The upcoming JTBC family drama Romance in the House dropped the second teaser. 

Romance in the House is a melodrama where the father, who was cut off by his family 11 years ago due to his multiple business venture failures, returns as the owner of their building. He tries to win back his family, who still harbor resentment towards him. 

The teaser is filled with the mystery of Byun Moo Jin, who turned peaceful Yongdong-dong upside down. Post eleven years, Moo Jin, who put his household in a desperate situation due to his multiple business failures, has returned as the new landlord of the villa where his ex-family lives.

Moreover, Ae Yeon, who thought Moo Jin was living off his older sister until last year, is shocked to learn that he became a nouveau riche and purchased the villa in full cash. Rumors about Moo Jin among the residents of the villa have grown rampant. Residents who think Moo Jin had so many failures in business do not believe he earned money through business and are betting on what made him filthy rich.

In particular, writer and No. 202 resident Lee Jung Hyuk (Kim Do Hyun), who wants to be called "Sherlock of Web Novels", seems to sense something fishy about Moo Jin. 

And it's not just one or two strange things about him. Hyun Jae, Moo Jin's son who welcomes his return to the family, discovers a suspicious bag in his closet, and Choi Dong Jin (Kim Gi Cheon), an old man who lives in the basement, contemplates upon seeing Moo Jin, saying, "I saw him that day, the new homeowner." 

Moreover, a strange tattoo on Moo Jin's shoulder makes him appear even more suspicious, raising curiosity about what he has been up to that led to his enormous wealth. 

Romance in the House will premiere on August 10. More news about the K-drama's global OTT service is yet to come. Watch the teaser here
