Me too, Flower! (2011)

Excellent drama (romantique, comédie/drame)

Un drama qui commence en comédie romantique, mais se poursuit assez vite sur un ton plus lourd.
Excellent casting (le ML, Yoon Shi Yoon est formidable) y compris tous les personnages secondaires qui sont bien développés. La romance du CL est drôle, puis émouvante, et leur alchimie est palpable.

La storyline est assez classique d'un KDrama :
- contexte de la fabrication des sacs de luxe,
- accident => responsabilité => abus de pouvoir
- triangle amoureux
- différence de statut (social, âge, etc.)
- parents hyperpotents.

Mais l'histoire est bien menée, la psychologie des personnages est cohérente, et le talent des acteurs nous fait vivre cette tranche de vie avec émotions.
Les OST sont bonnes, sans être mémorables, mais accompagnent bien les émotions transmises.

Je ne pense pas le regarder à nouveau même si je suis fan de YSY, car je visionne rarement les séries plusieurs fois (sauf quelques séries culte) :)

En conclusion, un très bon drama que vous regarderez avec plaisir.

Me Too Flower is a conundrum for me. When this drama started out I was extremely pleased and excited for every episode.

I loved the original story line. Yes..I do believe it is an original story line: The fact the Jae Hui is rich but a self made man and not a chaebol, the fact that he was a nice man...simply a bit messed up from his past, the plot point of Cha Bong Sun and her need to see a counselor and her very stubborn personality and their coming together as a couple. Also, Cha Bong Sun may have had problems but she was a strong independent woman who had her own career. All of those elements came together in a very non standard Kdrama way. That pleased the heck out of me.

I loved the acting. Yoon Si Yoon was really good in King Of Baking and he was even better in this. He came into this part as a last minute add on and OWNED this part! He was excellent all the way through. Lee Ji Ah was a dichotomy of likable, sweet girl and grumpy jaded woman. And I liked that! I found her a refreshing change from the typical overly happy and good heroine. She felt real to me.

The acting was solid by the whole cast and I gave it a 10. The character development of the two leads was solid all the way through. Their chemistry was addicting as a viewer. I was rooting for them every step of the way.

Up until about 1/2 way through this drama I was a voracious addicted fiend...practically going through withdrawals until the next episode was subbed. But then something happened to the writing that went a little off for me and wilted the flower. The character of Hwa Young and the decision to set into this original story the very non original element of a scheming jealous woman. That is regrettable and why I can't give Me Too Flower a higher score than 8. She killed some of my love for this drama and I absolutely hate having to say it, but it's true.

The technical aspects of this drama were great. All except that one aspect I mentioned in the writing so I have no other complaints.

The OST is excellent! Right down the line..every song was lovely and fit this drama to a T. Especially "Dreaming" I loved the soundtrack to pieces.

My re-watch value I place at a 7 (good) because there are so many episodes of this drama I would re-watch in a heartbeat...especially 1 through 8 and again the last two. The chunk in the middle I want to rage at.

Do I recommend this? Highly. This drama is really good. I think if I had waited until it all aired and dramathoned it, maybe those episodes in the middle wouldn't have felt quite so agonizing. Give this drama a try...You won't regret it. There is so much to like about Me Too Flower.
