After saving a boy from jumping off the roof of Shinhwa High School, she is admitted into the school on a swimming scholarship. Jan Di tries to avoid confrontation with the F4 at all cost because she knows what happens to those that stand against them.

I adore Minho, but if I had seen this drama first, I probably wouldn't be a fan. The writing is incoherent, with great leaps of logic and mindless plot rambling throughout. We start out with a group of school terrorists who are hazing kids badly enough to make them commit suicide, and suddenly they are loyal, compassionate, attentive, and tender. Huh?? I only made it past the first episode because I wanted to watch Minho. ...

This is the Korean manifestation of the Japanese Hana Yori Dango and the Taiwanese Meteor Garden. However, I've seen neither of those, so I went into this story fresh. The Premise: In the Boys Before Flowers world, Korea is domineered by the corporate Shinhwa Group. Short of the president, there is no one more powerful than Shinhwa. They do everything: manufacturing, business, retail, and they even have a school/university where only the richest go to get the finest education....

This serie is strangely addictive even though I know it's horrible. The first 6 episodes start out very promising. The conflicts, tension and the main love triangle (between Jandi, Jun Pyo and Ji Hoo) are nicely developed. I got immediately hooked. But episodes 7 to 12 are terribly slow and ridiculous at times. And starting with episode 13 till the end, the plot is a complete disaster. Lee Min Ho is smoking hot, but the script is so poorly written in the second half that it nearly destroyed the charm of the Jun Pyo character. Watch it if you want to check out the hype, but leave logic and reason behind you, cuz there are so many places where it doesn't make sense it's laughable.

I'm so in love with this drama. I love you Ji Hoo Sunbae. You should be with Jan Di instead of Gu Jun Pyo and the song "Because I'm Stupid" by SS501 was really a great song. Everyone should watch this

A good drama, but every episode ends in such a suspenseful, keep-them-watching way that it can get annoying and makes it hard to stop watching. It seems like a drama which was made purely to get viewers. On the bright side, because of this it is jam-packed with comedy, action and, of course, romance.
