This story is placed 10 years after the original Boys Over Flowers timeline, this is deemed a second season for that matter a continuance if you will but with a different or newer generation taking over what once was F4 at Eitoku which is now known as the C5. The story seems very similar to that of the F4 but even though there was some potential in the story it's rather disappointing overall, there is a lot of back and forth on trivial things the actors are nice but their characters or the way the characters are portrayed come off as very annoying in some cases and I couldn't bring myself to empathize with most of the characters. The story just seemed so forced and uncomfortable that I was just trying to get through it near the last episodes, particularly the last 2 or 3 episodes. The story also starts dragging a lot past the first 3 or 4 episodes and the lead girl's attitude/demeanor can be so annoying and frustrating.

The ending was weird, incomplete and very disappointing regardless of what is going on in the story, everything is too rushed even the ending... I wish there was a bit more backstory to things and that characters were made out to be more appealing in terms, when I get into a drama I usually have a range of emotions and have characters I am rooting for that captivate me throughout the episode's heck even characters I hate that make me want to throw a shoe at the screen and make me yell at the screen like a crazy person but with this story I generally was just rooting for Haruto because it's the only character I could make any connection with and I found Airy's personality kinda funny as well as cute, the C5 was no F4 but they weren't the worst part of the story either. I actually liked the music more than the story since at least it was good. I wouldn't re-watch this though and having waited so long to finish it just to get disappointed sucks.

The only other thing that was pretty great was the cameos of some of the F4 members in the drama, but other than that I can never like this more than the original Japanese version or even the Korean version. This was a very disappointing "follow up" that had a lot of promise.
