A Drama That Sheds Light on Unseen Labor Issues
The Plot Unveiled
In the captivating MBC Friday-Saturday drama, ‘No Employee No Jin’ unfolds the story of Moo-jin, played by Jung Kyung-ho, a labor attorney who has the unique ability to see ghosts. The drama pulls us into the journey where Moo-jin helps the ghosts of workers who met unjust deaths.
Unveiling Family Ties
Episode 5, which airs on October 13th, brings Moo-jin face-to-face with labor issues concerning his family. The recently released stills depict Moo-jin following his mother, Yang Eun-ja, portrayed by Jeon Guk-hyang, on her weekend outings.
Yang Eun-ja’s mysterious destination turns out to be a university campus, where people her age are dressed in business attire, preparing to take a highly unusual test—the ‘Liberal Arts Exam.’ Despite being irrelevant to their cleaning duties, these cleaners, inclusive of Moo-jin’s mother, are forced to take this exam.

Seeing his mother struggle with an exam directly unrelated to her job, Moo-jin is filled with shock and indignation. This poignant moment is designed to resonate with viewers, who are encouraged to sympathize with the laborers’ plight.
A Realistic Depiction
Actress Kang Ae-shim makes a heart-wrenching appearance as Kim Young-sook, a ghost of a cleaner. Meanwhile, Ahn Nae-sang as Oh Jang-geun, contributes to bringing even more depth and realism to the life and struggles of laborers.
According to the production team, “Episode 5 confronts Moo-jin with ‘family matters,’ enhancing the immersive experience for the audience, while we hope that many viewers may resonate with the stories of the cleaning workers.”
The much-anticipated Episode 5 of ‘No Employee No Jin’ is scheduled to air at 9:50 PM on October 13th.
