I think I am in complete minority with Korean BoF.

- I still like it very much; this drama is not in my top 5 but definitely is in my top 10-15 Korean dramas.

- I am still shipping JanDi/JunPyo. Gosh, Lee Min Ho is so gorgeous I will ship him with anyone until the ends of time.

- I don't ship Jan Di / Ji Hoo at all. This is a surprise for me because I had a soft spot for Lei/Shankai when he made the Meteor Garden for her, I shipped Rui/Makino with quite an obsession (I confess I even cried a bit at the end :D) and I really like Ji Hoo himself. But there is something in him that makes me think I would prefer to ship him with a boy and that moment he had with Jun Pyo sleeping in his bed sealed it.

- I am quite glad that we got a different version of the story and it is a Korean drama through and through, with over-the-top angst, mopping and all such things .

+ The only thing that is bad for me in Korean Boys Over Flowers is the herouine. I don't know if the problem for me is in her constant mopping because Makino did a fair bit of mopping in Japanese version too. I think I just don't like Jan Di, I don't see why Ji Hoo and Jun Pyo should like her, etc. etc. Koo Hye Sun looks older than the rest of the cast, I am not fond of her acting and she has a haircut that should be strictly banned from hairdressing.

Below is my attemp at a purely scientific poll I tried to make to find out your preferences:

I figured it wasn't really true, but the fact that people are speculating about it makes me think there might be a grain of truth. Also, some of it is my bias; I spent a long time studying acting, so I'm always impressed by actors who are willing to do go the distance for their parts. I've always admired Ariel for that reason.

I kinda guessed as much! The paleness thing seems so odd to me (here in the US, we're obsessed with being darker and more tan). I know the pale preference is rather universal in the entertainment industry, so I don't doubt there are other actresses who do it, I just haven't yet heard of any.

Hehehe! That's okay! I'm ridiculously biased towards my favorite drama actresses.
