personally I vote for Korean F4, story seems a tad better and the actors looks somewhat hotter.

Especially Kim Bum

Starter of Controversy.

I really like the korean version as well, love the actors!

Agreed! I really enjoyed Boys Over Flowers (Korean version of Hana Yori Dango) 😀

(Even though the quote above is from Hamlet, I first saw it in a Final Fantasy Versus XIII trailer on YouTube ^o^)

I've only read the manga & seen the Japanese & Korean dramas, but I thought the Japanese version was MUCH better than the Korean. 😃

this is not about cannibalism...please get back on topic

Quote from Toto

I think it is exactly the topic. I see nothing wrong.

The Japanese version was the best imo. ^^
The Korean was okay, but it lacked the charm that HYD had.

I've only seen the Japanese dorama of Hana Yori Dango, but looking at these pics of comparison... I don't think they're the hottest. x.x

ditto. Japanese version all the way. Loved Matsujun as Domyouji...so adorable! I prefer the jdrama over the original source, actually. 😀

WOW. I had no idea HYD had so many different international versions of it produced. I won't vote because I haven't watched any of them, but from a casting and costuming standpoint, I'd have to go with the Korean because those guys look like the elites they're supposed to be. The rest just look like generic boy band members; I don't get an elite vibe from them at all.

I've only seen the korean and japanese version. The korean F4 are no doubt very good looking, but the japanese version had far superior acting. (To be honest, I never really fell in love with Boys Over Flowers anyway, especially Jan Di who was way over the top. I much prefer the japanese Hanadan where there was more chemistry between the cast members. I also adore Oguri Shun.)
