4 Reasons To Watch “Knight Flower“
1. Investigative Historical Action Comedy Drama
“Knight Flower” stands out as one of the most intriguing historical K-dramas, offering a mix of action, comedy, and mystery. Since it is centered around a widow who becomes a masked woman aiding others, each episode brings fresh and diverse storylines.
I know sageuk can be challenging for some viewers due to the heaviness of the genre, but “Knight Flower” stands out with its impeccable comedic timing, thanks to Lee Ha Nee’s skill as the comedy queen and Lee Jong Won’s unexpected talent in this genre. The series masterfully integrates actors’ comedic timing with humorous background music, sound effects, and editing, ensuring every episode is very fun to watch
2. Female Centered Lead
The moment Lee Ha Nee was cast in this drama, I knew she would not disappoint. As an award-winning actress, Lee Ha Nee demonstrates her versatility across genres, making her the perfect choice for the role of Jo Yeo Hwa. She can pull comedy, action scenes, and romance with ease.
Another reason why Jo Yeo Hwa resonates as a beloved female lead is her proactive approach to challenges. Rather than waiting to be rescued, she tackles problems head-on, embodying a refreshing portrayal of self-reliance. Jo Yeo Hwa emerges as her own hero, offering assistance to those in need without hesitation. We also get to see Lee Ha Nee do action scenes showing how she’s one of the coolest actresses ever.
3. Most Adorable Couple
First and foremost, “Knight Flower” isn’t primarily focused on romance, but we can all agree that couples in non-romantic genres have a special charm. The female and male lead, despite never having experienced love before, share a connection that tugs at the heartstrings with its forbidden allure.
I really love how Park Su Ho compliments Jo Yeo Hwa’s strong character making them such a power couple who only have eyes for one another. I’m not exaggerating but Lee Ha Nee and Lee Jong Won’s chemistry is out of this world and you wouldn’t even notice the age gap between the two. This noona-dongsaeng pairing worked so well for them.
