"We have hated,loved and hurt each other.After all that regardless of the outcome and the challenges,in every minute of my life,i love him with all my heart." -Shancai

What a blasting news it was when "Meteor Garden" got released in 2018 and it took me 2 years to find the right time to finally sit down and watch in on Netflix.I have been so much busy with studying and catching up with my life that i haven`t simply had the time.But watching this new version of "Boys over Flowers" and re-capturing all the moments of struggle,heartbreak,unrequited love,love-triangles and friendship and love between the main-heroine and the legendary F4 members was fun and entertaining and romantic!I never get tired of this story,as i have watched (and loved) the earlier korean,japanese and taiwanese adaptions of "Boys over Flowers".

This is a hate-to-love romance about the star-crossed lovers Daoming Si and Dong Shancai.The romance is high,and so is the drama.If you want high-school drama,love-triangles,irresistible male-leads,kidnapping,bullying,threats of Joker cards,main-leads stranded on a Island,attempted murderer,blackmail, competitions and a male-lead who swears that he will follow his heroine to the end of Mars if he have to...this 2018 version of "Meteor Garden" has it all..so look no further!

I was at first worried if Dylan Wang could pull off the beloved character of the bad boy heir Daoming Si like Jerry Yan,Jun Matsumoto and Lee Min-ho did in their adaptions of the character.But wow how he astounded me with his devilish smile and charm.Dylan did great in expressing his undying love for the first girl who have ever stood up against 4F,his beloved Shancai played by Shen Yue.Shen Yue is a incredible actress who pulled off the character of Shancai with honorable dignity and spirit.The chemistry between the co-stars are super,which really made me stuck with this story from the first episode.Dylan and Shen on-screen are fireworks and i never tired of watching them together!

"If apologies worked,why would we need the police" -Daoming Si (a famous quote this character uses in every version of BOF)

Daoming Si is rich,arrogant and impulsive and the leader of 4F.He is one of the most beloved Anti-heroes in Asianovela with his passionate outbursts in pain and love,his loyalty and devotion to the people he love.He is a guy who destroys everything against him,as he tries to do with Shancai before realizing that he loves this spirited girl early on in the story.His temper and cruel antics is what really hurts Shancai from the start,especially when he out of raging jealousy forcefully kissess her.Her tears makes him realize that he can`t go on that way anymore.In bullying and hurting her...he only made her hate stronger.Her love for his best-friend,the calmest of the F4 Huaze Lei (played by Darren Chen) is heartbreaking for Daoming Si to bear,but he insists on wooing Shancai and tries to win her heart in the only way he can.Its a beautiful journey where we watch Daoming Si redeem himself,with the guidance of his F4 friends and mostly his love for Shancai.He is defenitely my favourite character in this series!(AND in all the other versions of BOF)

"Because you`re the only one I`m willing to trade all the meteors in the sky for" -Daoming Si

Shancai is the perfect match for the mighty Daoming Si,but doesn`t know it until later on.With heR strong will and strength,she fights on toe to toe against Daoming Si and never surrenders.What she doesn`t know is that he will be the one to surrender due to his irrevocable love for her.Her youthful crush for Lei is painful to watch (in every versions) but the actress had good chemistry with Darren Chen and there are many cute scenes with them.And how glad i was when Daoming Si finally succeeded in catching Shancais heart!Shancai and Daoming Si are incredible characters that complements and are perfection together.They speak the same language,touch the same way,walks the same and breathes the same.They are in one bubble no one can destroy,and they are soulmates that are fated to be mated.So many challenges and heartbreak these two had to over-come...but Oh how bittersweet it was!I loved it!What a beautiful couple with a beautiful love-story!!!

I love the 4F gangs in all adoptions of "BOF",and the characters of Daoming Si,Huaze Lei, Yan Ximen and Feng Mei Zuo are all talented,handsome,seductive,irresistible young males that made my heart beat faster!I love Daoming Si`s childish nature..where he is the dark bad boy everyone fears but has a golden heart hidden deep down.Huaze Lei with his musical nature and looks of innocence,he smiled like an angel and i was done for!Yan Ximen with his casanova ways of charm and seduction swooned me with his uprightness and loyalty.Mei Zuo are kind of cheeky and fun with his ironic remarks and usually only dates older women.All these four men are absolutely amazing creatures and i envy Shancai for befriending them and stealing the leaders heart.

"Dong Shancai.I like you...i don`t know why.Even i am surprised by how much i like you.No matter where i go,you`re the only person i see...Shancai,i know that i am annoying.If you want to run away then i will chase after you.If you run to Mars,i will still chase you to Mars." -Daoming Si
