I watched Bloody Flower last week and still can’t decide if the killer is a monster or a twisted genius. His logic about net zero deaths if the cure works is scary because part of you wonders if he’s right. But no, killing is killing. The prosecutor was my favorite, she stayed true to her principles the whole time. The dad lawyer annoyed me at first because he’s supposed to be moral but then you see his pain and get why he’s struggling. Acting from all three leads is top level. Short season was perfect, no filler.

This one really got under my skin. The whole “sacrifice 17 to save billions” thing is the kind of moral trap that keeps you up at night. I felt bad for the lawyer the most. Imagine defending the person who might be your child’s last chance, but knowing what he did. That episode called “A Savior’s Quagmire” destroyed me. Ryeo Un’s character is so cold and confident, it’s disturbing. Prosecutor was badass though, never once considered mercy. Good pacing, great cast, adaptation feels tight. If you like heavy thrillers, don’t skip this.

Okay I have to say it – I actually felt some sympathy for the killer by the end, which freaks me out. Not because murder is okay, but because his research sounded like it could actually work. The show makes you uncomfortable on purpose. The prosecutor was too stubborn sometimes, but I get why. The lawyer’s story is the strongest part, his face when he talks about his daughter breaks you. Short and sharp, no boring parts. Ryeo Un deserves more lead roles after this. Solid watch.

Just finished it. This drama doesn’t hold your hand. It throws hard questions at you and lets you sit with them. Is one life worth billions? Is justice more important than a cure? The killer is creepy smart, prosecutor is iron strong, and the lawyer is the broken human in the middle. Loved how they didn’t make anyone fully right or wrong. 8 episodes was exactly right length. Cast chemistry works even when they hate each other. Going to recommend this to my friends who like dark stuff.

Not gonna lie, I cried during the lawyer scenes with his daughter. The way he has to defend that murderer every day while hoping for a miracle is brutal. The show balances the thriller parts with real family pain very well. Killer’s calm explanations gave me chills. Prosecutor never wavered, which made her stand out. Good direction, tight script. Watched on KOCOWA+, no regrets. One of the best 2026 releases so far.

HE'S A MONSTER! He convinced me when he said, "They're not murders. They're research." I was like: "Lock him up and throw away the key!"
