If u are talking about meteor garden 2018 then I don't think there's anything to compare it with boys over flowers...I watched meteor garden once but didnt find any excitement so that I can continue watching this..but I watched every of episodes..specially the lead one can't be compared with goo jun pyo at all and I also don't like the character of xiaoyou.u can say there is no clear happy ending in bof but meteor garden has..but still bof is much better than meteor garden 2018.
