View Full Version : *Gasp* What about F4?!

I can't believe there's no F4 thread already! :eek: Come on, guys...
Anyway for those of you who are wondering what "F4" is...they're simply a great Chinese (or is it Taiwanese?) boy band. I love their voices and their CD "Meteor Rain" is one of my favorite CDs of all time. They make such catchy songs! And *gasp* F4 can actually sing good live...and it's not even lip-singing! They also stared in a TV drama based off the anime "Hana yori dango" (Boys over Flowers) called "Meteor Garden." It was very popular and now has a sequal!
Has anyone heard of them? Or at least the show? Or is this one of the subjects where I'm alone in my knowledge....

Yeah, Zai Zai looks good. But my lover is Vanness. :p

They're pretty famous in the Philippines, Taiwan, China (I think) and I heard they tried to make it in Japan.
Aust...as is Australia?
(They broke up though...now all of the members are solo.)

The F4...oh dear. I should have found this earlier.
I'm actually surprised that somebody else has seen Meteor Garden (I) and Mars. Although their fame as a band waned, those TV series are still my favorites. Their performence in Mars was completly amazing (I love the opening song, and have it on my ipod XD). Metoer Garden was also really good, but I kinda got bored of the second one and stopped watched at around epiosde 5 maybe.
Out of curiosity though, how many people who've seen these are chinese? Cause that's the language it was originally.

Yeah...Meteor Garden 2 drags on. But I have to wait it out to see Vanness and his love interest. *cries*
I'm not Chinese...not even Asian...but I watched all of MG1 on Youtube with subs. xD I like so many Taiwanese dramas...I'm starting to know Mandarin!
Mars is really good too...but I've only seen the first episode.

I wasn't feeling the manga.
But I was definitely into that first episode. I'll watch the rest when I get some time. Currently I'm involved in too many dramas. >.< MG2 (must.bear.with.it.for.Vanness! *grinds teeth together*) Devil Beside You, and Hana-Kimi. After them, KO One and Smile Pasta are on my "Drama List."

It's ok so far. Even though...most of the characters are stupid. But Mike He is cute and his Dad in the show is so funny! It was a big hit so I wanna see what all the hype is about.

You did not like Mars(manga)??? *GASP* How could you not???????
Oh, do you know what the tawanese name for Hana-Kimi is? I've recently heard about the TV series, so I wanted to see it, because it was a great manga.
I also wish you luck in finishing MG2, cause I certainly could not. All of Tsukasa's hard work in MG is completly wasted at the beginning of MG2. Also I'm using their manga names because I have no idea what their english name is, so who is Vannessa? :p

Why don't you just use the Taiwanese names that were used in the series?
-Shan Cai (Tsukushi Makino) played by Barbie Xsu
-Dao Ming Si (Tusukasa DomYoJi) played by Jerry Yan
-Ximen (Sojiro Nishikado) played by Ken Zhu
-Mei-Zhuo(Akira Mimasaka) played by Vanness Wu (Not Vannessa! xD)
-Hua Ze Lei ( Rui Hanazawa) played by Vic Zhou
If you watched MG how could you not know their Mandarin names?
Anyway I'm watching MG2 to see Mei-Zhuo/Akira who is played by the beautiful Vanness Wu.

<3 I must see him and his love interest.
Here's an episode of Hana-Kimi (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOHQJGYBqK8&feature=PlayList&p=B149F6621C96FF19&index=14)
Just search around Youtube for the rest of the episodes. :) All you need to know is the Japanese name for the series.

Wait, I thought Hana-Kimi was Tawainese. Well, if it is, I can just watch it normally, since I understand manderin. I also like to buy Asian TV series that I really like, because watching it on a TV is much better than on a computer :p
Oh, BTW, my ping ying is really bad (if you know what that is).

Hana-Kimi is Taiwanese. But I think they just use the Japanese name.

I don't speak Mandarin at all. I watch with subtitles.

my cousin is in the advertising business and his company had a mini concert promoting the F4 song Ask for More. Guess who he had a picture with? Vic Zhou!!
Who's in my opinion a much better actor than Vanness.
Hey, Hey, Hey now.
You have to admit that back in the Meteor Garden days...they all pretty much sucked. But they've improved with time. I think Vanness hit his stride in Dragon Squad. He gave a credible and intense performance, which surprised everyone. Even me.
Zai Zai's good too. I heard he did great in "Silence" or whatever it's called. I think he's adorable. Though I like him better without the bangs and the tan he was starting to acquire.
(The Conversation from last night)
And to add to what I said...come on...everyone (who's not being biast) knows who the best singer out of F4 is...Vanness! :D

HA! I told you glitter that Vic was the best :D No one can beat his acting in Mars. NO ONE
And for TenshiBu, MG is good, but don't go on to MG II, it was terrible.

I never said Vanness' acting was better. I just said he improved a lot. I have yet to see more of Zai Zai's acting.
Plus...Vanness sings the best out of the group. He puts Zai Zai's voice to shame, and everybody knows it! xD
MG2 is so boring. I'm only watching it to see Vanness. *sniff* Must...endure...

They do all sound good together.
But if you put them in a singing contest against each other Vann's voice would so own the rest. I'm really not trying to be bias. I'm saying this based on comparison of their individual singing skills.

Yes...It would....although I hate to admit it.
