Sooo much better than BOF. Events happened quicker, Jae Kyung's equivalent was less irritating, less prominent, and ended up giving Makino to Domyoji sooner. I liked the T.O.J contest more than the spontaneous island trip, and Okami-son better than the owner of the porridge restaurant. Okami amuses me with the man men she's loved.
Akira and Okami are cute, and I like that Akira has a larger part than Song Woo Bin.
Domyoji is much better than Gu Jun Pyo, for me. He is more respectful of Makino and her bounderies, and doesn't force her to be with him like Jun Pyo does. Even when he calls her his girlfriend, he later told her that he only said that to get Rui off his back, and that he was aware she hadn't given him a reply yet. He is also more mature  than Jun Pyo. Jun Pyo always seemed a little ridiculous adn over the top to me, and I never loved him as a character; I was more interested in his dynamic with Jan Di. But I like Domyoji as a character, as well as his dynamic with Makino. As for Rui,  I like him more than Ji Hoo.  He is more supportive of Makino and Domyoji's relationship and Makino's crush on him didn't last long so there isn't too much of a love triangle. Also, the Saturn necklace is better than the moon and star because the moon and star always seemed a bit rude to me like, yeah you can't leave me. Like, um, a little intimidating there. But the saturn necklace is gorgeous and more meaningful, they're both from Saturn. Also, I like Makino's declaration of love much more.
So Hana Yori Dango?
I'm loving it.
(Boys Over Flowers fans: This is my personal opinion! Feel free to prefer BOF! Everyone has their own taste and both shows are good and valid! :) )
