Japan's Hana Yori Dango, Taiwan's Meteor Garden and Korea's Boys Over Flowers

Hi,

I have first read the manga, after I watched the anime.
Than I've watched the Japanese drama and the Taiwanese one. I didn't watch the korean version.

I liked the japanese version best, and I think Matsumoto Jun is perfect for the role. I didn't like him at first, and as I've seen the first scenes I thought "Who is that ugly guy playing Domyoji?" But soon I got used to him and I found out his great acting skills. I didn't quite like the Daomingsi in the Taiwan version. He is not half as funny as the original manga version, and soon his hairs goes down and he is just normal. It must be said that the Taiwan version was made first. The Japanese one had time to correct all that particulars that were bad in the first version.

Another thing. I don't like that Meteor Garden2 has almost nothing to do with the original story.

Ohhhhhhhhhh where have you been? Did you go along with these Dango, Meteor Garden and Boy's over Flower?..I sometimes happen to view this Boy's...whenever my wife watch it but to other you mention I don't know them...welcome back sister...

I've only watched the whole episode of Meteor Garden, but I hardly remember their names in the show, lol. I actually get addicted to it and I try my best not to missed any of it. I haven't heard or seen the Hana Yori Dango and Boys Over Flowers, it maybe showed when I'm not in our country.

I love the Korean version. I think because it's the latest and more funny and better because you could really see that it was a big production. Plus, not to mention that the boys are a lot cuter.

hi djoyce!
i like meteor garden with f4...its only because that's the only one that i have watched...i was not able to watch the other 2 coz i am not really a fan of the station airing it...
but they say boys over flowers are also great...but still i go for meteor garden...
just love dao ming zu...hehehe

My friends all love Boys Over Flowers, but the usually watch or read Japanese dramas, animes, or mangas.

Hi, I've watched the Japanese version and the Korean version. I prefer the Korean version over the jap verison. a LOT. Maybe I'm just biased, but the Korean version seems, much more natural? I don't know. But I do know that the Korean version was EXTREMELY popular.

Yes I loved the Korea's Boys Over Flowers.I witnessed how Taiwan's Meteor Garden influenced the youth, but I seldom watched it.But now that there is the Korean version, I really loved watching it.I do not know but i loved Korean telenovelas more than any other else.

i agree, the three versions were all different in their own way but i enjoyed all of them. I haven't finished the korean version but i'm already a fan of the stars, they're so good and they fit the characters well, can't wait fir the ending!:)

Hi there, well among the three i like Taiwan's Meteor Garden. As far as i remember thats the first asian novelas that aired in the Philippines (not sure) and it was really click here. I watched the whole stories including the part 2 of it and not contented i bought the dvd of meteor garden . I like the story its so cute, well now i am watching Boys Over Flowers but i dont it everyday because i have some important things to do but i want to get a copy of it. Maybe i should buy a dvd of Boys Over Flowers hope i can get one. I dont see it more often but i can see the story was beautiful also like meteor so i will buy for the dvd of it and compare which is really the best. I havent see Hana Yori Dango so dont have anything to say about that. Well till here, keep on posting good discussion and happy mylotting
