Boys Over Flowers -The drama did not have a single dull moment. That being said, you will most likely be hooked from the first episode.You were either laughing at all the crazy antics of the characters, or having anxiety attacks over the plot twists and unexpected turn the show had taken in the second season.
You see, there is a reason this drama is the biggest hit. It is that drama with a lot of generic content, but is still so good, you just can’t help keeping it as your guilty pleasur. There is just something indescribable about this drama that draws you in. So what actually is addicting about Boys Over Flowers? Maybe it’s Jun Pyo’sboldness and handsome facethat puts SHINee’s wildJonghyunto shame.
Despite the unrealistic turn of events, the story was actually about the strong bond between true friends, the dilemma about choosing love over family, and conquering the stereotypes revolving around one’s socio-economic background. Jan Di was poor, but she was also happy and it was not until she got involved with Jun Pyo’s luxurious affairs that she started to feel pain. Boys Over Flowers teaches you an important lesson, that you cannot buy the trait that defines you;
And if that’s not a good enough reason to watch this smashing drama, the OST is enough to make you fall in love with it. T-Max’s “Paradise” will be stuck in your head and SHINee’s “Stand By Me” will be your daily anthem.
To be honest, there is not really much to write about in this review. You will always remember all the drama, the cheesiness, the pretty faces, the heartbreaks, and all the times we cried our lungs out, and of course- Jun Pyo and Jan Di’s romance.
