If there are enough footage in the can then maybe a week off from filming will not result in episode pre-emptions in the coming weeks but we should get ready for some breaks in our currently airing fave dramas. Due to a spike again in COVID-19 in South Korea, a handful of dramas earlier in the week have already announced … Continue reading →
There is no mid-week hump for me, at least not while Flower of Evil is airing in the tvN Wed-Thurs time slot. This drama is the best type of modernized melodrama crack, the classic tropes redefined and elevated to sleek modern mores. The stakes are high for EVERYONE which is why the tense terseness works, we know characters are invested … Continue reading →
Lee Jun Ki fans all have their “moment” story, and there is quite a diverse array of his K-dramas which have hooked a casual viewer into a convert. Mine is of course the still perfect and very re-watchable Time Between Dog and Wolf, one of his first K-dramas though I watched it a few years after it came out. It’s … Continue reading →
There is so much going on in Flower of Evil and also so much to look forward to. This is textbook K-drama melodrama expertise in scriptwriting, tight and pulls no punches. Episode 6 peeled back the why is Hyun Soo pretending to be Hee Sung layer, not the full backstory but an intriguing glimpse. Just knowing if Hee Sung woke … Continue reading →
Okay, episode 5 of Flower of Evil cements it for me. I LOVE THIS DRAMA. It’s totally Nice Guy on steroids and also starring Moon Chae Won and switching one of my baes Song Joong Ki for Lee Jun Ki and grounded by an interesting story with still so much ground to cover. Episode 5 got 2.973% ratings as the … Continue reading →
This past weekend I caught up on Flower of Evil, and all that kissing and making out between the OTP aside, the first 2 episodes were merely good. A lot of stage setting and hints but we don’t get to form an emotional connection right off the bat with the characters. Lee Jun Ki‘s Hee Sung is too “acting evil” … Continue reading →
Since I’ve yet to start new tvN Wed-Thurs drama Flower of Evil I can’t comment on the plot, acting, or production yet but purely on audience interest it’s not off the the right trajectory start. Episode 1 got 3.4% ratings but dropped to 2.860% in episode 2, despite audience interest and early positive reviews and commentary, not to mention popular … Continue reading →
This Wednesday was the arrival of new tvN Wed-Thurs drama Flower of Evil and honestly I thought it was August already but it’s only the very very end of July and oh my god I’m so excited this drama is here but can this month end already?! Back to Flower starring Lee Jun Ki and Moon Chae Won, the first … Continue reading →
Everything about tvN K-drama Flower of Evil looks great, and I’m impressed the production has its stuff together to hold a press conference a week before its premiere. Nowadays its always scrambling and more scrambling so a well organized drama is much appreciated. Flower premieres next Wednesday on July 29th, taking over the time slot from Oh My Baby. Leads … Continue reading →
Whenever I see new stills and previews for upcoming tvN drama Flower of Evil I keep wanting to yell “but what about the child(ren)?” Lol, that’s the catchphrase for the morality police but here I do think that the whole scenario of Daddy Lee Jun Ki being a formerly bad/evil person living a pretend life to Mommy Moon Chae Won … Continue reading →
K-dramas are no stranger to the anti-hero but making an uber baddie the male lead is pretty rare. What I’m bracing myself for is actually having to hate Lee Jun Ki in upcoming Flower of Evil because he’s already giving off total sociopath vibes and that means he’s killing it in the acting department. His character had erased his evil/bad … Continue reading →
I was hoping Lee Jun Ki would be playing a wrongfully accused baddie in Flower of Evil running from his past but from all the posters including this latest one it just looks certain like he’s really the evil one. Sigh, there goes my happy ending but at least the angst will be through the roof since Moon Chae Won … Continue reading →
I like the bottom poster better for the sheer intensity but the top poster just makes my love addled heart pitter patter. tvN released two official drama posters for upcoming melodrama thriller Flower of Evil with Lee Jun Ki and Moon Chae Won, almost going overboard with the skinskip after their first go around in Criminal Minds was a straight … Continue reading →
