Shock value fest.
A Frozen Flower definitely tries to do a lot—historical drama, palace intrigue, and steamy romance all rolled into one. It has beautiful cinematography, solid performances from the three main leads, and a messy love triangle? at its core. But does it all come together? Kind of. Misunderstanding, betrayal, consequences follow.
Now, the good stuff: The production is top-notch. The costumes, sets, and cinematography are beautiful. The film also doesn’t shy away from it wants to show, tackling sexuality, love, and duty in a way that was pretty bold.
The drama in the story is extra here, some plot points feel repetitive, and the pacing drags in the second half. The steamy scenes were a talking point and feel more like shock value than storytelling.
