Simply Amazing

"Flower of Evil" is simply one of the best shows I have watched to this date. This sounds very biased but if at the end of the show, if they went thier seperate ways I wouldv'e given this show a 9.5 and not a 10. That's how much I wanted a good ending and thank the heavens I got what I wanted. This drama is literally everything I couldv'e want in a kdrama; I love the whole ML is a "Evil" charcater and he slowly shows himself to someone close to him, also the whole suspense part hits every point it should do in a suspense thriller. This is personally my favourite Suspense Triller show, it even has romace between the two main characters in which just adds to the dynamics of this drama.

When I first saw the drama's synopsis it basically shouted my name since this is my type of kdrama, also it has my favourite female actress as the main female Moon Chae Won in which i was patiently waiting for another drama from her and here I got it.

First off Do Hyun Soo, in which in my opinion is the most complex character in this show. He had a horible past which atributed to his Anti Personality Disorder and also the people around him. I've realised after watching this and another drama similar to this called "Come and Hug Me" in which the ML father is a pyschopath like Hyun Soo's father that both fathers tried to make thier son just like them calling them a piece of art and tried to mold them to however they want. But in both dramas they both get saved by the girl that they love. In Hyun Soo's case it was a bit more complicated than just "Love" but he instinctivly loved Cha Ji Won even if he didn't realise it and even if he said he didn't love her because he believes that he doesn't know the feeling of love so he can't know if he feels it. Halfway through the show when his identity was found out and he had that breakdown that he would have to leave Ji Win, we see him cry for the first time and I had to search online can people with ASPD cry and it seems that they can feel sadness in a way. Due to him have enhanced cognitive abilities, he can read peoples emotions and this is how he never had fights with Ji Won because she would detect if she was feeling anoyed an knew exactly what she wants.

Cha Ji Won was all I couldv'e asked for in a FL, and also she was played by the amazing Moon Chae Won in which I want to watch her future dramas and any work she does. Ji Won as a character was a very straightforward person as she insisted that Hyun Soo liked her and put her feelings out there, but this was a trait I actually like because it meant that they had no misunderstandings. In a way she is very naive and a bit dumb because when she first met him she didn't realise the fact he was a bit wierd and also his past that he described to her. You could say that "Love" blinded her senses and made her just see the man infront of her. Even when she found out that Hee Seong was Hyun Soo she still believed him with what he said which just shows how much she loves him and wants to trust him.

Ji Won and Hyun Soo's child is literally so cute and when we see the 3 of them hug at the end of the show, it made me cry tears of hapiness which I can't remember the last time I felt that.

This might be the first time to where I trully liked the antogonist, not liked in the fact I rooted for him, but liked in the fact he was a good enemy for Hyun Sooand Ji Won. He was very meticulous with himself to the point he was in control of his parents and was quite samrt but his downfall was that he was stuck in 2005 and didn't realise that technology has advanced and got caught on a dash cam. Hyun Soo's father is also a big character in this show even if he wasn't shown much, this was because he had such a big impact in Hyun Soo to the point Hyun Soo would see him even after he died and be kind of controlled for a bit.

The OST in this show was literally so good, I love when dramas have only a few OST and all 3 are so good, they all have different vibes in the fact they all carry different emotions which can carry a scene and just make you sucked into the world.

Overall this show is so good and you should watch it no matter what your tastes are because this drama will give you a new breath of fresh air as I belive thier is not a show like this ( Well besides "Come and Hug Me" in which had similar cases with the pyshopath father and the son who isn't "normal" but get saved by people they love). If there really is a show like this please tell me and I would love to watch it.
