Please do! The other reviews has been very mediocre.

Angsty plots makes a good drama. :D

lol the ones that I watched is that he had concubines but never touch them. He just received them since its the custom.

What? That late? So they remained indifferent to each other like 36 episodes? lol

Thank you! :D :D

I love the drama to pieces. It was unexplaining very satisfying plot and script wise. The chemistry was crazy as well. I watched it back in 2012 and it remains fond in my memory even until now.

Ohh I agree. I'm a big fan of Moon Chae Won so I totally get what you mean. The part where she is losing her mind when Hyun Soo was kidnapped was really awesome. I wonder why she didnt get nominated for Baeksang Best Actress for her performance in this drama.

If you havent watch The Princess' Man yet, I would recommend you to watch the drama too. She played a strong character as well in the drama. One of my very fave romance sageuks. :D

The best part of the drama is actually the 2nd half of it. I rated the first half like 7/10 but the second half truly takes the cake for me. Its definitely 9.5/10 in my book

Yes yes the fact that she emphasis 'NO, you dont know..' is the one that makes the whole scene more heartbreaking.

I love the drama to pieces. The fact that they are always together, fighting the same thing is what makes it more special. Husband & wife supposed to be together and fight things together. Not leaving one another thinking it is the best for them (noble idiocy lol). I love dramas when they do this. It makes it more special to me. :D

I'm so happy to see how many people actually love Secret here. I always thought I'm the only one lol. It is without a doubt the best kdrama for year 2013. I was shocked to see the writer is a first time writer yet he could write such an amazing script that is so addicting and sad. I also enjoyed his other works such as Mask & Time. Though Time has such an amazing premise -- it never reached its full potential which disappoint me greatly.

Ahh I never consider The Princess Man as enemy turned to lover but you are so right! The drama is truly amazing though. I could write essays to describe how awesome is the plot and how justified is the ending. The best romance sageuk in my book. I was obsessed with the drama when it was aired back then.

For me the best enemy turned to lover drama would be Kleun Cheewit. Hands down the drama would always be a winner in my book since the hate was real and justified -- the FL accidentally kill the ML's fiancee.

And Mark & Yaya's chemistry is the best I have ever seen from any dramas. When they're both on screen, you couldn't look anywhere else since they're just so dazzling together. I find it amazing how magnificent is their chemistry despite they spent most of the time hating each other guts in the drama. And Jee is a perfect example of a FL who is strong, independent and badass. She handles everything with grace that you just cant help but amazed with her strength and will-power.

Me too. I fear for the male lead -- thinking how unfortunate and miserable his life would have become having to spent with someone as manipulative and selfish as her. :(

Thats the thing. The drama could cover a lot of things but try to look back at the story and list down the plot one by one -- it is unfortunately without substance. The episodes are freaking long but didnt really tell anything. Because I'm used to historical dramas with layered scripts which tell many different plots at the same time, I find Mr Sunshine truly lacks in the writing department. But the cinematography is really beautiful though and the performance is indeed excellent from all the actors.

IKR? He said it with a straight face and without any hesitation at all. If I was her, I dont know if I'm able to go back home that night lol. To know all your life with him is a lie.. It hurts like no other

The biggest reveal of the drama is the fact that we all being led to believe that Hyun Soo is a psychopath but turned out he is not. His father knew he is not but his father kind of brought him up with that belief that he cant feel love. The power of brainwash? I dont know how to label it.

Kluen Cheewit.

I loved Secret (in my book the best Kdrama from 2013) but Kluen Cheewit takes the cake when it comes to love to hate relationship. The lead couples had amazing amazing chemistry. The best chemistry I have ever seen from any drama.

''The only reason he lived and survived another fortnight was so he could spend time with the object of his affection before he perished.''

Sorry I had so many issues with the drama so despite having watching it, my criticisms outweigh whatever good things the drama has to offer. I unfortunately find the drama a beautiful painting without substance. :(

So who is the object of his affection that he refers to here? Aeshin or Hina? Because I remember he loves Aeshin till the end but he never got any sweet moment with her lol.

Flowers of Evil is truly a masterpiece. I actually took a long break from Kdramas and that drama took me back in. I find the drama very interesting how Hyun Soo was brought out to think he was unable to love or feel love which lead to a big reveal later in the drama. So many plot twists and as someone who always sense plot twists miles before it happens, I'm glad this drama managed to surprise me many times.

For me the quote in the drama that hits me hard when Ji Won told Hyun Soo; 'Even for 1 day, I hope you will be able to be me and know how I feel about you.' She says this because she knew he cant feel love so she wanted him to be her and understand and feel this big love she has towards him. Man, that scene really had me like no other.

I really have problem with this kind of trope. Like ~love~ could fixed everything like mental disorders, bad & toxic personalities or even crimes SMH

This is the problem that I usually have with some Kdramas tbh. That female leads with selfish, arrogant, and rude attitude are considered strong and badass by the viewers. This seriously undermine the real strong and independent female leads with actual good attitude and grace. Because seriously, imagine if you change those selfish, arrogant, and rude female leads' gender, then you will get an entitled and jerk male leads that we all hate lol.

I always have problem when Kdramas romanticize something. Forced kisses are not romantic, overly touching someone else is not romantic and saying somehow ~love~ can cure mental disorder is not romantic and realistic as well.

One of the biggest irks I have when they romanticize emotional torture -- the one that we got from Because This Is My First Life. The FL made the ML falls hard for her, stripped of his real identity before meeting her to the point that he couldn't live in the same house anymore just to test his love. Then fly back to his life like nothing happen expecting him to accept her again. And all you get from the viewers is that 90% of them are praising the drama for the its ~poignant and beautiful script~ when I find it pretentious most of the times esp esp when the script didnt walk the talk -- thus it becomes fake and pretentious.
