Meteor Garden 2018 Wraps Filming and Releases Awesome First Look at the Drama

I’m so in! The first teaser is out for Meteor Garden 2018, the TW/C-drama latest adaptation of the perennially popular shoujo manga Hana Yori Dango (Boys Before Flowers), and it looks like the ideal summer guilty pleasure drama watch. The drama is being produced by the same producer who did the 2001 Taiwan hit that launched so many careers of the leads, but this one is backed by Chinese money and a mostly C-acting cast, and will air on streaming channel iQiyi. Starring Shen Yue and Dylan Wang as the well-known characters of Tsukushi Makino/Shan Cai and Tsukasa Domyouji/Dao Ming Si, the drama finished filming at the end of March and released the first teaser shows BTS-footage that succeeds in raising the interest in how this version takes the story into yet another decade and the current modern sensibilities.

  • Me too. Cant wait for this drama. Hua che lei has curly hair.. While tao ming tse has straight one. Whatever the style they have, gonna watch this one. Please be good, just be good!

      • but she can still call him zhutou...pig-headed! HAHAAH.

        This is gonna be a blast to watch.

    • Dylan's hair style as Daoming Si during their initial meet is called the pineapple hair and more accurate to the fruit style than outdated curls.

      It's set in the modern millennial era, not the old '90s so they need a fresh look.

  • oooh same i'm loving the cast and the female lead was adorable in a love so beautiful so i can't wait!

    • The guy with dark hair and undone tie is dao ming si (lead), the one with glasses is the one that will be with the best friend of shan cai'the brown hair guy in the midsle is rui that plays violin and the other is the womanizer one

      • Thank you very much !The picture let me think that the lead is the brown hair guy, so I was a little bit confuse.

        The one with glasses is pretty handsome !

  • I'm actually excited for this version as well! I hope it gets subbed once it's released.

  • Is that me or I feel they are following the Japanese version ? Some scenes reminds me of the MaoTsujun ones namely in the 2nd season

    • all scenes look familiar, if you have watched the Korean version as well... But I am glad the female lead here is a lot cuter than the Korean lead... For the male lead, I prefer the Japanese version more...

  • Don't care if the scenes are recognisable. The cast looks good and dressed appropriately. And thank goodness the gowns looks better. The previous versions has the female dressed in awful awful dresses.

    Just please act well, be directed well and not too campy... and I will be a happy fan.

  • I loved the korean version, fun to watch and i loved watching GHS and the guys. At the same time, i loved the japanese version, MJ,OS and our beloved heroine ( i stalked many of their dramas and movies). The only version i didnt watch was Meteor Garden. I felt it was too serious.
