Hana Yori Dango

The resilience to not be defeated by adversity is more precious than anything. I sincerely respect the sight of someone standing on their own two feet, regardless of their environment or status. Even though it's a drama, I want to emulate that kind of strength.

The cast of Boys Over Flowers was also amazing, wasn't it~ Actually, because the group bullying scenes in the first half of Season 1 went on for so long, my mom only let me watch properly starting from Season 2 😅 Since the drama was so good, Domyouji didn't face any consequences in the early part, but compared to Rui, I was like, 'Hmm...' haha Was it originally planned for Tsukushi and Rui to be the main focus? They ended up chasing Shizuka and lingered in a state of indecisiveness, fading out for a long time. As a result, while Rui was away, Domyouji became closer to Tsukushi, which apparently resonated with female readers during the serialization ('ﾟдﾟ｀) Either way, Tsukushi is strong and cute, so I love her 👍💕

I watched the Korean drama first, then watched the entire Japanese version on a rerun 👀 Both had a cool Hanazawa Rui... Bullying is so severe, would it get flagged for compliance now?? I was also hooked on reading the manga~

The original manga was really old, wasn't it? 😳 I think there was also a movie where Yuki Uchida played Tsukushi… I might have seen it 👀💭 But I also think MJ's Domyouji is the best ✨✨✨

I absolutely loved Hana Yori Dango!!! I read the entire original manga too, but the drama adaptation was so well-made, I looked forward to watching it every week! The theme song was amazing too~

I read the manga. I thought it was a story that could only be told in the world of manga, so I didn't really watch the live-action...💦 Back then, I thought Anne Suzuki would have been a better fit for the role of Tsukushi Makino, embodying that 'fighting spirit' vibe 😊
