I'm reading the manga, and Hanazawa Rui already made an appearence there. :) He was speaking with the main character Haruto. Maybe the others would show up too... I don't know what are the chances of their cameo in the drama, but I'm hopeful. I mean these surprise cameos can happen, last time when I watched 'Kaito Yamaneko', which stars Kamenashi Kazuya, there was a scene with Horikita Maki, and they mentioned famous lines from 'Nobuta. Wo Produce' - and Yamaneko wasn't even a sequel to Nobuta! So let's hope they will make some HanaDan cameos in HanaHare! :D
Please God letmher end up with the Yoo Ji Hoon character this time! I cannot stand Goo Joon Pyo again.........the…
I think these kind of things depend on the mangaka, since the dramas are following the original story. So complaints should be addressed to the mangaka. :D
Primadonnas, at least the first episode is a must seen to you all! ;D Come to think of it, most pri's gonna watch the whole thing because of Hongki, of course. Still, when I saw them all onstage at the half of the episode... well, let's just say my fangirl mode turned on. :D
Anyway, I like this drama so far, it's really promising! :)

(after ep.04) I don't like Human Guy, he sucks (:DDD but really) So far, Vampire Guy is a so much better and more interesting character. (Btw I liked Yeo Jin Goo in other dramas, he's not my problem. His character is.)
I wonder why doesn't he have main roles in popular dramas? I mean, he most definitely has the looks :D, his acting seems pretty good too, so I don't really understand why he is wasted for less popular dailies and relatively minor roles in the shorter but good dramas (such as Remember - War of the Son or Queen In Hyun's Man). I think he would do well as main lead! I'd love to see him more in major roles, but don't have the time & patience to watch long daily dramas... So please, Dear Korean Dramamakers, give him more real chance! :D
Well I, for one, liked it very much. I see all the flaws, but I just don't care - I wanted a fun watch to distract my thoughts from everyday shit, and I got it. It's not the Best Drama Ever, but still I'm grateful I hadn't listen those negative reviews and decided to check it for myself - and heck I'll do the same with every other dramas too which I find interesting despite the negative reviews. We're not the same, so I encourage every hesitating person to take a look yourself! Maybe you'll like it, too. :)
Reply 1988 was very good ending. It was wrapped so well and answered everything...at least for me. So i'm…
I agree with Dana1004, it was a perfect ending for me too :)
But it's true that there were viewers who got what they wanted, and other viewers who didn't. Obviously, people in the first group are happy with that ending, and people in the second group, well, not so much :D
I think this is a bit underrated. It's a sweet story & a fun watch. And Tang Danson is not bad as an actor, IMHO. (And he's definitely not bad to look at :D)
My first taiwanese drama, btw. :)
Excellent ending - at least if I try hard and understand East-Asian thinking :D Sometimes I manage to do so, and just ... it's just... like I can feel into that way of thinking (I don't really know how to express myself in English :'D). Now with this drama, that's the case. I think. I'm simply amazed.
The ending wasn't really a surprise for me, and I was happy with it, since I shipped her with Taek <3 That being said, I do feel sorry for everybody who believed she would end up with Jung Hwan. It must be hard for them. But Taek is Taek (and Bo Gum :D), so I'm still happy :DD
3/10
Finally it's over for me too... I was struggling with this one for a long time... and finished it only because of JCW. Otherwise, really not my cup of tea. :/
Haha, I sympathized with the female lead since the beginning, when it turned out she has IBS - I'm struggling with the same disorder, and it was somewhat comforting to know that even k-drama heroines can have these kind of difficulties :'D
Come to think of it, most pri's gonna watch the whole thing because of Hongki, of course. Still, when I saw them all onstage at the half of the episode... well, let's just say my fangirl mode turned on. :D
Anyway, I like this drama so far, it's really promising! :)
