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.
