I finished both #flourishedpeony and #inthenameofblossom
2nd season is not as good as 1rst and suffers pacing issues. But the last 7 episodes are great, with a super satisfying ending. All in all a very nice watch, with memorable characters, storylines & relationships but also absolutely gorgeous AD

Watching ep 17 of #inthenameofblossom and I'm bored with the back and forth between the leads. The noble sacrifice of the ML & the way he perpetually rejects the FL are infuriating. The scenes lose all of tension bc I'm so annoyed with him. It's been 50 episodes and not even a kiss, come on! #cdrama

#Cdrama RoundUp: Finished #FlourishedPeony & #InTheNameOfBlossom THANK GOD. The levels of trauma & gendered violence were astronomical. Instead of starting a new thing & running out of ongoing episodes, I looked for something fluffy & older. Settled on #NewLifeBegins which is a good palate cleanser.

If you are triggered by gendered violence, SA, misogyny, repeated unending burdens on places on women, have I got a show for you to avoid! #Cdrama #FlourishedPeony which continues in season 2 called #InTheNameOfBlossom is like being hit in the face with a misogyny stick over & over again. OUCH.

Just a question Dani - at the risk of sounding obsessed with this topic! - but considering you gave both parts of #FlourishedPeony (ie, #InTheNameofBlossom too) a 10, why didn’t it feature in your end of year top 10 (most of which you rated lower than that)?
Did your appreciation for it drop off?

I guess one reason I can think of for downgrading FP is that part 2 - #InTheNameofBlossom - was a relative disappointment (a victim of the 40 episode rule)
It didn’t reach the same heights as part 1 - so if one considers them as a whole story, I can understand why this counts against it

I'm choosing Yang Zi. Yes, she's worked for years & is not new to the scene, however I had managed to not see any of her works until 2025. She was in 3 of the best that I've seen this year #FlourishedPeony, #InTheNameOfBlossom & #ImmortalSamsara.

OK. A bit of a leftfield suggestion perhaps, but have you considered #FlourishedPeony? (I just mean the first season, as S2 #InTheNameOfBlossom is much much more palace intrigue-y.) The romance doesn’t come to fruition in S1, but they have such great chemistry together that it doesn’t matter.

Another obsessive princess - who faced neglect from her father & unhappy circumstances, & chose to be cruel - was the one in #InTheNameOfBlossom. In her case we had to wait right to the end of the drama for her to begin to choose differently - she decides to join a female monastic group at the end

At the end of the day, the County Princess had to lose absolutely everything to be free. She was never capable of breaking away by herself. She's perhaps one of the most tragic characters I have seen as of late.
