MBC unveiled a brand new poster and teaser for Lee Jong-suk starrer Big Mouth. The new poster highlights Lee Jong-suk’s intense gaze as the camera focuses on his battered expressions. In another poster, he marches on as he is cheered on by his prison inmates.

MBC also released a new teaser video for the show. The newly released teaser shows two very different sides of Park Chang-ho, Lee Jong-suk's character.

In the first instance, he seems like a clumsy lawyer who gets nagged by his wife Go Mi-ho, played by Girls’ Generation’s YoonA. He is treated like a pushover by his clients. One of them complains:

“He has no skills, and he’s all mouth.”

A criminal case goes awry and he lands up in a prison, where life turns chaotically bad for him. In prison, he gets into fights with other inmates and things go south for him.

Things change when he resolves to fortify himself and grow brave after someone threatens him and his family. He aims a gun at someone and says in a chilly voice that he won't allow himself to be taken advantage of again.

“In order to survive, you need to be the real thing. I’m going to start hunting. I’m going to do it my way according to the ‘Big Mouse’ law. From now on, I’m the real Big Mouse."

He also teams up with a certain Jerry, played by actor Kwak Dong-yeon, piquing fans' curiosity about their friendship.
