Moon River is a Taiwanese Drama from 2015. I just finished watching it this week and I gotta say it reminds me of Boys Over Flower. There are some differences between them, like the main girl know kungfu and the F4 is now F3. But the story similarities are hard to miss. The story is about a girl going to a university for rich people and find herself in love with the rich hot shot guy named Mu Liu Bing. The girl comes from a poor martial art family from a little village. She was offered a scholarship to go to the university in the big city, so she went. She isn't really pretty. She wear that lame skirt and jogging jumping suit everywhere. And also wear the famous toes sock. Her face is okay. It's just that hairdo and clothes that make her look lame and ugly. Her name is Ming Xiao Xi.

These are the F3....

This guy here is the main character played by Sam Lin. Liu Bing comes from one of the rich family. He is cold and arrogant. His mother commit suicide when he was little. He promises to get revenge when he gets older. To be honest, I think his plan for vengeance is stupid. His father's plan too. I could come up with a better plan than lose all the money or the girl and couldn't even make a scratch to the evil guy. =/

This guy remind me of Hanazawa Rui in Boys over Flowers, doesn't he? Maybe it's the playing violin and he also fall for the main girl. And sadly his love get rejected. :/  

This guy is also one of the F3.  He love the rich girl who think she is all that because she is rich and pretty. In this shows, I really want to slap her so many times. I hate spoil kid. 

The rich spoil girl, the main antagonist of the story. She of course love Liu Bing and will do anything to get him. But because Liu Bing hate her father, so there is no future for them. Shoo shoo go away. Let the couple below be together already..

This is the main char, Ming Xiao Xi, friends/roommates. The guy is a chicken (I also want to slap). The girl is okay.

These 2 girls are the evil girl minions and listen to her every command.

--------------

Overall this TV series is also a must watch in my book. I like Boys over Flowers and so I like this one too.  I guess I do love romantic comedy after all. hehe. Liu Bing is also hot as long as his hair is not blond. hehe.
