Simply Great

Its a wonderful series worth watching over, Its perfect for the so few date nights that many moms and dad have, it compelling and has a great since a mystery without going to dark and keeps the mood nice and light. The girl is very unique and playful with he main character which to best describe has a bit of mental baggage.

Sometimes lies are necessary ...

I'm kind of surprised at some of the harsh reviews with this series. I found this drama to be so fantastic from start to finish. Not only was it a great story to watch and travel along with, but the actors seem to be perfectly cast, whether being a protagonist or antagonist.
Min Hyun delivers such a great role as Do Ha, somewhat mysterious early on, but eventually opens the character up so we know him completely inside and out at the very end. His counterpart, Sol Hee fits together with him like a perfect puzzle, somewhat mysterious as well, but she too becomes completely transparent to us as things move along. So Hyun matures her into the perfect match for Do Ha, something that didn't seem likely when they first met.
The supporting cast were all great, each adding something in their own special way. You can't help but feel empathy toward several of them, particularly Kang Min and Deuk Chan, each for different reasons. Ji Hoon's character, while you knew he wouldn't win back Sol Hee, you really wanted something good to go his way, which eventually he seemed to be in a happy place at the end. Ji On's role, on the other hand, was the surprise of the series. He did such a great job shaping this character, so when things take a major turn, you can't help but be shocked. I think episode 14 was definitely the pinnacle hour of the entire drama. From that point on, the last two episodes are like a rollercoaster ride, giving us all the answers we needed for a very satisfying ending. The way the final scene ends, it brought us 360 degrees back to where it began in episode 1.
I think what Sol Hee says at the very end of the last episode sums up this series ... "People's hearts are as deep and mysterious as the ocean .... you can't tell what's inside just by saying true or false"

I enjoyed it too much >.<

I did not expect that I would love this drama. At first, I started watching this for fun, and did not have any high expectations, i expected it would be the same cliche drama. But, unexpectedly i enjoyed it too much. It was unbelievable that people are not hyping this drama up, and I would consider this drama as an underrated drama. I am so grateful that i have picked up this despite people reviewed this drama as an average drama. but, this drama is not an average drama for me. I forgot when the last time I enjoy such a drama.

First of all, the plot is very interesting, the main plot and all the side plot is very well-written. and the ml and fl was sooooo cute, it gave me a soft, warm feeling, although there is not that much heart-fluttering moments, despite that i think they are both very cute and innocent? something like that. The story itself is very interesting, i find the story of the liar hunter is very well written, and i loovee how it wrapped nicely for the ending, nowadays it's very hard to find a drama that is very well written in the beginning until the end. So, I really appreciate how the plot progress, it was progressing very neatly. the pacing of the story was not too fast nor too slow and there were almost no unnecessary scenes which I really appreciate. there were no fillers that are annoying nor dragging. if i were to minus some points, maybe the soundtrack is not really impactful nor it was that good. the songs in the drama were also meh, it was fine for me. (but, i reallly like hwang min hyun's ost tho)

Beside that, I really appreciate how well the action scenes were shot eventhough there were little. to be honest, i enjoyed this show too much than I did not even notice how well it was shot and edited. clearly, the cinematography was perfect since i could barely detect sloppy edited scene nor unnecesary shot. and clearly because I was so into this drama as it was really happening in front of me.

Lastly, as you can tell i really enjoyed this drama, maybe a little bit too much. so, give it a try, you might like it :)

*despite i gave to the soundtrack and rewatch value a 7, i would still give this 10/10 cuz well, as i said many times, i like it too much hahaha

A simple but effective drama: a murder, a suspect, and a solid story. On the other hand, we have a woman with a very special ability she can detect lies (which would be really useful for us in real life too lol).

Overall, I thought the story was well developed: from their first meeting on the bus, to him becoming her neighbor, the discovery of his identity, the moment she finds out he’s been accused of murder, and how lost she feels because of it. Then the way the story unfolds you’re genuinely surprised by who actually caused the tragedy, even if it’s a bit predictable. From the very beginning, without knowing the plot, I suspected her friend was the culprit. Still, the story stays really cool.The acting is good overall. Not surprising coming from the actress she always delivers. I didn’t know the actor before, so he was a pleasant discovery.

My Lovely Liar


The Unique Premise: The concept of a "Liar Hunter" is fascinating. It’s not just about the fantasy element, but how Sol-hee uses her power to navigate a world full of deception.

The Chemistry: Kim So-hyun and Hwang Min-hyun delivered a great performance. Their relationship felt organic—moving from guarded strangers to each other's "safe place."

The Mystery Subplot: The tension surrounding the murder case kept the plot moving. It provided a nice contrast to the fluffy, romantic moments.

A Fresh Plot and Solid Actors

As to be expected, Kim So Hyun has picked another great script and delivered another great performance. “My Lovely Liar” stands out in a year of, in my opinion, slim pickings for dramas.

Pros:
• Our leads were just plain excellent. I am a huge KSH fan; the girl just always knocks it out of the park. But this was a new style of character for her. Loved it. Min Hyun, on the other hand, nailed it too. I loved him in “Alchemy of Souls”, and I adored seeing him as a lead. The characters were excellently written and excellently acted.
• A fresh plot that is paced well to keep you wanting more. The mystery kept you guessing till the end, and the romance was dynamic and real. Loved it.
• The romance is adorable. They have the cutest chemistry ever. They look like they just plain love being together. They were unbelievably cute. Not to mention: NO RIDICULOUS BREAKUP. That is always a win.
• Super satisfying ending!!

Cons:
• Overall, except for some exceptions, I felt the supporting cast was pretty weak character wise.
• The first three episodes, in my opinion, are pretty slow and kind of hard to wade through. But I’m glad I did.
• They were together for the last six episodes but we only got two real kisses out of all of those episodes. Would have liked to see their chemistry, which was great, better explored.

Overall, it’s a great watch, one you don’t want to miss. It has romance, mystery, comedy, and more all packed into one show.

SUCH AN UNDERRATED DRAMA!!

Seriously, idk why this drama didn't get more rating, it was really better compared to all the overrated kdramas I have watched recently. And for your information, this will be a drama which I didn't skip a lot of scenes. I loved the connection both the leads shared and how they stood up for each other throughout the story. It was also kind of refreshing to see them being all cute without any push and pull in their relationship (fyi i hate when they do that push and pull kind of thing in a relationship.) Tbh I was hesitating a lot before starting this drama but i really enjoyed from the starting to the end. Moreover, i haven't written a review for a drama for a very long time but this drama is really being underrated and I want many people to watch this one! So if anyone is hesitating like me before starting, pls do watch it... it can be your cup of tea too hahaha

A Fun, Cute, & Easy Watch

She can “hear” people’s lies.
He’s a murder suspect in hiding.
Being neighbors should be interesting…

These 2 are adorable. I love how their initial unease & distrust of each other grows to a deep love built on the trust they’ve earned in one another. 💝

They carry deep wounds {horrible moms, exes drama} so they don’t let anyone fully in. But they start to reveal their pain & secrets to each other. And it’s just so satisfying to watch their love help heal their hearts 😍

Their antics in trying to solve the case made me actual laugh out loud, their pain made my heart hurt, & their devotion to one another made me swoon. 🫠

They’re genuinely good people. They have strong morals & stand their ground to fight for what’s right, even if it means they stand alone (though now that they’ve found each other, neither will ever be fully alone again…) 💕

My only dislike is the delulu SFL & SML. Like, take a hint (L I S T E N when they say N O!), grow up, & get your own life. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Do not miss out on this drama!

This drama made me smile so much. It's a story of healing and love and heartache. It's hilarious and sad and beautiful. I loved it very much. This is one of those dramas I know I will rewatch again, chasing that feeling of watching it for the first time that I will sadly not feel again in quite the same way. But in the words of Winnie the Pooh: "How lucky am I to have had something that makes saying goodbye so hard."

Run, don't walk to watch this drama. I don't think it's for everyone, but if this drama is for you then I know you will love it as much as I did.

"Useless Lies" should have been the Main Title

I binge watched first 6 episodes and it felt really good. The story is unique and the suspense part in the starting episodes made it more interesting and got me hooked. Also the lie detecting scenarios felt really good and funny in the first few episodes. To be precise - "A great Start".

I reason I said "Useless Lies" would be more suitable for the main title is because I felt even thought Female Lead can detect lies the situation or the questions might be inaccurate(If you know..you know). So, I felt week by week the story deteriorated but it was watchable and not boring at all. But it picked up again when the murder mystery came into light.

Their dating era felt surreal to me. But got to admit they have the healthiest relationship ever. I am happy it ended really well. But kudos to the writer and the team of "My Lovely Liar" I have not even a bit expected the plot twist with Deuk Chan.

Coming to the Acting everyone performed really well. But I kinda expected more from them but that's ok, the story made it up for me. Leads did a great job. Lee Si woo(syaon) is a great actress, she portrayed the character really well, can't wait to see her in a main role. And i'm happy for Chi Hoon, he finally acheived his dream........hahaha.Literally Chi hoon is the most aloof and a funny character.

In short, it started well, the mystery and plot twist is awesome, and it ended really well. Just another good fantasy K-drama. So, Go Watch it!!!!!!

THIS DRAMA's COLOUR IS GREEN. GREEN FLAGS EVERYWHERE

This was such a breath of fresh air. So different from other kdramas and I have watched 150 of them. Intelligent and logical FL . ML was like a shy puppy . Both of them green flags. This drama has a love triangle but it so mature. THE BEST SECOND LEAD I REPEAT BEST SECOND LEAD in any k drama ever. Respects her boundaries, respects her bf , not a typical kdrama triangle plot. Also if you go to the drama without knowing any spoilers, you are in for a surprise. Like the plot will shock you a bit, that bein said it's a murder mystery too but don't go for just the mystery. It was so refreshing to watch , If you are in a mood for a happy ending romance kdrama, with no disgusting drama and green flags give it a chance
