Like Flowers in Sand

Will a wrestler rediscover his passion upon reuniting with his childhood friend?

The drama unfolds around a once-prodigal wrestler who's lost his zeal over the years. Despite daily practice, his fierce fighting spirit has waned. The arrival of a new woman in town, whom he believes to be his long-lost childhood friend, complicates matters further. She denies knowing him and harbors secrets of her own. Against a series of murders unsettling their quiet town, they both search for what truly brings them joy and fulfillment. Will they find it? This narrative promises a journey of discovery and possibly rekindled connections.

My Review….

Some dramas captivate and leave us longing for more, while others prompt us to wonder why we started watching them. Unfortunately, this drama falls into the latter category. Despite strong performances from the actors, the storyline and its development were disappointing. The narrative lacked coherence, and character development, especially that of the protagonist, was unsatisfying. While the central story had potential, it suffered from either poor direction or insufficient writing. The highlight of the drama was the portrayal of friendships. If you appreciate narratives of personal growth, this might have some appeal, but overall, it might be best to explore other options.
