My Lovely Liar (2023) 소용없어 거짓말 Episode 1 Recap & Review

In the year 2018, Mok Sol-hee, a liar hunter and a fan of Manchester United, successfully finds out who passed the information to her client’s rival gang. While heading to Gwanghwamun, she passes by a pedestrian (Kim Do-ha as will be later found out) who is holding a blood-stained jacket.

The next day, she meets Do-ha on the bus but does not remember him and helps him ward off a man who claimed he was cheating on her girlfriend. Do-ha is surprised that she believed him he did not cheat and Sol-hee tells him that she can hear lies. Then, five years later, Sol-hee solves another case and now has its own café where she meets her clients, as well as a coworker Cassandra, and a bodyguard Baek Chi-hoon.

Do-ha is now a famous music writer constantly wearing a mask that only his closest co-workers have seen in person, including Sha On, who brings him the award he won. A reporter manages to take a picture of him and find his home, forcing him to move to another apartment.

Coincidentally, there is another man wearing a black mask in the new neighborhood harassing women at night. This leads to a misunderstanding and just as Do-ha is about to have his mask taken off, Sol-hee announces he is not the right person. Do-ha remembers her. From: Wikipedia
