Does any1 else watch this? lol anyways its the #1 drama in korea right now and from the latest episode 24, kang san refers to becoming a pro gamer so his dad doesnt have to work anymore, I just thought it was kind of interesting cause I've never heard of pro gaming being referred to in a drama before.

if you measure its quality by how many girls talk about it and have male characters from the drama on their facebook profile picture ... it's pretty damn good D:
It's boys before flowers btw. kkotboda namja is the korean title (somewhat inaccurate i think)
And its the korean version of the original(?) taiwanese drama called Meteor Garden or 流星花園 I personally think dramas are naggy, like naggy bitchy women, and there is no point to watching a drama, cuz its just really fucking retarded cuz its like some retarded sympathetic crap that is really fucking dumb idk its just really gay cuz of women bitching, and it just fucking gay when I hear girls at my school go like OMG KIMBUM <333333333333 KIM BUM OMG HAWT AND OMG KIMBUM SHOULD BE WITH THAT GIRL :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i want to fucking slap them in the face with my dick and tell them to stfu

There's a Meteor Garden 2 now? O_o
Meteor Garden 2 ruined the Taiwanese series =(, too many changes (although the first season was really good). I liked Hana Yori Dango, it was actually quite funny and the movie was ok. it followed the manga quite well. And i havent had a chance to watch Boys over Flowers yet...but i heard that it gets good after the first few episodes.
if anyone was wondering why i labeled those three series, its because the show has been made in Chinese (Meteor Garden), Japanese (Hana Yori Dango) and now korean. it is also all based off of the manga.

Lol it doesn't matter. I didn't know that boys over flowers was also a valid title All teh girls at my school say either boys before flowers or kkotboda namja so yea.
They will be airing it in the Philippines next week i think. im not sure.
we already had Meteor Garden (Meteor rain too?). we already had Hana Yori Dango (OMG The girl is so cute. she also starred as misa misa in deathnote movie). and we will be having boys over flowers soon. Yes, the Philippines is on the right track.

so it's about as good as twilight?
no twilight is pretty trashy
this one at least has some unintentional humor
by good he meant getting a shitload of teenaged girls to watch it not the movie quality
I'm going to watch this just for the sake of killing those awkward silences when the girl gets all excited and says, "do you watch Boys over Flowers?!" Then when I say no see the disappointment in their eyes.
and this is no exception. honestly, i can't withstand the crap they talk about. all dramas seem so unrealistic to me. this one's pretty childish i think. rich guy, girl blah blah.
although 겨울연가 i think? A winter story? that one was good.

If you're judging based on how realistic the drama is, then 겨울연가 was just as unrealistic, and the epitome of "cliche" when it comes to korean dramas (amnesia, huge misunderstandings, etc).
This drama is purely for light fun. : ) I'm enjoying it a lot, nice mini break from the week -- plus it doesn't hurt that the male actors are very attractive hahhaa. Can't believe it's already ending this week...

did i read this right?
smix is female.
even if she wasn't that statement wouldn't surprise me anyway, what forum do you think this is?
This series is the bane of my fucking existence. I can't take it anymore. I hate it with such a burning passion, as I've described before. The main actress is ugly, and the character is stupid and hypocritical as fuck. The story is piss-poor. The acting is sub-par.
My girlfriend watches it because there are hot guys in it. It's ~1 hour/ep. I hate this fucking show.

From Wiki:
The title Hana yori Dango, more correctly "Boys before Flowers", is a pun on a Japanese saying, "Dumplings before Flowers" (花より団子, "Hana yori Dango" lit. "dango (rice dumplings) rather than flowers"). "Dumplings before flowers" is a well-known Japanese expression that refers to people who attend Hanami, but rather than enjoying the beauty of the flowers, head straight for the food vendor booths, preferring tangible things like food and drink to the abstract appreciation of the flowers’ beauty.[4] The author creates the pun by changing the kanji of the title to mean "Boys over Flowers" (花より男子 ?). Note that "boys" (男子 ?) is normally read danshi (だんし ?), but the furigana indicates that it reads dango (だんご ?).

"Boys Over Flowers" is the translation of the name of the Japanese manga. The Korean show kept that name. Not really surprising considering the mere name will draw a huge fanbase. HYD was the best selling shoujo manga ever.
hmm highschool for supermodels? korea is pretty friggin vain. As much as USA imo.
And I'm korean-canadian so I know korean culture's mentality on beauty but comeon give me a break. Even US shows sneak in some average looking people every now and then...

I don't think I've ever watched a worse drama. Dramas are supposed to be dramatic. They never have a hook at the end; instead, they just stop the episode whenever they feel like it (seems like they were doing it for time constraints).
@OP not true i remember couple of yrs bak this kid in a k drama won the regional sc tournament in the drama and won money and such (all in the context on the drama) and yeah.. there have been plenty of times when sc or progamming has been mentioned

Fansubbers @ d-addicts. Or theres plenty of forums and blogs that have HTTP/FTP links. Not sure if the torrents are well seeded, since I dont watch this show.
