Congratulations, parody contest winners!
Thanks to everyone who entered the Boys Before Flowers parody contest! We had a bunch of fantastic entries.
It was super difficult deciding who won, but Sevenses, saharial, and I have reached a consensus: We have selected one First Prize (owner of a brand-new OST and drama poster), one Second Prize (winner of the OST), and a whole slew of Honorable Mentions. I’ll be emailing winners shortly.
And first place goes to…
FIRST PLACE WINNER
Angela, (Untitled)
This one has no title, but a great ambiance. Shinhwa High School: Is it an elite swanky school, or hell?
SECOND PLACE WINNER
Sparkling0Cider, “Any Other World”
The editor’s description goes: “The protagonist wishes for a different life and when he finally gets it, he wants to go back to his old life and learns many lessons along the way.” We say: wonderful use of clips to totally reconstruct a different story! (And great songs.) This is a movie I’d totally want to see.
HONORABLE MENTIONS
Steff, “Twilight”
There were several Twilight entries, all of which were well done. I thought this captured the tone of the original trailer remarkably well.
Reva, “FATE”
Here’s another example of a great use of clips to fashion a new (tragic) storyline.
summerxsummer00, “Obsession Before Flowers”
It’s evil Ji-hoo!
Steff, “A Walk to Remember”
I was surprised at how well BBF fit into the trailer for A Walk To Remember, but you know, it really works.
Athene, “Redemption”
There’s something about BBF that works really well when taken dark, doesn’t it? Too bad the drama’s PD doesn’t see it…
jeune daisy, “Sexy, Naughty, Bitchy”
Fabulous use of song, and YES those skirts are a little… shall we say, inappropriate?
missmanderley, “Twilight”
As I mentioned above, the Twilight parodies were all well-made. I LOVE that we got multiple versions! Watch: [ Youtube ]
jeune daisy, “Twilight”
Intriguing to see how the same scenes can be cut in different ways for differing impact, isn’t it?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUBMISSIONS!
If you sent in a video and it isn’t listed below, it’s probably because you didn’t send a youtube link — if you’d liked to be added here, just leave a comment with the link and I’ll update the list.
(For instance, there was a cute Powerpuff Girls entry, and a “Second Prince” video that turned Yi-jung and Jun-pyo into brothers, for which I don’t have streaming links. Please send!)
Thanks everyone!
dunlop, “Rent” (See the original Rent trailer here.) [ Youtube ]
dunlop, “Her Best Moves” parody [ Youtube ]
Elaine, “Power Hana’s” (aka Mighty Morphin Power Hanas?) [ Youtube ]
jeune daisy, “Arirang” [ Youtube ]
jeune daisy, “Dschinghis Khan.” Great use of song depicting our “match made in paradise”! [ Youtube ]
jeune daisy, “ShangHaiTan” [ Youtube ]
Jo, “DieJerkDie,” a giggle-inducing look at the Yi-jung and Ga-eul relationship. [ Youtube ]
Kim Tran, The characters “sing” along to FT Island’s “Magic” [ Youtube ]
missmanderley, “High School Musical 3″ [ Youtube ]
Reva, “Pride and Prejudice.” Jun-pyo as Darcy, who can refuse? [ Youtube ]
Sandy Chang, “It Started With a Kiss” [ Youtube ]
Sparkling0Cider, “Bewitched Over Flowers.” Ji-hoo reminisces about his first love while playing the piano. (I was happy we got at least one video playing with the Ji-hoo/Jun-pyo pairing!) [ Youtube ]
veiledveritas, “Unrequited.” This one is for all the Rui fans out there! Poor Ji-hoo’s left with his unrequited love. [ Youtube ]
vi, “Flowers Over Boys,” an alternate ending. [ Veoh ]

I just want to say i was really impressed with the entries and enjoyed every second of them – great to see so many imaginative responses!!
I know, right? They were really, really good, and a few of them had me howling out loud in laughter.
Oh my god. I won.
Thank you so much!!! Honestly, I didn’t think I stood a chance. All the entires I saw on youtube were just amazing!
Congrats everyone that entered. It’s a lot harder than it looks, isn’t it?! ^_^
Wow! All the entries blew me away. That was fantastic and supremely enjoyable. Thank you guys for submitting and spending your time on this! And thank you Javabeans for holding the competition so that we can all have a few laughs!
Congratulations to the winners.
summerxsummer00 really impressed me all of them were good!!
I suck at these things so I didnt ven bother
Haha! These are amazing. Watching the ‘Twilight’ and ‘A Walk to Remember’ trailers was like a surreal experience, especially hearing Mandy Moore’s voice coming out of Jandi’s mouth…I still can’t quite comprehend it, lol!
BBF fans are so talented.
Agreed with Saharial and javabeans about how great they were – thank you so much for taking the time to make these!
yeah I was really impressed of all the videos and they really make me laugh or make me feel scared . The music is well used..PD should just used all the fans to make the background sound for the drama
to all the contestants!!! you are really good
and thanx for javabeans, sevenses, and saharial for holding this kind of contest. you should do that more often…will u do that for the next twelves episodes of the drama?
omg WOW. I am so impressed by all of these!! It must have been really hard to choose a winner!
i am so curious about those parodies but the i can’t see the links.. is there any one has same problem with me??
Wow these are all amazing. Congratulations to Angela for winning. The atmosphere and intensity was really well created. I like how it zoomed into the words like despair, jealousy etc and then the clips were shown.
And also congrats to Sparkling0Cider, probably my favourite one!
The music choice was BRILLIANT. It worked so well to help tell the story and the scenes were soo well picked. The part where JP opens his eyes in hospital was great and I especially loved the 2nd half. 1:22-1:25 really just set the mood of how his life’s changed. And then the introduction of JD was so good.
Your version is so convincing it even made me forget the real story of BOF for a while and forget the real context of those scenes!
Few other favs:
Steff: Really liked how the scenes were picked to correspond with the original Twilight trailer, like the shot of New Caledonia looked a lot like the dark forests in Forks! And then the big fight at the end.
Athene: Reminds me of the Requiem parody and just as good, love the dramatic music
summerxsummer00: oo good choice using that particular music of JJ Lin’s and i love the idea.
I loved Sparkling0Cider’s “Any Other World.” And jeune daisy’s “Sexy, Naughty, Bitchy” made me laugh so hard. (I still can’t believe that song even exists and is by THAILAND’s pop star!). And yeah, the skirts were always a little too short in BBF. Good point.
Good job everyone. I don’t think I can make even a 5 sec video like that.
It’s really impressive that background music can change the experience of the drama so much. All entries posted here are awesome =)
P.S. The last bit of the first parody comes from Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana.
Sparkling0Cider, “Any Other World”…
MY FAVORITE!! wonderful!
OMG!!! Kal ho naa ho soundtrack in one of the vids!!!
*am dying*
hmmm. i think everyone loved the any other world video. me too. just in awe. the songs were great. i thought our first prize wasnt that good, in trying to reconstuct something else. maybe the appreciation for the first prize should be viewed in another angle. but its okay. since both of them won the prize.
congrats. umedaeto.!
(i know its not how you spell it, but its acc to how i pronouce it.)
*applause*
wow, seriously, you all are so talented!! i love how editing and rearranging a few scenes and putting it to music (wayyyy better than PARADIIIISSEEEE) can change the feel/tone of the story.. or even make a whole new one… Man, some of these “trailers” make me want to watch a non-existant movie!
Those are impressive! Wow, great job everyone!
amazing, im supposed to go to sleep, but i was goin to watch the first one
ended up watching them all
u guys got talent! =)
congrats to all
omg those were AMAZING!!!! =D CONGRATS TO ANGELA AND SPARKLING0CIDER!!! truly well deserved!!! @kw02: I KNOWWWW!!! i was pretty excited about that, too =P
Congratulations, Angela and Sparkling0Cider!! And the other’s vid. producer! I sent some of my vid. as well. It was my first time learn how to use movie editing program. Thanks for this contest, I am glued to the computer screen and learn how to make a vid. now, ha ha!! I will be an expert soon…
Wow!!! All of these parodies are excellent!!! I’m completely blown away by the creativeness of those who made them. My favorites are…..
* dunlop’s “Rent” b/c it has all the cast….seriously, Woo Bin barely exists in BOF and he’s ignored in these parodies too….where’s the love for Woo Bin, people???? LOL!
* reva’s “Pride & Prejudice” b/c it’s my favorite book of all time!!!! Jane Austen rocks!!!
* elaine’s “Power Hanas” is my absolute favorite b/c I used to watched Power Rangers after school….lol….Seriously, JP —> Hana sexy??? Woo Bin —> Hana Gansta??? Kim Bum —> Hana Awesome??? JK —> Hana POW???….”dies from laughter*….reminds me a lot of BOF where things don’t really make sense and so ridiculous sometimes but we all love it!
Thanks to those who created these parodies!!! You guys rock!!!
jeune daisy, “Sexy, Naughty, Bitchy” is my fav. I actually LOL at the part “Unlike all of my guys I them TALL with MONEY”. Damn true !!!
Fantastic jobs, guys !!
wow! these are pretty good. i love the parody for a walk to remember! stood out for me the most.
To Reva (FATE video) – I loved your video especially the song from that tragic Bollywood movie(Kal Ho Na Ho)
i love all but my fav is the second place
I love all the vids
but my fave is Obsession before Flower
I’m Jihoo fans! And I love if he acts as stubborn as that
hahaha
nice jobs!
love the music also ^^
I made the powerpuff girls video. I tried to put it on youtube, but my internet connection isn’t good enough. I wish you all. All i have is the megaupload link. Sorry!
They were all great! But I like the second place winner best! Kudos to all!
OMG!!
The videos are great. Congrats to the winner. The Video was very suspensefull, you would think it was a horror flick instead of the cute love comedy that it is. Or atleast that I find it to be.
By the way & this is totally out of the loop. Does anyone out there know how to post a letter to South Korea. I’m to send a letter to a person I know, but have NO IDEA how to post all of the inforamtion he gave me.
HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Watching the parodies has surprised me. There are so many talented people out there. I started the first one and do not want to stop watching the rest. Good work fans.
They were all so well done. Congratulations to the winners. But I am absolutely in love without a doubt, “Any Other World”!
Sparkling0Cider: pray do tell, what is the title and name of the artist in your parody????
I enjoyed every one of them. well done!
I must say sparkling0cider’s was amazing.
and i HOWLED at the power rangers one.
applause for all of you, Im so not that talented.
I am introducing some of them to K Fansites.^^
I gotta say, the second place winner and “Fate” was my favorite. I think it was really well done!! Really nice music on the “Any other day” one.
Are you gonna have another one of these contests any time soon??
And congrats to everyone else that submitted!
Fate was the best in my opinion.
I seriously found myself tearing up.
The talent and creativity, in all these parodies, are amazing. Thank you to everyone for sharing and to Dramabean, sevenses and saharial for holding this contest.
It was wonderful fun watching all the parodies. And, I’d like to also thank jeune daisy for the “Shanghai Tan” version. It hadn’t occurred to me that the lyrics of the song is so descriptive of JD’s feelings and dilemma. JD is feeling happiness and dread at the same time.
First Place:
The bg music complemented very well with the trailer.
And the scene that makes it seems like Goo Joon Pyo was going to rape her..like OMG!
Haha. GOOD JOB!
Second Place:
LOVED IT!!! I totally love how to turned the actual story around and made it a totally different story.
You were very creative with the scenes you used to describe is life as a lower class person. *hehehe…the scene in the nam-san cable … that was hilarious to me…but you used it well!
GREAT JOB!
Twilight:
OMG! This would totally be a HOT vampire movie! Hahaha.
Imagine Goo Joon Pyo as a vampire. *HOTNESS!
Fate:
It’s a typical Korean drama with the cancer scenes and stuff…but it’s a cliché love story that just keeps on hooking us. ^^
Obsession Before Flowers:
WOW~ this one really caught me off guard. Hahahha. Ji Hoo has an obsession for….not Geum Jandi but for Goo Joon Pyo? Hahaha. But then again…who doesn’t love him? LOL
Nice work!
A Walk to Remember:
WOW…how do people get so creative? I would’ve never even thought of ‘A Walk to Remember’ when watching BBF. Hehe…it really goes though.
Love the part when the girls come to Jandi and says, “Nice sweater” and she says “Thanks!”
LOL the facial she had in that scene was hilarious.
Redemption:
BBF really does work well with a dark story line. Maybe they should have a movie of BBF with a dark story. ^^
Sexy, Naughty, Bitchy:
This is different from the rest.
It’s funny how it says that she’s intimidating but only to people who don’t have the type of ride that’ll make her want to hop in (the scene used for this was funny)
Twilight:
LMAO! @ Goo Joon Pyo saying that he’s 17.
Short but it was good!
@37 Auntie Mame
After I made Shang Hai Tan version, I found out that someone may don’t understand it, that why I tried to put eng sub on the rest of vid. that I made.
Anyway, Shang Hai Tan used to be very popular because it was an ost of The Bund, a drama about Shang Hai’s God Fathers, and I think BOF’s boys…dress and act like them. I am multilanguage ( but no good at any language) so I tried to made and use the universal song. Thanks for this contest ,javabeans. I enjoy it so much.
Congrads to the winner, Angela. But the one that I enjoyed the most must be 2nd place, Sparkling0Cidar. Ingenious usage of the different clips to create a totally different point of view. Best Wishes in all you do.
Holy expletive, you people are freaking creative! Makes me want to replace the current BOF staff asap…
Wow. Impressive.
The ones I liked best were “Any Other World” and Steff’s “Twilight” parody. I wish I was this creative.
Sevenses, saharial, and javabeans: you guys must’ve had fun, haha.
LOL, “Sexy, Naughty, Bitchy” is just so hilarious!!!
wow, great parodies everyone! I especially loved Sparkling0Cider, “Any Other World” and A walk to remember! that was one of my favorite movies, and it works really well with BBF. great job!
WHOAAAWWW I’m totally blown away!! I loved the any other world entry a lot, made me wonder what a drama like that could be like! I looooved evil Ji-hoo as well that is so so him hahaha. The trailer mixes (haha) were awesome!! Amazing how it fit into twilight and a walk to remember! MAD PROPZ TO EVERYONE
Wow. That first place vid probably took forever–must have been a pain finding the right dialog. It’s one thing to edit with clips but editing with sound is a nightmare, especially when you have to deal with music. “Fate” was amazing. I loved all the entries. Wish I would have had time to enter.
wow! they’re all great but of course i have my faves!
your second place is WOW! awesome job!
and since A WALK TO REMEMBER is my all-time fave movie…props to the person who made that one!
sparkling0cider=amazing.
OMG THESE ENTRIES ARE AMAZING, I WANT TO BURN OUT A CD AND KEEP ALL OF THEM O0, btw i like the 2nd one best =] totally flip story ^^
Omigosh, all these entries are so great.
Ahh, I want to make lovely video parodies too! I wish I wasn’t so technologically challenged. *shake fists*
I loved loved the “Sexy, Naughty, Bitchy,” one by jeune daisy. This one got me laughing for a good while. It’s funny because it’s so fitting for Jandi. XD There I said it.
omg…all very talented……amazing…
Amazing…I loved them all. Kuddos to you guys for picking a winner. If it was me I’ll be stumped. I watched everyone of the parodies and wow! we have some talented viewers out there.
I loved so hard over the short skirt ie Sexy Jandi parody, but I think I liked the dark parodies more.
You are right something about a dark and dangrous BOF seems to work well.
Maybe the next version of Hana Yori Dango should be a gothic version.
Any takers?
The Any Other World one was serious one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen in my life. And I’m not just saying that because I’m a fan of overusing hyperbole. It was awesome. So was the Fate on. But, if Fate were a movie, I would wait until one of my friends got it on Netflix and borrow it from them. Whereas, Any Other World, I would go on Fandango and preorder opening night tickets. So yeah, good showing…
Oh my word–these are all so good!
You know, I almost always defer to you, Javabeans.
But this time–I dunno…. #2 did such a good job in re-interpreting things. I think #2 deserved to win! Man… Mika! How can you go wrong w/ him!?
Wow… I’m still in disbelief about winning… Thanks for all the nice comments and great job to all the vidders!!
@ Civilgal: The songs are “Any Other World” and “Happy Ending” – both by a British singer named Mika. His songs are usually upbeat and happy; I just happened to choose two of his slower songs for the video haha.
Wow, agreeing w/everyone. These are amazing! I loved that in many, they could not resist the Junpyo shower scene ( & also my favorite =p). Much kudos to Sparkling0Cider. I too want to see that movie!
Congrats everyone!
summerxsummer00, “Obsession Before Flowers”
this is good…and funny…hehehe…except for the “a secret OBESSION” part…tsk tsk..edit edit..
congratulations!!
it was fun. got me back into editing. ^^
Although the contest is already done, I still want to share this w/ you guys. Enjoy!

WOW!!!!!!! Congrats to everyone!!! they were GREAT!
and i agree with Civilgal, Mika has a new fan in me too!
Well done!
Congrats everyone! 
They’re all entertaining.
Reva! Namaste! Excellent use of music from Kal Ho Na Ho (the story line even fits the movie. Shah Rukh Khan FTW. Nice to see a hindi song in the mix!)
wow! I love fate and walk to remember the most!!

vWoo woo, it is great!!!
OMG, I enjoyed these so much! Congrats and thanks to everyone for these parodies! <3
Congrats to the Winners! Everyone did great! I was blown away by all of the entries, i knew i wouldnt win…lol
My favorite was probably “Fate”
Thanks for the Honorable mention though. It was a lot of fun making the parody!!
I was going to make another to the song “Superman” by Norazo. But i just couldnt find the time.
I guess i’ll have to fork over my own money for the ost now…haha
I absolutely LOVED the second place winner’s entry: Any Other World….
I’d definitely want to see it, if it was ever a movie! As for the first place, I’m sorry, but I didn’t really get it….
Thank you for the videos everyone! You have such talent!
I loved the trailer parodies, they were VERY entertaining! Loved them!!
i LOVE the redemption trailer…bof suddenly felt like its an action drama…
i couldn’t wait to get home and watch all the videos since my work blocks videos *shakes fist!!!*
and all i can say is wow… so amazing. i only wish i had the creativity and editing skills to even come up with these ideas.
the funny ones were great – they made me laugh so hard….
but i definitely have to say the ‘dark’ ones were the ones that really intrigued me… and has me wishing they were actual movies…
all in all, awesome job everyone
i really enjoyed them all!! thanks!
A big fan of the second place winner “Any Other World.” Amazing. I would love that storyline. ^_^
hey! thanx for the honorable mention
it was fun !!
and congrats to the winners
Wow, some of these are even better than the regular BBF trailers.
I’m not even gonna lie. There were several of them that I teared up over. Awesome work by everyone.
These are all really good. I liked Fate the best, but I don’t think anyone can beat the original Requiem that was posted a while back.
I laughed the most in Sexy Naughty Bitchy especially at the part ‘I like my guys tall with money’ and Jun Pyo appeared!!! Bwahahahha!!!! ^_^ And she likes her nights to end a bit nasty… Oh man, that was so hilarious… Way to point it out…
I loved the 2nd video too about poor Jun Pyo, I never thought anybody would make something like that, it was awesomely put together!
Steff’s video’s were fab too, everybody did an amazing job at this!
wow… u guys are talented!!!
Loved the “Any other World” and Steff’s “Twilight” videos. Sooo cleverly done! Awesome!
I super love Sexy Naughty Bitchy !! I’m not really into sad movie so I go for the funny one. I love the part that she’d pick the guys who don’t know that she rebels the idea of monogamy, and the scence was so well selected, fits just right. And yeah, like some of you, I likethe part that she likes her shorts are shorty, unlike her guys that she likes them all tall with money and the picture of all three guys came up, end with JP’s…he’s tall with money… ha ha!!
For the dark parody I love our first place winner (no parody’s title, huh?) and … look like our winner loves Ranma 1/2…
the Twilight parody was excellent! Def appreciate the hard work that went into all of these for our entertainment. Thank you!
loved the 2nd place one!! would defo watch it too…
Wow, these were excellent!! I’m amazed at how many other stories you guys were able to use in the parody (most notably the “A Walk to Remember” one). I bet Dramabeans wishes she had more prizes to give out.
LOL! Power Hana’s is my favorite, hands down.
Jeez, they were all amazing and very well thought of. Nice imagination these people has.
wooahHhh…
all the entries are great!..
I enjoyed it..
esp. A walk to remember..
hahaha!.. nice one…
I love you, Javabeans! You really stimulated some really creative juices to flow!
i love STEFF’s videos and the second placer.. =) gosh! wonderful vids specially the twilight version. brilliant minds.
Now, I have time to come back and watch them all.
I must say I love HanaPower too ( still love Sexy Jan Di the best) Seriously, that girl who made Sexy Naughty Bitchy (jeune daisy, ‘Daisy’, must be a girl, right?), is very good at picking songs. Arirang, Shiang Hai Tan,Dschinghis Khan, and my fav. Sexy Naughty Bitchy : )
Though I love Angela’s work (her Coffee Prince vid “Breath” is one of my all time favorites, unfortunately, the links have been removed) my personal contest winners are
1. Any other world (when will it hit the cinemas?
))
2. Fate
I also like Rent quite a lot. To all participants “You have worked hard!”.
Dramabeans, please hold another contest should a suitable occasion arise.
I loved all of these vids, they really made my day a tad bit happier. ;D
Congratulations to everyone, there are a lot of talented and creative individuals out there. I’m glad dramabeans decided to have this contest. Enjoyed every single one of the entries.
Kudos~!
wow..i am really impressed by all the parodies! is amazing!!! love love , “Any Other World” by Sparkling0Cider and i cant stop laughing for the summerxsummer00, “Obsession Before Flowers” (evil Ji-hoo) & jeune daisy, “Sexy, Naughty, Bitchy”. bwhaaaaaaaaaaaaa
i’m SUCH a fan of Reva’s “FATE”…i don’t know if you guys were aware but the background score is from at the movie ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’– realizing that just about made my day!!!
I like the “ANY OTHER WORLD the most.. (no offense meant for the first placer).. I think that the plot of the story is original and at the same time very crafty,
the use of the clips and at the same time the backgroud music is PERFECT! Congrats to sparkling0cider and to all the winners!
Hey javabeans I think this contest is great to other dramas as well. I enjoyed all of them!
More power!!!
~HUGS AND KISSES~
