Congratulations, parody contest winners!
by javabeans
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 ]

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.

Congrats everyone!

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 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!

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!

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...

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 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!!!

Omygosh.. I can't stop thinking about a Korean adaptation of Pride and Prejudice now. Reva got me obsessed with the idea of a Korean Pride and Prejudice.
Is there any way, any way at all we could get a producer to remake Pride and Prejudice? Driving me nuts.
