I have read the manga, watched Boys over flowers first then Hana yori dango and didn't bother watching any others since I detested the Japanese version as much as I hated everything in Boys over flowers except Kim Hyun Joong's character. I thought the actress playing Jandi was way over the top and beyond annoying I wanted to punch my tv. Minho's character was so abusive to her and yet she still decided to stay with him. In my head any woman/man that decides to stay with an abusive person/relationship is beyond repair. Will not recommend this show to anyone
