About this episode

Maddie and Christina provide their final thoughts on 'When the Camellia Blooms', discussing character relationships and the drama's second half.

Maddie & Christina are back for their FINAL review of When the Camellia Blooms 🌺✨ — and they definitely have thoughts. 👀 💛 Yong-sik & Dong-baek? They were obsessed. 🥺 Pil-gu & Dong-baek’s mother-son relationship? Absolutely precious. 😭 Dong-baek reuniting with her mom? They were happy to see it happen. But the second half of the drama focusing on Jessica’s family and the Peanut Man redemption arc? That’s where things got a little questionable. 😅 The ladies break down everything they loved, things they weren’t totally sold on, and why they desperately needed more Yong-sik and Dong-baek scenes because those two were simply adorable. 🫶 Did the second half work for you?
