@backstreetboysfan  ohhh.................. you haven't watched.  It was unforgettable, this show and the characters are just so memorable, and their love will leave a lasting impression on your heart. Sad ending but bittersweet. But, you know, with such a star-studded cast, one would think that this drama would have done well among domestic fans. The ratings were not that high. It's only overrated. For me, the one and only saving grace was: Lee Jun Ki.   

Nope, I have read about it, oh okay.

[willenette]

***The 'Flower of Evil' team recently had a delightful reunion! On January 21st, actress Jang Heejin shared photos from the gathering and expressed, "The day Junki oppa generously treated us to lots of food. 'Flower of Evil,' fighting!!" The stars of 'Flower of Evil' always showcased their enduring friendship as they gathered together again. It's been 4-years that the drama wrapped-up but, their friendship is still strong. Notably, the cast had previously demonstrated their unwavering bond with a year-end meeting and shared photos from the gathering last year as well.

12 highly recommended time travel Korean dramas you should add to your must-watch list

 

If you were given a chance to travel back in time, what time would it be?

 

Unfortunately, in reality, we can’t travel back to the time when we were so happy, the time when we were with our loved ones who are not with us now, and the time we want to change because we regretted it the most.

 

Traveling back in time is only a fantasy that only happens in dramas, and it makes us realize that we should value the present, we have to let go of the past and look forward to the future.

 

We are who we are today because of the results of our actions in the past. And our future selves will be the result of our actions today so, always choose to be happy and always do what is right.

 

Here are highly recommended time travel dramas you shouldn’t miss.

6 Time Travel Revenge K-Dramas That Are Worth Binge-Watching

 

If given the opportunity, would you go back in time and rearrange the blueprint of your life? A second chance to right the wrongs as well as tempting fate to rewrite one’s destiny may seem like a mission impossible. However, in the vast world of K-dramas, we have riveting tales of revenge as our characters travel back in time and exact their pound of flesh with such finesse that you cannot help but cheer them on. Here are six binge-worthy time travel revenge dramas, where the main characters could not be outwitted in their plan for retribution.

 

 

“Again My Life”

 

 

Kim Hee Woo (Lee Joon Gi) is a public prosecutor with a strong sense of justice. However, when he unearths some misdoings by an influential and powerful politician, he is murdered by a hitman. He is saved by a mysterious Grim Reaper, who sends him back to the past, giving him the chance to relive his life all over again and succeed this time in his pursuit for truth and against the statesman. As he finds himself once again in his 18-year-old body, he starts sifting out the people in his life, many of whom he thought to be allies but were actually enemies. Though he has the chance he wanted, can this lone ranger stand up against a conglomerate?

 

Lee Joon Gi is a one man show in this engaging and taut narrative. A fast paced storyline, it keeps you on the edge as this one man sets to destroy the edifice of corruption.
