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.

Being forever Chinese, the drama will also be less violent and more inspirational. Domyouji has pretty much been confirmed as not from the Super Boys. But of course, as CFensi should’ve pounded into you by now, you can’t always trust what you read.
