Aug 06, 2024

JTBC’s upcoming weekend drama “Romance in the House” has shared new stills ahead of its premiere!

Penned by Kim Young Yoon of “My Secret Romance” and directed by Kim Da Ye of “My ID Is Gangnam Beauty,” “Romance in the House” is a family drama that tells the story of Byun Moo Jin (Ji Jin Hee), who, after losing all his money due to repeated business failures and being ostracized by his family 11 years ago, returns as the landlord of their building. Kim Ji Soo plays Byun Moo Jin’s ex-wife Geum Ae Yeon, who raises their two children alone while navigating through all kinds of hardships.

Son Naeun stars as Byun Mi Rae, the daughter of Byun Moo Jin and Geum Ae Yeon who fiercely opposes her parents’ potential reconciliation.

In the newly released stills, Byun Moo Jin returns as a wealthy man before his estranged family. 11 years ago, his business failures led to the loss of the family’s entire fortune and the end of his marriage. Now, he is no longer the failure he once was, having amassed enough wealth to buy a three billion won (approximately $2.2 million) house with cash. Driven by an unwavering determination to win back his beloved wife Ae Yeon, Moo Jin endured 11 years of struggle and is now ready to launch all kinds of efforts to rekindle their relationship.

However, Ae Yeon is not easily swayed. Despite Moo Jin’s relentless advances, confessions, and gifts, she remains unmoved. She has built strong defenses to avoid being hurt by him again and has been maintaining a peaceful life that she is determined not to let Moo Jin’s return disrupt.

Adding to the tension is Mi Rae, the devoted daughter who has been the guardian of her family for 11 years. Fiercely protective of her mother, Mi Rae vehemently opposes any reunion with Moo Jin, vividly recalling the hardships her mother endured because of him. Living by the motto “If you do everything, you can achieve something,” Mi Rae is prepared to wield her unwavering determination, tenacity, and sense of responsibility to shield her family and thwart Moo Jin’s attempts to rekindle the past.
