In ‘Liar,’ the fierce clash of truths between Yoo Yeon-seok and Seo Hyun-jin is set to intensify.

MBC’s Friday-Saturday drama ‘Liar’ (directed by Cho Young-min / written by Baek Jae-young), which premiered on October 30, left a strong impression on viewers by depicting in detail and depth the truth game between Min Jun-ho (played by Yoo Yeon-seok), “the man who speaks facts,” and Kang Ji-sun (played by Seo Hyun-jin), “the woman who asserts the truth.”

Previously, cardiac surgeon Min Jun-ho and elementary school librarian Kang Ji-sun had developed mutual affection and shared a “perfect first date.” However, the next day, Kang Ji-sun reported Min Jun-ho to the police. The two clashed fiercely, presenting diametrically opposed claims about what happened on the night of their “perfect first date.” In the midst of this, polygraph test results revealed that it was Kang Ji-sun who had lied among the two, delivering a major shock to viewers.

Amidst this, on the 6th, the production team for ‘Liar’ released stills of Min Jun-ho and Kang Ji-sun facing off in a tense standoff ahead of the broadcast of Episode 3 that same day. In particular, as these scenes had been featured in highlight videos prior to the premiere and received high praise for the two actors’ powerful performances, curiosity and anticipation are rising further.

In the stills, Min Jun-ho and Kang Ji-sun stand facing each other in what appears to be a hospital corridor where Min Jun-ho works. Min Jun-ho, who has consistently protested his innocence, claiming there was no coercion regarding the events of “that night,” gazes at Kang Ji-sun with a complex and subtle expression. On the other hand, Kang Ji-sun, who has claimed victimhood, asserting that the events of “that night” were forced, stares back at Min Jun-ho with an unwavering gaze filled with hostility. What is the reason for Kang Ji-sun visiting the hospital where Min Jun-ho is located?

According to the production team for ‘Liar,’ in this scene, Kang Ji-sun warns Min Jun-ho, “You can’t fool me!” In response, Min Jun-ho counters, “I am not the kind of person you think I am.” Rather than the case being settled by the polygraph test results, the battle of truths between the two is set to intensify, which is expected to heighten the immersion in the drama.

In this regard, the production team for ‘Liar’ stated, “The tension in the drama will soar when Min Jun-ho and Kang Ji-sun face each other. Depending on whom viewers suspect and whom they believe among the two, the meaning of that scene will be perceived differently.” They added, “As it is a crucial scene in the development of the plot, actors Yoo Yeon-seok and Seo Hyun-jin put much thought into it and consulted with each other before filming. The on-site staff held their breath at the immense concentration of the two actors. We ask for your high expectations.”

Episode 3 of ‘Liar’ airs at 9:50 p.m. on the 6th.
