Kang Ji Hwan and Yoon Eun Hye Confirmed as the Leads for Lie to Me

It’s confirmed! Oh praise the drama gods, ye benevolent and crazy deities up above. A pairing that I dare not even dream about until a month ago because it seemed so impossible is now officially a reality – the production of Lie to Me have comfirmed that Yoon Eun Hye and Kang Ji Hwan will be the leads for the upcoming romantic comedy. Both are on my personal list of favorite actors (near or at the top of the list to be honest), and both can coax chemistry out of a log or a wet sponge.

These two ooooze charisma by the bucket loads, and are so beautiful my eyes hurt just gazing at their gorgeousness. And now I can officially say it – the Coffee Couple is born! (YEH did Coffee Prince, KHJ did Coffee House). But this also puts me in a quandry – I can’t decide which drama to recap come May, this or Best Love? Oh woe is me and my plentiful drama plate next month.

I don’t even care who the second leads are, to be honest, and frankly as long as the script has plenty of angsty emoting and making out, I’ll be happy. I feel so utterly shallow, but I already judged myself so no need to judge me. Yoon Eun Hye and Kang Ji Hwan actually presented at the Baeksangs as a presenting couple, and they looked so good together back them I had heard the mumurings of them acting together in the future. Now I can scratch this off my drama bucket list.

  • Now with lacks good kdrama since DH over,may give loads good drama.hope you can do both.because best love and this contain good actors,gorgeous couple that can deliver chemistry.so can’t wait for it.

  • WOW...such GREAT NEWS!!! YEH & KJH are 2 of my most favorite KActors!!! What a TREAT!!!
    Please...PLEASE RECAP this drama...Ockoala...I BEG YOU!!!!

  • i personally don't really like her (except for Goong) but i LOVE him. SO totally watching this! i hope you recap this :)

  • aw man...now I'm going to have to watch this being the YEH completist that I am.....I've softened a bit to this drama after hearing that the writer wasn't the main one for HTTG, she was the assistant or something...plus the premise sounds hopeful.....May sonds like the exact opposite of March which is full on heavy dramas and May is full of trendy's (Which are exactly my type of dramas) sole exception being Ripley....the sad part is that I started out not being keen on any and now they all look promising to me...I'm going to have a really hard time that's for sure

  • Coffee couple - lol, PERFECT! Now I know there is a Drama god, because he just answered all my prayers. I can barely sit still even now. Soo gonna watch this!

    Why is it still April? T.T

  • Please note, writer Kim Ye Ri is supposedly talented. She is one of the writers who actually was chosen by broadcasting station (SBS) in a formal process, which is considered a very difficult selection process, unlike many writers who enter the business through other channels. [While the writer was selected to work in 'Heading To The Ground', it is said that she left the project in the beginning. She was to gain some experience with 'Heading To The Ground' as an assistant writer, but left without working on it. So for anyone who didn't like 'Heading To The Ground', please note that she wasn't the one who actually worked on it.]

  • Not so keen on her (and the writer or director), but very keen on Kang Ji Hwan!!!
    Hopefully his contract dispute or whatever won't cause any problems. Poor guy has been lying low ever since Coffee House.. sighs..

  • Because I love Eun Hye and I like KJH and because I know this is a rom-com, I will watch the drama. I like all the projects of Eun Hye except one (I love Goong) and I like Coffee House, I am excited about this new project. And I am sure it will have one of the best OST's.

  • I like YEH so I'm looking forward to this! :) I'm not too sure about KJH though as I didn't get to see Coffee House or any of his other dramas. I found him a little bit OTT in Capital Scandal which I didn't finish. It seemed as if he was acting in a play rather than a drama, or maybe that was what the role called for.

  • Not a big fan of Kang Ji Hwan but I'd just watch about everything Yoon Eun Hye is in.
    I was hoping for a Yoon Eun Hye and Park Shi Hoo pairing but will still watch this regardless.
