Flower of evil, cada episódio um mix de emoções
Nossa, vamo lá né? Primeiramente falar desse último episódio que foi bastante sofrimento e pouca felicidade, não gostei sem necessidade viu? Inclusive fiz um final perfeito na minha mente e queria muito que ele tivesse se lembrado de tudo ? mas tudo bem, queria a hae su e o moo Jin juntos também, a hae su com a Eun ha ?Mas parabenizar esse drama que foi o motivo da minha loucura esses últimos dias, não conseguia fazer nada pensando em flower of evil. Parabenizar o Joon gi que já é um dos meus favs mas ele entregou TUDO que tinha pra entregar nesse papel, todas as expressões e emoções, ele se superou incrivelmente. Fiquei mais apaixonada ainda pelo trabalho dele. Impecável. E a relação dele com a Eun ha? A coisa mais linda do MUNDO, meu papai e filhinha favs do universo SIM. Por favor façam mais drama com casais já casados e com filhos eu PRECISO. O amor dele e da ji won minha nossa, eu sofri muito viu? Ela chorando vários episódios seguidos e eu do outro lado, ela chorou viu? Chorou muito. Mas arrasou demais também, todo o elenco teve uma construção muito boa e eu gostei bastante, o drama teve muito plot e muita coisa que não não deixava você com a mente quieta, talvez a única incógnita seria a do porque consideraram a morte do min seok como suicídio e a jung mi suk e o marido também ? mas falando dos vilões, esse cara tá de parabéns viu? Conheci ele em money heist Korea e nossa o papel dele era todo tabacudo e aqui ele deu um show, tanto que não quero ver ele por um bom tempo de tanto ódio que eu senti, um dos melhores vilões já bem interpretados que já vi, ele realmente merece muitos prêmios foi incrível, sensacional demais a química dele com o joon gi em cena era surreal. Flower of evil entrou pros favs sim, incrível demais! Que dramão.

One of the best dramas I've ever seen It was a story about a dangerous psychopath married to an intelligent police officer, implying that there would be a clash between the two, a bit like cat and mouse, being even more intense because they had a young daughter together, but in the end it was a romance between the two. Heesung suddenly went from a psychopath to a normal and passionate man, and Jiwon from a strong and determined woman to a passionate sufferer, who forgot everything her husband did. Until the last moment I was rooting for him to be pretending and using her, but no, they wasted their potential. However, Heesung before the change, his relationship with his father, the couple against the real Heesung and him as the villain was incredible. Furthermore, Eunha is a beautiful and perfect little baby. Esta resenha foi útil para você?
A cada episódio você vai criando uma nova teoria, mas logo descobre que não faz sentido e cria outra... Até chegar no final e ser algo totalmente inesperado.
os atores são incriveis. Lembro de assistir e não saber se odiava ou se adorava o protagonista, enquanto ao vilão, foi sensacional sua atuação, o clima que ele transmitia era inesplicavel. Todos os atores foram ótimos em seus personagens, mas queria dá um destaque a criança... Nunca tinha gostado tanto de um personagem como gostei do dela, era carismático, fofo e muito bom de ver cada cena dela. Várias foram as vezes que rir como uma boba por sua causa.
Parabéns a todos os envolvidos nessa obra de arte.

flower of evil foi um dos doramas que mais me entregou emoções enquanto eu assistia. sendo um suspense, ele me mantia presa, intimamente conectada com a tensão do conflito do protagonista, ao mesmo tempo que me deixava intrigada com o que realmente aconteceu para ele chegar até aquele ponto e quantas mentiras existiam. além disso, a preocupação e a paixão pela química do casal, pensando em como queria que tudo se ligasse para aquela família poder viver verdadeiramente feliz, também ficou enclausurada em mim, esperando uma solução e recebendo ainda mais dúvidas e personagens interligados.
o enredo é muito muito bom, e misturado com a atuação consistente e enigmática dos atores, que nos entregaram uma protagonista forte e um mentiroso marginalizado, um núcleo de família aparentemente perfeito mas que escondiam vários segredos e a forma que a sociedade transforma e dita o destino de uma pessoa, mesmo que ela não tenha feito nada, por conta de julgamentos antecipados.
eles pecaram na finalização de algumas coisas, colocando alternativas fantasiosas demais para a solução de problemas, e teve um final fundamentado em uma dessas também, mas em minha opinião isso casou bem com a história e, apesar de ter terminado meio aberto, eu acredito que ele pode ter ido na direção que eu queria que fosse, dado o desenvolvimento dos protagonistas.
os personagens, como eu disse, te seguram firme na narrativas para você desvendar os seus pontos de vista, e a construção de todo esse dorama ter sido tão fantástica se deve principalmente pela construção dessas pessoas.
o vilão é muito aterrorizante, e o jeito que as relações em volta dele se desenvolvem é uma obra prima, mexe muito com a surpresa e a penas e muitos outros sentimentos.
os cenários, com uma filmografia escura e misteriosa, foram de acordo com a história, assim como a trilha sonora que, apesar de ter poucas músicas, essas tinham uma qualidade superior, e me emocionam até hoje pensando na história.
de observação final, gostaria de destacar o quão apaixonada fiquei no ator, lee joongi. além de me lembrar um kpop boy muito querido, aka zuho (sf9) (SÉRIO ELES SÃO PARENTES PRÓXIMOS, NÃO É POSSÍVEL!!!!), a atuação dele é muito boa e ele é uma bolinha de amor na vida real, mesmo sendo ariano! isso só prova que ele não deve ser real! assistir foe como o primeiro contato com ele me deixou impressões muito boas, e estou almejando assistir ainda mais performances.
também queria dizer que a experiência de assistir os episódios acompanhando o lançamento na hora com pessoas queridas foi muito legal, cheguei um pouco tarde mas foi muito bom discutir teorias e cenas e atuações com minhas amigas e eu recomendo muito assistir doramas em lançamento! agora isso se tornou um vício.

Obra extraordinária
Um drama complexo feito para bugar sua mente. Então fica a dica preste bastante atenção até nos pequenos detalhes. Tudo tão bem feito, o enredo é fascinante o roteiro expendido, atuações são incríveis. Esquece aqueles clichês nessa obra não temos pelo ao contrário temos uma obra original carregada de boa história, com suspense, ação e um lindo romance.Os protagonistas são formidáveis. Se entregaram de corpo e alma para fazer o papel você se sente conectada com eles desde o primeiro momento. A química deles é espantosa de tão boa, eles juntos é bom bom de se ver.
A protagonista Feminina é admirável, forte, alegre destemida, amorosa, inteligente, batalhadora luta pelo que acredita ser correto com unhas e dentes, uma personagem que você pode desejar ser .
O protagonista masculino é fascinante, misterioso complexo muito complexo ele te deixa confuso sobre suas intenções até quase o final do drama, ele é uma caixinha de surpresas.
Todos os personagens fazem sentido, todas as histórias são boas , todos contribuem pelo bom progresso da história. Até o vilão é bem posicionado.
Cada episódio é feito num ritmo bom você se vê mais imerso na história é viciante , esse show está entre os melhores que eu já assisti.
Em fim com certeza recomendo.

Worth watching!!
Brilliant. Gripping. Exhilarating. On the edge of my seat. Addictive. Unforgettable.I'm not the type to watch crime dramas as they tend to bore me after the 2nd episode or don't interest me enough to continue since there's a lot of repetition with specific topics. However, this series has managed to change my perspective on the genre. It continued to surprise me and I couldn't stop obsessing over how much I enjoyed it!
Holy moly where do i even start!? This is one of those dramas where you can't predict what happens next which is both frustrating and exciting at the same time. Flower of Evil gets better and better with each episode. Never once was I bored while watching this, every moment was thrilling. It exceeded my expectations and I loved every second of it!
Every scene is interesting, with each episode ending on BIG cliff hangers that get me excited for the next episodes and give me something to look forward to. The plot is well done and there are many unexpected twists throughout it, constantly keeping me on the edge of my seat and eager to see what happens next.
The two main leads are phenomenal. Lee Joongi's acting is incredible, I never doubted his skills but damn he's good! Moon Chaewon too, she performed her character very well and at times I could almost feel what she was feeling, it was that good. This is one of my all time favourite pairings in a drama, their chemistry and development is amazing!!
Even if you aren't a fan of crime, there's a high chance you'll still enjoy this one! It's got a sprinkle of everything. The story's unique and refreshing, it's fast-paced and straight to the point, very interesting, definitely recommend watching.
P.S. some scenes are a bit disturbing, just a heads up for those not into that!

" I'll like you alot from here on, I'll be good to you for real..." Moon Chae Won
IN SHORT:It's an amazing humane drama with an incredibly beautiful narrative. The dialogues are so well versed they hit right into the heart! The quiet heartwarming background piano (sometimes violin mixed too) makes the past flashbacks scenes very alluring and majestic. Those first scenes (the flashbacks) are one of my top favorite bits of each episode!
The production was the definition of perfection till the drama's last breath! Kudos to Directors, Screenwriters, Composers and Actors, especially our beloved Moon Chae Won and LEE JOON GI. They did an outstanding job bringing the characters to life, Do Hyun Su's character was an especially hard one to pull, he truly deserves much love!
IN LENGTH:
The story takes it's time to develop the characters in the first few episodes, and the situation quickly escalates! You'll be surprised how much you're invested by the time the tragic strings of events begin!
The plot is about one man who wants to find the meaning of happiness for once, after dress rehearsing tragedy, in his entire life before! And a woman who wants such happiness for the man she is head over heels in love with!
After turning over his life, 18 years later in the present, he is pretty much what a perfect husband is expected to be! Doing too well to say! Everything is about to get ruined by a sudden turn of event that leads to uncovering his past! which seems to be filled up with misfortunes in more than one way!
The drama takes it's time to develop the main characters in present, while hinting about what could have happened in the past without giving too much spoiler early to fuel our adrenaline secretion, then suddenly we are thrown back to the past to only realize what actually is important is not what we were looking forward to the most! It's a whole different disheartening story that takes a creative take on self-inflicted misery, taking blame, and finding a middle ground for one's well being and happiness!
Acting is top notch! Lee Joon Gi as Baek Hee Seong is top notch! He looks totally dependable, manly and more than anything, a lovely dad! Whereas portraying Do Hyun Su couldn't be better executed! He looks so much younger now, and has a gaze that says the world about him, adorable and painfully cool in his yellow hair style!
Moon Chae Won is doing wonder with her acting! She has the kind of shaky, mellow voice that has emotions breathing out while she talks! She is an amazing actress who wonderfully fills the role of a very caring strong woman, Cha Ji Won, seeking happiness above all else for her family! She looks beautiful and mature, it's always great to see her again in a new drama!
I'm just gonna say! the music is just too perfect! From the incredibly suspenseful tracks "Flower of Evil" and "Switched Destiny" to the melo tracks "Upcoming Shadow" "Hard Relationship" to my most favorite track in this album "Cherry Blossom Kiss" which starts weird, mysterious and full of anxiety and emptiness, then it paces up to a sweeter tone then a more joyful and bright tone, which goes perfectly with Do Hyun Soo's character journey within the drama
We also have the feel nostalgic poetic piano track "Someone to Be Remembered" by Jung Se Rin (I noticed he has also composed the unbelievably beautiful track "When Mind Wants to Rest" from Naui Ahjussi)
There are only three songs on the entire album. (One of them "Psycho" by DOKO, being used only as an ending theme for the episodes and it's very catchy and goes well with the epic clifhangers.)
I have to say the remaining two are the most beautiful songs released in a drama this year! They aren't ever overused and it only plays when you really start to crave a song! They have that kinda impact!
"Feel You" by Shin Yong Jae is one of those two songs and it really deserves all the awards! Mark my words! An unexpressed love confession with lyrics beautifully wording out the feelings he has no idea sorting out for himself!
The melody is especially sad yet thrilling and makes our heart skipping beats! You can't tell what it exactly makes you feel, probably to reflect how Hyun Su can't distinguish between his own emotions, even in those moments his heart races like he is in pain!
"In My Heart" by LIM YEON is also a wonderful love poem, describing what Ji Won is feeling towards Hyun Su, and how even if her heart comes crashing down, she will face it, as long as it's love, she will be there, for her love!
I would probably re-watch this drama many times! It's that good. Tho the mystery element will be gone, it still has lots of suspense and drama to enjoy.
Highly recommended for fans of psychological thrillers and those who enjoy subtle romance plot-lines! A Must Watch Definitely.

NEXT LEVEL masterpiece
I absolutely have no words if you really haven't watched it yet or even considered. This drama is hands down the best kdrama of the year.Acting:
NEXT LEVEL. I remember Moon Chae Won from her ''Innocent Guy'' Days and her performance back then was already good, but her performance in this drama. I am speechless, maybe she's even the best actress I know. You really feel with her when she's sad or happy and how she just acts every scene like SPOT ON and really cries with her heart, as if she's going thru herself (even heard she lost some weight throughout the episodes because she really was into her role). QUEEN. I hope that she gets more recognition and good roles because GURL SHE CAN ACT!!!
Lee Joon Gi was also very outstanding as the female lead. I was baffled how well he played his role since it is so difficult to have those cold eyes but idk happy aura with you. Furthermore was the FL and he really on one acting level, they weren't actors who played the role. THEY WERE THEIR ROLE.
And then Baek Hee Sung. Wow. Just WOW. I was sincerely really scared of him. Especially when he killed his maid. I was just sitting there, my hands covering my mouth and motionless. He was so good, that I cannot even imagine him being kinda normal. This role was so perfect for him and the directors couldn't get anyone better for the role.
I cannot praise the cast enough, because it was such an outstanding performance! The cast was perfectly and carefully selected. They didn't choose anyone who couldn't act or wasn't on this drama's level. HECK, even Baek Hee Sung's parents were so good like I legit cried at the ending scene (ep.16) when the dad went nuts.
Story:
Normally I'm really not into Thrillers and Mystery. I'm a sucker for romance, but the storyline got me hooked from episode one and I just couldn't stop watching. No plot hole, no questions, straight-up genius, and well-thought drama. It is a drama for everyone. Thriller, Mystery, Drama, and Love.
Music:
BEAUTIFUL. It matched perfectly the drama's vibe and intensified some scenes very well. Even just listening to 'Shin Yong Jae - 'Feel You'' makes my heart feel so painful. HONESTLY. Song with emotion and pain.
Rewatch Value:
I don't like to rewatch dramas, but I'd do an exception for this one.
All in all, it is just outstanding. No other words. OUTSTANDING. People watch this drama and do yourself a favor. I don't even understand why this drama didn't skyrocket when it was as good as The World of the Married. SIGHHH. But well nevermind. Both amazing

"Even where the evil has been buried, flowers can still bloom" Writer Yoo Jung Hee
One thing I love about this drama is the pace. Up to episode 11, I was so shook all the things I predicted that will happen has already happened, and as I watched more episodes, I realised how they didn't seem to drag a single thing! And I feel like that's really different to other kdramas. After episode 11, all the emotions just began piling up together. The audience felt, nervous, thrilled, angry, shocked, sad and happy. I remember how many times I started to cry at this point and I don't even remember the last time I cred to a drama too!I also keep saying this numerous times but this drama is just phenomenal. It's so unique. So beautiful. A masterpiece. There is so much good content yet they structured everything so neatly! Just perfect! I love every single character, even the guy who played as the villain. I gotta say, they have the most admirable female lead ever - she shows professionalism, care, patience, love, compassion, embracement. And the male lead! Initially, he's so complicating to understand but over time, we realise how special and genuine of a person he is. He doesn't understand feelings but he can still feel them. Feelings play a big role in his character. Together, they make a beautiful and extraordinary couple.
Oh and it gets better.
The actors/actresses portrayed their character soooo well, it's crazy how talent everyone is. I always thought Lee Joon Gi (hyunso/heesung) was amazing but this drama just made me realize that all over again. Also, I never really noticed Moon Chae Won (jiwon) but here, she did exceptionally well. I could feel the motherliness in her.
The most beautiful yet unique love story I've ever encountered out of my 5 years watching kdrama . Even if you don't like romantic or crime stories, I bet you'll get touched by this one.

Wow, is all I can say.
Thriller/Mystery drama's are not something I watch often, but when I do, it takes a lot for me to commit and do it and when I do; I hope that it's worth it. It's been a while since I've watched a mind blowing K-Drama to be honest and I can say that I didn't know what I was getting into when I started Flower of Evil, but I saw a clip and immediately I was sucked in to something I will never regret watching in my entire life.The synopsis in itself is already a rollercoaster, even though this is similar to a lot of other mystery/thriller/crime dramas; you don't really know you'll be invested into something even more mind blowing and emotionally tolling. You have a man that's the perfect husband, father, worker. You have a woman that's the perfect wife, mother and partner in general. They are both hard working, they met randomly by fate one day and the rest is history, their love is absolutely mind blowing and just plain...impeccable. But the male lead has a past, an unknown one. And unfortunately sometimes, you can't run away forever, especially when your demons are not only haunting you mentally, but then they start doing so physically. So you're going to go through what it's like to love someone but want to protect them no matter what happens, you're going to see that some people will go to the end to protect their own even though it's putting themselves on the line, you're going to see what it's like to be abandon by those who love you most and what it's like to be looked at like a monster. There' s so many ups and downs in this show but it's one of the best journey's I've completely been on. The love they had was wonderful, the characters that helped, the officer team, everything was just a nice flow of things.
Let me tell you, this is one of the best acting I've seen in such a long time. I love the raw emotions you got to witness between every single character; but you're taking so many veteran actors and actresses and putting them into something that they made just pure genius. The emotion and control that Lee Jong Gi has is amazing, the strong, bold character that Moon Chae Won played and the CHEMISTRY the two had, is absolutely everything. There was a prefect balance of their love and the show. The daughter was a fantastic aspect. The bad characters were so good at being bad. The reporter was a nice spice; the sister being added into the twist. The way the detective team carried themselves; if this show doesn't win rewards for the story, the ACTING will for sure win something.
The music was wonderful, I loved the timing that they had. I'm obsessed with the OST that Shin Yong Jae put together for this; everything about it is beautiful, raw and emotional all in one and that's how this show will leave you feeling.
Overall, this show was amazing. It's worth watching and rewatching within seconds. I actually binged this show and woke up just to rewatch the last 2 episodes because I couldn't get enough. The ending was quite bittersweet but I felt the craziest thing while watching it and I've never watched a show where I was so satisfied with the 2nd to last episode that I couldn't stopped there. I was literally so satisfied how this show played out and where it went that I'm absolutely mind blown at this beautiful master piece. My heart ached with the emotions of the characters, I cried and was angry all in one. And that's what a good drama is. One that you cannot stop thinking of and that was this for me. This really made me realize how much I love watching Asian Dramas in general. This was so good.

A drama definitely not for binge-watching.
I started watching this drama with high expectations because of all the comments, hype, and high rating. That’s where I made the mistake; from the first episode, it started feeling unsatisfactory. But yet, it was intriguing and baiting enough to watch more.The acting and cast was all very well chosen and performed. It’s the only thing I do not have any comments about. They executed their roles, expressions, behaviors in quite an admirable manner.
On the other side, the characteristics/personalities of the characters were also well initially built except for that of the FL, I can say. In general, for all the characters, I didn’t see development, they really were walking around in circles. I felt especially frustrated with the FL and how much she kept going back and forth about her trust and belief. It’s as if she is the one that doesn’t love her husband, and is ready to give him up for a given reason. They tried to push the idea that she only believes what she sees in front of her, but it doesn’t justify anything. She cannot just base her judgement on what she saw at that moment, and forget the past 10 years. Even if he had lied to her about his identity, she should know how he was at first, and all the change he went through. She must know that he was being himself and not hiding his “true nature”.
Another aspect that I found problematic is the plot. In fact, to me it was the most problematic. From small incidents, to the bigger events, everything felt awfully coincidental, exaggerated and too pushed. Not just that, but very predictable also (starting from around episode 6). I somehow was not surprised by anything. The writer just somehow cannot step out of (successful) examples in drama history, and they only make the incidents in an advantageous way, in a way to continue to the story as planned, not in a rational or consistent manner at all. It is a big jumble of all what makes a drama mainstream.
To give an example, the first episode, after the ML had the reporter locked up in the basement. The scene where our man was serving breakfast, setting up the table. The wife comes, she tries to help but no she isn’t good enough. She tries to take care of her daughter, but the daughter preferred the father. That was already a lot to see, but to make the thriller meter go up and worry us all, she very randomly and spontaneously chose to go downstairs to clean. She goes into the room with no tools, with no plan, just starts walking aimlessly and looking around until she finds the piece of ceramic from the broken pot. They did not even bring it up again later, so it was an unnecessary incident. She was soon taken up again by her husband because the fact is, the breakfast is served and the there are zero reasons why she should be cleaning the workshop at that moment.
That was what first scene that bothered me, and at the end, they couldn’t avoid the overly used trope of partial or selective memory loss. Once again, I find it very unnecessary. FL was looking for the same person, and even the ML himself said he wants to look for the same person again, so what are we left with? No change. He could’ve changed slightly anyways after all they went through, it would be more realistic after he felt the huge amount of emotions upon learning of her death. They built up so much, they made them go through cruel circumstances, so why delete it all? Why destroy that and make them begin again in an awkward state?
Along with these points, I felt like slow motion in the cinematography or the physical slow motion, long-ass stares and silent moments of pondering were excessive. Before anything slightly important happens, there is a lost minute (that I would skip skip skip). If all the reactions are unrealistic, the mind cannot accept it.
With all these thoughts, I believe my high expectations could have made the drama fall short, but the points I pointed out surely made it boring. It would’ve been more digestible to watch one episode a week.

Not that great
The drama has definitely surprised me by turning out rather average. It is not a bad one to be sure but it is not great, nor mind blowing nor even that intense. It is mainly quite mellow for a thriller and way too melodramatic. The plot is not original, full of inconsistances and uses the same old cliches like coma, amnesia, bad guy is actually an angel inside and so on. But more then that the script is poorly thought out, not enough attention given to details and too many times the scripwriter takes the easiest way to create conflicts and not even tries to give any sort of explanation. For example the story behind the serial murders happened in the past is very sketchy and for the most part ridiculously unbelieveble. Like the story about humantraffikers or a person kept in an asylum for 15 years without any purpose whatsoever except to serve as a poorly made plot twist. Or the MLs parents' motivation to conceal the truth about the ML is what exactly?The leads are both missed opportunities. The ML is first shown cold and calculating and having problems with emoting. However it lasts for like 2-3 episodes and the other 13 episodes he spends being a big crybaby and getting beaten, tortured and framed by everyone. The FL, in theory the most conflicted charater of the drama, is actually the most bland one. She is defined only by her love for her husband and her unending cycles of trusting-not trusting him. Perhaps if more time and effort was put into her being thorn between her duty as a police officer and her feelings for the husband she would have been interesting. But alas she is a total letdown
The melodramatic part about the main couple's struggles is problematic for me as well. It is so syropy and forced. The beginning of their relationship shown in flashback gives weird vibes as the FL comes across a classic stalker who is forcing herself on the ML while he clearly and vehemently says he is not interested. She insists because (in her own words) she sees in his eyes that he loves her. Not very romantic really. Again it could have been a touching story if given more details and shown more subtly.
Now to the good part.
Lee Joon Gi 's acting is great (no surprise here).
Also I liked a lot the reporter friend of the ML. The most believable and realistic character. Sometimes weak and full of fear, sometimes brave, trying to do his best but still commiting mistakes and feeling guilt, passionate about his profession. And what a great portrayal by the actor, especially the way he shows love for the ML sister. So very sweet.
The serial killer is also great. Very scary indeed.
They should have made him appear earlier in the drama, because the evil doers in the first half are somewhat boring.
The little girl is adorable.
Nice OST. Sinister background music is especially good.
Rewatch value is zero for me
