upcoming BL drama Business as Usual brings a fresh take on romance, reuniting two former lovers in an unexpected workplace encounter. Adapted from Moscareto (모스카레토)’s popular web novel Eul’s Love (을의 연애), the drama follows Kim Min-jun, a 30-year-old office worker.

Kim Min-jun is stuck in the monotony of corporate life. Just as he begins questioning his direction, his ex-boyfriend Jin Hwan, whom he hasn’t seen in a decade, suddenly joins his office as a new colleague. While Jin Hwan remains as confident and charismatic as ever, Min-jun struggles with the feeling that his life has stalled since their breakup.

Despite his efforts to maintain a professional boundary, unresolved emotions and lingering misunderstandings from their past relationship resurface, leading to an intense and complex reunion. Business as Usual blends nostalgia, workplace dynamics, and a second-chance romance.

Newcomers Sung Seung-ha and Chae Jong-hyeok take on the lead roles as Jin Hwan and Min-jun, respectively. Joining them is Lee Yoon-ki, who plays Jin-soo, an intern at a publishing company navigating his own challenges in the workplace. Marking his first acting role under F&F Entertainment, Lee Yoon-ki is set to embark on his acting career.
