I liked this version better too... Although I did not really like the Japanese version much I think I liked the Taiwanese version because it was my personal first impression of HYD and F4. I mean I have not read the manga before watching the Taiwanese version. I still like JVKV but not as much anymore. I like Hyun Joong now.
I like all versions of Hana Yori Dango... I can't get sick of the basic plot line and the variation each version has taken on it makes me enjoy watching them all. However I was very surprised with the Korean version, I didn't expect it to be so good.. they really took advantage of the melodrama lol.. as they should since K-dramas are good at that compared to any other dramas I've ever watched XD.. but overall I equally enjoy the other versions including that OLD anime of HYD.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What the hell are you saying!
The japanese one is wayyyyy better in a lot of ways. Even though Makino isnt pretty i think that, that japanese version is much closer to the real story line. I hate the Taiwanese version. the F4 is so ugly.
Uhhmm... I also think the japanese version was better than the taiwanese ver. but i think The Jap's version of F4 didn't look any better! the only close-to-good looking f4 member there was soujiro.. and the rest were VERY ugly... the tai f4 is only half as ugly as the jap f4... Korean f4 rox!
She also played the part of the queen in the historical drama "The King and I" with Oh Man Suk. She's a pretty good actress; she blew me away with that performance.
LOL...was just reading a few comments where people thought the casting was good but they were not sure about hye sun as "makino" jandi....but after watching the 1st 2 episodes....i think the casting director should be given an award! her acting blows everyone elses out the water (and the others acting is amazing as it is!)
I disagree, The girl is really cute and very funny. The Japanese makino wasn't that funny. The Korean drama is better in my opinion, more emotions more feelings,more fun:)
I 10000% agree. Korean version is 10000% better than the japanese one in nearly every aspect. the girl is reli cute n vivid while the japanese one is not beautiful at all...though she's not very natural when she pretended to be cute in the first n second episodes,she's better now.
this girl(Goo Hyesun) was meant to be the one that yoon eunhye played in Palace (goong). before they crank in most people wanted Goo Hyesun to be in palace with Jo insung and Kang Dongwon as they have similar look with the original book
This looks like such a good show! Like GossipGirl, but about 200x better in terms of plot. Is there any channel that airs this show in U.S.? Comcast? Thanks for posting this to Youtube.
i agree! the girl should of been switched! i dont mean to say that i dislike her, i just think she didnt pull makino's role out very well! this drama is hecka good, but I personally think that the girl's acting skills is going to dump the drama! but on the other hand, everyone else and everything else is perfect... ^^ im looking forward to this!!!
min-ho!! perfect domyouji so far!! and hyunjoong as rui...perfect still!!!
i'm still having doubts about gu hye sun because i can't really see her pulling off that strong power that makino has...cause she looks a little bit weaker...but i'm still anticipating it...from the trailer, she makes a decent makino and i'll have faith in the production team for choosing her...they know why they chose her so they must've seen something in her that made it makino
I think the most important character of Doumyoji beside his selfishness and jerk is Doumyouji is very innocent, straightforward, and a little bit silly, but adorable. I can't see that in this preview.. :(
Goo Hye Sun has acted according to the manga Makino so far. I mean, I read the manga, I can imagine her as Makino. I think some people need to realize that Korean adaptation is based on manga, not on Japanese live action.
Actually, the korean version is pretty accurate if you excuse a couple of minor details. Storyline/plotlinewise, they're including a lot of events that the j-drama failed to include because of plot changes or other restraints.
I think Koo hye Sun is perfect for the role.Anybody who had seen her in Heart of 19 would agree. Yoon Eun Hye of Goong and Coffee Prince would also fit the role.
Though I think Mao-tan is the best (no it's THE) Makino and I'm not really sure that Ku Hye-sun is fit for the role (I mean she doesn't really give off that 'weed power' and she looks old beside the fact that she IS the oldest than the rest of the F4), I think we really should try seeing it. I mean they can't just some girl to be Makino right? I think there's a reason for that.
now i can finally understand. kamsamhida. at first i had reserves on minho but now im totally in love with him! cant wait for the drama. only 10 days away!!
ahhhh!! i am excited, though the girl isnt that good at acting in my opinion, i may be proven wrong when the drama really comes up, i am still enjoying it....yes!! jun pyo is hot!!!
i like the violin bg music. the only thing that bugs me is that you don't see gun jun pyo/domyouji's brash stupid lovable charm. the actor has got the whole cold jerk thing down so far, but the main thing about his character is that not only is he a jerk, but he's also really lovable. maybe it just didn't show in the preview, but it'll be really hard to have the same kind of charm in this series without that part of his character. the rest of the characters seem okay. let's see how it goes.
OH-EM-GEE!!!!! I can't wait. Thanks for the subs. OMG I DON'T WANT TO WAIT FOR THIS!!! I wish it all came out at once so I can just watch it over and over. When it releases into dvd I'm SO ordering it, I know it!
what do you mean the sub messed up? are you korean to know that? if what you mean is the english grammar at the end.. domyouji/junpyo was known to be bad at his language..if your an HYD fan you suppose to know that.. from manga,MG,HYD and anime.. domyouji is good at foreign language but his weakness is his own language..
LOL. No i'm not talking about the grammar or anything else about how it was subbed. It's just that HOW the subs appear... I can't read them cause there was this one sentence that blocked the second line. I hope you get what I mean ROFL.
oh sorry for misunderstanding, you have a lots of negative so i thought what you said is like how the translator translate it..so sorry..well i don't know why they gave you negative so i respond..to know thats why i ask if what you mean is the eng grammar..
minho's so good! sadly hes like the only character im satisfied with. "makino" doesnt feel right for some reason....maybe a bit too exaggerated? and HJ seems quite raw but then again rui is like that anyway. Kimbum is too cute and sweet to play tough and cocky hehe. seems like they are following the taiwanese version very closely instead of the japanese version. more drama. lol
they actually following the manga.. it looks like they following taiwanese version because taiwanese version is also followed the manga..out of past 2 version..meteor garden is the one very close to manga..HYD really change theirs even though the manga came to japan.. 1 scene i remember in manga is the part when domyouji saw rui kissing makino..in MG..i saw that scene even here in korean..but in japanese they didn't..so practically they didn't much follow the manga..
yeah i think the japanese tends to simplify the "drama" in dramas and focus less on lovey dovey stuff. but in order to satisfy us fans, the korean version must have loads of lovey scenes. hehe all the better for me... :P
i agree.. i want more lovey scenes from the leads so they can really show that they were in love..actually the only part i hated in japanese.. is the fact that they don't have much lovey scenes to show they really in love with eachother..
oh mah gosh..it's so freakin goooooooodddddddddddd~~~ I can remember every part from the original Manga ..just watchin this.. I know which part it is..and .. gosh..it's just so amazing.>I can't waitt~~
Hmm...I'm not sure why you're unable to see the subtitles. They work for me, and I've tried testing it on other computers and different browsers (IE, Safari, and Firefox), and the subtitles show up fine. Perhaps the closed captions (CC) option is turned off? I had to manually turn on the CC option in order to see the subtitles when using IE, whereas in Safari/Firefox, CC option was automatically turned on. What browser do you use?
hyesun is so cute and yes, she pulls off the character quite nicely! lee min-ho reminds me of jerry yan in mg - they really fit as a couple! looking forward to this debut, can't wait!!!
