A sequel of the story, Hana Nochi Hare is slated to premier on the 17th of April on Japanese Channel TBS. Hana Nochi Hare follows a similar format to Hana Yori Dango with the rich kids/poor girl storyline that manga writer Yoko Kamio have accustomed fans to. The number of Hana Nochi Hare’s episodes is yet unknown; however, it should be around 11 episodes, the average for a Japanese drama.

Oh Yeon Joo (Han Hyo Joo) is a doctor who lives in the real world. She is the daughter of the famous cartoonist and creator of the manhwa,”W”, Oh Sung Moo (Kim Eui Seong). The main character in “W” is Kang Cheol (Lee Jong Suk), a former, olympic athlete whose family was murdered. One day, Oh Yeon Joo is dragged into the world of “W”, where she saves Kang Cheol. He becomes curious about the mysterious woman, and they slowly start to care for each other. This Kdrama will make you question what is real and what is fake in every possible way. Is there a happy ending for them?
For those who love coming-of-age romcom dramas, Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo is perfect for you. It follows the life of Kim Bok Joo, whose character is based on South Korean Olympic gold-medalist Jang Mi Ran. The plot almost meanders lazily as it navigates through Bok Joo’s first love, friendships, rivalries and the strenuous training of an athlete. Yet, the pace doesn’t make you want to drop the episode halfway through; it carries you along from the beginning till the end and leaves you craving for the next episode. Rarely have I seen a drama set at such a pace, yet still makes you stick with it till the end. Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo warms your heart and all it makes you want to do is hug it. It is Bok Joo’s story, but it is also all of the viewers’ stories of friendships and first loves.
