One more (yes, more) Boys Before Flowers special video
by javabeans
First off, in case you were still wondering what’s up with the last half of the “F4 Special Edition After Story” music drama, for no explained reason the release was pushed back. (Parts 1 and 2 with Kim Bum and Kim Joon indicated we could expect Parts 3 and 4 to air on May 5, but they are now being released tomorrow instead, May 19.)
I’m all for milking that cash cow for all it’s worth, but really, is there anyone left who’s excited for news of yet another special to be released after Kim Hyun-joong and Lee Min-ho‘s parts are shown tomorrow? Because another video is being revealed, with a “special package” album released on May 25.
Seeing as how the public has been so eager to welcome the F4 boys in photo shoots and CFs and new projects, they are putting out a 50-minute “making of” video of the special edition project, which will air on cable channel Mnet on May 19, 6pm.
CORRECTION! Sorry, I got more info from another news source. Making-of clip will be shown on May 19, along with the full version of the music drama. Special package album of Special Edition songs to be released May 25.
SONG OF THE DAY
Kim Bum – F4 Special Edition – “지금 만나러 갑니다” (I’m going to meet you now), originally a Park Geun-chul song.. As I said when his part aired, Kim Bum’s singing voice is surprisingly good. Not “good for an actor” good, but “wow, actually could be one of those actors who has a real singing career” good. [ Download ]

I'm just wondering when the series will be officially available on DVD (and not the low quality kind available on ebay). My mother liked Hana Yori Dango and is dying to watch this version.
Javabeans, would you happen to know any info on this?

Oh my goodness! Yayyy I know Im still excited lol although i think they should just make a movie and get it over with like hana yori dango instead of all these little projects( and they better have spent so much time making these next two parts good, because the last two were awful and i would rather they didn't show woobin's part if it was going to be him getting dumped).

saw your edit, i was confused too, because i had seen the cover used for the special edition album listing on a few sites, but that cleared it up. : ) thanks a bunch for your lovely updates.

Jasmin, its already on DVD here in Singapore. The first set I got was poor quality - looked like 2nd generation video. Got worse in the last disc (last five eps) - subbing went downhill - really unintelligible gibberish and the picture quality of the last ep was extremely poor. I returned it to the shop and a week later swopped it for a new set which was of much better quality - very sharp pictures and acceptable subs, although I felt some lacked meaning esply after reading Javabeans recaps.

So that's why it's an hour long. I guess our hopes of seeing an hour long JD-JP-JH is too good to be true. I bet the making will be longer than the story itself. As much as I'm exciting with all these BOF news...I'm keeping myself from hoping too much. I'm not even expecting an appearance from GHS/KSE or KHJ...oh well, i guess we'll just have to take in all their 'money-milking-schemes' :)
Nonetheless, I'm still exciting to see this hehe..

Omo, omo!!! Never expected that voice from him. Why didn't they just have him sing instead of [failing miserably at] playing the sax?
Not too interested in the specials....but now I want to see his next project.
Kim Bum, you've got a bright future ahead of you! :)

I'm still waiting for the "theaterical sequal" that I'm predicting will become a reality in 2011.

dramafever.com is a really cool and good quality site IF you're living in the US. It's completely legal, since dramafever licensed the dramas directly from Korea. Only thing is, there's advertisement every ten minutes, but for the quality of the video, it's totally worth it. Boys Before Flowers is out to the 19th ep. there. quote from site:
:: We are proud to be the first to legally release this drama online in the US for our audience along with amazing subtitles from With S2 ::

for invites, since I believe otherwise, you have to wait a couple days. I have 15 invites, so the first 15 gets them.

Gosh, that was a long wait...
Huh, tonight...Finally...
And they're coming to Manila. Yeehaw! Can't get enough of them!
And Kim Bum has a really awesome voice. He should sing more in the future :))
Have you all seen his new hair-do? Permed just like Jun-pyo's! LOL!
Keep it up, Javabeans!

i'm not going to comment on the BBF mania, it's kinda over for me...
but KIM BUM... WOW!!! i never would've expect he has this nice singing voice...
for me, it's like he's the next Lim Chang Jung or something, his voice is sooooo nice...
he should've come out with an album already, or why didn't the music director of BBF put him as one of the OST singer earlier...

DEFINITELY NOT ME.....! ^-^ I will roll my eyes yet again....
Am interested to see the guys in separate kdramas or movies though and see how they will fare with other actors other than the BOFs......
Nice song, promising strong voice........

@#9 Mamacat
- Just wondering which version you got? So far, it seems the DVD is not yet officially released in Sg? Also it's incomplete?
- Just wondering as well, if you know whether the current version being aired over Ch U is avail for sale? (Is the version you're holding on the same that's being aired?) I am looking to have this version for the fact that they subbed the lyrics in Mandarin and in English and I enjoy the drama much better knowing at least what I am hearing!
As for those in Melb/Syd - I believe pirated versions are being sold.. so if you do get any copy do take that with a pinch of salt where quality's concerned? o.0
Thanks!
As for sustaining the BOF mania... I'll take anything that comes along. I think I will however stop with the music drama. If they try anything like the TW version.. with Meteor Rain.. I might just cringe.. I prefer keeping good memories.. and savour the lingering flavour.

Wow. KimBum totally blew me away with his vocals. Of course, I've heard it earlier when I was watching the "music video", BBF five years later or whatever you call it but I've never really heard the song with full concentration (was distracted watching the video. When I watch things, I totally zone out. I don't pay attention to the songs.). But just then, I saw what you wrote, praising KimBum and I decided to really hear it.
So I heard it with my eyes closed and only focused on the song. (I think I imagined him singing in a studio... -.-|||)
During the first few seconds, I wasn't so impressed, cos it was sort of in a low key and I really find low keys weird. (I have no idea why.) Then moving on, he really sang with power and feelings and it was really cool and beautiful.
When I went off to search for the translation to the lyrics of the song, the realisation of how well he sang hit me.
Now, I respect KimBum, not just for his acting abilities, but also for his absolutely wonderful vocals. I no longer see him as the cute kid which he is.
He really is a talented actor and singer with great potential.
(Oh, yeah, I'm not really interested in the next chapter of the music video of whatever... but I'm gonna watch it.)
