A Thriller Built on Two Versions of One Memory
MBC’s psychological thriller comes from director Jo Young Min, who also made You and Everything Else. A man and a woman give completely opposite accounts of the same memory, and they clash fiercely as each searches for the truth.
Meet Kang Ji Sun: Warm on the Surface
Seo Hyun Jin plays Kang Ji Sun, an elementary school librarian and teacher who insists her version of events is the truth. She doesn’t just listen to what people say. She studies the intentions behind their words. Her life is ordinary and peaceful until cardiac surgeon Min Joon Ho (Yoo Yeon Seok) enters it. Their first date goes perfectly, but unexpected changes soon begin to disrupt her calm routine.
Two Sides of One Character
The new stills show Kang Ji Sun teaching children, with a gentle smile that reflects her warm and approachable nature. The earlier teaser shows a very different side. There she snaps at someone, insisting it isn’t a lie, and she comes across as tense and sensitive.
That sharp shift in tone makes viewers wonder how much to trust her words and actions. It also hints at what might lie beneath her two very different faces.
