Story

This Drama is based on the popular manga from the same name. The story is about Ashiya Mizuki, a girl who idolizes a guy named Sano Izumi who compete in the High Jump on the t.v, but suddenly stops for an injury. In order to make her idol jump again, she run away from home (U.S) to Japan to be closer to him. She transfer to his High School, but the problem is, it's an all-boys school. So, her adventure of keeping her secret uncovered and pretend to be a guy in an all-boys high school starts.


~ Spoilers ~

Ashiya who transfered all the way to an all-boys school just to meet her idol Sano to convince him to high jump again had a main reason. When Sano was in U.S for a competition, he was badly injured because he saved a girl who was surrounded by bad men at night. That girl was Ashiya herself. That's the reason why she wanted to make him jump again because she feels responsible for what happened to him.

She told her family that she wanted to do something really important for her in Japan. Although they didn't agree, she cut her hair and left U.S (ran from home) and applied to the school which Sano in. She learned how to act, dress, eat and talk like guys which worked very well till she was injured in a marathon and had to go to the nurse's office where her identity was discovered by Dr. Umeda Hokuto. But, after knowing her reasons, he supported her and helped her each time she needed a help.

However, is she's really going to survive now that she moved to Sano's room and started being his roommate?? Will she be able to keep her identity uncovered, or will Sano know that she's a girl?? How will everybody else react if they knew? and how will Nakatsu Shuichi react after having a hard time dealing with his feelings towards her, thinking that she's a guy and he's starting to be a homosexual. This Japanese drama is truly funny. I'm a big fan of Hana Kimi since I read the manga and I loved it. There is also a Taiwanese series of Hana Kimi as well, but the Japanese version is much better.

So far, my rate is 10/10 for this drama. I love the funny soundtracks, the awesome graphics, the funny and different characters and of course the story. I just love the comedy and funny moments this series have. Here is a music video to see how funny this drama is, showing how Nakatsu likes Ayashi, lol. Enjoy ^_^



Here is another music video which introduce the main actors in this series with their real names as well. For those who are fan of Japanese drama, Sano Izumi (Oguri Shun) is Hanazawa Rui from Hana Yori dango I and II. Ashiya Mizuki (Horikita Maki) is the heroine from Nobuta Wo Produce and Kurosagi.

Story

The opening for this drama is odd with the main actors wearing some old aged clothes. The story begins when Lee Mong-ryong a guy who gets in fight all the time and been transferring for many times is moving again as well. This time, he transferred from Seoul to a high school in Namwon. (Seoul is a big city while Namwon is like a country side village). He accidentally see Chun-Hyang a girl climbing the wall and jumping to the other side and fall on him while he was shooting a video on his cellphone, so he got embarrassing video of her. She checked his cellphone and was shocked and ended up smashing his phone. In return, Mong-ryong who was upset, got her cellphone as replacement because she didn't agree to repair his and ran away. As a result, they kept in contact, to discover later that they are in the same school as well.

After some events where Mong-ryong and Chun-Hyang ended up sleeping in the same place, but nothing happened between them, they found themselves forced into marriage by their families. They had to agree on the mirrage or Chun-Hyang who is a top student is going to lose her chance of getting into the best University. So, with time, they both develop some feelings for each other and Chun-Hyang change the lazy and spoiled Mong-Ryong to a better man. She even helped him in his studies and he gained that allow him to go to the best University in South Korea as her.

However, Chae-rin who is Mong-ryong's first love who rejected him at the beginning which was one of the reasons he changed his mind about marriage, was dumped. At that time, she started to turn her attentions to Mong-ryong and confess her love to him.

Also, things becomes more complicated when a strict cold man Byun Hak-do falls in love with Chun-hyang who her love changed him to be more softer.

~ Spoilers ~

However, when she refuse him many times and no matter how hard he tries, rather than giving up. Byun Hak-do becomes more determined to make her fall in love with him at any cost taking advantage of the relationship between Mong-ryong and Chae-rin to end up teaming up with Chae-rin to break the couple and their marriage as well. When all their plans seems to fail, Byun Hak-do set up Mong-Ryong for a crime and videotape it to blackmail Chun-hyang into breaking up with Mong-Ryong and being with him instead only a few days before their official wedding ceremony.



Chun-hyang who is forced to obey break up with her husband and pretend to be with Byun Hak-do and do everything he says until the day they are going to leave to Japan together. She ran off from the plane and went on hiding from everyone. What will happen when she ran into Byun Hak-do again? and what will Mong-Ryong do when he know the truth behind her request of divorce?? That is what will you know after you watch this awesome funny drama.

I give this drama 9/10 to be one of the funniest drama I ever watched. It even have some scenes after the episode ends which is as funny as the drama is. My rating was based on the story, the amazing soundtracks that are cute and warm and the characters personalities and acting which is great. This drama also has a part where everything gets complicated and you're not sure how it will end up like.

This is a good music video that I enjoyed watching. It sums up the whole drama. Hope you'll enjoy it too!! ^_^
