    "Do You Hear It?. It Is The Sound Of The Flowers"

    What can I say? In my opinion, this is the best drama of the year, perhaps the best in a long time, and undoubtedly the finest historical drama. It's a beautiful, inspirational adult love story with none of the fluffy stuff. The drama takes you on an emotional rollercoaster with many heart-wrenching moments throughout. While it touches on controversial topics, it deals with them beautifully, sparking diverse opinions.

    The actors, especially the main leads, were phenomenal. The cinematography, fight scenes, and OST were amazing. Sure, you could point out some flaws in the plot, but let's be honest, most dramas have them.

    This drama has secured a spot in my top ten, a list that I often tweak based on my mood. It joins the likes of "What's Wrong with Secretary Kim," "Itaewon Class," "Fight My Way," "Hometown Cha-Cha," "Flower of Evil," "Touch Your Heart," "Vincenzo," and "Strong Girl Bong-soon."

    Honestly, I stumbled upon this drama by accident and didn't know the main leads very well. However, I watched it with an open mind and have no regrets. I found myself completely engrossed, never skipping a moment, even when the storyline got frustrating at times. The drama also boasts scenes that are worth watching over and over again.

    I highly recommend it to people who enjoy the melodrama, romance, and sageuk genres. It's a must-watch!

    Highly underrated Must watch PS.Misleading tag

    First of all it has a melodrama tag so most people like me will skip this drama. But just because of namgoong min I gave it a try. As expected first 2 episodes were kind of melodrama. But I still continued for another 2 episodes. That's when things started to go south . Episode 4 I was crying like hell . I was invested in this . This is not just melodrama. It was action , gore , thriller . Now I realised why namgoong min accepted a period drama.

    It's nothing like romantic period drama where main characters love each other and will get a happy ending and all. This is serious every character is well written. It's a must watch.

    Best of the best

    Finally, I found the most beautiful, most wonderful, and best drama, i have watched from years.

    "My dearest" As its name means, it is the dearest to my heart.

    It is the best drama, in the cast, the dialogue, and the scenes in my opinion.

    It is literally a "legendary love saga".

    I'm so sad it's over. I'll miss it so much.

    And of course I'll miss the great actors.

    Also i hope that they will receive many awards, for this amazing work.

    I would like to thank all the staff for these warm and beautiful moments that we felt while watching this legendary drama.

    There are no words can describe such beauty. It is the best in everyway.

    I hope everyone watches and enjoys this beautiful drama.

    If the cast says Nam Goon Min, I'm in.

    If it says Nam GoonMin, I'm in. I started watching him from "Remember", then "The Veil", "Doctor Prisoner"," Good Manager"... and especially last year's release "One Dollar Layer" was a top-notch masterpiece. He always knows what he's bringing to the screen. I started this drama and now I'm left even more mesmerized by his acting skills. The plot, cinematography, ost, acting... everything is so on point. Finally we got something unique after what feels like two years of boring cringe stuff. Only half of the series got aired yet, and I'm patiently looking forward to the next part. My love for Sageuk dramas has increased tremendously. Mr Queen, Red Cuff Sleeve and now My Dearest.

    Not just memorable Kdrama - just outstanding!

    I'd give My Dearest 20 stars if I could. Namkoong Min and Ahn Eun-jin turn this beautiful drama into a classic. I really don't know what to say except that if you love Kdramas My Dearest will rocket to the top of your favorites.

    Namkoong Min is such a handsome guy, but after seeing a younger version in other dramas, and then watching a more mature man in My Dearest, I am struck by his beauty and talent. Like Sean Connery, he gets better as he ages! Ahn Eun-jin is beautiful, but she shines in this drama. The two of them are my favorite drama couple ever. The supporting cast is also so well done - all top notch actors who made me forget that they were acting parts as they were so natural and believable in their roles.

    Additionally, the soundtrack for My Dearest is hauntingly beautiful. A classic in itself. I keep hearing the score because like the story, it is too special to forget.
