Whose Truth Is It?
The drama is directed by Jo Young Min of You and Everything Else. It centers on a man and a woman who give completely opposite accounts of the same memory and clash fiercely as they search for the truth.
Meet the Leads
Min Joon Ho (Yoo Yeon Seok) is known as a man who tells the truth. He is a cardiac surgeon and a father raising his son alone after his wife’s death.
Kang Ji Sun (Seo Hyun Jin) insists her version of events is the truth. She is an elementary school librarian and teacher who doesn’t just listen to what people say. She examines the intentions behind their words.
What the Poster Tells Us?
In the new poster, Joon Ho and Ji Sun stand face to face with unwavering gazes, foreshadowing a tense standoff between the facts and the truth each claims. The caption makes it personal: “You’re the one who lied.” It’s a simple line that raises big questions about what happened between them.
