Great premise, actors, music, atmosphere. But I agree with the comments that the FL just didn't deliver. I wouldn't have minded that the story is simple/same-old-same-old, but the FL was just... meh. Complicating every situation, not very skilled at fighting, not very bright either... I mean her behaviour is realistic, I probably wouldn't behave any different, but I'm not watching thrillers for realism. She was honestly more of a badass when she was a child. And I get that not every character has to be a badass, but the has literally zero going for her. She was constantly being saved by everyone. Some of it was due to her uncle not preparing her at all - but based on the first episodes, I thought he did! Also, the way that she was left out of the last episodes (which focused on her uncle) made her even more forgettable. It's a shame honestly. Made me even more aware of all the plotholes (why didn't Brother lock the house from the beginning and let her in through the secret entrance)...
I'm sorry, what? I just came from AvenueX video and they are shooting spinoff drama on Sang Yan's story WITHOUT VICTOR MA? He would be the only reason why I'd watch it. Smh.
A thing that doesn't get mentioned enough - Knight Flower beat Red Sleeve's record of highest MBC fri-sat drama WITH ONLY 12 EPISODES! Red Sleeve had 17, so like 2 weeks of airtime more? I don't wish to compare, but it's such an accomplishment, but it didn't even make an article on MDL... Crazy how much under the radar this drama went for international audience. But thanks to that, this comment section has been super nice and cozy, even if someone comments that they didn't enjoy the show as much as others, we can just agree that we have different tastes. And no one is getting defensive about others' criticism, we can just discuss it instead of calling it hate.
Although I'm not much of a rewatcher, cause there are so many new series to discover, I feel that this series will become my staple for rewatching in the future. So good I could praise it whole day long, but I have to go back to reality unfortunately 😆
I'm at my rewatch and one scene grabbed my attention: in ep 9, SJ tries to get to room where YH is, in search of Grand Merchant, but she resists. Ultimately SH is the one who enters. This is reminiscent of the scene in earlier episodes, when she hid in the closet and SH makes her fall out of it after a struggle. I know it's played mainly for comedic purposes, but I just love that SH is always the only man who manages to open the door to her (heart), first by force and then without❤️ (sorry for my rumbling, I'm overanalysing every scene rn)
I hope that Netflixx will get the rights to broadcast this wonderful drama globally. The international audience…
It happened with both Mr Queen and Agency which had huge ratings too, so I have high hopes, especially that Viki doesn't really promote it. I think it's a matter of time. However it's not the typical Netflix romance type of kdrama...
This is one of my top anticipated dramas this year. It looks rad, from the screenwriter, to director and actors. Also, second couple are ex-lovers? I love that dynamic, and it was so well done in OBS <3
it's been a long time since i've enjoyed a drama this much - especially since it wrapped up so cleanly. i will…
From more recent dramas (tho it's def not slow burn haha), the romance I enjoyed the most was A Journey To Love. It had crazy chemistry, was pretty mature and the comedy was to die for. Pretty much everything works there, similar to Knight Flower. But I never finished it cause the ending... Let a lot to be desired, to say the least.

I thought that Lost is the perfect kind of drama for me, but I felt soo bored with the first few episodes 😭 No idea why I couldn't connect to it at all... I envy all people who enjoyed it, honestly
But her dying doesn't change the fact that we were mad that she's even there and wasting the drama's airtime. So if someone dropped the rating cause of her, I don't think her death will change it. It was expected that she'll end badly anyway
It's not that we hated her character. I mean we did, but we also hated MH and SM. But they were entertaining in their own way. But Yura was an afterthought and had no real purpose in the story.
My main question is - why did they wear 2023 clothes in 2013. Gimme that bad clothes, bad makeup, not this clean girl and quiet luxury aesthetics, I want to see it all XD
In December 2020, a law that grants a two-year extension for K-pop and K-entertainment artists was passed. This…
My point wasn't to bash on him cause he's 29 and yet to complete military service. I know that it can be delayed due to various reasons. It was to express my disbelief at his age cause he looks older, especially in MMH. I have no business in judging whether and when anyone completes their military service, I'm not Korean. No idea why you have to be so passive agressive and judgy when you were the one who misunderstood.
he can as an actor who hasnt received papers wait until 30. pls read about the korean military service re:celebrity
I am well aware of it. I just didn't think he's so young. I thought that he's >35, at that age he would have to have his military service completed, if he wasn't exempted.
