In Episode 78 Join Caitlin and Nas from The Swoon Diaries Podcast for a review of the Kdrama Flower of Evil. Caitlin has rewatched this Kdrama many times, but this was Nas's first-time watching Flower of Evil.

As always, the first part of the episode, we go over the cast, say a short synopsis of the drama and gives a non-spoiler first impressions/review of the drama. The rest of the episode, Nas and I dive right into Flower of Evil. We go episode and episode, dissecting what happens in the episode and our reaction to the events. We talked about some themes we saw throughout the Kdrama like Trauma and Guilt. Of course, you get Nas's first reactions to everything - all of the juicy parts that people who have seen this Kdrama before love to revisit and hear about.

Hope you enjoy the discussion and let us know what you think of the review? Do you agree or disagree with what we said. Have you seen Flower of Evil?

Flower of Evil can be watched on VIKI

Look forward to more reviews with Nas and also my other hosts in the future. If there are any dramas you want to see reviewed on the podcast, you can also leave a comment or DM NoSleep4Dramas on IG.

That is right, the Drama Trio is closing out an era and reviewing the last Cdrama of the trio (ha trio - get it) within the Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms world of Cdramas.

As always, the first part of the episode, we go over the cast,say a short synopsis of the drama and gives a non-spoiler first impressions/review of the drama.
