Why does the female lead of the TV drama "Hotel De Luna" send the male lead evening primrose?
The South Korean drama "Hotel De Luna" has just premiered, with only two episodes released so far, but the plot is quite intense, especially when the ghost appears, which can be quite startling. In the drama, the female lead sends the male lead an evening primrose every year on his birthday. Why does she do this? What is the meaning of the evening primrose flower? Let's find out together.
Meaning of evening primrose flower:
Silent love, beauty after a bath
There is a saying about the symbolism of the evening primrose flower. When a woman gives an evening primrose to a man, it represents "silent love." Another common saying is that it signifies a free-spirited heart, someone who likes to wander freely without strings attached, not seeking long-term happiness, but rather momentary passion, which can ignite one's enthusiasm. Emotionally, you are like a breeze with no fixed direction, never forcing anything on the opposite sex. Some also say that the meaning of the evening primrose flower is "beauty after a bath" magic.
The evening primrose is also known as the "night-blooming herb," "mountain sesame," and "wild sesame," belonging to the Onagraceae family and the evening primrose genus.
Generally, the meaning of the evening primrose flower is silent love, but to the female lead, it is a way to convey a message to the male lead: I am watching you... It's a bit scary when you think about it, no wonder the male lead threw the flower away 20 years later when he received it.
However, this action also angered the female lead, who then cast a spell on the male lead to make him able to see ghosts. Afterward, she saves him in a heroic manner, making the male lead obedient. Netizens say, isn't this the female lead's guide to raising a son-in-law from childhood?
