um marco da minha infância
um carinho por ser meu primeiro dorama. conhecia como “a lavanderia” e gostava muito, desencadeando meu amor por outros doramas. eu tenho um carinho, porém, vendo de um lado mais crítico, é meio que uma bomba. a atuação não me agradou, os atores são meio nhe, a história é indiscutivelmente confusa é INACEITÁVEL, inaceitável pelo simples fato de ela não ter ficado com o ji hoo e sim com o jun pyo, tipo, amiga, pelo jurandir?? os pontos mais marcantes na minha opinião são a ost e os visuais, porque de resto é meio nhe. porém, tirando os pontos negativos, é uma experiência, nostálgico e todo amante de dorama deveria ver isso pelo menos uma vez na vida.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
I will say that this drama also produced one after my all time favorite OTP couples. Even 8 years later I am able to delve back into this drama and be entertained. However no matter how much I love it a couple things do bother me.
1. Jan Di can be a bit much at times. For a new drama fan she may be a turn off at some points in the show. I promise though if you get through it this becomes the gateway to drama land.
2. While I liked the ost I will be happy not to have "Almost Paradise" stuck in my head for days.
Overall this drama gets an 8/10 and should be a staple in any new drama fans list.

Первая половина - школьная молодежка и начало любви. Эх, любовь-любовь, какая же ты стерва
Опа - а к середине сезона начался триллер, и стало как то не по себе. Мать главного героя старшная женщина с деньгами и властью. Переступает через всё и вся идя к своей цели. По законам жанра мы ее победим, но реальной жизни сколько таких не останавливаются.
Вторая половина дорамы совсем не веселая, скатились к драме-мелодраме, причем так основательно, стало взрослое кино. И тут мне понравился второй парень из F4. который уже вызывал у героини чувства, но был не то что отвергнут, а уступил своему другу, потому что понял, что там любовь сносит все преграды. Так вот, тут он борется за нее, в отличии от Гг, постоянно борется, хотя иногда понимает всю бесполезность (по законам жанра). Но, знаете, жизнь -не сериал, ведь по другому бывает. Стечение обстоятельств приводит к тому, что люди расходятся. И тут рядом такое постоянство и становится как то спокойно и за героиню и на душе.
Некоторые моменты было... эээ... диковато смотреть. Например, когда главная героиня приехала подружкой невесты своего любимого -мазохизм чистой воды - мне так хотелось употребить русский разговорный в этих сериях.
И вот последние серии и история с амнезией - ну полный бред и зачем. Причем, похоже это во всех версиях есть.

Um clássico que envelheceu mal
Um clássico das histórias, uma pobre e um rico se apaixonam e vivem sofrendo vários coisas para poderem ficar juntos.Confesso que nunca tive muita curiosidade sobre a história e até mesmo tinha ouvido sobre os acontecimentos absurdos do drama. Mas eu escolhi dar uma chance pra esse clássico, já que era muito falado. Então eu já tinha uma ideia formada sobre ela e queria tirar a prova disso, e foi bem pior do que eu pensei. A protagonista feminina só sabia gritar e minha cabeça doía tanto toda vez que ela aparecia. O protagonista masculino não parecia ter evoluído muita coisa até o último episódio e isso me deixou meio frustrada.
Não sei dizer, mas parecia que todos os atores não trabalhavam a muito tempo na indústria, o que pode ter dificultado no desenvolvimento dos personagens, apesar de achar que esse não era o problema.
As músicas, pelo menos, são ótimas, elas ficam na sua cabeça por anos. A harmonização das vozes dos catores do grupo Shinee era maravilhosa e era sempre uma grande admiração quando a música começa a tocar. Com certeza a música foi a melhor coisa que esse drama entregou.

It was the first k-drama I watched, and it is pretty much how my obsession with k-drama starts. It is also how I fell in love with Lee Min Ho. That being said, this drama is really not very good at all. After watching so many other fantastic dramas, I realize how bad this drama actually is.
The story is all over the place, the main romance plot line is honestly hard to stand. Honestly, the best thing about this show is Lee Min Ho's performance. Though his character made me mad quite often, Lee Min Ho is just super charming in every role he does, so charming that he often saves the bad roles from being too terrible to stand. Everyone else's acting was okay, not horrible. They just had to suffer through a story that was just intent on being annoying.
Music was not very memorable, I'm sure it was the candy pop stuff that is usually used in basic k-dramas. The stuff that drives me crazy when they play it every time something bad or romantic happens. This can be done well and it can be done horribly. For instance, the music in Goblin was so good that I was almost begging them to play in over and over again.
I rewatched this drama in the beginning before I had found many great dramas. I was quite obsessed with Lee Min Ho at the time, so I think I watched it again after watching City Hunter (I still love Lee Min Ho, but I have honestly found much better actors that I love a bit more.) That being said, I probably wouldn't rewatch this again. I've rewatched many dramas, but this one is just not worth it.

Solita storia ma comunque un bel drama.
Partendo che già avevo visto la versione cinese meteor garden mi aspettavo che alla fine mi avrebbe annoiato ma invece mi è piaciuto,anche più del previsto.La base della storia è sempre quella del ragazzo ricco bello e arrogante che si innamorerà della ragazza comune povera e sfortunata di turno che per un cavillo viene a studiare nella scuola da ricchi. C'è il gruppo dei F4 quatto fantastici ragazzi ricchi e belli che fanno girare il mondo scolastico e non solo.C'è pure il triangolo amoroso e sinceramente ho fatto il tifo per il second lead fino alla fine,qui a differenza di meteor garden la storia e più intensa che ti porta a sperare a un lieto fine anche per lui.
C'è la madre che è veramente una strega e poi un sacco di personaggi che fanno il tifo per i ragazzi.
Bella storia simpatica e molto piacevole da vedere.
Consiglio vivamente.

It's a 2009 drama, so this helps to give viewers an understanding of the flow of a drama and what to expect in a formula as well as familiarise yourself with one of the most common tropes (Rich guy / Poor girl), which in this setting was both enjoyable & frustrating.
I thoroughly enjoyed the dynamics of the characters interacting with the female lead and the sense that despite the clear romantic intention between Lee & Gu's respective characters - it played on the Reverse Harem concept (reference Japanese manga Ouran High School Host Club as a prime example of this).
I found this quite fun and enjoyable on screen, and really helped in some parts to drive the story.
When watching this drama, I became incredibly invested in the characters and it was a really enjoyable watch, but I couldn't attest to rewatch value.
The overarching story at times can be repetitive - which I can only attest to after having watching a few more dramas, but the way this is done, if you start with this drama, it will flow nicely and be less obvious in it's repetition.
The story follows a high-school setting, and flows well in regards to the character struggles, obstacles they have to overcome and when it reaches the conclusion it ties up really nicely.
These is probably one of the easiest dramas I've watched, and wasn't high angst and involved a lot of entertaining and sincere friendships on screen.
I certainly recommend this as a beginning drama and I am glad this is the one I started with to get me into the K-Drama world :)

Probably the first drama of many who venture into the world of K/Asian Dramas and undoubtedly one of the must watch ones too .Lee minho , my dear is a savage <3he will still steal your heart and make you wish for someone like Gu Jun pyo xD He is a big arrogant bully but the perfect lover one could've asked for , Jan-Di .. (Hye-Sun) might be the most Hate-loved heroine of all time ... she's a girl who'd not take any shit , not give any either but you'll just feel her ... one of the strongest second lead syndromes , honestly .. Ji Hoo (Hyun Joong) is one of the prettiest men you'd ever see ... his eyes and smile would literally melt you , If the main male lead wasn't Lee minho , you'd totally let him win , seriously ! Kim Bum and So-eun's Chemistry was really cool and both Woo bin and Yi Jung are your best wing men :D It's not the best drama but your drama life is just incomplete without BOF , It's Almost PARADISE !!!!

I don't remember when I started this drama. MyDramaList shows me starting it both 2 years ago And in 2014 (I definitely did not watch this in 2014), so my guess is either it really was 2 years ago in 2020, or it was sometime in 2021. Regardless, the point is that it took me quite a few months to finish, and I only finished it because I was dogged and determined to do so.This drama is pure soap opera, very indicative of the time it came out of. Absurd situations, obnoxious/terrible behavior, a plethora of villains, the quintessential jerk male lead and candy female lead, plenty of goofy background music (that gets stuck in your head until you begrudgingly come to love it), and overall, not very well-written or well-acted. It's also all of these qualities that gives BOF its charm, a charm that can only come from a drama of this era. That and it's so absurd that the joy of watching often comes from laughing at said absurdity.
Personally, I don't really watch dramas like this anymore. They've never truly been my cup of tea, even when I first got into dramas and most of what was out there was at least somewhat soapy. But back then in my early days of drama watching, I wanted to watch every drama ever made, and I was constantly seeking the next crack drama to grab my attention and not let go. BOF definitely would have fit that bill, and I'm surprised I never tried watching it before now.
I would say this drama is perfect for that particular period of a drama lover's journey when you're consuming drama's voraciously and always on the lookout for something to take you on a wild ride of emotions. You might re-watch BOF years later and think 'Why was I so enamored with this???', but you won't forget the experience of watching it.
I gave Boys Over Flowers a 6 overall purely because the absurdity and over-the-top drama gave me a lot of laughs, but based on actual quality, I would say it deserves a 4 or 5. The only reason I could think of someone wanting to watch this, outside of being in that particular period of the drama journey I mentioned earlier, would be because the drama is so absurd it's hilarious to watch. So definitely watch this if you enjoy wild, over-the-top, true soap opera style drama that makes your sides split from laughter. Or watch if you're in that phase where you want to consume everything, and you're looking for a drama that will grab you and not let go. BOF definitely that kind of drama. Otherwise, I wouldn't really bother.

My thoughts on this drama.
I keep on seeing bad reviews of this show and in my option its a great k drama. It defiantly one that you have to see. Not to mention that this show was from 2009 so the acting and the story were pretty good for its time. Yes there were defiantly Tim e that I got annoyed with the main character of the drama because she would do things that didn't make sense, but for an old k drama its understandable. Plus its like an OG krarama and even though I watched it so long ago its still amazing for its time. When I give a 10/10 its not me comparing it newer ones. (like "it's okay not to be okay") Because I both give them 10's for different reasons. But I still recommend watching it because its such an OG.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
ANNOYINGLY FUN
Among the kdrama osts, I must say that this could be the best. Honestly, one of the impact it brought to me was the soundtrack, this series stands up when it comes to ost, it hits different.I hate the fact that this drama annoyed me that much, I hate how the male lead bullies the female lead and then turned out to be the "lovers" as what clichè storylines are.
I mean Jun Pyo physically bullied and harassed Jan Di at all times and that was toxic, it ain't cute! It doesn't look like romantic. The main characters' relationship was toxic! the only couple I'd looked up to this drama was the second lead couple.
The second male lead was irksome though. He was actually the root why did the female lead was getting harassed.
Anyways, don't get me wrong, I was inlove with that series since I was a kid. I didn't even realized that my younger me carried to watch this.
As I'd rewatched it, now that I'm in a teenage years, I finally found that most of the kids found the first episodes "cute" because my 9-year-old-me before felt the same way. To be honest, it was a total wack.
Anyways, no matter how it annoyed me, this will gonna be remain "iconic" and "nostalgic" to me. This kdrama had a special place in my heart.
All of the casts were excelled in that drama and that's a point for me to give it a deserving rate.
The plot is clichè, seriously it wasn't that amazing.
The production are costly! The locations and places were eye catching.
