Flower Of Evil, to me, is the true definition of a suspense-thriller. Every episode leaves a chill down your spine such that you can't just sleep on it. You just want to take a peak of the next episode and you end up finishing it again and the cycle continues! I must say everything about Flower of Evil was done par excellence. Starting off with the story, the cast, direction, screenplay, cinematography, musical score. The songs Feel You and In My Heart really set the dramatic mood of the story while the suspense tones on the background made my heart pound. Oh, all of them deserve recognition!!!

If there's one description that I could give to the writer, it's recklessly bold! Yoo Jung-hee was so daring to put her characters in awkwardly cliffhanger situations so that her viewers would wonder how the actors, already caught in the dead-end could still get away! So you go see the next episode! It was also wonderful how they managed to show an interplay of the past and the present to give light on the story. Much credit goes to Director Kim Cheol-kyu who drew out a very convincing performance from his actors.

Lee Joon Gi was indeed cut for the roles of Baek Hee-sung and Do Hyun-su and I don't think there's any other actor best fit for these roles. It was my first time to see him at FOE and since then I've already become his hopeless fangirl to the point that I've crammed to watch his other shows because I just can't seem to get enough of him. Lee Joon Gi is a gifted actor. He has depth. His penetrating eyes alone plus the movements of his facials already say it all. He is right when he explained in one interview, a true actor shouldn't be limited by subtitles. His actions, expressions, tone of voice should be able to tell a story.

I deeply sympathize with Do Hyun-Su. He is a beautiful person wrongly accused by a judgmental society that never attempted to uncover the truth but simply relied on heresays. Hyun-su and his sister Hae-su deserve a happy life. So does Ji-Won who gave her heart and genuinely loved her husband.

Truth and love are the central themes of Flower of Evil hidden in the guise of deceit and hate. It is a masterpiece! It is a must-watch!
