When the Camellia Blooms

One of my favourite dramas of the year! The characters were lovely and this drama had the perfect mix of action, comedy and romance.

This was truly a drama deserving and worthy of its praise. It would definitely join those note-worthy dramas that people know and are on the tip of the mouth. After watching this finale episode and really thinking about it - I am amazed at what this drama has done. Usually a movie or drama, would just touch on the genre it is focusing on and make you experience that emotions associated with it. For example, thriller = being scared, comedy = laughter, happiness, mystery = anxiety, on the edge of seat, adventure/action = excited, exhilarating, etc. However, When the Camellia Blooms, surpass and exceeded that sort of boundary. Looking back and thinking about it now, this is probably one of the very few dramas, that seems to have gone beyond its supposed "genre" and made me feel every single emotion that can be felt. From melancholy, to despair, to anger, to frustration, to anxiety, to laughter, to happiness, to excitement, to happiness; and most importantly to have another kind of understanding of what love is, what love can be, and how to feel and express it.
