Ji Jin HeeKim Jee SooSon Na EunChoi Min Ho, and Yoon San Ha's K-drama, Melo House, is confirmed to premiere on August 10, after the conclusion of Miss Night and Day. 

JTBC's Melo House is a bloody family melodrama where the father, who was abandoned 11 years ago by his family, returns as the owner of their building. The show approaches the family dynamic differently, depicting relationships that are as sincere and poignant.  

Ji Jin Hee plays Byun Moo Jin, who returns as the owner of the building where his family lives after being cut off by them following his business failure. He returns after 11 years to win back his beloved ex-wife Geum Ae Yeon (Kim Jee Soo). With Gatsby-level wealth, Moo Jin shows up wherever Ae Yeon is and showers her with praise.

Kim Jee Soo plays Geum Ae Yeon, a superwoman who, after divorcing Ji Jin Hee, has gone through countless hardships, and raised her children while living in a small room of a gukbap restaurant. She was able to endure those times thanks to her daughter, Byun Mi Rae (Son Na Eun), who had to mature early. When her daughter said, "I'll grow up fast and become your Wonder Woman," it made Geum Ae Yeon feel deeply sorry and gave her strength. Now working as a food sampler at a supermarket, Ae Yeon supports her family both inside and out. Just as her life stabilizes, her ex-husband Ji Jin Hee reappears.

Son Na Eun plays Byun Mi Rae. When her family lost their store and home, due to her father's business failure, she resolved to do anything to restore her family's normalcy. Always cherishing her mother, her Wonder Woman, she decided it was her turn to become her mother's Wonder Woman. She now works as a food team MD at a supermarket to support her family. When her father returns after 11 years, Son Na Eun plans to vividly remind Moo Jin how foolish and unrealistic his dream of family reunion is.

Choi Min Ho plays Nam Tae Pyung, a former national team taekwondo instructor and a security guard at a supermarket. Actually, he hides his identity as the son of J Plus Mart's president, considers the chaebol status to be his father's standing and manages his own affairs well. However, his secret identity is discovered by Son Na Eun.

Yoon San Ha plays Byun Hyun Jae, the only one who welcomes the return of Byun Moo Jin. At 23, Hyun Jae is the troublemaker of the family. Unlike his sister, who is cold towards Moo Jin, Hyun Jae is all for their parents' reunion.

 

XdBWwO_2f.png

 

The production team said, "Melo House explores the complex relationships between family [members] who sometimes love, sometimes resent, and sometimes feel sorry and pitiful [towards each other]. And at times, when they get sick of it all, they just want to live for themselves. It gives a look at family, a relationship that always puts one to the test. We will bring you a drama meant to be enjoyed and empathized with alongside family members on weekend nights."

Melo House will premiere on August 10. More news about the K-drama's global OTT service is yet to come.

“Romance in the House” tells the story of people that feel their lives are incomplete gathering together as a family and dreaming of a complete love. The drama is penned by Kim Young Yoon of “My Secret Romance” and directed by Kim Da Ye of “My ID Is Gangnam Beauty.”

Kim Ji Soo plays Byun Moo Jin’s ex-wife Geum Ae Yeon, a wonder woman who started off living in a small room at a soup restaurant after divorcing Moo Jin and raised her two children while navigating through all kinds of hardships.

Minho portrays the role of Nam Tae Pyeong, a former national taekwondo player who is now a security guard at a large supermarket. Nam Tae Pyeong is actually the son of J Plus Mart’s CEO, but he thinks that having a chaebol father has nothing to do with him and lives his life independently.

20240711154755_romance-in-the-houseee-1.Son Naeun Is Not Ready To Welcome Her Estranged Father Ji Jin Hee In Upcoming Family Drama "Romance In The House"

Jul 11, 2024
by J Lee

JTBC’s upcoming Saturday-Sunday drama “Romance in the House” has unveiled its poster!

“Romance in the House” tells the story of people who feel their lives are incomplete gathering together as a family and dreaming of a complete love. The drama is penned by Kim Young Yoon of “My Secret Romance” and directed by Kim Da Ye of “My ID Is Gangnam Beauty.”

The newly released poster captures Byun Moo Jin (Ji Jin Hee) returning to his family as a building owner, only to find a cold reception from his wife Geum Ae Yeon (Kim Ji Soo) and daughter Byun Mi Rae (Son Naeun). In the image, Byun Moo Jin holds a bouquet of flowers and smirks, apparently showcasing his newfound wealth and anticipating a warm welcome. However, Byun Mi Rae stands on the other side of the wall, arms crossed with a dissatisfied expression, clearly not ready to welcome her father back.

romance-in-the-houseee.jpeg

 

This tense family dynamic stems from Moo Jin’s past greedy pursuits of money and a series of failed business attempts, which even resulted in the loss of their hard-earned restaurant. After their father left, Ae Yeon and Mi Rae relied on each other for support, becoming each other’s pillars of strength.

However, their peaceful lives are disrupted upon Moo Jin’s unexpected return. His comeback triggers a series of events that stir up the neighborhood gossip. Now labeled as “Mr. Byun’s family,” Ae Yeon and Mi Rae find themselves embroiled in the gossip, which makes it even harder for them to reconcile with their alienated father and husband.

While Mi Rae is determined to protect her mother from being drawn back into her ex-husband’s life, it remains to be seen whether the family can resolve their past and finally come together.

“Romance in the House” is set to premiere on August 10 at 10:30 p.m. KST as the follow-up to “Miss Night and Day.”

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

20240718024740_romance-in-the-house-3.jpJi Jin Hee Tries To Win Back Kim Ji Soo While Son Naeun Is Determined To Stop Him In Upcoming Drama "Romance In The House"

Jul 18, 2024
by J Lee

JTBC’s upcoming weekend drama “Romance in the House” has released its main poster!

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 lost all his money due to continued business failures and was ostracized from his family 11 years ago. The remaining family members’ lives take a turn as he reappears in front of them after obtaining a sudden fortune.

The newly released poster, intriguingly rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise, vividly captures the familial love triangle. Byun Moo Jin and his daughter Byun Mi Rae (Son Naeun) are depicted in a tense standoff over their ex-wife and mother Geum Ae Yeon (Kim Ji Soo), each gripping Ae Yeon’s arm tightly. Meanwhile, Ae Yeon’s peaceful smile raises curiosity about her inner thoughts amidst the family’s chaotic dynamics.

Moo Jin’s efforts to win back Ae Yeon include buying a building where she and Mi Rae live, even moving into the unit right upstairs from their home. However, Mi Rae, having witnessed her mother’s struggles to rebuild their lives after Moo Jin’s past mistakes, is determined to protect Ae Yeon from him. She is resolute in maintaining their hard-earned peace and demonstrating to Moo Jin that they can be happy and strong on their own.

The production team commented, “We suggest you watch ‘Romance in the House’ for a fresh take on the typical love triangle narrative where two men are fighting for one woman.” They added, “Please stay tuned to this dopamine-inducing family drama and find out whether the family will be reunited, just as Moo Jin hopes, or if they will fail to do so, just as Mi Rae hopes.”

“Romance in the House” is set to premiere on August 10 at 10:30 p.m. KST as the follow-up to “Miss Night and Day.”

Ji Jin Hee Tries To Seduce His Ex-Wife Kim Ji Soo In New Drama "Romance In The House"

Jul 19, 2024
by S Kim

JTBC’s upcoming drama “Romance in The House” has unveiled new stills featuring Ji Jin Hee and Kim Ji Soo!

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” depicts the journey of individuals who were once estranged but strive to reunite as a family, recognizing the profound effort, introspection, and tears required. Ji Jin Hee stars as Byun Moo Jin, who was divorced by his wife Geum Ae Yeon 11 years ago when his business collapsed, while Kim Ji Soo plays Byun Moo Jin’s ex-wife Geum Ae Yeon, who raises her two children alone while navigating through all kinds of hardships.

The newly released stills capture Moo Jin, who appears again in front of Ae Yeon after he became a billionaire, trying his best to reunite with his family. Buying the villa where Ae Yeon lives and moving into the house above hers is just the beginning. He appears wherever Ae Yeon goes and does not hesitate to throw flirty lines such as, “You are pretty as usual.”

 

romance-in-the-house_3502d9.jpg

 

However, Ae Yeon does not blink an eye no matter how many times Moo Jin appears in front of her trying to show his sincerity and showering her with gifts. Having been deceived once by Moo Jin, who went all in for his business, no matter how sweetly he confesses, it is just meaningless sweet talk for Ae Yeon.

The production team remarked, “Moo Jin and Ae Yeon, who reunite for the first time in 11 years after seeing each other’s worst side and getting a divorce, will showcase an unexpected romance that is heart-fluttering rather than musty. Please stay tuned to see whether the two will ever be able to reunite and show lots of interest for this middle-aged [couple’s] romance, which is cuter, more lovely, and more exciting than that of the MZ generation (Millennials and Generation Z).”

Son Naeun infused Mi Rae’s steadfast determination as the family’s pillar with her vibrant energy, bringing the character to life. As the devoted eldest daughter, she portrays a tender mother-daughter bond with Ae Yeon but vehemently opposes any reconciliation with Moo Jin, intensifying the family drama.

Ji Jin-hee is newly landlord of Romance in the House

by tccolb

 

A new teaser is out for JTBC’s upcoming Romance in the House (previously Family x Melo), with the once hapless Ji Jin-hee (D.P. 2) proving that he must have been good-for-something after all, now that he’s returned with newfound success to win back his family and wife Kim Ji-soo (High Class).

Opening with Geum Ae-yeon (Kim Ji-soo) taking in the shocking news, we read in the animated captions that her, “Nouveau-riche ex-husband has returned as the building owner.” And he bought the villa with 100% cash! But Ae-yeon finds all this hard to believe when the accursed Byun Mu-jin (Ji Jin-hee) was supposedly still living at his older sister’s house, at least until last year.

 

 

As the Bond-esque music ramps up in the background, the rumors and bets start flying among the building tenants, because how exactly did Mu-jin come by his sudden wealth? As unit 202’s Kim Do-hyun (Queen of Tears) puts it – and the captions agree – that something smells fishy. Although Mu-jin meets with the residents to explain why he bought the villa, it’s not enough to reassure suspicions.

Adding to the mystery, son Yoon San-ha (Crazy Love) finds something odd in Mu-jin’s closet while daughter Sohn Na-eun (Agency) fumes, and basement tenant Kim Ki-chun (Chicken Nugget) cryptically reveals that, “I saw the new building owner, that day.” Sensing danger, we also see Taekwondo instructor (and local mart security guard + secret chaebol) Min-ho (The Fabulous) come to Ae-yeon’s rescue.

But our frustrated hero feels wrongly accused, defending that, “They don’t even know the extent of what I went through in order to get to this place!” In the sequence, we see what must be more red herrings, with a glimpse of Mu-jin’s tattooed arm and then a sequin-clad Mu-jin fighting in a club. The teaser then ends with Ae-yeon demanding to know Mu-jin’s real identity.

Directed by PD Kim Da-ye with scripts by Kim Young-yoon, JTBC’s Romance in the House will be following Miss Night and Day in the weekend slot, premiering on August 10.

JTBC's new weekend drama Romance in the House has released stills of Byun Moo Jin (Ji Jin Hee) and Geum Ae Yeon (Kim Jee Soo). It remains to be seen whether these two, whose relationship shattered 11 years ago, can reunite.

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. 

Moo Jin (Ji Jin Hee) and Ae Yeon (Kim Jee Soo) are divorced. 11 years ago, Moo Jin, who had repeatedly failed in business, ended up losing everything, including their house and store, leading Ae Yeon to file for divorce. After walking their separate paths, the two meet again after 11 years. Unlike in the past, Moo Jin is now an immensely wealthy man. He comes before Ae Yeon to reclaim his position as a husband and father.

Moo Jin, for whom Ae Yeon is the one and only woman in his life, is determined to do everything in his power to reunite the family. Buying the villa where she lives and moving into the apartment above her is just the beginning. He strives to make a good impression in the neighborhood with his wealth, appears wherever Ae Yeon is, and showers her with praise like "You look beautiful today too?"

However, no matter how much Moo Jin tries, Ae Yeon remains indifferent. Having been fooled by him in the past, no sweet words convince her. The stills also show Ae Yeon wearing a stern expression, firmly rejecting Moo Jin.

Whether Ae Yeon's stubbornness will eventually break down in the face of Moo Jin's relentless efforts is anticipated to be a key point of interest in Romance in the House.

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

Ji Jin Hee And ASTRO's Sanha Have The Perfect Father-Son Relationship In "Romance In The House"

Jul 24, 2024

JTBC’s upcoming drama “Romance in the House” has released new stills featuring Ji Jin Hee and ASTRO’s Sanha!

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” depicts the journey of individuals who were once estranged but strive to reunite as a family, recognizing the profound effort, introspection, and tears required. Ji Jin Hee stars as Byun Moo Jin, who was divorced by his wife 11 years ago when his business collapsed, while Kim Ji Soo plays Byun Moo Jin’s ex-wife Geum Ae Yeon, who raised her two children alone while navigating through all kinds of hardships.

The newly released stills highlight the strong bond between Byun Moo Jin and Byun Hyun Jae (Sanha). Unlike Ae Yeon and Mi Rae (Son Naeun), who are always on edge with crossed arms and wary glances at the sight of Moo Jin, Hyun Jae beams with a joyful smile and stays close to his father. He even displays an endearing puppy-like charm, reminiscent of a large dog wagging its tail in excitement.

There is also a striking contrast to Moo Jin’s past, when his business troubles caused family turmoil. Now a successful property owner, Moo Jin generously hands over his credit card to his son, and Hyun Jae looks at him with admiration and respect.

The only one fully supporting their family’s reunion, Hyun Jae will act as Moo Jin’s right-hand man, working to bring his parents back together. Moo Jin’s sudden appearances wherever Ae Yeon is can be attributed to his loyal son, Hyun Jae, who acts as a secret informant.

However, Hyun Jae’s eagerness to welcome Moo Jin has its own twist. While Moo Jin’s rise to wealth is shrouded in mystery, Hyun Jae also has his own hidden motives. Unlike Mi Rae, who will create intense drama with Moo Jin with her mother in between, Hyun Jae will chart his own course and show a charming resemblance to his father. Watching these contrasting dynamics within the family will add an engaging layer to the story.

The production team commented, “In contrast to the intense triangle of Moo Jin aiming to reunite the family, Mi Rae resisting, and Ae Yeon finding herself in the middle, Moo Jin and Hyun Jae will come together with a shared goal of family reunification, showcasing the strength of their father-son alliance. Please look forward to their dynamic, which will add energy and humor to the show.”

“Romance in the House” is set to premiere on August 10 at 10:30 p.m. KST, following the conclusion of “Miss Night and Day.”
