Sotsugyo - OST
The Liar and His Lover is a Japanese romantic drama film, directed by Norihiro Koizumi and based on the manga of the same name by Kotomi Aoki. The film stars two main actors, Takeru Satoh and Sakurako Ohara, as Aki Ogasawara and Riko Koeda - two people who fall in love through music.
Aki Ogasawara, a 25-year-old genius composer, is composing music for the famous band Crude Play. Even though she had everything in her hand, earning a huge income of 100 million Yen per year, Aki was extremely frustrated with using music as a business to make money and felt pathetic. One day, with his drop-dead handsome appearance on the riverbank, he accidentally met a strange girl, high school girl Riko Koeda (also a big fan of Crude Play). Aki heard Riko's clear voice and was attracted.
Aki and Riko gradually become close to each other. Aki composes music for Riko and practices with her to form a new band. Riko loves Aki with all her heart and trusts him completely. However, Aki does not dare reveal his true identity to Riko, fearing that she will hate him for lying. He also had to face pressures and conflicts in the music industry, as well as jealousy and envy from those around him.
