Hwang Min-hyun woos with truth in tvN’s My Lovely Liar

by tccolb

A new teaser has been released for tvN’s My Lovely Liar, this time giving the spotlight to our male lead Hwang Min-hyun (Alchemy of Souls), as well as the first blooms of romance with our heroine Kim So-hyun (Love Alarm 2).

Owing to her special ability to discern lies from truth, it’s usually easy for Mok Sol-hee (Kim So-hyun) to read people and figure out their intentions. But as we learn in the new teaser, even the all-hearing Sol-hee finds songwriter Kim Do-ha (Hwang Min-hyun) puzzling and she looks confused when he asks her, “Do you know me, by any chance?”

As we watch a very conspicuous Do-ha sneaking around in a mask, in voiceover he’s described as being a little odd: he doesn’t seem to meet with people and there’s very little known about him. Sol-hee guesses that Do-ha must be an attention-seeker and acting mysterious is his concept. In the intermittent text screens, we read: “Who is this man? A suspicious man who doesn’t(?) lie has appeared next door to a woman who can hear lies.”

But when Sol-hee actually talks to Do-ha, she’s once again perplexed. In the sequence, we watch as our pair share some charged moments and merrily go out for drinks. A matter-of-fact Do-ha tells Sol-hee outright that she’s pretty and plainly asks her, “Did you not have any thoughts when you saw my face?” Sol-hee starts by saying, “Well… just… he’s good-looking?” But she’s unable to hold her curiosity and the teaser closes on her question to Do-ha, “Do you normally not lie?”

With PD Nam Sung-woo (Love in Contract, My Roommate is a Gumiho) at the helm and scripts by Seo Jung-eun (Let Me Be Your Knight), tvN’s mystery rom-com My Lovely Liar will be coming to our screens on July 31.
