If Lie to Me the drama was akin to a lie, promising something that didn’t exist (the normative good script and good execution requirements), then the process of watching LTM transformed the viewers into living the lie within the drama … Continue reading
I think I’ve turned into a crybaby. I cried through the entire last two episodes of 49 Days (like, who didn’t?), and now I’ve cried through the entire episode of Lie to Me. Except this time it was all tears … Continue reading
Huge. Giant. Insanely. Awesome. And. Gorgeous. Spoilers. For. Episode. 16. Of. Lie. To. Me. The. End. The top picture is the least spoilery, so enjoy the scenary. I’ve officially decided that HwanHye together is prettier than Jeju. The World Tourism … Continue reading
