With the tvN drama 'Off to Work Tomorrow!', Park has captivated not only domestic audiences but also global viewers, and attention is now focused on whether she can rise in the voting rankings.

As of July 3 at 2:38 p.m., Kim Hye-yoon is running in overwhelming first place in the Female Acting Award voting with 2,147 votes (56.6%). She is followed by Hwang Jung-eum (395 votes), Lee Se-young (328 votes), Ahn Eun-jin (198 votes), and Park Min-young (178 votes) in the top tier, while Park Ji-hyun is currently ranked 16th with 5 votes (0.1%). Although it is still early in the voting and fan support has yet to fully mobilize, Park has left a strong impression with her recent performance in the drama, drawing keen attention to potential future ranking changes.

In 'Off to Work Tomorrow!', Park Ji-hyun plays Cha Ji-yoon, a seventh-year office worker, earning praise for her realistic acting and delicate emotional range. In the drama, after coming to terms with a breakup with her first love, Cha Ji-yoon grows significantly through the sincere support and consideration of her boss Kang Si-woo (played by Seo In-guk). As the two trust and rely on each other while developing a new romance, viewer immersion continues to deepen.

'Off to Work Tomorrow!' has recorded stable viewership ratings from its first broadcast and broke its own highest ratings in the Seoul metropolitan area by its fourth episode. Notably, it ranked first across all channels in its time slot for the 2049 demographic for two consecutive weeks, proving its buzzworthiness.

The domestic popularity extends overseas as well. According to FlixPatrol, it ranked third in the weekly non-English-speaking category on Amazon Prime Video and also placed in the TOP 4 in the TV Shows category. It maintained first place in Thailand and Indonesia, and entered the TOP 10 in 33 countries including the United States, Japan, Germany, and Brazil, continuing its global run.

The drama also stands out in buzzworthiness metrics. According to Good Data Corporation's Fundex for the fourth week of June, it ranked third in TV drama buzzworthiness, and Park Ji-hyun ranked sixth among drama cast members in buzzworthiness, drawing attention alongside the work itself.

Although Park Ji-hyun is currently outside the middle tier of the Netizen Awards rankings, attention is focused on whether the drama's upward momentum combined with fans' support could enable her to make a significant leap in the rankings.
