TV Review: Knight Flower (2024)

Knight Flower (밤에 피는 꽃)
2024
12 episodes
MA15+
Historical Comedy
Netflix

An upper-class widow in Joseon keeps her double life as a masked vigilante under wraps -- until a government official learns of her nightly escapades.

Knight Flower was a delightful Joseon-era romp. I enjoyed the premise, which worked well throughout, and the characters and their stories were all compelling. While there was plenty of comedy, there was a lot of drama and emotion as well, along with a light romance between the two leads; although, the latter never took over from the main narrative. The series moved at a good pace throughout and concluded in a satisfying way. Perhaps it's not my favourite K-drama, but I could see myself watching it a second time in the future and still enjoying it, so I am giving it 4.5 stars. Recommended for fans of historical dramas with a lighter touch and a dose of humour.
