I really enjoyed this drama for its fun and adorable romantic moments. It was a little ridiculous at times too but the cute fluffy moments between our main leads and then the relationships with the other characters made that all fine. I really had a great time watching this one. And the background music had some parts that will stay with me forever :)
8/10

yes

this is quite something else. I was at first hesitant with how much they revealed early on but wow this is emotionally intense. Still i think something is still missing, either it is the portrayal of emotions or some occurrences that are a little strange. Still great drama, love it, want more, next episode please

very entertaining movie, great acting, great characters. Really enjoyed this mix of actors. They worked so amazingly well together! 9/10

wow, just wow. I never realized she was the one who played in Silenced, The Phone, Hope and Falsify till Cursed aired and I absolutely could not stop looking her up. What an amazing actress! She has now become one of my most favorite

wow what an impressive first episode! amazing!

This drama has an absolute masterpiece of background music tunes. However thats where the masterpiece ends. I switched between watching it because it sounded nice - to being gripped - to back just for knowing how it will play out.
It has a good storyline but for me it felt like they suddenly decided to go into too many directions instead of focusing on one and truly emptying all the potential that one had to offer. It was a similar thing with the characters. While the main male lead stayed the same, although perfectly played by Kim Min Kyu, the female lead lost everything that made her interesting after the first half of the drama. The ending was a big cluster of confusion as well.
I give this a 7,5/10.

I really did enjoy this a lot. It is absolutely brutally realistic, which some may like or dislike. In my case i was not expecting it but it was a nice change from the typical drama-dreamworld. When it comes to romance this tops everything though, this had the most couple-like scenes, the most kisses, and the most intimacy i have seen in dramas, without it being too much. It truly felt realistic to the bone.
Well done! 8,5/10 for me

what an absolute gem this was!
amazing characters, amazing story, amazing amazing amazing
10/10

I have seen this and finally finished it yesterday.
I really do find it a well done little gem, but i kinda miss the feelings of the characters. For me it truly does not seem like the characters and the actors are connecting. Its like roles they play and, even if i really enjoy the story and the cinematographic and the music, this is a big minus.

it is a very predictable story. but it got some good meaning behind it. However i must say i stayed only till the end because of Too Sang Wook and Han Ye Seul are my favorite actors. They did an absolute amazing job once again. This is the great charm about them, you see them in a drama and you know the characters they portray will be darn well developed. However the story this time....it is well done but i got bored after the firs 7 episodes. It was a very easy outcome you could see form episode 3 onwards.
still well done acting, good music, i give it a 7/10

the promo picture caught me, the story made me stay and watch it. Its quite a nice one, the story, although a little predictable, is interesting. The characters are fun. The only problem i had was the lack of emotions.You did not feel the character and that was quite tricky with this one. I really liked the cinematographic and the music, the story was also nice to watch but it was not something you could feel, that makes you feel for the pain of the character or the frustration of a character. It was a little ...empty there. So i will give this a 7,5/ 10

oh yes! very good one as well

well done article but i think you missed out on some dramas like Misty, The Good Wife and Big Issue, that screamed strong female lead. :)

I absolute agree with you. This drama is so very precious. It has such a strong message. People truly are missing out on it .

damn this is hella creepy. best thriller in a long time

yes so am I. I dearly do hope that our main duo ends up together. Although the 2nd male lead is quite adorable as well, Jung Hyuk and Soo Yun have something so special to their relationship. I truly hope this works out.

The summary sounds romantic no? It definitely gives a lot of potential. But the potential is falling empty. This drama feels so out of place.
Each time when I thought we would reach depth and actually got somewhere, it fell flat. It's not a bad drama, but it is not something I would say I would watch again. I give it 6,5/10 points.

The Lie Within was one of my favorite dramas of 2019 as well. It kept one on the edge till the end. And I truly liked the character set, it was quite unusual for a kdrama but so good. The music i actually enjoyed a lot, and i kept listening to it back and forth XD

it has a happy ending in terms of her accomplishing her dream. The leads are hinted about being romantically involved but they are not really. It is just special feelings without acting on them.
I would say yes the end is satisfying but at the same time it is not since one had hoped the leads would have a happy ending together but that is not the case.
If you look for a romance drama you might not consider this.
