Actress Seo Hyun-jin shared the key points to watch in ‘Liar.’

MBC’s new Friday-Saturday drama ‘Liar’ (directed by Cho Young-min / written by Baek Jae-young) tells the story of a man and a woman who fiercely clash as they pursue the truth, each making diametrically opposed claims about a single memory. The combination of an intriguing premise, unpredictable and bold plot development, the powerful performances of the cast, and Director Cho Young-min’s delicate and stylish direction promises the birth of a well-made psychological thriller.

‘Liar’ depicts the tense confrontation between Yoon Ye-seok (playing Min Jun-ho) and Seo Hyun-jin (playing Kang Ji-sun), based on the premise that “one of the two protagonists is lying.” On this, the production team stated, “Both lead characters have the characteristic of being difficult to easily categorize as good or evil. Min Jun-ho appears affectionate yet cold, while Kang Ji-sun seems warm yet sensitive. This will further confuse viewers and increase their immersion in the drama,” adding, “However, it must have been a by no means easy task for the actors who directly portray them.”

So, what did Seo Hyun-jin focus on most when portraying Kang Ji-sun? In response, Seo said, “From Episode 1 to Episode 12, I consulted with the director about how much to reveal at key points in each scene.” Seo explained that she strived to express her performance in line with the drama’s progression, which does not reveal all the truth from the start but approaches it step by step.

As if proving Seo Hyun-jin’s efforts, the ‘Liar’ production team unanimously praised her highly immersive acting. The team said, “When you watch Seo Hyun-jin’s performance on set with full absorption, before you know it, you find yourself empathizing with the explosive emotions Kang Ji-sun feels,” adding that this is “the reason we expect Seo Hyun-jin to deliver another career-best performance through ‘Liar.’”

On the other hand, Seo Hyun-jin also added a special explanation about ‘Liar.’ She revealed, “This was something I discussed with Director Cho Young-min as well, but it seems ‘Liar’ can be divided into three chapters: Episodes 1–4, 5–8, and 9–12. As the flow changes in each chapter, we hope viewers will be able to newly suspect (?) who is actually lying.”

Finally, Seo Hyun-jin said, “We shot intensely together with the actors and staff. Please watch it in large numbers. I really hope our drama wins your hearts,” wittily encouraging viewers to watch ‘Liar.’

The first episode of ‘Liar’ airs at 9:50 p.m. on the 30th.
