On the 27th, the production team of My Lovely Liar released the second teaser video, featuring the meeting between Mok Sol Hee (played by Kim So Hyun), who can hear lies, and Kim Do Ha (played by Hwang Min Hyun), who hides the truth. From their suspicious and awkward encounters as neighbors to falling for each other, the teaser raises curiosity about the dynamic relationship between the two.

My Lovely Liar is a romantic mystery drama that unfolds the story of Mok Sol Hee, a liar hunter who cannot trust people due to her ability to hear lies, and Kim Do Ha, a genius composer with a hidden identity. It offers a delightful mix of romance and mystery set against a realistic fantasy backdrop.

Above all, there is great anticipation for the chemistry between Kim So Hyun and Hwang Min Hyun. Kim So Hyun plays Mok Sol Hee, a liar hunter who can hear lies. Growing up hearing all sorts of lies, she leads a suspicious life and encounters her enigmatic next-door neighbor, Kim Do Ha, opening a new chapter. Hwang Min Hyun portrays Kim Do Ha, a hidden genius composer. Living a faceless life hidden from the world, he rediscovers his lost laughter after meeting the peculiar next-door woman, Mok Sol Hee. Kim Do Ha, harboring a secret he can't reveal to anyone, meets Mok Sol Hee, who can see through and understand everything with just a word. The synergy between Kim So Hyun and Hwang Min Hyun, entangled in a special relationship, intensifies the excitement of their story.

In the newly released second teaser, the fateful connection between Mok Sol Hee and Kim Do Ha, starting with a coincidence, is captured, raising curiosity. Kim Do Ha's voice asking Mok Sol Hee, "Do you know me by any chance?" exudes a sense of wariness toward others. Kim Do Ha, a star composer whose identity is unknown except as a man appears in black clothes and a mask, avoiding contact with people. His appearance sometimes becomes endearing and clumsy. To cynical Mok Sol Hee, Kim Do Ha seems like a "strange person" and embodies a concept of "mystery." The phrase "What is this man's true identity?" added to Mok Sol Hee's curious gaze, further piquing interest in their relationship.

Two individuals who seem to have no connection are intertwined in a moment. Mok Sol Hee, a woman who can hear lies, has a neighbor, a mysterious man named Kim Do Ha, who doesn't tell lies. Kim Do Ha moves into Mok Sol Hee's next-door apartment. What is the true identity of Kim Do Ha, who renders Mok Sol Hee's ability as a liar hunter "useless"? Mok Sol Hee's curiosity about whether he never tells lies is followed by an unexpected "heart-fluttering" attack from Kim Do Ha, who says, "You're pretty," raising the heartbeats of viewers. The two suddenly start to care about each other in this peculiar neighborhood. Seeing how their relationship will unfold, despite being at arm's length, becomes intriguing.

Following the release of the second teaser, various social media platforms and online communities were filled with enthusiastic reactions such as "Mok Sol Hee and Kim Do Ha are already making my heart flutter," "Kim Do Ha shines even when tightly bound," "A narrative treasure trove where abilities don't work on each other," "They make eye contact, but why am I the one trembling more?"

Meanwhile, tvN's new Monday-Tuesday drama, My Lovely Liar, will premiere on July 31st at 8:50 PM KST.
