The Liar and His Lover: Review
The drama told a story about an ordinary girl who fell in love with music. She’s Yoon So-rim (played by Red Velvet’s Joy). She used to always be with her best friends, Baek Jin-woo (played by Song Kang) and Lee Gyoo-sun (played by Park Jong-hyeok). The three of them were also fond of music and formed a band called Mush & Co, and were always involved in music competition, although they never did well. That wasn’t because of their bad performance, but because Yoon So-rim had a panic attack every time she stood up on the stage. Yoon So-rim’s best friends never had a problem with that because they knew the reason behind Yoon So-rim’s trauma. Meanwhile, there’s also Kang Han-kyeol (played by Lee Hyun-woo), he was famously known as the songwriter for the band named Crude Play. Kang Han-kyeol used to be one of the members, but he decided to leave the band and remained to be a songwriter for Crude Play. He was one of the major factors in Crude Play’s success. Accidentally, Yoon So-rim met with Kang Han-kyeol in Han River while she was cycling around. At first place, Han-kyeol didn’t tell Yoon So-rim that he was the songwriter for Crude Play, although Yoon So-rim was a Crude Play fan. As time went by, Kang Han-kyeol and Yoon So-rim started getting closer than before. Even though Kang Han-kyeol used to have a singer girlfriend, Chae Yoo-na (played by Hong Seo-young), he wasn’t really in love with her. He just loved her appearance, not sincerely in love with her. Eventually, Kang Han-kyeol and Yoon So-rim were working at the same company. Kang Han-kyeol as a songwriter, and Yoon So-rim with her band with her friends, Mush & Co. The band was produced by Seo Chan-young (played by Lee Seo-won), who was also Crude Play’s bassist. Yoon So-rim loved Kang Han-kyeol at first sight in Han River, meanwhile Kang Han-kyeol fell for her after he heard her voice. Even though Kang Han-kyeol often lied to Yoon So-rim and ended up hurting her, they always found a way of getting back together, as well. Even though all of the story seemed to go well, they also faced some of problems in their life. There were love conflicts, decision making between occupations and private life, competition in music industry, the obstacles from their agency, and other issues! But still, The Liar and His Lover was kind of a light-conflict drama and a light romantic series that made you fall in love easily! The Liar and His Lover is highly recommended for those of you who are fond of teenage love relationships and less conflict. But still, the love conflicts obviously color this drama, the love triangle between Yoon So-rim, Seo Chan-young, and Kang Han-kyeol was adorable, yet sad at the same time.
