Little Women: The Secrets of the Blue Orchid
What is the Blue Orchid?
As revealed in episode 4, the blue orchid is a rare and mysterious breed of orchids that was first found in the forests of Vietnam by soldiers. They tried to take these orchids with them but failed because the environment hasn’t been suitable for the flower outside of its home terrain.
Instead, the people who went behind this mysterious orchid were the ones who ended up losing their lives. If that was not enough then the location of these hard-to-find orchids was only known to some shamans among the natives.
It is said that if a layperson came across these orchids then they could be putting themselves in danger as these orchids can be used as sedatives that can become addictive later. These hallucinogenic orchids, when brewed into tea, can make a person lose their senses and fall into a deep sleep.
Shamans refer to this state as the first step to heaven which presents you with the chance to meet the spirit of your loved ones.

Download an app called Viki. It’s got soooo many Korean shows and movies.
Little woman is a good show, and it is in English, I have watched a few movies, but all in English, I don’t read fast, so I don’t bother w/ the rest 🐩🐩🇩🇰
U said it is very dangerous and it is connected to death but also u said when brewed into tea, people can lose their sense and fall into deep sleep. But in the kdrama first in joo smelled it and fall into deep sleep but after she woke up, it didn’t cause any death? how? Please reply me
Why are not all of the k-dramas dubbed in English. Once you’ve watched Little Women, you will be hooked. Clearly, the South Korean’s have an incredible knack for originality, story telling, tastefulness, dress style and politeness. There is no constant political agenda being jammed down your throat.
I hardly watch American television or movies as they have become so trite and political. American tv must now throw in some blacks, gays and let us not forget the transgenders. It’s become barfy.
You are so correct about the political correctness and throwing in gays and blacks and I’m sure transgenders will be next. I don’t watch TV anymore due to the politics. Sad state of affairs for our country.
My favourite colours is Blue.
the only plant I buy is Blue Orchids from Tesco (local Store). After watching episode 6. I saw my blue Orchid plant staring at me- It Made me think–loll
