I heard so many good reviews on this k-drama that i had to watch it. It's currently on Hulu with English subtitles. Just do a search for "Boys Before Flowers". It is a rather long mini series with a total of 25 episodes. You will have to stick with 45 second commercials. For every 1 hour episode there are about 6 commercials in between.
The synopsis is about four boys that go to a private high school just for rich kids. Eventfully a commoner girl ends up going to the same school and the drama unveils the story between each of the kids. For the first half of the series, the story is funny, full of life, and entertaining. The second half is sappy, and lovey dovy - with lots of make up and break up. Typical k-drama.
구혜선 (Goo Hye Sun) who plays the main heroine does a pretty good job with her role. Her cute smile and energetic character is charismatic. She has one of those smiles that just brightens up your day.
I was debating on what rating to give this drama. It lost a few points because it just dragged on a bit too long. 20 episodes would have been perfect. I honestly didn't see the last 5 episodes as necessary.
Rating: 8/10
