The Twin Flower Legend (2020)

Annoying characters

Okay so I've only watched about one half of this drama and it's too late to back out because then I'd feel like I wasted my time but I also lowkey feel like I'm wasting my time continuing to watch this drama. Anyways .......

1) The beginning episodes with the kids were so good, it was interesting and every character seemed cool. I loved the kid squad as in my opinion, they were better actors/actresses than the grown up actors/actresses. I wished that they didn't grow up too early. The female lead is so boring compared to literally everybody else omg. It felt like the child her and the grown up her are two different people. The purple eyed girl in my opinion should've been the FL because her story arc is more interesting and in my opinion, she acts better. The male lead feibai omg, he is so stoic and awkward like the romance scenes just look weird. Also, there was barely any romance bt him and FL; there was more romance w/ him or shall I say his twin with purple eye girl. Anyways, I don't see the necessity of him being a twin like it's extra misunderstanding and complications for nothing. The purple eye girl deserved better! The FL's brother is annoying as hell and I felt bad for Jin Xiu for liking him but also it's gross bc they're cousins. Oh btw there really shouldn't have been rape scenes like the director/screenwriters need to chill. The purple eyed guy is also annoying like be your king and stop messing around omg. The other support characters are blah and meh as well.

2) The storyline is annoying in my opinion. There shouldn't have been too many complications and misunderstandings like everything could've been solved in .1 sec if feibai and his twin explained everything. Also lets be real a lot of us are watching for romance and the romance is not there. The romance between all the characters are so dull and awkward except for Jin Xiu in my opinion lol I felt for her but she was lowkey really desperate and needed to chill. I also don't understand why every single male wanted to be with the FL. Like sure she's smart and pretty but there are so many other pretty girls like how is she being fancied by all the males! it's annoying, especially when she has literally no screen time with the ML. The political power is meh like you would expect in any power hierarchy drama. It's just frustrating to say the least.

3) It's kind of predictable and you know the purple eye sister will be evil and probably sad ending. The FL will end up with the ML bc the ML will probably die for her once or twice but not really. Jin Xiu and the FL's brother will probably not have a happy ending bc he don't love her. The red eyed prince will probably end with Bi Ying. The purple eyed prince will probably die or end up being king and sad.

4) Take my opinions as you wish and I do not mean to bash this drama although I already am but maybe the other half will be better so I will definitely come back and change this rating. :)


I am coming back after fast forwarding 20 episodes and I hate this drama with all of my passion.

1) FL and ML have no chemistry whatsoever like they’ve been apart for so long and I still don’t understand why FL is in love with ML. She should be in love with the purple eyed prince like they went through so much more than her and ML. The cross dressing was okay and funny at first but then it got so fucking draggy and annoying like did we really need ten episodes of them hiding omg like bruh.

2) I have a problem with the FL being the innocent typical goody two shoes that gets blamed for things and try to be like no it’s not me but doesn’t really try to fix the problem or whatever. She just lacks motivation and ambition and it’s like watching a character being dragged around by everyone but everyone needs her for some reason. Not to mention like why does so many people like her lol, the other girls are like able too. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again Jin Xiu deserved better than that piece of trash. BiYing or whatever her name is had a decent story arc but when she saw her mother lol her mother low key looks younger or her age so it was weird to watch. It’s also annoying that she believes everyone and is like a flower that bends in whatever direction the wind blows. Her love story with the red eyed prince was just weird and annoying like they’re adults they just need to communicate but they kept hiding their true emotions.

3) Second FL has every right to be evil and I’m glad she’s evil bc at least her character has some depth but honestly she deserves so much better than FL. I think she’ll have a bad ending but I’m so sick of FL omg. I’m so annoyed at how everyone is jealous of FL bc it’s annoying and it’s the roots of all problem. It’s just super cliche and honestly she isn’t that special lol.

4) ML dad pisses me off bc don’t he need the six kids to make him king or whatever so why he trynna kill them like what do you want bruh?!?! I’m just done with this drama and stupid plot. This drama couldve easily been 30 episodes like everything was so dragged out for no fucking reason and it’s 2/3 done but there really hasn’t been much action lol. Also FL is doing nothing for so long it’s getting so annoying like don’t u want to revenge for ur parents? She literally witnessed her mother fall to her death but has to motivation to do anything. It’s annoying that her motivation towards the end of the drama is love and it’s not being convincing love like u barely had scenes with ML. I am so annoyed lol anyways I hope y’all don’t wasted our time on this trash smh.



I finished this drama and I want to take back the time I fast forward this drama omg I would rather have someone slap me than watch this drama if I could turn back time. The FL honestly I don’t think she was remotely cunning like everyone else was just mad dumb and annoying that’s why the FL looks smart. The fact that none really died while they should’ve made me annoyed lmfao. Honestly, this drama can go away. I had high expectations but was met with so much utter bs I am so annoyed lol. I highly recommend that you do not watch this drama and save your time. Doing chores or working out is better than watching this.

Unique story to each character and very original plot (only if logic isn't used when watching)

This is the first time I've seen a drama where every review left here is below 5. As someone who has watched approximately more than 200 dramas under my profile, I can say this was not that bad. Yes, I admit the story itself was messy because there were way too many characters to keep track of. BUT, if you watched every minute of it until the end (and did not pay attention to the flaws of course), then you will realize that the story itself actually revolves around the brother/sisterhood of the 5 of them. The romance is there but to build on each of their unique characters in terms of how they became bad I guess...because that is reality, not everyone will walk the same path.

Many reviews complain why the purple eye girl isn't the main character because she was physically special (her eye colour) and how that didn't come with any superpowers. All I can say is that her eye colour didn't exist for no reason. In the story, it was there as a defect/deformity and the explanation to why she was treated badly by others and as a sign of bad luck... which then comes to explains why she went down the wrong path later in the story. Also, many people complained about why so many male characters liked the main female lead when she was such a boring character. My explanation is that she is 1. Beautiful and 2. Kindhearted. There were 5 who liked her in total and if you have watched dramas like Handsome Siblings or Heavenly Sword and Dragon Sabre, around 5 female characters also fall in love with the male lead and that number is normal. But what I liked about this drama is these male characters move on and come to like a different girl rather than blindly like the main female lead until the end of the story. Although the female lead lacked characterisation that differentiate her as the very main character, in the latter half of the drama, this improved. Her intelligence and wits was shown and if you have watched General and I, she reminded me of Bai Pingting. The pacing of the drama was not slow at all to me and I reckon it was because it told many stories within the story (about other characters) and that detail made it unique because it explained every character and their importance in the story such as why they exist and why they act this certain way. This way, the story doesn't rely completely on the leads (especially if you found their characters/romance/story boring). Every bad character in this also had their own reasons which are covered in detail in the drama and that's why I can feel for them compared to bad characters in other dramas. The ending was the best part of this drama and it was beautifully scripted; every character, both good and bad, had a very happy ending.

Overall, I enjoyed the drama from start to finish but I wouldn't recommend it to those who haven't watched many similar types of dramas in the same genre like I have. This is because those that have seen many would enjoy it more without using logic to criticise these types of long dramas.
