In upcoming suspense melodrama Lies of Lies, starring Lee Yuri (Spring Must Be Coming) and Yeon Jung-hoon (Posessed) has just dropped a new teaser. Lee Yuri plays a woman who once had everything, but lost it all when she was convicted of murdering her husband and was sent to prison. Upon her release, she learns that her beloved daughter was adopted by Yeon Jung-hoon, and she plots to find a way into their lives.
The recently released teaser shows her costar Yeon Jung-hoon falling for her, only to realize there might be something dark and sinister at play.
Lee Yuri meets Yeon Jung-hoon through several chance encounters. In one, she’s at an arcade and bows hesitantly as he smiles back. His daughter asks him: “Do you know that ajumma?” Then, there’s a typical drama moment where he saves her by twirling her to safety, away from oncoming traffic.
To his daughter, he explains that he’s seen Lee Yuri a couple times, but she always looked like her mind was elsewhere and he grasps for words. She completes his thought by saying that the ajumma looked sad.
The two of them have some quality father-daughter time as Yeon Jung-hoon narrates: “After that day, I thought just having my daughter was enough, but more and more, I feel concerned about this woman. My heart goes to her.” In the dark, Lee Yuri lurks and watches them. Copy appears around Lee that says, “She appeared out of nowhere, like a lie.” Some clips of the Lee-Yeon courtship is shown, and there’s a hint that a steamy night that ensued. The caption says, “I fell for a dangerous lie.”
Then the teaser grows darker as Yeon continues to narrate, “I’m afraid that all of this might be a lie.” He witnesses Lee, covered with blood, stabbing a man on the floor. The next thing we see is Yeon outside. Shocked and devastated, he collapses by a streetlight. His daughter’s voice asks, “Do you like her?”
Channel A’s Friday-Saturday drama Lies of Lies, directed by Kim Jung-kwon and written by Kim Ji-eun, will begin airing on September 4.
