[CDrama] Let's Go Watch Meteor Shower (2009)

What's it I'm hearing on the net about Mainland also thinking about making a TV-drama based on Hana Yori Dango?

I know that the story is a big hit. Got the highest rating at that time in Taiwan, 2 dramas and 1 movie in Japan and the rating is going up quickly in Korea. But I'm quite sceptical about this version...

Most of the youth dramas that I have seen from Mainland China (I don't think that they produce that much youth dramas in Mainland) is either good in the beginning but later gets boring or just uninteresting.

I've heard about this as well. It seems like every nation wants to do their own Boys Before Flowers, doesn't it?

I honestly cannot recall a single "youth" drama from Mainland China. Usually when I think of them, I think more historical, wuxia, hardcore melodrama type things. Plus, I honestly cannot think of any late teens/early 20s actors. But, I don't really watch many Mainland dramas.

The story of Meteor Garden isn't really all that fluffy and teen drama-ish. Japan really just played off the fact that it's a manga to make it more light-hearted. When you actually look at the subject matter involved (rape, violence, dominance... a little S&M... )... It's really geared towards a serious drama with a few moments of WTF? manga surrealism.

Not that mainland China doesn't have oodles of idols to stuff into any role they want.

Anyway... I've heard rumors about Top Combine members and various Superboys being cast in this. Casting has still not been confirmed yet though.

You'll probably find this interesting. It's rumors and leakage for the possible cast.

This is de wiki link http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Liu_Xing_Yu

The beginning is funny, they're really going fast. It started on August 8, and now they're on episode 7, it's been aired daily.

If you want you can watch it here subtitled.

I am actually really enjoying this drama, I like how the story is different to others, although there are similarities, all the characters are cool, the girl doesn't annoy me as much lol

clarissann · Post by **clarissann** » Aug 25th, '09, 11:58

akiko-chico · Post by **akiko-chico** » Sep 6th, '09, 05:52

I quite enjoyed the drama!! I like the relationship between the two leads a bit better than say the other remakes done. Like at least the girl gives some emotions back rather than just the guy saying all his feelings.

On another note, is anyone going to continue subbing the series? Pretty Please I hope someone picks it up

I eventually caved in and watched in online.

whitters · Post by **whitters** » Jan 12th, '10, 09:59

I just finished watching it. I LOVED it

I read alot of reviews though, saying that it was crappy ...

I actually wanted there to be more "happy" time, when they aren't massively misunderstanding each other. It seemed like 99% fighting and misunderstanding, and 1% happiness. This version showed (or completely omitted) some interesting things, which are a fascinating reflection on Chinese society and culture.

The flippin uncle was ridiculously stupid, like they put the stupidity of her family into him and then multiplied it exponentially. I did skip a fair bit, often if he was on screen.

And the Evil Mother, oh dear, at times she seemed nearly human, but mostly was crazy as. The dad was much more sensible, though at times he let her run amuck.

Hello next season.

I agree with the dad comment!! He was soo annoying I skipped over him too haha. I wonder what they will decide on for second season, and yes I need more happy chappy moments haha

aimlesswanderer · Post by **aimlesswanderer** » Jan 16th, '10, 11:23

I really hope that they either make the Uncle character at least a little sensible, or he "goes overseas" for the entire next season. Damn, that would be nice. I'd need to skip much less in that case.

Yep, more happy moments, to little pay off for my liking.

Also, it would be nice to hear the cast's actual voices, as apparently they were dubbed over! That is very weird.

shosef · Post by **shosef** » Mar 1st, '10, 20:47

well...as much i as want to watch this series since there's no sub for ep. 7, i have to restrain myself...but i have seen the pics for the 2nd season and they all look so cute...especially the girl....love her dress....

whitters · Post by **whitters** » Mar 2nd, '10, 07:43

does anyone know when season 2 comes out?

Puppet Princess · Post by **Puppet Princess** » Mar 3rd, '10, 04:36

Not sure if an actual date is set but it's filming now.

akiko-chico · Post by **akiko-chico** » Aug 13th, '10, 06:53

I'm so excited for the next season, I hope it's good

Does anyone know if they are continuing to release the eng sub srt files for season 1?

Archaenon · Post by **Archaenon** » Oct 14th, '10, 04:12

So , I tried watching this online , this is become incredibly aggravating actually lol. I have never watched a streaming show before , I am a little sad it seems like TW dramas don't warrant torrents or anything , I can't get the megaupload links to download the whole episode for some reason either.

I don't want to sound like I'm complaining , but if anyone can give me a site where watching it can actually be enjoyable , I'd love you forever.

Are you guys doing both seasons? I'm curious, as I have both seasons In decent quality, but no subs, and I'm dying to see what happens in season 2.

Renai FanSubs · Post by **Renai FanSubs** » Aug 17th, '11, 20:46

We'll see how the first season goes before committing to the second. If the interest is there we will

Also, we anticipate that the first episode (episode 7) will be out the beginning of September
