Good Enough
Korean Drama " My Lovely Liar " is a fantasy romance about a girl who can detect lies and a man who is done lying.
The drama starts off strongly, with the main couple getting to know each other and a love story slowly brewing, with enough adorable moments to support the light atmosphere. The mystery of the male lead's past was another factor that kept things interesting for a while, confusing the viewer as to what was his true intentions.
However, towards the ending, things started getting messy. Sure, the romance was cute and the couple had chemistry, even though the love triangle was underdeveloped and unnecessary, but the mystery wasn't handled nicely and it got chaotic. The use of many cliche tropes as well as boring twists didn't aid at all to make things better. The final episode, in addition, felt like a filler rather than an actual conclusion.
Finally, the performances were enjoyable by everyone in the cast, and the fantasy element was managed nicely.
So, overall, six out of ten.
