The Korean adaptation of popular Japanese manga Hana Yori Dango, Boys Before Flowers which will be shown in December recently revealed the image concept for their Korean F4 and female protagonist, Yeon Woo.
Filming for Boys Before Flowers started on 5th November with their first scene filmed at Incheon International Airport. Goo Hye Sun, Kim Hyun Joong, Han Chae Young plus others all took part in the first filming. The scene for that day saw Kim Hyun Joong and the rest at the airport, sending Han Chae Young off, with Hyun Joong and Han Chae Young locked in a heartwarming embrace.
With this being his first acting role, Hyun Joong expressed after filming, “I have to act out a totally different person from myself when filming this drama. So I was pretty nervous as it was my first time. But Han Chae Young sunbae took really good care of me and we successfully completed the shoot.” Hyun Joong also revealed that his character in Boys Before Flowers will have a meatier role as compared to the original adapation. Thus, he will strive and work harder in order to not disappoint the legion of Boys Before Flowers fanatics.
Feeling excited?
Good luck Hyun Joong~
Cannot bring your 4D persona this time XDD
dude hyunjoong is the only looking guy !
“Daoming Si” (I can’t spell his name in Japanese version) looks like Shiwon.
The one Korean “Rui” looks just like the Japanese one.
Kimbum looks good lol.
Goo Hye Soo looks like Han Chae Young’s character in Choon Hyang.
damn hyunjoong looks freakin fiiiiiiinnnneeeeee!! XD
I”M SO EXCITED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wanna see Han Chae Young being Shizuka and embracing HyunJoong with hug!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Can’t express my excitement,,
dang,, HYD was my number one drama and Han Chae Young was my favorite actress esp. after her drama in Sassy Girl Chun Hyang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
can’t wait!! can’t wait!!
coolsmurf!! please continue update with pictures!!!
yeahhh go kim bum!
this WILL be the drama that will bring back my love for KDRAMAs. after coffee prince, i just couldnt get into other dramas. no other drama had the sparkk.. now this one! thank you!
yay! i will be watching this for sure.
i just hope it wont disappoint!
Wow… they look quite similar to their Japanese counterparts… well, with the exception of Hye Sun. She has that unique look.
OMG!!! They’re so handsome!
kim bum looks soooo hot!!
and hyunjoong!! yay more scenes!!!
the more i look at it, the more that guy does look like daomingsi.
OMFG they look soooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ahhhhh! i cant wait for the drama to come out!!!!! i hope its good.
:O OMG….only hyunjoong looks good in the korean version…..hmm…i still prefer the Taiwanese F4! (At least all of them looks pleasing to the eye) As for the drama and plotline….will have to wait and see if it surpasses the Japanese and Taiwanese version…..
I AM SO EXCITED!!
Loved the Japanese version so I’m totally looking forward to this!!
What did they do to Lee Minho’s hair? It doesn’t really suit him.
I’m so hyped up for this drama… I love the Japanese version of it. Simply amazing <3
Goo Hye Sun is really too old for plays a high school girl, it’s the only thing who bother me. Dude she is 24 years old!
Love INOUE MAO and Matsu-JUN!!!
SS501 guy is ok
totally excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
kim hyunjoong is gonna be great as rui/hua ze lei! as for the other casts which i have saw on soompi, i think they chose the right people, especially the three bratty schoolgirls. and looking forward to their wardrobes too. =] the school’s uniform is cute.
I am very much looking forward to this series. Thanks for the article!
VERY!!!!!!!!!
HYUN JOONG LOOKS SO DELICIOUS!
@rae..His hair is like that because F4’s leader Domyoji is supposed to be curly haired, Rui is light/fair haired, Sojiro’s hair is parted in the center and Akira is long haired if they were to follow the hairstyle of the characters in the manga like they did in the Japanese version. Jerry Yan’s Daoming Si had his hair straightened in Meteor Garden’s adaptation of HYD. As you can see, Kim Bum and Kim Joon didn’t have their character’s hair so this is another deviation from the original aside from the storyline itself. Pretty interesting though.
im so excited now!!! WAAHH!!! LOL thanks for the update alvin!!
Bleh.
I’ll never get “idol’s drama”.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE <3 HANA YORI DANGO!
AND <3 HYUNJOONG!!!
SO THEREFORE WILL LOVE THIS!
teehee <3
Looking Good !! Looking Good !!! I’m very excited with this !!
i cant wait to watch it!!!!
I’m super curious to see what this version will be like after seeing both the Japanese and Taiwanese versions! I’m so excited!
oh man im so excited for this i think… i just wish i can fastfoward time to see this lol
Wow, the cast looks good!! Hyun Joong looks just like Rui, and wow, the main male lead looks hot!! He looks like Siwon from Super Junior in that picture!! I don’t think the other two F4 members look badass enough, but we’ll see. Goo Hye Sun, I’m still not sure about her, she looks a little old in that picture.
I’m really excited to see this!! =D
omg can’t wait to see it!!i’m so excited!!!i like goo hye sun and the others guys are awesome!!!
GOODNESS!! It’s total hotness overload…<333
I like all of them. Hyun Joong and Kim Bum especially..XP
*fans away fangirliness*
HJL and KIMBUM!
sigh go hye sun doesnt look suitable even in the first pic
i hope she chg my mind
OHMYGOD!!!!
now i’m SUUPPER EXCITED!
hotness galore!
HYUN JOONG~~~ *DIES* he’s so perfect for the role of rui hanazawa. hope his acting is good. <3
btw, Lee Minho looks a lot like Jerry Yan(Dao Ming Zi from taiwan F4) with that curly hair.
KIM KIMBUM and that other guys looks great!
oh fark, i can’t waaaiiittt even this is the 3rd Meteor Garden/Hana Yori Dango show i’m gonna watch. LOL
Korean F4 vs Taiwan F4 ^^ I love Korean F4
I’m excited but I don’t really like the female lead. I just hope she does better…
no offense buh da guy who is playing as Tsukasa his hair is ugly >__< no offence it’s even worse than the Japanese one
omg. I sooooooo cannnot wait for this to be out!!!
not really. hates the curly hair.omigosh.haha. im shocked they actually curled his hair.

omo i am so excited
[...] Source: coolsmurf [...]
haha. they casted han chae yong as rui’s love interest?? waaaaaaa…..
cant wait for HYD
ooohhh…i agree with some of the comments above. the korean domyouji looks like an uglier version of choi siwon and hyunjoong resembles oguri shun in some ways. i’m excited for this.
soooo excited to watch this!!!.looking forward on how the korean version will come out.. =D
I know domyouji is SUPPOSE to have curly hair but it doesn’t really work on that guy……
But Hyun Joong looks damn fineeeeee so Im super excited!
I think many would be watching ’cause of Hyun Joong. Hope he doesn’t disappoint. Can’t wait. Fighting!!!
Hyun Joong IS the best lookin.
AND I DO NOT LIKE WHAT GO HYE SEUNG IS WEARING.
Aint she suppose to be in uniform? =.=”
Or the last pic isnt really Go Hye sung?
well whoever that is…..im just…..BLEHHH
taiwan version for the win still! the leader is way better looking than this one. everyone is only watching the korean version basically for hyun joong.
hye sun looks too old to be the lead girl…but omg…hyun joong looks gorgeous
This going to be GOOD!!!! i going to watch this
i’m watching EAST OF EDEN and QUE SERA SERA at the moment…. and really looking forward to this once since it’d be a nice change of tone.
i love love love HS stories, even if this one takes place in college….. same difference
thanks!
btw….. i think she’s really old for the F4 guys …… but that only means one thing….. THERE’S HOPE FOR US GIRLS BORN IN ‘84!…… if only my bf looked like kim beom…..
Pao
Its nice to see pictures! =) I’m really excited because I’ve seen all the different versions of this drama. I just got to say, I have high expectations for this drama. =D
Thanks Coolsmurf! =D
OMG, hotness overload. I seriously think HJ looks the most like RUI in the manga!
The main guy doesn’t look too amazing, but i think i will grow to love him since i wasn’t to fond on matsumo jun’s looks at first but eventually got use to him (coz of his amazing acting) also the domiyoji in the manga isn’t really that attractive (its the personality which makes you love him).
BTW whos the guy with the reddish hair because he is looking super cute O.O.
I seriously can’t wait for this.
hmmm.. looks like they choose the wrong actress.
I mean they shld have find a better, pretty, sweet looking actress. No offends =)
i’m excited to see the 1st ep since i’m not familiar with the original. the guys all look so young & kinda feminine.
I’m not really excited.
I keep remembering Hana Yori Dango with MatsuJun && Inoue Mao. Hopefully they can pull it off.
♥
Shillang looks mighty fine ^_^!!! It’s good that he’s gonna have more of a complex role than the original. I wonder how his chemistry with Han Chae Young going to be?! I am super excited!!!
I can’t wait for this drama to come out!!
Doesn’t anyone else agree that HJ is not that good looking?
Whether you have different standards or types,He is average if not bad looking if anything…
I don’t hate him,it’s just the truth even out of ss501 he is not the best looking out of them.
Anyways,I can’t wait to watch this drama,I already watched the Japanese version,which either way,I will think of it as the best,even if it wasn’t the first one to air,the only particular reason I’m watching this is because of Kim Bum.
kibum and hyun joong is hella good looking
the other boys look decent too but i wouldn’t say a total heartbreaker but nonetheless i am still super super excited for this efinn’ drama…
Ahmmm!!! hyung joong’ll work hard in oder to disappoint fans ….Hj’s a high responsibility for his work
my pretty boy fightingggggg!!!!!!! I’m so excited to wait for HYD…^^
I still believe hy’s appearance….absolutly fits for Rui :p
Coolsmurf thx for up dated!!!!
KIM BUM <3
ooohh goshh..
i cant wait it..
so many pretty and cute boys in here..
lol
I’m an HYD lover since forever, if there’s one thing that made me love HYD even more was when the Japanese at last made their own version and actually finished it with a bang! The Taiwanese was okay too, but I’m actually looking forward for the Korean version. I’m not too familiar with the cast with the exemption of Kim Hyun Joong, but that’s what makes HYD even more exciting, with almost new actors being cast. Good luck!
hyun joong as rui. ah, i’m so happy <3 chestnut brown hair with blonde and cider red highlites. *melts*
AAAAAA!!! It’s almost here! I can’t wait for it =D! Thank you for posting this! ^^
omg…thanks for the update…
hehehe they all looked handsome ^^
Although i know it will be very popular, and at first i’m quite excited too,but to me,there is a few problems which made me not excited about it anymore.
1.The hair style for Lee Min Ho is too ugly.The other 3 are a lot better.
2.Goo Hye Sun acting PURE again?The character in ‘Pure 19′ is so stupid.Everytime i saw the character,i will scold her like crazy.(Altough i know is not her fault, is the screenwriter’s and director’s fault for making the character so stupid(very act).But i just can’t forget that stupid character she has acted.)
yes definitely excited!! each of their roles are being portrayed so clearly! goo hye soon!!! cute~!
wooooww
