Meteor Garden & Meteor Garden 2

Meteor Garden is the same drama as Boys Over Flowers and Hana Yori Dango, but just the Taiwaneese version of it. So you can go and read that.

Meteor garden 2 was a lot different from Boys Over Flowes and Hana Yori Dango. In the beginnig Daoming Si and Shanchai went to Barselona to a vacation. There when Si was on his way to one church where Shanchai was waiting for him, he got into a car accident. He lost his memory and a nice girl Yesha helped hin since she was the other one in the accident.
Shanchai was now alone in Barselona waiting for Si, who didn't even remember her. She called to Huaza Lei, who was Si's best friend and Lei came with Meizuo and Ximen (they were all together F4) to Barselona and tryed to find Si. They couldn't find him and then they found out that he was in Taiwan and left to there. They tryet every way to find the missing Si, who was now living with Yesha. He soon fell in love with Yesha since he couldn't remember the real love of his life, Shanchai.
Shanchai got a lot help from F4 of her searching. Soon she got a new friend Yesha. They became really good friends and Yesha came to work to the same cacke shop as Shanchai.
Then Shanchai met Si, but he still couldn't remember anything. Shanchai tryed her best to make him to remember her.
At the same time Yesha found out that she'll die. She had a bad diseace and she would die in 3 months.
Si's mother made a deal with Yesha that she would marry Si since Yesha is the princess of Butan. She says yes since Si's mother promises to let Shanchai to work in her company where Si's working. Yesha wants Si to remember Shanchai.
It takes a long time but then Si remember's his love to Shanchai, but he also love's Yesha. Shanchai went to the countryside with Lei and then Si finds Shancai and he wants to know does Shanchai love him still. She does but still Si leaves with Yesha who's really sick now. They started to travel the world and Shanchai just went to work in travelling agency.
Si come's back just when Shanchais is leaving to Japan with a tourist group. She anyways gets a new direction and ends up to Barcelona. There she thinks a lot of her first trip to Barcelona with Si and soon she meets him there.


I liked a lot of Meteor Garden, but the Meteor Garden 2 wasnt that good. It was too long and it didn't move on as fast as I would have liked. It was okay but not that good. I would say that if you have watched the Meteor Garden you could watch Meteor Garden 2, but I'm warning you it'll ruin the end of Meteor Garden and turn it all kind of sad and weird.

Ikemen Desu Ne

Ikemen Desu ne is the same show as 'You're beautiful', but just Japaneese version. The idea is same. (You can just scroll down and see what happens in the Korean version.)

I really liked the drama. It was weird to watch it when it was still a bit different, but this was good too. I would say that I liked the Korean versio more, but this one was really good too. It was shorter than Korean but it really didn't matter much. 

Main Cast:

Miori Takimoto - Mio/Miko Sakuraba (leading female)
Yuta Tamamori - Ren Katsuragi (leading male)
Taisuke Fujigaya - Shu Fijishiro (the guitarrist of the band & in love with Mio/Miko)
Hikaru Yaotome - Yuuki Hongo (the drummer of the band & in love with Mio/Miko)

Hana Kimi Taiwan

So Hana Kimi Taiwan is about the same show as Hanazakari no Kimitouchi e, but just Taiwaneese version. The story is about the same, but there is small differences.

I really like this version too. It was longer than Hana Kimi Japan. I mostly like in this version that Lu Rui Xi (the leading girl) and Zuo Yi Quan's relation ship was a lot warmer than the Japaneese version. What I hated was the ending. I was really suprised that it alreadyd ended. I really hated it. It felt like they didn't explane anything at the end,

Main Cast:

Ella Chen - Lu Rui Xi
Wu Chun - Zuo Yi Quan
Jiro Wang - Jin Xiu Yi
Yi Quan (Wu Chun), Rui Xi (Ella Chen), Xiu Yi (Yiro Wang)

She came to Japan so that she could get Izumi Sano to high jump again. Sano met an accident in America a while ago and after that he couldn't anymore jump. He got hurt while he was trying to save Ashia.

Finally Nakatsu finds out that Ashia is a girl. He and Sano tryes to help her so that she won't be found out by other one's. Finally everyone get's to know. Everybody starts to hate Ashia from lying to them, until Sano explanes why she is there.
After some time Ashia desides to leave the school before some more trouble would come. At the airport when Sano was taking her there they finally kiss'es.

I really really loved this drama. It's one of my favorites. It was so funny. It was only 11 episodes + one extra episode. In the drama the story wasn't the greatest, but it was really hillarious and the little things made it so good. I recommend it to everyone who isn't boring and like's funny stuff.

Playful Kiss / Mischievous Kiss

Playful Kiss is a story about a girl who had loved a boy from the first day in the school. They are really different. The girl, Oh Ha Ni, is a bit dumb and really careless, when the boy, Baek Seung Joon, is really smart and can do pretty much everything. Ha Ni's house collapset at a earthquake. Her father arranged them to live at his friends house and it probably won't suprise anyone that Ha Ni's father's friends son is of course Seung Joon. She finds out that he's really cold torwards Ha Ni. He knows that Ha Ni likes him since she had gave him a love letter, which he gave back and he had corrected the misspellings. Seung Joon's little brother doesn't like Ha Ni. He finds her annoying and stupid. Seung Joon's mother in other hand really loves Ha Ni. She have always wanted to have a daughter and now a sweet Ha Ni came. 
Soon their high school was over and they needed to get to college's. They end up going to same college. In there is also Seung Joon's old friend, Joon Hae Ra, who's like female Seung Joon. She's smart and pretty. Ha Ni is immidiatley jelouse to her.

They went to hneymoon and there they met a weird couple. The women was immidiatley in love with Seung Joon  and her new husband was fine with it. Seung Joon and Ha Ni had a fight over it, but Seung Joon needed to admit that he was wrong at last.

I realli liked this drama. It was really funny and easy to watch. I just have the problem that I got embarassed for Ha Ni, so if you're like me in this it's sometimes really hard to watch it. It was mostly nice. The thing that I didn't like that much was that Ha Ni was a bit too obsessed over Seung Joon. I recommend it to anyone who like's something really fun and embarassing.
