Flower of Evil (Manhwa)

Even now traces of emotion loom in me from this tale and I have found it hard to read happy romance shoujo for the rest of the next day. A fantastic story that may change your life, if not you life then at least leave a feeling long after you have closed the book or shut down your browser.

I'm not really sure now why I gave this an overall 8 because as this story settles in my mind it gets better.

I found the story at some point to feel like something I have read or seen before, but caught myself thinking maybe not. To elaborate on the synopsis, Se- Joon and Se- Wa are fraternal twins, whose close relationship tests taboos and social ethics. With the introduction of an old school friend both of them start to go separate ways, at the dislike of the other.Many times I thought the plot was going one way and I had it all figured out all to be mistaken a few pages later. I don't want to say too much it is a journey to discover.

The art is breath taking, as well as both Se- wa and Se- Joon being beautiful, to the point of just looking at their faces wants to make you cry. A lot of other characters are good looking as well and some aren't. It portrays emotion well and helps carry the tenderness of the story.

This story will carry you away and you will get caught up, I thought I would read it over two nights but knew I just had to finish it and read it all in one. If you have read this far, then take a step outside of what may be your norm and I believe you will find a gem.
