"Love, Lies" held many firsts for actress Han Hyo Joo. Well, maybe just two. It was not only the actress's first time playing a somewhat villainous role but also the first time she transformed herself into an bent-backed, wrinkly old woman.
At the premiere for the movie, which progressed on April 4 at the Lotte Cinema, Han Hyo Joo relayed her thoughts on getting to play the elderly version of her character with the help of some makeup. She said, "The director was thinking of doing the elderly makeup [on me] from the very beginning. There was some differences in opinion."

The actress continued, "I worried a lot over the movie doing bad because of any mistakes I might make. Even as I was filming, I was really worried. The director had to convince me [to do the elderly makeup]. The line in the script which compelled me to choose the movie went, 'Why didn't I know then what a good thing I had.' I made up my mind after thinking that I must also read this line with So Yul's face."
