i am usually not a fan of korean crime/detective dramas since the characters often do something unrealistic and idiotic. yet, ‘Flower of Evil’ really had me sitting on the edge of my seat.

the story after Jiwon started being suspicious of her husband was full of suspense. it was fun seeing Do Hyeon Su lying to her while on the other end of the line, she already knew his real identity. i was extremely curious about his reaction when he finally realised that Jiwon knew his secret, and that scene didn’t disappoint me at all! the amount of emotions that both Lee Jun Ki and Moon Chae Won delivered during that scene was incredible.

however, after the real Baek Hee Seong woke up, the story dragged on imo, and i found myself skipping most of Baek Hee Seong’s parts (probably because i despised his parents).

overall, it was an enjoyable drama. i, however, will not rewatch it due to the fact that the fun of watching this drama lies in not knowing Do Hyeon Su’s secrets, hence the two out of 10 rewatch value.
