Very addictive!
I started watching the series while its on going and i have to say its really hard! Waiting every week for an episode then something suspenseful happened but you have to wait a week to know what really happened. The stoy was indeed very unique I haven’t seen any story or drama like Flower of Evil. The actors and actress’ chemistry was great too! I mean well Lee JoonGi never disappoints! I also love the OST especially DOKO’s Psycho!! The song is really great it matches the show’s theme. The reason my rewatch value is low because i think knowing the story is okay already don’t feel like you can keep on watching it again and again.Was this review helpful to you?
A 10/10 masterpiece
Finally finished Flower Of Evil and what a great drama it was. Amazing story, suspense and cliffhangers in every episodes. The amount of goosebumps I got is uncountable. Lee joon gi and Moon chae won did an amazing job and also the lil one. Everyone acted so well + The chemistry between leads, their love & trust for each other. The father-daughter relationship was so heartwarming. The way Lee joon gi portrayed his role, the development of his character hyun so, from unable to Express feelings to start caring for someone, loving someone.Joon gi portrayed so realistically, Moon chae won as ji won was equally incredible, she had a major role in hyun so's development. I couldn't hold tears seeing her crying and being emotional. Osts are good too. I cried a river in last two eps. The Climax 😭😭overall, it was a masterpiece for me. It's 10/10 drama. would recommend everyone who haven't watched yet. It's a must watch🥺💚Was this review helpful to you?
A true drama
This is one of the best shows I have watched. I remained on the edge of my seat. I wondered what was coming next and I believed in him as much as his wife did. I could not say one bad thing about this and I could say a million good things and it would not be enough. This was a roller coaster of emotion. I will watch it again since I am reading the subtitles and I find that I always watch something I really love and see things I missed the first time. I have watched some programs 4-5 times gaining a better understanding each time by picking up on things I did not see initially. This will definitely be one of those. This should become a national treasure and I look forward to seeing more works with the cast in it. Indeed there could be more series of this. Great job done by any and everyone that did the smallest to the greatest thing in producing the MASTERPIECE.Shebomb7

a promise unfulfilled
it started strong with a strong smart female lead. the ending did not deliver. it was not befitting of a thriller nor of a drama. the show lost itself by the end. nothing was done with a lot of the characters especially the secondary ones like those from the village. the father’s arc was rushed and without conclusion. the main villain was kind of a caricature of a serial killer no depth nor intention. Ji won who invested so much in her work was ready to throw it out. their daughter was neglected. could you spare me the amnesia.Was this review helpful to you?

Lee Joon Gi Oppa!!
I really like the character played by Lee Joon Gi here.. he really is the definition of don't judge a book by its cover. Lots of unexpected plot twists. throughout the story we are only made suspicious of the main character. because of the appearance of the main character who is cold, mysterious, and seems manipulative... an ordinary person like me must also suspect him.for Lee Joon Gi Oppa.. I saw him for the first time in this drama and I really like him. how shocked i was when i saw it in real life. he really is a very different person. in the real world, he is a good person who is very passionate and cheerful.

A Unique Thriller That Will have You Instantly Hooked!
What I liked:The drama, especially the first few episodes, are incredibly fast paced with a large cast of interesting and well written characters. (My favorite was the reporter played by Seo Hyun Woo, who provided excellent comic relief throughout the drama and turned out to be surprisingly layered) Though some plot points were somewhat predictable, there were definitely certain twists that I did not see coming. The acting was all very well done, Lee Joon Ki's performance in particular really stood out. I also enjoyed the little flashbacks to the main couple's past that they showed at the beginning of each episode, showing how their relationship first developed. I can say for sure that those who are interested in the romance and relationship between the main couple will definitely be unable to stop watching this drama. The OST was also amazing and perfectly used, especially "Feel You" Shin Yong Jae, which brings back all the emotions I felt watching FOE whenever I listen to it! :)
What I didn't like:
Personally, I was more invested in the side characters' stories than the relationship between the main couple. It felt very predictable and almost 'too perfect'. I also felt that the story dragged in the middle and introduced a very unnecessary plot line towards the end. I do appreciate how the ending isn't exactly the typically expected unrealistically perfect ending, though it does wrap up most of the stories well enough. Though it might just be due to my lack of connection with the main characters, I found myself getting bored and even dozing off during some of the later episodes.
Overall Verdict:
If you're a fan of thrillers and/or the main actors, you should definitely watch this drama. The plot and twists are very well organized, and mostly logical, so you won't have to worry about suspending your disbelief too much or ignoring large plot holes. There is also some comedy sprinkled throughout, with the relationships between the police detectives, and Reporter Kim Mu Jin. The characters are also very easy to either root for or hate, making for a decently enjoyable watch.

literally flawless
watch this drama. it’s tear jerking, joyful, seat gripping, nail biting- quite literally everything.i enjoy the plot- it’s complicated but perfectly understandable- it’s smart and well thought out. it lacks unnecessary aspects that other dramas have, instead every part of it is perfect. it isn’t rushed and instead goes at the perfect pace. the acting is amazing, specifically that of the leads. every character plays a perfect role and there are no loose ends hanging about. the depiction of the male leads development is incredibly detailed and realistic and his personality is definitively shown through his words and actions. this drama is just incredibly well done and it’s high ranking is well warranted. when i started watching this drama i didn’t expect it to be so good but in eventuality this is a drama you can watch at your own pace but your experience will be the same: you’ll find it to be one of the best dramas you’ve ever watched. i know i do!

It started off a bit slow and at first, I was like, "okay, I will just watch the rest later". And when I kept watching it got so interesting that I ended up finishing almost 2 days. This show is a rollercoaster honestly. You get happy, then get mad, and then be sad and start crying. To be honest, this was one of the best crime dramas I have watched in a while after penthouse ended. I wasn't bored and it didn't feel like it was being dragged at all. I just wish I knew this drama sooner or could've been my first k-drama.
The acting was really good! I really loved everyone's acting. The chemistry between the two.. was just WOW! Everything was just so good. This is my first time watching a drama with lee joon-gi in it and I knew I would love his acting so much so I tried it out. Actually, I saw his cameo in hotel del luna and I wished he was in more episodes but unfortunately, he was only a cameo. I would definitely rewatch this drama. I don't regret spending my time watching this, it was really good! I think it would be really hard for me to move on from this drama.
IF YOU LOVE CRIME OR IF YOU WANT TO TRY A CRIME DRAMA THIS IS IT!

This drama is wonderful, at first I admit that I don't like it, as the story progresses, I love it.It made me cry, I was held in high suspense by the killer but oks.
I think the protagonists did a great job, making such a lovely family he was a too complete husband.I died of tenderness to see him taking care of the baby with so much care
The protagonist made me a little angry but the truth had her reasons
I think the journalist gave him that air of humor out of everything
Well anyway I stayed trapped.
The end was wonderful a total work of art

Every humans have the flower of evil. Psychopaths are the ones who nurture their flower.
ΦΦΦ"Psychopaths."
What comes to your mind when you hear this psychology term?
A person who is unable to feel emotions or empathy. A person who is can easily manipulate others for their benefit. A person who is less human. Serial killer. Fucked up personality.
Etc. Etc.
It is known that psychopaths are those who are feared and abhorred by everyone. They are bad news, and should be avoided.
Why? Because they can't feel emotions. They won't emphathise with anyone.
But, psychopaths are still human.
They bleed like us. They can get hurt like us(emotionally). Even they have the ability to love. They can be sad, angry, jealous, guilty.
This society has a great prejudice against psychopaths. It isn't necessary that every psychopaths will be a murderer. No! Even they can lead a normal life like everybody else.
This is what the drama: "The flower of evil" shows us, magni-fucking-ficently!
The story is just great. Truly a masterpiece! The characters are so relateable, the setting perfect and the actors have done a mind blowing job. Hats off to them!
This drama just has everything fucking thing. You name it; Romance, Drama, Action, Mystery, Suspense, Thriller.
It will make you laugh, make you feel wholesome, then shock you with a twist, keep you guessing on the edge of your seats, completely take you by surprise and then leave you with heart warming but tear jerking moments.
(Now that you have read this review. I really appreciate it. So now GO AND WATCH THIS DRAMA.)

Probably going to be my new fav kdrama for a while
I haven't watched that many Kdrama titles but the storyline of "Flower of Evil" seemed really interesting so I decided to watch this series. I did consider dropping this series because it revolves around murder and death, and I haven't been too well mentally so some scenes made me a little bit uncomfortable. However, I figured that it wasn't too dark, plus I couldn't really stop watching because the plot was so interesting haha.I have mixed feelings regarding the ML. He's a character that I want to love, but so many things keep holding me back. I did like how his character developed, but I think there were some inconsistencies here and there, but nothing too major that threw me off.
My favorite character is the FML. I know some people found her annoying because she cried a lot but instead of being annoyed, I pitied her. If I was in her position, I don't think I would've done what she did, not gonna lie. Her love for her husband really touched my heart; sometimes I wonder if people can really love as much as she did.
The storyline was pretty intense and there were a lot of foreshadowing. I was confused for a long time but eventually, things started to fall into place. This drama made me scream and cry a lot hahaha. I am a huge fan of melodrama and I really enjoyed this one.
