Flower Box Next Door is a decent to good RomCom - if it ended at episodes 16s beginning/opening sequence. Overall all actors did a good job on their characters, if anything the characters themselves were a problem of mine even though that's excluding literally everyone but Enrique and Daehwi.
Personally I liked this drama because it somehow felt like I could relate to it to some extent as Dokmi and Jinrak have something to them I feel connected to - never been loved, having been an outsider, rather being by themselves than in a crowd and such. But it wasn't just charachteristics like this that made me fall for it in the first place. I was intrigued by its romantic triangle - that ultimately did go until episode 16 - but also the sometimes rather unusual way of joking and how they got them across.
Its support roles were fitting the plot and made up for some interesting storylines as well, that even benifited Jinrak's arc. That is where I wanna criticize though. His arc got totally wasted in the end and left me with no words. I grew close to the idea of him and Dokmi ending up together, especially with episode 16s opening. I even could have been fine with them not giving in to it but giving me hope last second and then not pulling through with it just doesn't fit this drama at all. This was both poorly timed and badly delivered.
As for arcs that left me feeling empty: Cha Daehwi is the other - although that is just focussing on her and Jinrak rather than her as evil counterpart to Dokmi. I do not know for what reason but I did like her even though her entire character was based around being a snake, all throughout the show. In the end Jinrak tells her something along the lines of not chasing someone for their past - as Jinrak wasn't born poor - but for the person themself. The writer threw that one under the bus real quick. No idea what to think of her ending but it's confusing completely.
Last but not least - and not regarding their arc but character - Enrique. Man at first he was kinda nice and him challenging this love triangle had a good kick to it but as the show did go on and especially in its second half he just annoyed me. Yoon's actions, how he was written to talk, all of it.
