Guest dropdeadbarbi Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 I did not realize how tall Minho was, good Lord, does the boy have height.

Guest star Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 I loved the japanese version. I hope the korean version won't kill it. Japanese cast is much better than korean's though o.o' My preference.
Guest ljphantom Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 Found a nice video that introduced the casting of Boys Before Flowers, both main and secondary characters (note: best watched in high quality). It features a bit of Lee Min-ho's acting (with subtitles), too -- if anyone is curious. I'm just going to repost the translations virvir111 (thank you!) had posted in a different thread here (note: I reordered it in the same order the scans were posted in this thread): Josun dynasty's grass girl. In her filmography she has already been parted of 5 sitcoms and a few dramas. Boys over Flower is her first trendy drama " All of the dramas that i have been apart of were Historical dramas. i've felt more comfortable with acting in historical dramas now, but now that i've been casted in a trendy current drama, i feel like i can be able to control my acting a bit more with more diversity." " I didnt know anything about <Boys over Flowers>. However Since a year ago, netizens and fans would always talk about me being fan-casted in the drama, so i asked about it and heard that it was going to a big scale production. I actually thought about whether to take part in the drama or not. I've been developing a new calm and mature image through my historical dramas, and i felt worried about going back to the happy go lucky and tomboyish image from my debut days. But i thought if i didn't take part now i wouldnt have another chance in the future so i decided to take part" Dont Make Fun of Me because I'm a Noona.. Filming has been fun so far and reminds of the days of <NONSTOP5> (comedy series with MCMONG,,HaHa,, Jan Geun Seok, Han Ye Sul,,Tablo etc.) "Its fun being able to wear uniforms again. I really love uniforms, and when the drama filming ends I'm going to ask the staff if i can keep my uniform. This could possibly be the last uniform i'll be able to wear ever so i want to keep the uniform as a souvenir" " F4 are really nice and friendly. I'm a type of person who can't really go up to people first because i'm shy,, so i'm really thankful that they are more braver than i am. But i really don't like it when they call me "NOONA~!" infront of people .. .i was so surprised when Minho said he was 3 years younger than me..([laughs] LOOKING UP TO SOMEONE AND LOVING SOMEONE IS DIFFERENT. "Jandi is a more 'who cares about what others think of me? Whats wrong with me?' She has alot of confidence and women power." " Jandi always fights and argues with the person that likes her and eventually she will end up falling in love with JunPyo. Jihoo is a person that jandi doesnt really want, but someone she looks up to, he is someone that Jandi wants to protect, and in the beginning she mistakes that for love. Maybe thats the difference Jandi saw in love between JunPyo and JiHoo. " JUNPYO LEE MINHO. In Junpyo's world there is nothing that can't be done. Born into one of the World's Top 30 most richest man's family, son of one of the biggest corporation in the world,, he has always lived life the way he wanted and got everything he wanted. He doesnt know what ' facing hard obstacles in life ' means. His a kid who doesn't know what failing in life is either. " When i went to my audition i even permed my hair. I wanted to show them my determination." " When i got the part, i felt that there was nothing in this world that could intmidate me. [PUHAHAH] i started my ' how to become full of myself luxury boy project' around August when i got the role. JunpYo is a boy who can do EVERYTHING except knowing how to swim. he can ride horses, play golf, Squash, piano.. i had to learn these during my practices. i even had to perm my hair 4 times to get this thing to look as it does now..! " JunPyo is a really scary, violent, and has overflowing charimsa, but when he meets Geum Jandi, junpyo becomes more human and loosens up, even men would look up to this kind of change.. i think..(laughs." INTERVIEWER.. " but don't you think your height of 185cm is a bit too tall??" Minho/JunpYo " JUNPYO IS SUPPOSED TO BE 185 CENTIMETERS!! (laughs) " although he is really rude and can talk in really mean manner, his posture and aura is what i need to show alot on screen. the director always tells us how to pose to come out better.. " before filming i was sort of worried and felt pressured about taking the role,, but surprising on the day of filming that was all gone and i was relaxed.. " KIM HYUN JOONG - YOON JI HOO . I usually dont monitor myself,, but for <BOYS OVER FLOWER> I definitely will. The first manhwa i ever read was <BOYS OVER FLOWERS>. When i was asked audition by GROUP8 i wanted to go to the Manhwa borrowing place to read over the manga, but i was so embarrased. I was too embarrased to go to the TrendFantasy manhwa section, so i told the manager to just go to ChunGaeChun ManHwa store and buy the entire series and i'm reading it at home. All the series are scattered all over my house right now because i'm reading them again for the role. I get goosebumped out and still feel a tickly having to say all those mushy line for the drama because I'm really into manly adventurous dramas and movies, and can't really say those things easily,, but i dont think it'll be a problem because the viewers are going to be watching me as Yoon Ji Hoo who has the image of the classic romantic guy. I'm going to try my best for the viewers." Just like a son of a rich man, Ji Hoo is supposed to be perfect and good at everything. " I'm practicing to hold chopsticks more properly right now.." " It was really awkward meeting the other F4 members but after we had a Soju Party and had a few drinks we've become closer, we let go of everything, all the worries we had and the pressure we had that night. I call KimBum to go play pool on the freedays. It's so much easier acting because we are much closer now.. I want to reshoot all the previous scenes that we did on the first day of filming!" " When i told my friends about me being casted,, they all said 'just act like how you usually act!' A quiet but random 4 dimensional Flower boy is Kim Hyun Joong image among koreans and this is also the same for the character of Yoon Ji Hoo. "I'm really shy too,, i think 80% of our personalities are similar. but Yoon Ji Hoo is more feminine and overwhelming sometimes,,, i really like partying crazy and doing what guys do for fun,, so i'll have to practice a bit more.." " i can play the guitar so i'm more used to holding the strings with my left hand but using the stick and controlling it is a bit hard for me, but so far right now i can play the "happy birthday song" with the violin." KIMBUM- SO EE-JUNG I honestly felt pressure to be part of the F4. i would be lieing if i said i didn't feel a least bit of pressure. But I'm working hard so i hope it will be shown on screen just as much. To make sure the manga would be able to be accepted more to korean viewers, i will be a Celadon Pottery Making artist , and the son of one of the korean independent activists from the early 1900s, as well as the future owner of Korean Historic Museum.(they like own every one of korean artifacts..) . I'm going to be playing a teen who debuted at the age of 16 as a korean traditional pottery maker that UNESCO (organization that deals with world's historical artifacts and wonders of the world etc..) had chosen/accepted as a respected genius. My character is good mannered playboy. On the inside,, the character has been hurt alot. he has been hurt alot in the past with his first love and holds deep inside other tragic happenings with his family. " i played a young child role in <East of Eden> and now i'm going to be playing a grown up playboy role which is alot different from my previous drama. "Its more important to be loyal and focused on my character role and to bring out as much as i can to satisfy my role than to show up on screen the longest. Either reading over the script once twice or a hundred times, each time i read it, the script seems different and new. If i'm able to understand my character to the fullest, i think i can become part of the character and live life in the eye of the character while filming. this is my goal." So Ee Jung is a character who is very picky and knows how to keep his perfect, clean image. even while filming KimBum is just as focused. from how the film is being shot to looking at the stylists selection of clothes for F4. " So Ee Jung is ME. Of course i have to act like him on set. So Ee Jung always gets his point across and makes sure his opinion is taken and listened to by others." [laughs] DOESNT HE FREAKING SOUND SOOO MATURE???!? N HIS THE YOUNGEST! so differnt from Minho's interview.. ( who yelled at the interviewer..lol..but something JunPyo would do..) KIM JUN - OOBIN. I dont really read or have interest in manhwas..but i've read <BOYS OVER FLOWER> for this role. I'm sort of amazed that i will be able to take part in this drama production. My ent. company asked me to audition for something so i went, but i didn't know it was for <BOYS OVER FLOWERS> until i got casted. I seriously don't know why or how i got picked. I just thought,, 'well this is my first audition so i guess i will do what they tell me.'(laughs). But i don't want the viewers or the casting directors and staff to say " why did they/we pick him.?" so Im going to do my best to satisfy the viewers. i dont want to dissapoint myself or fans who are expecting alot for the drama. " T-Max is the group he is in.the Maknae in the idol group, but on set. Jun is the oldest. " my members found out that i had been casted for the role when GROUP8 formally announced the casted people for the F4. They all called me a traitor saying how could i not have told them earlier,, i sort of wanted to keep it a secret because i felt pressured and sort of scared in a way." " i'm in love both with being a singer and pursuing my acting career. i can't choose between the two, they are both different and have their own characteristic i want to be part of." " in F4 im the oldest,, its awkward because i'm usually the youngest, but the kids (F4) are really good and listen well..(lol) they are all nice and are helpful to me. I'm really shy but if i get to know someone really well i end up usually being the loudest. " " in the drama i'm going be to playing a playboy.. but that's probably my biggest challenge because usually when i have interest in a girl, i cant even talk usually end up ignoring them for some reason,, maybe i'll get really into the character and start up some scandal.."[laughs]
ilwoo_aein Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 Awww, thanx lilcrash for the latest pictures of them..They look good to be Korean F4 you know?! Way to go Kkot Boda Namja!! What?! There's another thread about this drama? It's so confusing..Why don't they just post the latest pictures in this thread?
saguer Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 Can you send me a message to the link to the other one? Thanks. Here it is: http://www.soompi.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=250501
Guest Aikyrie Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 I heard theyre filming in the US. Does anyone know where and when?
Guest ljphantom Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 I heard theyre filming in the US. Does anyone know where and when? I was hoping it was U.S., but it's not. Both Tobemist and virvir111 said that it was actually New Caledonia, near Australia. There also seems to be a fanmeeting, featuring the F4 (Lee Min-ho, Kim Hyung-joong, Kim Bum, and Kim Joon) in Korea on 12/22 -- according to this website, which I ran through babelfish from Japanese to English. In any case, there seems to be a significant effort to draw Japanese audience to Boys Before Flowers (Korean HYD); TBS, the same channel that aired the original HYD, will air the Korean version in Japan. There were some new photos, albeit a little small, of Jandi and the F4 from one Japanese site, which were simply compiled into one image for your viewing convenience by yours truly: Just reposting the new photos virvir111 (thank you!) has shared in the other thread:
ilwoo_aein Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 saquer: Whoaaaaa, i like Korean F4 version..Thank you very much for the link... I prefer Min Ho's hair style when he was on Mackerel Run;it suits him more.. As for the others, i give two thumbs up.. Hohoho, i'd like to see Kim Bum acts as Seo Yi Jeong..
Guest Tobemist Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 Apparently there are some complaints at dcinside for the drama's final logo design. I just want to mention it here because I also find it a bit disappointing, the logo somehow seems quite effortless for a drama like this. It's really cartoonish and in some way reminds me of the 'comic sans' font, which is like a big NO in graphic design ;;. I am hoping they could made some changes but chances are pretty slim. Actually I'd rather see them using the first logo they used on the teaser poster. It's tidier, much more professional, and at least they have their flower concept going. Maybe that's just me being picky... Forgive me... It's my occupational disease... hehe Here's the finalised logo design: And the teaser poster logo design:
Guest crystalys Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 The more I see the actor that will play tsukasa I think he's good he really looks like the Tsukasa in manga he's tall strong and what can I say about the curly hair ^___^ of course my favourite is Hyun Joong but we need to like Tsukasa coz he's the one that will appear more than the others and his acting willl be the most important, can't say anything about the girl since I don't know anything, she does look cute let's hope she can play her character well. I know it will start next month but anybody here knows the date? main page only said December. Thanks
Guest heorungnghenhac Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 I know it will start next month but anybody here knows the date? main page only said December. At first they said it will be aired on Dec 28th. But now maybe on Dec 22nd, after Worlds Within
Guest MiyuKanata09 Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 in the picture where min ho is like shooting something..he really does look so hot.. and also kim bum.. he does look so cute holding a girl's hand.. i really wanna see him acting a playboy.. korea's version of F4 is very fashionable.. we can really see that they were super rich.. unlike the past version.. i can't really say that they were the richest kid..
Guest Tobemist Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 That isn't the official poster is it? ^ No, it's not. Just the logo (title design) is supposedly official.
Guest .dcpro02 Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 aww ghs is gona be great in this drama! i can already imagine her as the main chick! very cute and pretty =]~ ahh the four man boys are all so cute and handsome! cnt wait to c leaders acting, it'll be a first for me kekekek thanks so much for providing news and updates on this !~ cnt wait til it airs and im so happy withs2 are most likely subbing this project !!~ woohoo fighting <33
Guest xx-outsider-xx Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 ohmigod, minho's permed hair is SO WILD. haha. i thot it was ok before, bearable, but the magazine pictures showed the hair going all over the place. haha.
Guest anne0129 Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 At first they said it will be aired on Dec 28th. But now maybe on Dec 22nd, after Worlds Within Gosh! So they are going against East of Eden? I was hoping that it would be a Wed/Thurs drama......I want them to do great but I think EOE is a strong competitor.......Hope they do great in so they will have a 2nd installment like the Taiwanese and Japanese version. I still love KIM BUM and I am so looking forward to his love story with GHS. (not yet familiar with the character names though sorry!)..
Guest ellas Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 I'm sorry to jump in the thread like that. hello everyone i'm ellas, 21 years old.. nice to meet you all !! ^^ First of all kyaaaaa~~ i'm so impatient.. Hyun Joong as Rui is an awesome choice and the pics he is wow ! *__* But does anyone is feeling, like me, the actress looks really older than them ?
