Dramatic irony is when the audience or readers know the scenes or events of the story that the characters don't. In other words, dramatic irony is when we know what will happen or are privy to parts of the story's plot which the characters don't know.
In the given scene from Act V scene iii of William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet", we can know the real condition of Juliet's red lips. We knew that she had taken poison to make her appear dead but will wake up later, which Romeo has no idea about. So, this is dramatic irony, where the readers or audience know some detail about the scene which the character(s) involved don't know.
