Boys Over Flowers!! :)

This was the very first Asian drama that I saw, so it's going to be the first one I write about!

This story is from the manga, Hana Yori Dango, which is Japanese. Now this has been made in a lot of languages, like Taiwanese which is Meteor Garden and Japanese which is Hana Yori Dango. If you've seen one of the others, still watch this one, because they still have their own take on this.

The story is quite cute and it got me hooked. I found that in most dramas, I don't like to watch every little detail and I don't really care about the story of the other characters. Even though this is the first drama I watched, I watched every second of it. There are a few sub stories and it feels like these characters are never going to have happy moments, but it keeps you wanting more all the same.

The story is about Geum Jan Di, a poor girl, and Goo Jun Pyo, a very rich and arrogant boy. Well, it's isn't your average, rich boy meets poor girl and they fall in love story. I mean it is, but not in the beginning at least. Most people say that the story is about Geum Jan Di and the F4 which inclues Goo Jun Pyo, Ji Hoo, Yi Jung, and Woo Bin. I guess it kind of is, but it's really just about Jan Di and Jun Pyo, and my favorite, Ji Hoo.

You'd think that the whole drama was about how Jun Pyo falls for Jan Di and how he tries to make her his, but it's more! It's about all the hardships that come with their status. It's like a Korean Romeo and Juliet almost.

I don't want to ruin the whole thing for you though.

At first, I didn't like curly head Jun Pyo who is played by Lee Min Ho. His curls look perfect...perfectly fake. I didn't like how he treated Jan Di and really thought his love was a lie. Being the "leader" of F4, I didn't like him even more. He's the childish one really. Now Lee Min Ho, he's a phenomenal actor. And he has straight hair....

But because of his role in the beginning, I found my favorite character for this drama. Here comes in Ji Hoo. According to Woo Bin or Kim Jun, he's the 4 dimensional character. He's really just perfect in every way. In the beginning, he treats Jan Di the same way...until he sees the sweet little girl she is. His hair annoyed me a little, but it was like they read my mind, because it changes half way through the drama. I wish it were the same for curly head. He's my favorite like I said, and I feel like he has it the worst throughout. He's the sweetest and he gets hurt the most. He knows what to fight for and you can really tell that he thinks of others first.

Ji Hoo is played by none other then Kim Hyun Joong, who is also a k-pop singer. I didn't really....appreciate...his voice in the drama but after hearing him sing now, omg I melt. I wish he acted more, seriously.

Then comes Ki Bum, who plays the Casanova, Yi Jung. You can tell that he loves his friends and that he would do anything for them. But he's really the player here. I like his role, and I think he's a great actor, but I hate they way he treats girls. After looking at everyone so far, you realize that they have all had a rough past, although they are filthy freaking rich. He doesn't really have a big role, but i'm always glad when he does show up. He has a bigger role then our next guy too.

This leads me to Woo Bin who is played by Kim Jun. You know, there is always that guy who tries to talk English in these dramas. In this drama, it's him. He's like the Don Juan and more like the gangster guy. He has a rough past too, but he fights for his friends till the end and it's all too cute. I wish he had a bigger role. He's always with Yi Jung too...

Finally, there is Jan Di, who is played by Koo Hye Sung. She's just one of those characters that you can't really hate. Well actually, you can debate that. There's something about here that seems off. She plays a strong female lead which I really love. I hate dramas that make the girl looks pathetic and desperate. In this, she sticks up for what is right and I love her attitude. I think that she makes people happy but she hurts them equally in the drama.

Overall, this drama is worth while thing to see. I usually skip a lot, but I loved watching every second. The characters here have all acted so well that I really just love the ones that need the love and hate that ones that really just push it. I'm happy that this was my first drama.

If you have time, please watch! It's a cute story and it literally makes your heart melt. I really wish they could have made a season 2!

I tried to watch the other dramas that these guys have acted in, but I really think that this group is untouchable. They just made this amazing drama that I don't really think can be replaced. It's not my absolute favorite drama, but it's really high up on my list. And boy, I've got a long list.

Thanks for reading <3
