Female Vigilante
Just like watching Mr. Queen, I did not look into any reviews about Knight Flower. I just got intrigued again by the drama title.
Some would say that they irked at the thought of casting a much older woman and partnered with a very young male lead. Well, the story actually calls for that. I actually tried to compute the age since the FL was about to get married at the same time the ML lost his family when he was a young boy. So perhaps the FL was around 18-22 years old then and the ML maybe around 10 yrs old. Fifteen years later, we can assume the FL maybe in her 30s and the ML in his early 20s.
Anyways, I believe the casting director took note of this, so I think it is not a miscast.
Lee Ha Nee did a great job living a double life. It is amazing how she remained undetected by her mother-in-law having a Ninja-like skills. I love it when women in this kind of era are presented not as powerless or just submit to the order of society, but as one who can make her own decision and fight injustice.
Lee Jon Won has a very expressive face. I think his role fits him well and though young was never intimidated.
For me the 12 episodes is good for the whole story, though the last episode seemed rush for me. Can this one have a season 2?
