I am so late for this review. It's been a while since I watched it on KBS World. But thanks to ABS-CBN I got to see parts I haven't seen on KBS.
I won't get on the details anymore. I'll just go straight to the point. I really did not like the cast at first. I thought of them as no match for the Hanadan version. But after watching them, I got to love them. I even loved Yoon Ji Hoo played by Kim Hyun Joong. But he still won't beat my love for Domyouji Tsukasa played by Matsujun. Hehe!
This Korean version had the edge on how they presented the story, as per my supervisor, and I agree with that. The whole story became more dramatic and had their funny moments on the side. To compress season 1 and 2 of hanadan work for BOF.
But the only thing I hated from this was the ending. Every good story should have a good ending. This ended like BLAH. As in BLAH. You would say..."that was it??????" Hanadan ended with grandeur. It ended with a movie and you were sure what happened to the couple in the end. So that was my only complain though. But Hanadan will always be the best for me but Meteor Garden was certainly my first love.
