from Daum

-- I kinda hoped that the story would be in college and not in High School.. just like Meteor Garden.. I wonder if this is the final cast or if its just a rumor...I'm not sure how i like the f4 and Tsukusi...

These are my fave picks to get casted:
PARK MIN YOUNG as Makino: She's absolutely perfect for the role imho. She has just enough cuteness and spunk for the role of Makino Smile

She played the high school role inI Am Sam really well. The only bad thing that I can think of her getting casted is that it's not really providing her with a versatile role to display her acting skills since it would be very similar to her previous roles in I Am Sam and High Kick.

LEE MIN KI as Domyoji: He's a great actor and was great in Dalja's Spring and I Really Really Like You. Plus, he even looks like Domyoji =) and he's a relatively new face to international K-Drama fans, so this role would provide him with his platform for international stardom! haha

JANG GEUN SUK as Rui. He's a good actor and has that sweetness to him that Rui's role needs. Plus he's a pretty boy and Rui's role should be prettier than the male leads Smile

I truly respect Yoon Eun Hye for taking roles different from the super cute/gurly, pretty looking, " Oppaaa"/"Ajushiiiiii" screaming stereotype (with or without terminal disease) salut

.But I don't want her in this.I want someone new and different.However, I doubt my wish will be granted because she is obviously very popular and everybody wants her.Viewers and sponsors above all.
I don't really care about the boys as long as they cast believable Tsukasa and Rui, who have good chemistry with the female lead.This is my favorite manga/drama love triangle and I dont want bad casting to ruin it for me. Mad

Anyway, whoever they cast eye candy is guaranteed. cheers

.Which is wonderful because if this show drags over 20 episodes (and I know it will) at least I'll watch pretty boys when it gets boring Big Smile

I personally think that Lee Jun Ki would make a perfect Rui. Though he is a bit too old still he had a high school riole in a movie Virgin Snow... He is just pertty enough to be Rui though I prefet Rui with light hair color, maybe not blonde but orange or something and I think Jun Ki wouldn't look that good with orange hair. xD

In my opinion most of the actresses/actors mentioned on the list are a bit too old. For example Kang Dong Won on second place for Tsukasa's role... come on! I love HYD manga and I think that the plot is just dramatic enough for a Korean darma^^ I also hope they would change the ending a bit to something not so open.

Here's my dream cast for Meteor Garden (k-version)

Dao Ming Sz - Hyun Bin
Hua Tse Lei - Seo Do Young (he did so well in Spring Waltz) or Lee Dong Wook
Xi Men - Shin Dong Wook
Mei Zuo - Lee Minki or Lee Junki (he kindda looks like vaness)

as for Shan Cai's role - Yoon Eun Hye is an option though it would also be nice to see a fresh new face for this role Smile

Whatever the case, I hope they won't put young boys in the cast. I would really appreciate if they casted actors in the same age range as above (like what they did in Meteor Garden).

Of course she too old for the part, But I think this would make a fun comeback to korea drama for jang nara.
she plays one cute and sassy schoolgirl!

I'm such a big HANADAN fan and this news surprised me a lot. I saw Meteor garden and Hana Yori Dango, their complete seasons. Hana Yori Dango just tops my list as my most fave drama along with my girl. so i hope this drama would also be a good one and i hope it wouldn't be that long. Also, they can add some twists in the story to make it really good or something..

Anyway, does anyone know when it will be out?[/b]

@mittens-- they schedule to air this drama around middle of 2008--

Some people mentioned that these actor/actress' are too old--I disagree, LMK can totally pull of the high school look (if thats what the producers are going for).. BUT-- I really hope that instead of a High school theme they would move it up to College and than all the actors mentioned here would fit the part A OK>.... So we'll have to be patient and see how it turned out...

IM JU HWAN! Definitely my choice for Rui. Him and no other xD

Tsukasa, I don't care as much, although I'd love if they casted Lee Min Ki. He can definitely pull it off!
>__>;; How old is Hyun Bin again?

I honestly don't see what's the fuss about Yoon Eun Hye
She's obviously a very talented actress...
Does everyone just not like her cuz she's popular? I don't get it >_<;;

And please don't make this into a boy band drama T_T
Meaning, no DBSK/Suju/Big Bang/FT Island or anything else xD
