Got to say, I am thrilled to see the Korean drama Like Flowers in Sand, Episode 8 earning its highest rating yet in South Korea last night.
The ENA drama premiered on December 20th to a 1.48 percent rating that began to rise substantially with Episode 6.
Now with Like Flowers in Sand, Episode 8, the Korean drama earned 2.39 percent – it’s highest rating so far, and one that put it in second place in its time slot.
With just four more episodes of the 12-episode drama to air, now is the time for more viewers to find out just how good it has been.
Meanwhile over on Netflix, where Like Flowers in Sand has been streaming for the last four weeks, the K-drama has been in the Top 10 in South Korea for most of this week.

a comment that was made after Episode 8 aired last night, and:
If last four episodes are written (at least) as well as the rest (the acting is perfect, I’m not worried about that), I’m pretty sure it will become one of my favourite dramas of all time.
and
Totally quirky show but, so far, absolutely delightful in its simplicity. Glad I stumbled into it.
