Interesting beginning, horrible evolution

As I found this drama on quite a lot of "must watch K-Dramas" - lists and it being extremely popular, I went in to except a, maybe a bit cliché-heavy but light and enjoyable watch. And while it is in the beginning very interesting and simply cool to see a "simple" girl stand up to the school bullies, this takes the absolutely wrong turn when the main male lead is the leader of the group of bullies, who literally had a guy almost committing suicide due to them, if Gandi didn't stand up for him. ML's ways of making Gandi fall in love of him are extremely worrying as well and then, instead of first explaining why he acts that way or at least letting Gandi deal with it, the show suddenly portrays him as hero and romantic, only meaning well.

Furthermore, it gets quite boring and dragged out, and horrible story + bad pacing + annoying music just doesn't make for an enjoyable watch.

Cringy AF. Don’t waste your time. ??‍

After everyone’s recommendations saying that this drama is one of the best drama... I was pleasantly surprised with how much shyt they were chatting.

No offense but

This drama is so cringy for my liking. I usually can put up with cringe dramas but the storyline is cliche and so damn boring. And The characters are annoying.

I honestly tried my best to stick through with this drama to the end but I ended up getting more and more dissatisfied. Personally I love watching dramas that are not predictable and this drama was the total opposite.

1/10 the 1 for the actors/actresses hard work.

It's not a good drama, it's overrated (believe me), it doesn't have bad acting but no the best, storyline is bad, it could have been better. I love the cast (actors) ... it could have been better. The first episodes are good, but then it gets SO BORING that you just want to stop watching. This is not a really bad drama but it's not the best as most people say.

This had been one of the first K dramas that I started watching. I've seen the Japanese and the Chinese version of the same story and had loved both, so I was familiar with the natural storyline. But I was hoping that they would have added their own little twist to the story. It was a little disappointing to see that they hadn't really made the effort. Which moved them from being fabulous to just being Meh in my books.
The actors and actresses were great and I felt that they made a great decision on the casting but I felt that the story was just missing something throughout the series. I would watch it again but mostly to fill time though.

So good!!! I understand what all the hype is about. It made me laugh, cry, happy, sad, joyful, melancholy. Overall the story is so good. I can't give it a 10 just due to the fact that it felt like some of the scenes were out of order, or some plot lines kind of seemed unfinished. I would definitely recommend for a starter drama.

Shall I finish watching it or shall I not?

This is my very first negative review. I’m struggling and forcing myself to like this drama and I’m debating whether to continue watching this series or not. The female lead is the most freaking annoying character ever. Her facial expressions are like wtf am I seeing here? Who eats like that, it’s offensive to poor people. When she smiles she looks sweet but overall especially with that hairstyle I can’t see why anyone will fall for her. I’m sorry but I don’t find her personality endearing at all. I don’t even know who the real bully is here. I’ve watched Meteor Garden and apart from the weird ending and the horrible rich mother I loved how the story is not just about the main leads and we get to see the life of the other members of F4. Also I love the fact that the F4 sing the OST.

Boys Before Flowers was my first Korean drama. I'd been watching Japanese drama until then and when I found this drama I became fan of Korean dramas too. Although Lee Min Ho is the main actor of the story I fell in love at first sight with Kim Hyun Joon. I normally don't put much attention to female roles, but actress Ku Hye Sun made a wonderful interpretation here. She is so funny and sweet. I also watched the Japanese version but I prefer this one. I bought the original DVD and has a special place in my collection.

It was a bit dull and I also feel like instead of having it like an actual kdrama, they tried to make like a japanese one, but it wasn't happening. It was a bit dull to be honest. I recommend the japanese one.

This is a beloved kdrama - truly. I did enjoy it and I would recommend it to all my kdrama-loving followers. HOWEVER, I was conflicted about the drama because of...the ending. I don't like spoilers, so I won't say anything specific about the ending. What I will say is that I feel that they could have had less episodes for this story (25 eps!). I think that at some points, the duration really hurt the drama because it gave the writers too much space to go in circles in the story. With that said, I don't regret watching this drama, it just isn't one of my favorites.

Plus - Lee Min Ho and Kim Hyun Joong. Enough said.
