Kkotpadang: Joseonhondamgongjakso

After 30 minutes of watching, I already know who will end up with who. Sadly, I root for the king and I really like him. It is like a bad case of second lead syndrome that I can't sympathize with the lead or like him until the end. The rest went downhill for me and completely lost interest in the story. my rating is for the king and the other two flower boys.

This was my very first K-drama, and I absolutely loved it! The show was a perfect blend of comedy, drama, and romance, all wrapped up in a refreshing and captivating storyline. One of the highlights for me was how beautifully it showcased the culture-rich, vibrant, and fascinating to watch.

The dreamy and exciting events kept me hooked from start to finish, and the actors delivered standout performances that truly brought their characters to life. While some moments might feel a little unrealistic, that only added to the charm and magic of the story. What impressed me the most was how the show never felt boring; every episode was packed with unexpected twists and heartfelt moments. It's the ultimate comfort watch and an absolute must-see!

" Flower Crew : Joseon Marriage Agency " had a strong start. The young couple was cute and a delight to watch, as well as the agency, which had interesting characters to crew it. Each character was unique and entertaining, especially Park JiHoon's character, who had a nice twist in the end as well.

The big twist in the begining was pretty good and it kept things interesting until everyone could figure out what had happened. However, the drama started getting boring after a while. The romance, especially the love triangle, was just predictable and it didn't have the intensity to make it great. The couple didn't have chemistry as well. The drama, in addition, stopped showing cases for the flower crew to pick up and they mainly focused on the making of the main character into a lady. Plus, the leading lady's character was annoying from time to time.

So, overall, five out of ten.

Romantic drama with small bits of comedy relief. I would love to see another season! The costuming is wonderful and the sets appear so realistic that I feel like they filmed it all in real period buildings. Casting seems mostly dead on, with most having a well rounded range of acting skills.

It is sometimes confusing exactly what time period we are looking at, as some things conflict with the costumes, such as sunglasses. These things are easily overlooked, though.

I also really appreciated the well-done subtitles.

And if Park Jihoon ever wanted to give ME a manicure, I would certainly not say no!

This was a very intense love triangle and I was honestly rooting for both men. I liked them both, but I felt the King's (Su's) passion for the heroine more than I felt Hun's passion for her. I felt, Hun's romantic feelings were more obvious until the king revealed himself to him. Then he took a step back and the romance felt less passionate than it was when he was simply holding it all in for a different reason. I was a nervous mess by the end of episode 12 waiting to see how all of this would unfold. There was so much at stake for every single character in the story. I was genuinely torn between who she should end up with. Should it be Hun or Su? Both men were so different and appealing in different ways. Su wore his love and passion so openly and ferociously, while having to restrain himself when at the palace and Hun was forced to restrain his affection because of his moral code, commitment to his career, and possible danger from the King. He also had to restrain his emotions even more carefully because loving this woman openly was a death sentence. I don't understand why they didn't tell her the truth from the beginning because she might have kept her feelings in check had she known the risks everyone she cared about had to take. In some ways, I was rooting more for the king because I genuinely felt his passion and I loved his journey from sweet young black smith to powerful king. On the other hand, Hun was going was risking his life by challenging the king and was willing to risk it all. I don't know, watching I was as confused as the heroine.

This was one of the best love triangles in a KDrama because both men were legitimate contenders for this woman's heart. The noble woman, Ms Kang was evil. I dont understand why one of the guys fell in love with her. She had a very mean-spirited heart. I did not care for her at all.
