◆ Yoo Yeon-seok and Seo Hyun-jin reunite after 10 years, having written a record-breaking viewership myth with a peak rating of 27.6%

The romantic doctors we loved 10 years ago have reunited as a man and a woman who clash fiercely over diametrically opposed claims about a single memory. Actor Yoo Yeon-seok (playing Min Jun-ho), a Janus-like figure where affection and coldness coexist. Actor Seo Hyun-jin (playing Kang Ji-sun), possessing powerful screen focus. It is worth noting what kind of synergy will explode when the two actors, whose acting skills and chemistry have already been proven, come together, and how they will draw viewers into "Liar."

◆ The only well-made psychological thriller that will pierce the hearts of viewers in the second half of 2026

A perfect date, different memories. And then begins the fierce truth battle between the two. "Liar" will provide viewers with the ultimate immersion through its subject matter and story that evoke curiosity and tension. Above all, it is expected to show the pinnacle of the psychological thriller genre by creating tension based on the premise that one of the two—a single dad trusted by everyone who is also a cardiac surgeon, and a warm and good teacher to children—is lying.

◆ The convergence of the strongest production team turning a fierce psychological drama into a well-made work

"Liar" is the first drama from Geumhwa-sa Jip, which has produced numerous hit films such as "The Priests," "A Day to Remember," and "Broker." Kakao Entertainment, which has presented global box office hits such as "Married Woman Killer," "Rats," and "We Were So Beautiful," also lent its support. In addition, Director Jo Yeong-min, who received high praise for delicately depicting characters' emotional changes in works like "Do You Like Brahms?" and "Eun-jung and Sang-yeon," is at the helm. Writer Baek Jae-young has completed a story that is impossible to stop watching once started, with elegant psychological descriptions and dramatic development.
