My Lovely Liar: A Fresh and Original Story with Some Execution Issues

My Lovely Liar is a new K-drama that tells the story of a lie detector and a mysterious music composer who come together in bizarre circumstances. The show has a fresh and original premise, and the chemistry between the lead actors is captivating. However, the writing is sometimes weak, and the pace can be slow.

One of the things that sets My Lovely Liar apart from other K-dramas is its unique premise. The idea of a lie detector who can hear people's thoughts is both intriguing and funny. The show does a good job of exploring the implications of this ability, both positive and negative.

Another highlight of the show is the chemistry between the lead actors, Kim So Hyun and Hwang Min Hyun. They have great rapport and their romance is believable and heartwarming. The supporting cast is also strong, with notable performances from Seo Ji Hoon and Yeom Hye Ran.

However, My Lovely Liar is not without its flaws. The writing is sometimes weak, and the pace can be slow. The plot can also be predictable at times, and some of the twists and turns are not as well-executed as they could have been.

Overall, My Lovely Liar is a good K-drama with some execution issues. The premise is fresh and original, the chemistry between the lead actors is great, and the supporting cast is strong. However, the writing is sometimes weak, and the pace can be slow. If you are a fan of Kim So Hyun and Hwang Min Hyun, or you are looking for a K-drama with a unique premise, then My Lovely Liar is worth checking out. Just be prepared for some flaws.

Recommendation:

I would recommend My Lovely Liar to fans of Kim So Hyun and Hwang Min Hyun, as well as fans of K-dramas with unique and original premises. However, I would also caution viewers that the writing is sometimes weak and the pace can be slow.

Supernatural but mundane

The plot was there but also very lacking. In a way certain aspects made sense, especially Sol-Hui’s attraction to Do Ha - which was not because she COULDNT hear his lies, but rather he did not lie often.

It had the potential for a thriller/mystery story , which it sort of went with the latter part of the drama but the supernatural ability was used for a mundane lifestyle ; which I find does fit the title “Lovely Liar”. However, it is more on a romance/drama than mystery which I still enjoyed.

Slightly boring and slow but still entertaining.

Would have liked it more if they didn’t make the gay character into a villain but I digress.

Cheat On Me If You Can (2020) – I think it’s really good but too complicated for me to fully digest since the revelations are put at the ending episodes, like the end-end. I was quite overwhelmed.

The ending is really very questionable for me, but it's quite okay for an open ending. I think I got confused with the ending since the pacing seems a lot faster compared to the first part of the drama. The first parts is really detailed and was shown bit by bit and I had my expectations with the ending. I was really confused with who the killer is, I don't have any pinpoint person as well.

An okay drama overall.

Sweet cute and I appreciate the continued efforts!!!

Hello! I rarely review but need to remind the viewers to think like a business. We are getting a lot more lgbt content in recent years. The veteran actors, writers, directors and producers spent decades to get us to this point. This point? YES we get films, big production series, dating shows, gay couples on major Korean magazine covers AND we get multiple small studios crowd sourced for cute stories to film in a week and bring it to us. Please do not forget! I am grateful and appreciative.

Please appreciate the small stuff too.

We would read this manga and be super happy. Someone spent the money to give us some visual with cute story.

I appreciate them. I appreciate how hard it was to get to this point. I look forward to the future.

The boys did a good job. They were pleasant to watch.
For me the actor playing the chef is damn gorgeous! Phew

Sure if you peel back his actions it may seem stalkerish lol but because it goes so fast he is honest immediately and it's all good. Real life gay is hard anywhere and this showed four different types of men (in one episode) and how they handle things. Was cool.

What I loved is this series is set in a gay friendly world. There was no mention or hesitation of being gay. No fear. Thai BL started doing that too and I am happy with this turn.

Anyway it is very fast, it's cute and worth our stream on legal iQIYI site.

Enjoy and if you can leave a comment for each actor. The actors (mainly Koreans) come to mdl and read our stuff!

Thanks!

Growing Season (2020) - I just discovered a clip in facebook about this drama and I got curious. I watched this drama on youtube and it's pretty short so I finished rather early that what is usual. I am quite surprised that it talks about mature concepts compare to what playlist global offers before. There are parts that I understand especially with the three main characters story that is shown. I like the flow and all, and of course the three female leads.

Though I find them awkward in acting, most of them are fairly new to my eyes, I think they are not as much well known as I haven't seen them much on the korean drama scene/world. Still I tolerated the awkward acting, it's fine in the long run.

I would recommend this as a past time drama with a mature concept.

XX (2020) - this drama is so satisfying to watch. One of the dramas that at first it's not appealing nor engaging for me as a watcher, but as it goes it really has a nice story to tell.

I like that the story revolves around friendship which is the main appeal of the drama. There is romance into it but I think the friendship between the female leads carried the whole drama. The drama talks about friendship that was strained which I like a lot since it's not much seen on korean dramas.

I love the female leads. The actresses really did great in their respective roles as well. They are both beautiful, hilarious, really great.

It's short but satisfying to watch. I would recommend it for sure.

intense & unrelenting

battered and bloody is the heart in Bloodhounds, a truly shocking and grisly crime thriller that never lets up. throats and Achilles tendons are slashed, backs are broken, skin is pierced by knives and arrows, literal salt rubbed into wounds, just an unrelenting display of blood splattered cruelty and violence.

but there is still a heart buried underneath so much carnage. this couldn't possibly be a success if not. it would just be male aggression, a bleak tale of predation and power with no hope in sight. but luckily it has two goobers who are also highly skilled boxers just trying to do good.

I would not watch this again!

cliched plot with cute moments

Overall: this series has a few cliches which I really struggle with hence my rating. 8 episodes about 25 minutes each. Aired on iQIYI.

Content Warnings: non con kiss, non con touching, stalking, vomiting, past death, grief

What I Liked
- cooking
- cute moments
- remembering the same event differently in ep 2
- being upfront in the past to that woman who liked him
- Yoon Seo Bin's cameo in ep 5 & 8
- (neutral) comedy sound effects

Room For Improvement
- the non con
- many cliches/nonsense things such as: the "plan"/approach, poor communication, that conflict in ep 7/8, a restaurant owner with a lot of free time, the "I can explain" but refusing an explanation
- the work scenes dragged

if the plot confuses you Just watch the ORIGINAL

Honesty as a fan of original version I can't review this drama without prejudice.
It has been a year after I heard about Korean remake version of Someday or one day. I am excited and looking forward to watching it. But after I finished watching episode 1, I wasn't sure if this was a drama I really wanted to watch.

Of course, in terms of production costs, the Korean version is higher than the original version.
Whether it's the cinematography, the background, the camera angle, everything looks beautiful, but I think it looks like there's too much filtering applied to it and it doesn't look natural.
I know it's normal for Korean dramas to have bright beautiful backgrounds. But I think it doesn't really fit with this drama.

Since it is a remake version so I cannot help but compare to the original version there are many things that I disappointed.

1. Many scenes was cut off
Actually, a lot of scenes at the beginning of this drama show how heartbroken and upset Female lead (Huang Yu Xuan) is after lost her boyfriend in a plane crashed. And why, after two years, she still cannot move on. Some people might think that it was slow and boring scenes but I think it is very important scenes to build up the emotion into the characters.
That's why I didn't feel that emotion from Han Jun-hee.

2. OST
Originally the biggest impact of this drama is OST.
Seo Ji-won's Gather my tears doesn't have strong impact comparing to Wu Bai's Last Dance.

3. Friendship between 3 main characters
Korean version seems to show more of a high school love triangle than a friendship.
Also, they gave less air-screen time for Jung In-gyu so we didn't see the point of view of him that much.

4. The Character's switch
As you know, both the male and female leads must act in different ages and roles.
They have to act in roles between the ages of 10s-40s.
Jeon Yeo-been : Present Han Jun-hee, Young Han Jun-hee, Kwon Min-ju, Han Jun-hee in Kwon Min-ju's body, Kwon Min-ju act like Han Jun-Hee
Ahn Hyo-seop : Nam Si-heon's in Koo Yeon-jun's body, Real Koo Yeon-jun, High School Nam Si-heon, Old Nam Si-heon

But actually I didn't see the difference. Their acting skills aren't bad. But he just doesn't fit the character.

5. The Ending
In my opinion, it's not memorable ending.
