A Boy Named Flora A is a Taiwanese television series that made its global debut in 2017. The series originally aired on Taiwan's Public Television Service and continued its influence through online platforms including Netflix, rapidly gaining a world-wide audience with its earthly charm, astute humor and relatable everyday struggles.
