Pros
Characters - They were so brilliantly written. I was invested in so many of them. The way the writers could make you feel for a character who had as little as 1 minute of screentime.
Character development
Romance – I didn’t watch this for the romance nor was I expecting it, but it has two of the most romantic and sweetest couples I’ve ever seen. I really adore the second couple. They’re so precious.
Twist & Turns – So, so many layers to this story. I love it.
Cons
Length – This drama really dragged. It could have been the greatest thing ever if they cut out a couple of episodes. I thought there would be some reprieve in the end, but nope. I actually fast-forwarded through 50% of it. What they added to drag the story for another episode was really unnecessary and especially to do that to viewers in the end.
Spoiler – The streaming service I watched this on uses a thumbnail that is a MAJOR spoiler. Not the story’s fault ofc, but it definitely ruined the mystery and surprise for me.

*Very minor and broad spoiler*The first episode will draw you in immediately with its calm yet increasingly suspenseful atmosphere. It's not an easy series to describe so I'll keep it relatively short. Because the story has such a strong romantic baseline, I half expected it to overpower the crime and suspense as some series do. Fortunately, it was well balanced and it did not disappoint.
The only aspects that made it a bit less than for me was somewhere in the middle when the original flow started to feel rushed. The shifting of Baek Hee Sung's emotions was abrupt (even if there was a trigger) and since that shift, it became less and less believable. Mostly because it was followed by dramatic events clumped too closely together which caused some encounters to become a tad repetitive, and some plot holes to develop.
Nevertheless, this series will draw you in and keep you in enough suspense to want to keep watching in lieu of sleep. I think it's a great one for those who enjoy different genres inclusive of psychology, romance, crime, or mystery. While it isn't a masterpiece in any particular genre, it did equally well in all of it.

Resenhas sinceras
Eu tinha escrito uma resenha enorme sobre essa série, mas o meu celular perdeu tudo :(Então vou resumir: a série é perfeita, maravilhosa, foge do convencional, é cheia de plost twists, todos os atores dão um show de atuação, a ost só melhora tudo isso e o final é satisfatório.
SPOILER
A única coisa que me impede de dar 10/10 para esse dorama é o final, pois mesmo sendo satisfatório é meio broxante.
A série foge completamente do óbvio e do padrão, logo o fato do Prota perder a memória no último episódio é MUITO CLICHÊ. Basicamente todo dorama tem isso e é um saco, porque é muito batido já. E o fato dele perder a memória torna o final muito corrido, coisas que deveriam ser explicadas com mais calma não são. Outra coisa que me incomodou é a Ji Woo ficar com ele mesmo ele não lembrando de nada, pareceu que foi outra mentira dele, até porque ele tava relutante em ficar com ela e do nada resolveu que queria.
No geral é isso, série muito boa que vale a pena ser assistida. Só o final que não é muito bom, mesmo sendo feliz, contudo ainda sim vale a pena.

No words to describe how good this is!!
Everything about this drama is completely amazing. Don’t hesitate to watch because it will be worth every second. You will never get bored, every chapter keeps you wondering what’s going to happen next. I dare to say it’s one of the best kdramas in this genre, and that’s saying much because i’ve watched a lot. The actors, the acting, the chemistry, the mistery, the love and hate leaves you open mouthed and longing for more. Lee Joon Gi deserves all the recognition for this role because you can quite literally feel his pain through the screen. I still think about some scenes from time to time and get the same feelings as if I was watching it for the first time. A complete work of art.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
From Avoidance to Adoration: How a 2020 K-Drama Became a 10/10 Must-Watch After Four Years
When this K-drama was first released in 2020, I avoided it because I found it incredibly boring knowing who the culprit was from the start. However, four years later, I decided to give it a try as it was on my plan-to-watch list and had such a high rating. To my surprise, it turned out to be a 10/10 for me. The story was well-paced over all 16 episodes, and I could see the growth of the protagonist and his relationship with Cha Ji Won. The actor did an excellent job portraying the character, and the story flowed smoothly. I have nothing but praise for this drama.Four years after its initial release, I finally decided to watch it, and I was pleasantly surprised. Despite knowing the culprit from the start, the drama managed to keep me engaged with its intricate plot and character development. Over the span of 16 episodes, the storyline was evenly distributed, ensuring there was never a dull moment. The growth of the protagonist was particularly well-done, showcasing a deep and evolving bond with Cha Ji Won.
The lead actor delivered a stellar performance, bringing depth and nuance to the character. His portrayal was compelling and authentic, making the character's journey believable and relatable. The chemistry between the lead characters was palpable, adding an emotional layer to the narrative that was both touching and intense.
In addition to the strong performances, the direction and writing were top-notch. The story was meticulously crafted, with each episode building upon the last, creating a cohesive and engaging viewing experience. The drama tackled complex themes and emotions, exploring the intricacies of relationships, trust, and redemption.
In conclusion, this K-drama exceeded my expectations in every way. It was a compelling, well-acted, and beautifully written series that kept me hooked from start to finish. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a drama that combines strong character development with a gripping storyline. For me, it's a definite 10/10.

flower of evil foi um dos doramas que mais me entregou emoções enquanto eu assistia. sendo um suspense, ele me mantia presa, intimamente conectada com a tensão do conflito do protagonista, ao mesmo tempo que me deixava intrigada com o que realmente aconteceu para ele chegar até aquele ponto e quantas mentiras existiam. além disso, a preocupação e a paixão pela química do casal, pensando em como queria que tudo se ligasse para aquela família poder viver verdadeiramente feliz, também ficou enclausurada em mim, esperando uma solução e recebendo ainda mais dúvidas e personagens interligados.
o enredo é muito muito bom, e misturado com a atuação consistente e enigmática dos atores, que nos entregaram uma protagonista forte e um mentiroso marginalizado, um núcleo de família aparentemente perfeito mas que escondiam vários segredos e a forma que a sociedade transforma e dita o destino de uma pessoa, mesmo que ela não tenha feito nada, por conta de julgamentos antecipados.
eles pecaram na finalização de algumas coisas, colocando alternativas fantasiosas demais para a solução de problemas, e teve um final fundamentado em uma dessas também, mas em minha opinião isso casou bem com a história e, apesar de ter terminado meio aberto, eu acredito que ele pode ter ido na direção que eu queria que fosse, dado o desenvolvimento dos protagonistas.
os personagens, como eu disse, te seguram firme na narrativas para você desvendar os seus pontos de vista, e a construção de todo esse dorama ter sido tão fantástica se deve principalmente pela construção dessas pessoas.
o vilão é muito aterrorizante, e o jeito que as relações em volta dele se desenvolvem é uma obra prima, mexe muito com a surpresa e a penas e muitos outros sentimentos.
os cenários, com uma filmografia escura e misteriosa, foram de acordo com a história, assim como a trilha sonora que, apesar de ter poucas músicas, essas tinham uma qualidade superior, e me emocionam até hoje pensando na história.
de observação final, gostaria de destacar o quão apaixonada fiquei no ator, lee joongi. além de me lembrar um kpop boy muito querido, aka zuho (sf9) (SÉRIO ELES SÃO PARENTES PRÓXIMOS, NÃO É POSSÍVEL!!!!), a atuação dele é muito boa e ele é uma bolinha de amor na vida real, mesmo sendo ariano! isso só prova que ele não deve ser real! assistir foe como o primeiro contato com ele me deixou impressões muito boas, e estou almejando assistir ainda mais performances.
também queria dizer que a experiência de assistir os episódios acompanhando o lançamento na hora com pessoas queridas foi muito legal, cheguei um pouco tarde mas foi muito bom discutir teorias e cenas e atuações com minhas amigas e eu recomendo muito assistir doramas em lançamento! agora isso se tornou um vício.

Obra extraordinária
Um drama complexo feito para bugar sua mente. Então fica a dica preste bastante atenção até nos pequenos detalhes. Tudo tão bem feito, o enredo é fascinante o roteiro expendido, atuações são incríveis. Esquece aqueles clichês nessa obra não temos pelo ao contrário temos uma obra original carregada de boa história, com suspense, ação e um lindo romance.Os protagonistas são formidáveis. Se entregaram de corpo e alma para fazer o papel você se sente conectada com eles desde o primeiro momento. A química deles é espantosa de tão boa, eles juntos é bom bom de se ver.
A protagonista Feminina é admirável, forte, alegre destemida, amorosa, inteligente, batalhadora luta pelo que acredita ser correto com unhas e dentes, uma personagem que você pode desejar ser .
O protagonista masculino é fascinante, misterioso complexo muito complexo ele te deixa confuso sobre suas intenções até quase o final do drama, ele é uma caixinha de surpresas.
Todos os personagens fazem sentido, todas as histórias são boas , todos contribuem pelo bom progresso da história. Até o vilão é bem posicionado.
Cada episódio é feito num ritmo bom você se vê mais imerso na história é viciante , esse show está entre os melhores que eu já assisti.
Em fim com certeza recomendo.

One of the best dramas I've ever seen It was a story about a dangerous psychopath married to an intelligent police officer, implying that there would be a clash between the two, a bit like cat and mouse, being even more intense because they had a young daughter together, but in the end it was a romance between the two. Heesung suddenly went from a psychopath to a normal and passionate man, and Jiwon from a strong and determined woman to a passionate sufferer, who forgot everything her husband did. Until the last moment I was rooting for him to be pretending and using her, but no, they wasted their potential. However, Heesung before the change, his relationship with his father, the couple against the real Heesung and him as the villain was incredible. Furthermore, Eunha is a beautiful and perfect little baby. Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Amazing start
Lead roles has an amazing start. Loved every part in 1st and 2nd episode, hoping to be more amazing. Loved every part and the detailing shown still now. Lee Joon Gi Acting was so cool.Still now screenplay was good and detailing too.
The reason I loved watching this drama is Lee Joon Gi, love his acting. And I like the new character he is playing in this drama. ‘Flower of evil’ is different and it is really an amazing start.
Love the suspense, love, mother-father-daughter relationship.

Overdramatized convoluted mess
A murderer husband and his detective wife.What has he really done in the past? Who is he? How about his parents? Is he a psychopath? How long will he be able to keep this from his wife? Will he end up killing her? Will she kill him?
Maybe the show will answer all these questions or not. I’m only 5 episodes in and I’m beginning to not care. As usual, the show started out well but this is just another unfortunate case of the writer falling in love with his own cleverness and didn’t know when to stop. The story gets more and more absurd and convoluted with bait and switch tactics and red herrings.
The FL does a good job playing her role. I’ve never seen her but she’s good at expressing her emotions. The ML often overplays his character like he’s giving a performance instead of playing a character.
The relationship between the ML and his frenemy, the reporter, is probably the dumbest thing so far. The ML kidnaps the reporter for recognizing him and keeps him in his basement for days and threatened to kill him. Well, after all that, they sort of work together because the ML has a video of some sort? Er…
I also have to point out how terrible of an actress that plays the ML’s mom is. She’s beyond terrible.
Also, there are so many names to keep track of and it gets harder to track because you don’t really see these characters but they get mentioned a lot.
We’ll see how it goes from here but not expecting much. I’m beginning to think that a lot of people just give 9s and 10s no matter what.

Flower Of Evil
Para comenzar con esta nueva reseña quiero decir que este drama lo vi cuando estaba en emisión en su momento, pero aún así guardo todo el amor del mundo por él.Flower of evil es un drama que te tiene pegado a la pantalla de manera que digas ''Ok, siguiente capítulo'' sin pensarlo, tiene un guión increíble, personajes que están muy bien hechos, el OST a pesar de tener solo tres canciones es totalmente épico.
Recuerdo que esperaba todas las semanas el miércoles y jueves para poder ver este drama, realmente me atrapo muy rápido. Si te gustan los dramas de misterio además con una historia bastante original, te recomiendo totalmente este drama.
Volvería a ver este drama sin duda, siento que reviviría mil y una emociones al verlo, no pierdes nada con darle una oportunidad. <3
