As a fan of mystery-thriller drama, it took me less than a week to finish all 16 episodes. I could assure you this drama would make you feel on the edge of the seat. The great acting by the cast will make you feel close to them. This drama is definitely one that is worth your time to watch. I felt frustrated, angry and also cried while watching the drama. Since it has now come to end, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the cast and those who worked behind the scene of Flower of Evil for such a quality drama.
To those who already finished watching the drama, let me know in the comments what are your thoughts. Are happy with the ending or you were hoping for something else?
