After two or three a bit slow and sometimes boring episodes, the drama finds its pace and presents a rather intriguing and well-presented story line.

Yeo-hwa lives as a widow with her in-laws after her husband passed away on the day of the marriage before she even met him. She has to be obedient and cry at the shrine all day long, that's basically her life. Or it should be her life, but fortunately, this historical K-Drama gives us a strong and intelligent main character, as Yeo-hwa is skilled in martial arts and roams the streets at night to help the ones in need and fight for justice. Sooner or later, she has to face the law, because even Joseon has a police force. Luckily for us (and for Yeo-hwa), the law comes in form of the handsome sergeant Jong-won. After a while, they find themselves on the same side of a bigger story that revolves around the death of Jong-wons family, the disappearance of Yeo-hwas brother and a tragic incident in the king's past.

As I said, the series needs a few episodes before it becomes interesting. After that, it stands out as a balanced, nicely written historical drama. From all KDramas I have seen so far, "Knight Flower" is in the top of having well written characters. Normally, there are quite a few I find boring or annoying, they scream too much or are way to toxic or just stupid and silly, but in this series, everyone has their place, everyone feels well-developed and believable, even the villains are not just there to be villains. Most importantly, the main characters are smart and act accordingly, not rushing into things just to create drama and plot points. When they do, it's understandable and still fitting for their character.

The love story is slow, it works with gazes and carefully crafted scenes of quite affection that can be hotter than a full on make out session. The chemistry is tangible. Over the just 12 episodes, you find a nicely paced drama with an enjoyable cast, quite a bit of humour, an interesting plot and two refreshingly strong and independent main characters.

A simple story with a recurring theme of the Joseon era and the difficulties of divorced and widowed women in life with a very weak romance flavor.

The actors are all great and it is also a comedy drama, but since the story is not original, the first 5 episodes are very boring. The show peaks from episodes 6 to 9 and becomes exciting, but then declines again in the last 3 episodes.

In addition, there is no skinship or kiss in this series, perhaps because of the 12-year age difference between the actors in the lead role. However, I did not get addicted to watching it because of its monotonous plot and I give it a 7 out of 10 points.

I love Korean historical romantic comedies, and this one just has it all. Lee Hanee's comedic timing is excellent, the costumes and set are beautiful while the story itself centers around a mysterious event some 15 years ago, when the former king died, Lee Hanee's character was widowed and someone orchestrated clandestine events. Since then Lee Hanee's character has lived as a widow at day, but thanks to her martial training she rights wrongs during the night. I also thoroughly enjoy how the female lead is an adult woman while the chemistry with the male lead is very enjoyable. I'm eight episodes in and can't wait for the next one.

Korean Drama '' Knight Flower '' is a historical comedy with some political intrigue woven into it.

The drama has a strong female lead who captivates each scene and truly shines, especially when it comes to the comedy part. She was energetic, and funny, nailed her fighting scenes, and also handled her emotional scenes masterfully.

In addition, the drama had some nice twists that it handled nicely. The mystery was, moreover, intriguing and interesting.

On the other hand, the romance was weak, could have been omitted, but it had some sweet times between the two leads.

The performances, finally, were great by every actor and actress in the cast.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

I thoroughly enjoyed the drama Knight Flower. The main actress acted so well and was so funny! I am wishing right now for a second season where the main actors will get together for real! The chemistry between them was just too much. Park So Hoo's love and care for Lady Cho was so obvious. I enjoyed the way So Hoo looked at the female lead all throughout the drama. His eyes were solely on her and full of passion, determination and obsession. At times, I would laugh at how jealous he would become of the men interested in her. At other times, I would be impressed with how far he's ready to go to protect the woman he cherishes. He's even ready to kill her enemies on her behalf and to follow her wherever she wants to go. What a man! What a love! I am indeed a hopeless romantic! I really hope the producers of this drama think about a second season. I never regretted a 12 episodes' drama this much!
