Jo Woo-jin plays Soon-tae, the number 2 of Sikkupa who wants to become the boss of a popular restaurant, and Jung Kyung-ho plays Kang-pyo, a candidate for the next boss who has been released from prison after dealing with a traitor in the organization.

Park Ji-hwan portrays Pan-ho, the only boss candidate who genuinely wants to become the boss, and Lee Kyu-hyung plays Tae-gyu, Soon-tae's right-hand man who has worked as a deliveryman at a Chinese restaurant for 10 years. In addition, Oh Dal-soo, Hwang Woo-seul-hye, and Jung Yoo-jin also appear.

Jo Woo-jin said, "It's been a while since I've done a comedy, so I'm excited but also worried," adding, "I already have great chemistry with my fellow actors, so I expect good synergy." Jung Kyung-ho said, "This role has a different charm from the characters I've shown so far," and vowed, "I will do my best."
