Having revealed the Korean F4 last Friday, Group 8 has announced that Makino in the Korean Hana Yori Dango will go to actress Goo Hye Sun.

Goo Hye Sun will be the main female character in KBS2TV drama, “Boys over Flowers” (name for the drama) which will be shown in December. This will be Goo Hye Sun’s third drama in 2008 following SBS “King and I” and KBS “Strongest Chil-Woo” where she played the leading female role.

Goo Hye Sun plays Yeonoo that is the daughter of a Dry Cleaner owner, who is a swimmer at her school when her school doesn’t even have a swimming team. Near the dry cleaners, she was delivering or picking up clothes when she meets [runs into] the F4 leader and then whole series starts as she deals with certain episodes and events as she becomes Cinderella.

Director Jeon Ki-sang explains that he chose Goo Hye Sun because she fits Tsukushi’s image well, and acknowledges that the public had tossed her name around a lot as a prospective Makino when the drama was first announced. She was in fact one of the front-runners in polls.

With the female lead now decided, do you think she’s the right person?

woa. well maybe with a hairstyle change and less makeup, she could pull it off...the thing im most worried about is her "toughness" though, some korean actresses act too dainty when being "tough" =_=!!

i just cant wait to see the show =D I loved the japanese one so i hope this wont dissapoint me

Ugh! She's kind of old for the role, but that's fine.. Barbie Xu was 25 when she did the Meteor Garden.

She isn't uglyyy.

I though it was Yoon Eun Hye...i was kinda expecting for her.

She's very sweet & pretty. But I'm not sure if she can act & look 'tough' enough...
