Cameo Appearances

If these cast weren't enough to satisfy why this show is a must watch, the Director Kang Shin Hyo was the past director for famous 'Secret Garden' and 'A gentleman's Dignity'. The screenwriter is Kim Eun Sook


Lee Min Ho and Park Shin Hye are the lead and stars in the drama... the supporting casts has MinHyuk from CNBlue, Krystal from f(x), Kim Woo Bin, Kang Ha Neul, and many more well know actors. I thinks I remember reading that this drama use the best props, best actors/ actress, best production team and best of everything. To those who haven't seen this drama, I strongly suggest to see it.



In the dram close to the end, Lee Min Ho's character Kim Tam gave Park Shin Hye's character Cha Eun Sang a compassionate kiss, however, Shin Hye wasn't had no clue of that and it became a surprise kiss for her. check it out below:

Make sure to look at her gesture... I guess the PD wanted the reaction :)


Yup and you've guessed it, they won the best couples award :)

Henry's coming movie

Super Junior M Henry Lau is a multi-talented Chinese-Canadian Songwriter, singer, violinist and pianist... and soon to be actor. As a Torontonian myself, I feel extremely happy that someone from Toronto (so close to me yet soooooo far away) made it to stardom. His smile and all the things he could do just capture the suju family Elf's attention. Early June 2013, released his own single 'Trap' feature SHINee's Taemin and group member kyuhyun, '1 4 3' feat. F(x) Amber into his mini album.

Henry-Trap ft. Taemin and Kyuhyun



I'm sure English speakers are dying to want to know what he is singing, so Henry's original original trap is actual in English.



Henry- 1 4 3 ft. Amber



Enough with music, the cumming movie (spoken in English) called 'Final Recipe (2013) Trailer has already been released, however, the Actual movie will be released soon in 2014... I don't know when yet...



Stay tuned for more updates on Henry...

Meanwhile, Jae-Hee (Park Si-Yeon) is a reporter at HBS broadcasting company. Both Ma-Roo and Jae-Hee come from poor family backgrounds, but try hard to achieve their dreams: Ma-Roo to become a doctor and Jae-Hee to become an anchorwoman.
One day, Ma-Roo goes home and finds his sister feverishly sick. While he puts socks on his ill sister, Ma-Roo receives a phone call from Jae-Hee. Jae-Hee sounds completely frantic and asks Ma-Roo to come over to save this man. Even though Ma-Roo's sick sister begs him to not leave her, Ma-Roo rushes over to help Jae-Hee. When he arrives at the motel room, he finds Jae-Hee completely shaken and a dead man laying on the floor near her. Ma-Roo attempts to counsel Jae-Hee to turn herself in to the police. Appearing completely broken in spirit, Jae-Hee begins to call the police, but Ma-Roo hangs up the phone. He kisses Jae-Hee and then goes through the motel room to wipe away Jae-Hee's fingerprints.

Meanwhile, Eun-Gi (Moon Chae-Won) is the rich heiress a to family that owns the large corporation Taesan. She has been groomed to become the successor to the Taesan corporation and, consequently, shows very little emotions.

The series of Hana Yori Dango/Boys Over Flowers from 4 different countries.




Well the order how I watched it was really different and I guess you can say it's really weird. First it was the Japanese version that my friend had on DVD, it was interesting and at that time I didn't know there was other versions from different countries. Then I heard about Korean version's boy's over flower was a must watch. and I watched it online and I thought it was based on modern wealth and the comparison between the rich and the poor is exaggerated by a lot.Now, after that, the hot boys got me interested and so I did research on the Japanese and Korean version and I realized there was a Taiwanese version way before the production of the Japanese one. So I started watching it, the quality of the episodes was kind of laid back and the style are very different compared to the modern version of the drama.However, the plot of the series is really well thought out.Lastly, the Mainland China version has changed it's name from F4 to H4 and the character's names are different as well. And obviously, the plot was somewhat similar,the events are different, but it's all adapted from the Japanese Graphic Novel Hana Yori Dango.

Now lets go in order of production and introduce the casts:

From all this long talk, America has finished the production of the American style Hana Yori Dango... They call it Boys before Friends. I got so bored after the first few episodes... I don't think it can be compared to the Asia versions. Just my own opinion.


What do you think is the best Hana Yori show/ drama?
