I've watched all versions of this drama, and I can assure you that this one is the best. Meteor Garden 2001 may be the first one to start it, but in my opinion, it doesn't stand a chance. Boys over Flowers the Korean version makes the the Korean version of Makino annoying. Meteor Garden 2018 is good but they just ruin it with the Joker Card. Hana Yori Dango kept the basics and out of all the versions, it gives you the most heart wretched feeling. Not to mention, that the cast had the best chemistry with each other the best, and for me that's what makes the drama great. It has season 1 and 2, it lasted about 20 something episode. But it does have a movie to it, so it may be a little long, but at least it's not as long as Meteor Garden and both of it versions (about 20 something episodes and season 2 has 30 something episodes. For 2018 the drama has about 50 episodes).
