Jesus, it's so funny reading the negative comments and reviews. This is why this drama is a great representation. People are lazy, don't pay attention to little things, and only care about the surface. And they blame the writers because they didn't spell out everything for them.🤣 You can see that most KDrama fans are so used to the typical happy endings and basic stuff. Also, congrats for proving how toxic fans can be. That's kind of the whole message of the show.

P.S.: If you don't like the show because you didn't understand the ending, it's not the writer's fault. PAY ATTENTION to the details, like their clothes, and DON'T SKIP THE INTROS AND OUTROS! If you don't skip any of them, you're going to get a MUCH BETTER experience.

If people don't pay attention, won't understand too much about this show. If you pay attention, you're going to love the show, especially if you love REALISTIC drama. This show was refreshing for sure.

I hope it's going to be more than 9 episodes because it's really short. There has to be a Part 2 someday because I don't think 9 episodes is enough to adapt the whole story well enough.

I wouldn't say Flower of Evil is a masterpiece, but it's certain that one of the best drama, and I watched hundreds of crime shows and movies. BTW I agree on the finale. I hated that typical lazy writing with the cliché part that you mentioned. That's why I only rated 9/10 because that's what I hate the most, it was totally unnecessary. But other than that, it was a great show. But I still think it's not a real crime show, it's more like a family drama and in that, it's one of the best.

I don't think the person who made this list understand that overrated and overhyped is not the same thing. First: on MDL most people love to give 9 or 10 points for everything, especially if one of the actor on the show is their favorite, cute, sexy etc. So you can't say these shows are overrated because people don't overrate them because they think it's that good, they doing it, because most people don't know how to rate something. Second: Overhyped isn't equal with overrated. Overhyped, means you can hear about them everywhere. 90% of this list isn't like that at all.

That's why I hate lists like this. People think just because they don't like something is overrated or overhyped. Also, they think, just because they love a show it's perfect, masterpiece etc. Everyone have a different taste, so the ratings means nothing, especially because 90% of the users doesn't write any review about the shows they watched, so you can't understand why they rated them 10/10 for example.

Obviously, I didn't watch every Kdrama on this list, but the only overhyped show here is probably 'Squid Game', but even that I can understand why it's overhyped. It's like Game of Thrones. It's not the best show on Earth, but probably one of the best.

I don't think it's fair to compare this to A Business Proposal because ABP was a genre parody basically. I agree about what you said, but for me, it was refreshing tbh, because I'm fed up with the same story with the poor girl dating a billionaire guy. They're usually stretching this type of story for until the finale. I hate when they do that, maybe that's I liked this version more, because it felt more real or new. It was a typical feelgood, slice of life show basically where nothing big happens, and I'm a sucker for that tbh. I don't like the overdramatized stories for just the sake of it. But one thing's for sure, there wasn't any proper conflicts, could've been with the sister, but they ignored that too.

I know everything about the real history of the story. Most of it is true and a lot of it just fantasy, basically. That wasn't my point, btw. Me not liking the finale has nothing to do with the real history. I don't care if a show has a happy ending or a sad ending. All I want is a consistent writing and the fact is that they rushed the finale. The ending wasn't build up, it ended like in a heartbeat, and I hate when writers do that. Also, the daughter is still a mystery, so everything that happened to her and her lover is a FICTION! And THAT'S why I said they could've done a much better finale. Sure, they can't kill off the King (tbh I would do that because why not? This is a KDrama not a documentary) I can understand that, but we don't know much about Seung Yoo and Se Ryung and their REAL relationship and how it ended.

Honestly, IF they would've built up the ending 2 or 3 episodes before the finale, I wouldn't have any problem with the show.

WOW! Finally, watched a KDrama that isn't depressing as hell and the ending wasn't ruined. I can't believe it first, but in the penultimate episode they got me for a sec with THAT ending.🤣 That's rarely happening to me after watching more than 500 TV shows and more than 2000 movies. So, props to the writers. Well done!👏 BTW, is it me or this drama is almost the same as the Business Proposal?

I'm not saying she didn't, I loved her character too, easily one of the best written female character, especially in historical dramas. I love the show too, my only problem is the finale. I don't get it why they "always" ruining the last episode in almost every drama. It was almost perfect till the finale. Also, I agree, she didn't have anyone who helped her for a very long time. I just think Da Hee for me is more relatable, because she was a nobody basically, and that's why I think she suffered more because she didn't have any options. In the other hand, Se Ryung could just leave like she did in the last couple of episodes. That's my other problem with the show, but we could say this about basically every KDrama. If she leaves, there's no issue.😅

I'm not trying to hate the show, btw, I'm just being honest and fair. I won't give a show good ratings just because I love Moon Chae Won for example. I gave it 8/10 overall, that's a pretty good rating in my opinion. Like I said, my biggest problem with the show is that they wanted to finish everything in the last episode, like in many other KDrama, and I hate that. Also, I really don't like the ending because it doesn't make sense at all! For like 20 episodes, he wanted revenge, he was there, he could've killed the King, but he was an idiot, so he almost died and the only reason why he didn't because he was a main lead. Not to mention how much I hated when and how they killed off Jong. Also, the worst part in the finale is that the King literally became a "nice" person for just the sake of the happy end. Not to mention the fact that their friends doesn't even know that they're not dead. That was really irritating and unnecessary!

Sure, but that's "just" emotional suffering. She could've just move on and forget everything. Nobody would hurt her if she wouldn't leave her family. SPOILER FROM HERE if you didn't watch the show!!!

In Hur Jun, Da Hee was an average woman who did everything for her husband and she was tortured too because of him but still stayed with him till he died. In my eyes, her suffering is harder because she didn't have anyone except her husband, his mother, and their son.

This show is THE prime example that if you're a good writer, you can make a typical cliché story much better. My only problem with this show is that it's too short. There should be a 2nd season because like many other Kdrama the finale was a mess. Too many unfinished stories and so many were finished in 2 minute. Also, the Drama in the Drama part was my favorite, probably. That's what made the whole cliché story better, because it's not a typical romcom because they literally made fun of their own show, so it's more like a parody.

Also, Da Hee in 'Hur Jun, The Original Story 2013'. She was even better female lead because she wasn't a Queen or a Princess, so she had to suffer way more.

Why they always ruin a great show in the finale?

Alleged rapist! The woman dropped all charges, so he's innocent.

I have a huge talent to find the most depressing shows. And the frustrating ones too.😅

Here's an artice for people who think living on an Island for 15 years is unrealistic, nonsense or else. https://www.boaterexam.com/blog/real-castaways

Honestly? I would love to live on an island till I die. You can only get mental problems from other people.😂 So it 100% make sense that she's not crazy. Also, we have only seen short teasers, so you can't know what's going to happen on the show. Stop guessing. Also, she always wanted to be a singer, not after she spent 15 years on an island. People tend to forget that not everyone is the same. What I don't get is why people trying to find realism in Kdrama's. It's a fiction, not a documentary.

Also, you should read this: https://www.boaterexam.com/blog/real-castaways/

So your only problem is that she's looking good? You know, it's not hard to make weapons and stuff. People think they would die in a situation like this but trust me they wouldn't. Like I said, you don't need much to survive. You can eat fish and other animals or food. She's probably having her own clothes too. There's literally zero reason to want reality in ANY KDrama, all of them are fairy tales basically. Well, 98% of them. If you think the Cast Away movie was realistic, think again. Also, we don't know anything. You're making an opinion based on a couple of pictures. We only assume things so far. Wait till we see the whole show. I'm pretty sure it won't all fun and games for her on that island.

Are you kidding? How is it ridiculous? You never watched the Cast Away movie? It's literally the same story except Tom Hanks' character wasn't a diva.🤣

Lot of people still live on an island, some tribes for example. It's not like you can't find food or water, there's a lot. You don't need to eat homemade food to survive. Also, there's the ocean, so she can bathe any time.😅

In the real world, millions of people hardly eat anything because they're broke and don't use any cosmetics. Nowadays, people think you can't survive a singe day without the tech, fast food, a make-up and nice cloths. 🤣
