EXO-M version of Boys Over Flowers

Hey!

So, I recently finished watching Boys Over Flowers and I have to say that it was awesome. Boys Over Flowers is the first ever Korean Drama I've ever watched and the drama really got me interested in Kdramas. Right now I'm currently watching To the Beautiful You starring Minho and Sulli, and Meteor Shower which is the Chinese version of Boys Over Flowers. So here is a picture of Boys Over Flowers and Meteor Shower.

If you've seen Meteor Shower, then you probably know that the plot is twisted in a unique way which I personally find it really interesting because it's not really fun watching Japanese, Korean, and Taiwanese version all following the same plot. Anyways, I don't really think that EXO-M fits the Meteor Shower character's personalities, but for Boys Over Flowers, they do.

I honestly can see Kris as Gu Jun Pyo just because he is the tallest out of all six, and he has that angry bird face like Jun Pyo. Jun Pyo's is a very protective person, and Kris definitely has that protective aura around him, but at the same time, Jun Pyo does smile a lot and I think if Kris tried, he can definitely produce a bright smile. I definitely see Kris do the same things as Jun Pyo.

As for So Yi Jun, I definitely think Tao would be the best fit because when Tao smiles, he has that "player" look and plus he's really good looking. Yi Jung's character is very flirtations, has that arrogance, but at the same time, we did see Yi Jung's soft side when he was with Ga Eul. Although Tao is a shy person, we've all seen Tao's arrogance or should I say confidence when he was on Do Your Best when he was high up in the air singing MAMA. I think that if Tao gained just a little bit more confidence, I know that he would play a good Yi Jung. Plus there are a lot of fighting scenes in Boys Over Flowers and I think that Tao should definitely show off his talent in wushu. Or, they could add a scene where Tao save Ga Eul from robbers using his awesome wushu skills.

I think that Luhan fits best with Ji Hoo because of both their personalities. Both Ji Hoo and Luhan have that kindness and vulnerability in their eyes. Ji Hoo smiles a lot in the drama just like Luhan in real life. Almost every interview EXO-M has been, Luhan always smiles, and both are very caring people. I think that the main difficulty for Luhan is that Ji Hoo is very nice, and gentle which Luhan has but, Ji Hoo is also very manly, he rides on motorcycles, he kisses Jan Di, and he does punch people in the drama. Punching is honestly something that I can't see Luhan do but for some reason, I do see Luhan riding a motorcycle and kissing Jan Di. Other than that, Luhan has the same hairstyle as Ji Hoo and the same smile which makes him the perfect Ji Hoo.

In terms of Woo Bin, I'm torn between either Lay or Hangeng. I'm leaning towards Hangeng more than Lay because Woo Bin's character is really mature and I just don't think Lay is mature enough. I really don't know, what do you guys think?

What do you guys think? Hangeng or Lay?

For Geum Jan Di, I think Victoria from fx is the best fit because they both have that cuteness. I think that Victoria is extremely cute, but I do have a hard time seeing her yelling. However, I maybe wrong, since she already has acting experience starring Ya Yin at a new Taiwanese drama, When Love Walked In. I do see Victoria doing things like what Jan Di did, for example the high kick, wearing that Wonder Woman outfit, and being drunk. I'm not gonna lie, I do think that many people will be jealous of Victoria because she does get to kiss both Luhan and Kris.
