My Lovely Liar (2023)

A lovely drama that has a great story line progression

It's a great story first of all. The plot is genuinely very unique and the plot twists are majorly unexpected (atleast on my part) and it's incredibly interesting too. I loved how the storyline progression was slow but still had a lot of info going on. The acting once again, was absolutely incredibly awesome. The cast have put together a great show that is very entertaining for sure. The music is not outstanding or anything but it is certainly good and very mysterious... Which suits the plot very very well. Personally I wouldn't rewatch but it's probably worth it. Overall, a lovely drama with an incredibly beautiful plot. 🤥💲👩🏻‍💼🏘️⚽🧑🏻‍💻🩸🩴

Good Enough

Korean Drama " My Lovely Liar " is a fantasy romance about a girl who can detect lies and a man who is done lying.

The drama starts off strongly, with the main couple getting to know each other and a love story slowly brewing, with enough adorable moments to support the light atmosphere. The mystery of the male lead's past was another factor that kept things interesting for a while, confusing the viewer as to what was his true intentions.

However, towards the ending, things started getting messy. Sure, the romance was cute and the couple had chemistry, even though the love triangle was underdeveloped and unnecessary, but the mystery wasn't handled nicely and it got chaotic. The use of many cliche tropes as well as boring twists didn't aid at all to make things better. The final episode, in addition, felt like a filler rather than an actual conclusion.

Finally, the performances were enjoyable by everyone in the cast, and the fantasy element was managed nicely.

So, overall, six out of ten.

I like it. Their chemistry feels like normal for me it is not that they don't have that 'chemistry' if you watch their bts they are really that comfortable with each other so nothings sparkling when they act iykyk. The story is a disappointment but since its only a 16 ep then ok. I watched this bc of Minhyun I liked him first in AOS his acting is kinda okay since hes in progress. I am proud of his achievement. Overall 7.5/10!! I will miss them all

Nenhuma mentira foi dita nesta resenha hihihi

Achei a proposta do roteiro super legal e original. Os primeiros episódios foram o que me pegaram de jeito e me fizeram dizer "é, esse aqui eu preciso assistir". Depois de algum tempo, comecei a achar tedioso a história porque tudo girava em torno no assassinato da ex namorada e o casal principal ficou muito sem graça, porém, resolvi terminar porque estava perto do final e que bom que fiz isso!!
Quando que eu imaginaria que o plot twist seria não o fato que o assassino era o empresário dele, mas sim, que o motivo pelo qual ele fez aquilo era por estar apaixonado pelo DoHa 🤯🤯🤯🤯 Minha cara ficou no chão com isso! Gostei como trataram tudo e não demonizaram um personagem gay por ele ser gay, mas porque ele cometeu um crime. A história me prendeu legal a a partir disso, gostei como cada personagem secundário teve seu momento de destaque - que foi pequeno, o que é bom.

Lovely, unique, messy

I like the first a lot more.

The story kinda of dragged a lot at the end. They didn't set up the viewers to be invested in the mystery part of the plot so I was only interested in the romance and the characters.

So the show should have ended 1 episode after they got together in my opinion and the killer should have been the father, that way the plot wouldn't be messy. ( too much )

Also I feel like they were trying to create a sense of community/ found family ( I don't know how to explain this well) like in those small town dramas
But I don't think it worked well here as we didn't know the stories of the individuals nor did we need to. So that's another thing that made the drama messy was too many unnecessary characters.

[heart] [heart]

It started off as bland but then when you started to understand why things happened the way they did, it started getting interesting. Especially the murder mystery embroiled between the characters and trust me, when the real murder was revealed it actually got me by surprise. cuz I NEVER saw that coming!! and the reason behind it is something no one could have guessed! That's why I said, things get interesting when you know why they did to why they did.

And a [rose] for Kim So Hyun, my baby is getting better in her acting with each of her projects. [heart] [heart]

If you don't have anything else to watch.... check this one ...

the premise of the story is interesting.... a girl that can hear lies and how can she cope with that.
In a world where we are in constant "please others" mode... lying is a giving. So you can imagine what kind of life this girl has.
But as a smart woman... she had made a business out of it.

Here I thought.. GOOD FOR YOU! she is not a victim...

Of course, she meets the ML and there is something strange with him.. (typical.. he is the exception to the rule).
I liked that she behaved very normal with him... even though he is super famous and used to have everybody wanting something from him.
She does not need him... that is a big difference.

their romance started with a sort of friendship and moved quickly into something else... that was nice.

the story itself was OK.... It kept me interested until the end...

I took points out because the end was a bit blah....
SPOILER HERE
she decided not to profit from her gift and stop using it as a business... I do not understand why, instead of evolving with it, she quits it...
her romance with ML was cute / a bit childish too. Again one of the many k-couples that have never kissed anyone else, and behave like teenagers, even though they are 30 year old.

Overall.. it is an OK story... if you have nothing else to watch, it is OK.

They delivered what they promised, an breezy full of butterfiles romcoms with a twist of mystery!

I understand that people may have two different camps in seeing how Min Hyun’s acting on screen but I strongly, I repeat, I STRONGLY, believe he delivers what Do Ha/ Seung Ju is supposed to be as a character. His awkwardness but direct personality shines through his acting. He perfectly portrays how years of distrust actually shaped him as a person and that is why trust is really the currency that he responded to, underneath he is still a shy and direct person. So Min Hyun, if you ever come across to this comment section, believe us that YOU DID WELL!

The plot twist from Deuk Chan’s motive is not really the best shot, it would be more intriguing if the pas GF was really killed herself and everyone was just doubtful of Seung Ju because of the circumstances and easily dismissed all of his background an track records. It is a hard situation and therefore really intriguing to explore.

But setting aside the above, kudos to the production team who breaks all the KDrama rom com trope that I did not like: Miscommunication between the leads!!

Kdrama romcom usually spends a lot of time just to make us frustrated of why the leads does not have an open and honest conversation and deals with it cool headed. They like to throw the typical trope - I love you so it’s better for you to stay away from me, kind of thing which is so 2010 man.

Here they spent less than 2 episode of some quick truth checking and our main leads back on track without any presumption and annoying will they wont they thing which can easily drag the drama. That’s how big trust and open communication are placed in the front and center theme of this drama.

Few more details that I love as decades long of a Kdrama fan here: They did not make the ML good at cooking! ? well he did his best but the thoughts and effort that counts! Not everyone has to be perfect! And the FL is so confident and far from a damsel in distress type of girl which I love.

I do figure some gaps in writing and my guess is bcs they added some details on the spot. It may be unpopular opinion, but I ADORE THAT APPROACH. It is so refreshing and that is what makes this drama extra special! How often you see the NG scenes are actually included in the final cuts, the casts and the director must have the same braincells that their humor works.

So again overall if you are looking for an easy breezy romcoms that will give you butterflies - and not the kind of I am a rich heir and therefore I am here with all my staff to save you kind of thing - go watch this! They really have the GREENEST relationship in a KDrama land where you both know you need each other and you placed trust and communication as bridge to keep the relationship healthy.

They promise us a romantic comedy with a dash of mistery, and sure thing they delivered it!

So an easy 8.5/10 from a kdrama fan here!!

Good till it became a drag

The show did start off with a bang. The suspense factor was really there which I loved. The way the show made us believe that the ex k worded herself just for us to find out she was actually murdered.

The romance factor I feel was so comforting and cute. I do wish we got more of it than the suspense part sometimes but other than that it was actually so good. I think I loved it even more since I love the two main actors in it.

The only thing I feel made this show kinda meh at points was the random scenes with other characters. Also the plot twist of the best friend liking Do Ha was good but like at the same time kinda was just thrown out there. This also made it a weak point on why he killed the girl (even if it was unintentional). Like come on really that is why you did what u did. Just cuz she was gonna expose him to Do Ha is ridiculous and insane to me. I wished it was a more shocking reveal to be honest.

However, I did find comfort in the main lead’s relationship and made me want to continue watching for that.

What I like most about this drama is this there’s a lot of plot to keep it interesting till episode 16
The chemistry between the leads to is so good
And the way all characters executed their role is so perfect (especially the side characters)
I’m so impressed , I’m pretty sure majority of the viewers here won’t expect the show to be this good and interesting I’m suprised too hope they keep up the pace

Once the I realised the Biggest Lie I had to Drop This Sorry Tale

This story is based on a huge flaw.

I am dropping this At Episode 8 because of a huge gaping plot anomoly or more like character anomoly that renders it totally dissatisfying. It just hit me at end of Ep 8 that the FL is a huge hypocritical liar and the story should not exist.

I feel so bad for the 2ML, the reason they broke up was purely the FL unwillingness to tell him her secret and so get a clear answer off him. Its not how she could trust him if he couldn't tell her this big secret? Its she is literally lying to him by omission every single day of their relationship. So he is just a noble idiot but she is a liar who, rather than sharing her secret to save the relationship, just breaks up with him. Then, she blames him for cutting her off. When he is just trying to get well to go back to her.

So now that she is honest with ML, it's all ah that's nice they trust each other this is why he's better than 2ML no no no she just lied to the 2ML but doesnt to the ML SHE was and is the problem.. It's just too silly. If she gets honest with 2ML 3 yrs ago he obcs gets honest with her and boom their beautiful love continues they get married have babies.

So its actually farcical that when the 2ML hears that she can hear lies, he didn't explode and say WHAT THE HELL!! WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO? WHY DIDN'T YOU MAKE ME EXPLAIN? YOU THOUGHT I WAS CHEATING OR SOMETHING WHEN I WAS BREAKING MY HEART TO PROTECT YOU. BUT IT WAS ALL A JOKE CAUSE YOU KNEW I WAS LYING BUT COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO TELL ME!! AND WHEN WERE YOU GOING TO TELL ME THIS HUGE LIFE AND RELATIONSHIP ALTERING SECRET?? AFTER WE WERE MARRIED WTF YOU ARE THE BIGGEST LIAR OF ANYONE EVER!!!! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME. Etc etc

So now I feel this whole show and anything that happens now will be tarnished, and I just can't feel happy for the FL for the shitty way she has treated and is treating her ex BF.

She should be married to him. Instead now he and we have to watch her doing with a new guy what she wouldn't do for him be honest!!!!! Specifically at end ep 8 she says you dont have to explain why you apparently lied about killing someone I believe you and trust you so much I dont even want to know why it seems your lying or what it's all about.

She couldn't trust the 2ML the guy she agreed to marry for not telling her why he was going away for a few days!!! We also have to watch 2ML being all nice and understanding about it. At the very least, can't he call her out on her unbelievable hypocrisy. Who writes these glaring plotholes.

Am I making any sense? I think I am.
