Lee Min Ho is the actor playing the main lead (Goo Joon Pyo) in the new Korean drama "Boys Before Flowers" . Which is kind of not so new because it is a 3rd (!!!) adaptation of the popular manga "Hana Yori Dango". There have been already 2 adaptations from Taiwan ("Meteor Garden", one of the first Asian dramas I watched. I keep strong feelings of great love for it) and Japan but it seems that the story never goes old because the new Korean version is hugely popular in Korea , among Internet-fans of Asian dramas and is actively subtitled by fans to 14 languages (including Russian). What is the key to so much success of this story? I honestly don't know! It is all about a strong poor girl taming a self-centered spoiled rich boy. Why not to love? I am afraid this manga is going to be adapted into a never-ending Western soap opera soon.

Especially when the Korean version of self-centered spoiled rich boy is played by Lee Min Ho. Korea is a country which seem to produce an exeptional amounts of good looking yong men and women. Only few and far between them are, however, good at acting. Lee Min Ho certainly is good.
