My Lovely Liar

Who is the actual "LOVELY LIAR"?

First thing first is I have enjoyed watching this amazing drama over the pass 8 weeks,
I never would have thought my Mondays & Tuesdays would come alive each week.
The story is unique with the female lead Sol Hee can hear lies but what I found funny
she tells lies as well to hear them lol. The Male Lead Do Ha is a Composer, adorable and a
sweet heart that lives in fear as he was framed of killing his ex. The CEO made him hide from
everyone and never been seeing in public or while composing. Even via Video conference he
hides his true identity. When Sol Hee met Do Ha she noticed he never tell lies which complicate matters
when she tried to figure things out after he told her about him been framed for a crime he didn't commit.
For the first time, Sol Hee heard a lie after Do Ha's subconscious part of his mind believes he killed his ex
but said "I did not kill her" in his sleep.

Over the time she figured out why she heard that as a lie and remembered her ex told her something
that she heard it as a lie and in fact it was because he had cancer and he was protecting her from
going through the sorrows of his health. She then realized Do Ha was telling the truth so she finally believed him
as not been the killer and they worked together in hunting the actual culprit. I won't spoil everything as it would
not be fun to watch knowing everything. This part of the Drama is a bit complicated to understand while watching
It is best to find out who killed Do Ha's ex while watching! I admit that I guessed who it was but got
confused a couple of times and thats what made the story enjoyable because the writers makes the
viewers play detectives along the way lol. Awaiting last 2 episodes to find out who was the Lovely Liar!

Update!!!!
After completing the entire series, I updated my overall score at 9.5/10 because they should have kissed
after the proposal or at the last scene. I loved episode 15 with the scene the female lead finally called him Oppa!

A Simple But Cute Relationship

I'd like to point out that their relationship isn't as extraordinary as in other dramas, but rather simple and adorable. The plot is primarily based on the trauma of the male lead and some of the trauma of the female lead. Kim Do Ha was traumatized by his girlfriend, who possibly committed suicide. As a result, he was arrested because they believe he is the murderer. At one point, he appears to believe he is a murderer because he was responsible for his girlfriend's death. He has become a well-known songwriter and has distanced himself from the public eye as a result of that case that occurred many years ago. Now, let's talk about the trauma of the female lead. Sol-Hee's trauma was caused by her mother, she discovered her mother was conning people to make money when she was young. When one of the people her mother conned met her, the female lead realized she was telling the truth and helped in finding the money. When she discovered the money, this person ran with it. For many years, she felt indebted to her mother because of this. Her power may appear to others as a blessing, but it is a curse to her. She can tell if someone is lying but cannot tell why they are lying. She couldn't date for very long due to this power, and also the reason why she and her mother don't get along well. The relationship between the male lead and the female lead began when he moved next door due to reporters wanting to know how he looks. At first, their relationship was simply that of neighbors, but they slowly came to know each other better. He would always hide his face from people and she accidentally helped him because of her powers. She thought he was strange for hiding his face, her curiosity got the best of her and she took down his mask to see how he looks. She later discovered he was the famous songwriter Kim Do Ha before he told her because of work (it's a job where she gets paid to tell someone if someone else is lying to them or not). He eventually gains confidence in showing his face to the female lead.

Another Kdrama grossly overrated on this site. As I write this, it is 8.6/10 with over 1000 people accumulated. Like really??! Male lead actor looks like Cha Eun Woo's 2nd cousin and the girlies fall like a puddle on the floor. I don't get it!

No one notices how sub-par the writing is? No one notice how confusing and similar the fl lie/truth bells are? No one noticed all the chance meetings that take place to a ridiculous degree? Leads end up in the same apartment building (apartment b. Is huge with an elevator for several floors, but ml moves right next door to fl. What are the odds? Plus their balconies happen to be side by side). Fl wishes to see ml and magically he happens to be walking right in front of her store. Ml gets out of car at the exact moment fl is leaving apartment building. Fl happens to stop by at a jazz club ml regularly plays the piano at and of course this is the night he's there. No one in a city would run into each other like this. Heck they wouldn't even run into each other like this in a small village. Leads have been in Seoul for 5 years and managed just fine to never cross paths. But suddenly to drive the plot forward in this story they by chance come across each other daily?? Wtf? Also, the cliche Kdramas refuse to let go of where ml and fl know each other in the past is beyond over the hill. This is just lazy writing plain and simple. You have to turn your brain off with a lot of these shows I swear...I mean you know it's bad when you got the female lead legit hopping like a bunny in front of the male lead.

WHEN ASSIGNMENTS WERE ACTUALLY DONE.

I for one would say I personally had zero expectations of this drama. Like ZERO. One for the reason I was skeptical if they could actually pull off this plot like a strong woman did.

like dear, You're throwing In ROM COM and thriller into the same room. LIKE LITERALLY TWO OPPOSITE GENRES. and second for the fact I was skeptical about the FL

so I went into this drama with zero expectations. I had no Kdrama to see so I was like Ok. Piss me off Mr drama. and I was completely blown away. Like Away 😂

I started with ep1 when it aired and dear... I was impressed. Because EP was literally what was need to GRIP the right audience. I always emphasis on dramas having a solid 1st EP because most viewers won't stick around for ep2 to see if it gets better. But this drama actually UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT and did the job.

that ep one was a mixture of what was needs. comedy? thrill yass please. the overall flow of it was just right. and the characters setup was actually necessary. Unlike drama who waste time on UNNECESSARY plots. This drama actually brought to us what was needed from day one.

And that end of ep1 had my jaws...On the flaw. I was crazy excited. And ep2 didn't disappoint at all! Like.. It was on point! A perfect follow up and blend to it all.

and so far I can actually says it's following the genre of ROM com and Thriller Come together. And so far doing it well. And for people saying this drama doesn't know what it wanted to be...Dear it's literally a Romrom thriller or so. do you ASSIGNMENTS before watching lol.

Another reason I was skeptical about this one was the FL. Seriously School 2015 was her only drama I actually liked. and I was skeptical if she could do well here..But I'm honoured. she is actually doing so well. Like well enough to pull off the script and character.

Her character and context of a lie detector is actually well done that I'm curious to see where it goes. ( Hopefully not bad) And ML, If you loved him AOS, you'll love him here. because it's pretty much similar character set-up. and I can say he was born for such roles😂.

The plot itself has a lot of potential and good potential to be a wow plot. I actually find it pretty much interesting. And the idea of a lie detector FL was funny and interesting to follow up. and The Ml Mysterious personality is one suiting follow up.

The support characters, I'm surprised have actually been given a Benefiting and suiting introduction to the story. And they're good too here

But my favourite character remains The FL driver, Like hahah. Give him more Screentime and we're ok😌💅 An ideal Fan boy he is

Overall the plot execution was actually done well. and I won't say a 100% perfect EXECUTION but it was done JUST RIGHT FOR WHAT WAS NEEDED.

So I'm basically looking forward to where this one goes because so far it has my attention for more.

if you're hesitant about this one, I suggest giving it a go. because it's actually good. if you're up for such genre mixture, don't hesitate. it's actually good here. but if you're not sure what Genre it is, please do some research or watch strong woman to see what to expect.

The main leads were cute together

Likes
1. I loved the relationship between Doha and Solhee. I think without the 2 actors' chemistry i probably would have dropped this drama early on.
2. I liked the part when Solhee lost her ability and had to live without it for a while. And when it came back, she still made a decision to stop using her abilitu and instead learn to love and trust the people around her.
3. Minhyun lived a sad life, people around him either didnt trust him or were obsessed with him. Good thing he met Solhee and it changed his life. I wish he continued playing piano at the jazz club.
4. Too bad for Kangmin, he is a nice guy but he didnt trust Solhee enough to tell her that he is sick. Hope he finds someone else too.

Dislikes
1. Disappointed that the ending still focused on Eomji instead of the friendship between Deukchan and Doha, which i thought deserved more appreciation.
2. The neighbors weren't interesting, except for the baker. Wish they paired Kassandra's with the baker instead.
3. Solhee's mom and her dad's story was cringey.

Rating: 8.25/10

I rarely watch dramas that was recently released but this is an exception because the FL is Kim SoHyun with the bonus ML of Hwang MinHyun. I was too excited that as soon as I heard the series is finished, I gave it a try and oh boy I was in for the ride.

To be honest, it's not the best plot out there but I was just kind of interested on the supernatural part of the FL being able to hear lies and how will ML come into picture. I've been trying to avoid kdramas with crime genre as I've been watching too many but somehow, I keep getting pulled towards it. Anyway, the plot is kind of simple with a pinch of lovey dovey moments here and there. There's not much structure on the story it just went on and went which is probably the reason why I saw someone saying that the plot is so random.

Character wise, ML and FL looks cute together (but for some reason I really can't ship SoHyun with anyone) A lot of people saying about 2nd Lead Syndrome and it's true. 2nd ML's story while short is really sad. The supporting characters I feel like were underused. I couldn't feel the chemistry among them because they randomly pops up on the series. I was hoping to see more character development from them. :3 and also what's with the crazy characters on this series? The mothers, Syaon (although she got better), the ex-gf, the ex-gf's brother and secret (don't wanna spoil anyone). They all have some sort of psychopathic tendencies. While it helped the plot, they're too crazy for me.

OST-wise, nothing so remarkable about it. Just fine. What I love though is the ending. For me it's a nice wrap up (as someone who loves happy ending), my heart is so happy to have 2 full episodes just to wrap things up and give almost everyone a nice ending. It's uncommon for KDrama series to have that kind of ending. Most of them wrap things up on the last 30mins keeping you hanging for more. But for this one, it's just enough.

Definitely, recommend. Despite the quirks of this series, I would say I love and enjoyed it. Maybe not a cup of tea for everyone but still, it's just a semi-light-hearted drama that's easy to watch.
