According to the latest news, Korea's version of "Boys Before Flowers (i.e. Hana Yori Dango)" will broadcast on KBS 2TV in December. Renowned director Jeon Gi-Sang, whose works include "Bodyguard", "Sassy Girl Chunhyang" and "My Girl" will be involved with the drama along with writer Yoon Ji-Ryeon, who was the writer for teen drama "Sharp #3". What everyone is dying to know is the casting - and it seems that KBS is gearing up for an all-star cast of members from famous boy bands. At this point, the biggest front runner for the lead is SS501's Kim Hyun-Joong, although sources have yet to confirm this. Another likely candidate is Super Junior's Kim Ki Bum (Personally I'm crossing my fingers for this!), especially since he starred in previous Sharp dramas. A few people have mentioned T.O.P. from Big Bang and Jae Joong from DBSK (I think he could play the female lead, too...), but with fan groups spamming message boards declaring that 'their' idol will be cast, it's hard to know which sources are reliable and which are products of crazy stalkers' devoted fans' hopeful imaginations. One thing for sure is that Korea's casting of "Boys Before Flowers" will be explosive, since the Hallyu wave has made boy bands in particular extremely popular with girls all over Asia. In fact, people in China, Japan, and other parts of East Asia are also eagerly anticipating the casting of the Korean version. After all, Korea is known for its beautiful boys. The collaboration of members from 'rival' boy bands is definitely worth watching, and this drama will no doubt propel them to even bigger stardom. Group 8, who produced the failed drama, "Goong S", will unfortunately produce this mini-drama. It is scheduled to air Monday-Tuesday starting on the last week of December. Hopefully, they don't botch this up, since expectations are sky-high. A representative said that "Korea's version of Boys Before Flowers will definitely satisfy everyone and we will produce a version that will become Korea's representative drama." Honestly, I think it's time that us girls are given a chance to drool over hot guys - after all, with all the slutty female singers in the K-pop industry, the boys have been given many, many chances to be happy. If pretty boys are your type, then gear up for this upcoming drama! Heck, even I'm excited.
