News It was a chaotic and an exhilarating marriage contract dramas
Lie to Me is one of those OG K-dramas that will always have a special place in my heart. It's among the earliest dramas I've watched, back when Yoon Eun Hye was one of the most sought-after actresses. I actually lost count of how many times I've rewatched this when I was younger, partly because it was one of the few dramas I had a complete copy of. Limited choices meant watching the same titles over and over again, and honestly, I didn't mind one bit. Years later, I'm happy to say the magic is still there!
Of course, watching it through my adult eyes made me realize just how cringey some scenes were and the toxic friends. But did that stop me from enjoying it? Absolutely not! My partner and I were practically screaming at the screen and hitting each other's shoulders because of all the kilig. HAHAHA. There's just something about old-school K-drama romance that makes you forget your age and turn into a lovestruck teenager all over again.
Is it a perfect drama? Definitely not. But does it have to be? For me, some dramas are memorable not because of how brilliantly written they are, but because of how they make you feel. Lie to Me is one of those personal classics I'll always treasure, cheesy scenes and all.
