Fun fact: Wishing upon a shooting star is bad luck in Chinese.
The latest rendition of Meteor Garden begins streaming today for two episodes every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. It airs one day before that. I haven’t seen it around on Youtube/Viki but I presume it’ll get picked up eventually. It will start streaming on Netflix with English subtitles here beginning July 13th.
The series stars Shen Yue as the spunky female lead Shan Yue and newcomers Wang Hedi, Guan Hong, Liang Jingkang, and Wu Xize as the bully quartet F4. Dee Hsu, the younger sister of the original Shancai, will be playing the older sister of Daoming Si.

FYI the series has been brought by Netflix and will be available beginning Friday.
This cast’s episode of Happy Camp was hilarious, though not so much because of them. When that guy whose name I can’t recall just now came out posing on his little plastic stool and introduced himself as 美坐 I just about lost it.
