Meteor Garden: A Netflix Original Series

Who remembers that famous Taiwanese television series, Meteor Garden?  For avid Asian Drama fanatics like myself, of course I remember!  The series is based on the Japanese shojo manga series titled Boys Over Flowers by Yoko Kamio.  The series was so popular that Netflix released a Chinese remake of the said series.  Let me tell you, the remake version is so much better than the first!  It's cuter, more romantic, and funnier all together!

The story revolves around an ordinary girl named Dong Shancai, who got accepted into Ming De University, the country's most prestigious school.  She comes from a loving and tight-knit family who barely make ends meet. She clashes with F4, an elite clique composed of the four most popular boys in the university, especially with Daoming Si, F4's spoiled, rich, and arrogant leader.  As the story goes on, Daoming Si realizes that he's falling in love with Shancai only to find out she actually likes one of his best friends, Huaze Lei.  

The group refers to her as "a weed that can never be brought down."  She begins seeing the good personalities of each of the F4 members and slowly became friends with them.  She and Daoming Si eventually falls in love with each other but is opposed by Si's mother due to Shancai's social standing being totally different from theirs.  Facing many challenges in their relationship, the love and bond grew stronger and only one can guess what the ending would be.
