OK, I have yet to see the versions other than the Korean one, and I wasn't overly impressed with it, either, BUT...…
If you are comparing different remakes you have to point the one thing that was missing compared to other versions. Therefore, the freindship in TTBY was absent and that's based on what we saw from all remakes but if we were to count TTBY alone then we would say some friendship moments existed.
I hope you understand what I mean and I recommend to watch the 2007 version to find out the true meaning of friendship in Hana Kimi.
I remember loving TTBY in the first few eps too. But I hate the fact that Sano is a something like a celebrity…
I was annoyed by the celebrity part too, it was really bad and made things even more serious and complicated when they were supposed to be simple and funny.
@MizushimaScary: If you really enjoyed the 2007 the best then I doubt if you will enjoy the Korean version.
Nice article :D My favorite version is Hana Kimi 2007. Like you said To The Beautiful You was a total DISAPPOINTMENT!!!…
I thought I was going to die by waiting for the Korean version to come out but after watching the first episodes, I was like: Are you kidding me? Where's Hana Kimi's core in this drama?!
I am watching Vampire Host, yaay I found a vampire drama after looking so hard. Why are they so rare to find?!
So what have you been watching lately?
I hope you understand what I mean and I recommend to watch the 2007 version to find out the true meaning of friendship in Hana Kimi.

And yes, the remake deserve to be watched.
