The most highly anticipated series, “the Korean Hana Yori Dango“, has now locked down on their cast. We all know that Gu Hye Seon is going to play Makino Tsukushi but who else is there? Han Chae Young has been casted to play Kim Hyun Joong’s love interest (Todo Shizuka is Hanazawa Rui’s love interest), Kim So Eun will play Gu Hye Seon’s best friend (Matsuoka Yuki) and last but not least are Kim Hyun Joo as Lee Min Ho’s older sister (Domyouji Tsubaki) and Jeon In Hwa as his mom (Domyouji Kaede).

I’m really disappointed with the F4 boys after hearing about the ladies but I have high hopes for the other parts of the series. Looking at screenshots it seems that they’ll be copying the original story almost exactly.

Unlike Meteor Garden (Taiwanese version), this HYD version will be set in High School like the original story. Also while the Japanese HYD didn’t go to the states till the 2nd season, Korea has stepped up by filming in the states already.

They’re really pretty.


They look too old to be HS students.


I kind of want to watch HYD all over again. :D


The girl who is playing Todo Shizuka is cute but I like the Japanese one better.


They do look older than their previous character reps but they are the more attractive of the reps.


I think they’re all pretty. I’m really excited for this series!


How many seasons do they plan to do?


I think it all depends if it does well.


Korea usually do melodramas well.


Are they still going to called it Boys over Flowers?


I think so. Everyone knows it as HYD.


I think they have another name for it but nobody calls it that.
