If you’re waiting for the Pinoy Boys Over Flowers remake for 2018 then we’re sorry to report that that won’t happen anymore as plans have been cancelled due to several reasons.
Here’s a quote from a Meteor Garden fanpage on Facebook regarding the cancellation of Boys Over Flowers here in the Philippines:
UPDATE: PHILIPPINES’ REMAKE OF BOYS OVER FLOWERS THIS 2018 IS ALREADY CANCELLED
Few days after the Press Conference of Meteor Garden 2018, it was in the news that there will be a remake of the Boys Over Flowers Korea.
However, it was already cancelled due to the following reasons:
🌸 Hana Yori Dango manga ( the original source of the story ) can only be remade every 3 years . So no two adaptations can be shown at the same time.
🌸 The station bought the rights from KBS but the rights for Boys Over Flowers Adaptation must come from author Yoko Kamio and Sheshua Publishing House. Therefore, they must pay 2 rights just to produce a new adaptation.
🌸 Meteor Garden 2001 and Meteor Garden 2018 have the same producers . They even went to Japan to ask permission from Yoko Kamio.
🌸 If they really want to produce BOF adaptation now, they must pay for copyright this year and must pay again after 3 years for the copyright.
🌸 Any unofficial adaptation will result to copyright infringement case
* There guys, so let’s just wait for Meteor Garden 2018 * 😊
There you go. It gets technical and costly to make a remake and the local producers aren’t willing to go through all that. Remember they did the same thing for Zaido, which was an adaptation of Shaider.
