Not every female version of Meteor Garden stands out.
Not only the female lead, even her best friend is an interesting and beloved character in Meteor Garden. However, not every version of “she porridge” on the screen is special, memorable and noticeable.
Kim So Eun
There is no doubt that Kim So Eun is the name that brings the character “porridge girl” closer to the audience even though she only plays a supporting role. In the drama, she has a complicated relationship with Kim Bum’s character, who is also a member of F4. But at the time of the broadcast, Kim So Eun had many fans, even as popular as the female lead Goo Hye Sun.
Aki Nishihara
In the Japanese version released on television in 2005, the image of the female lead’s best friend was portrayed by actress Aki Nishihara. Like the other versions, Yuki harbors a crush on “potter guy” Soujiro, but does not dare to confess because she thinks she will never have a chance. However, unlike other projects, Japanese “porridge” is not as prominent and memorable.
Duong Thua Lam
Few people know that in the 2001 version of Meteor Garden, the famous singer-actress Duong Thua Lam is the one who plays the female lead’s best friend. Tieu Uu in the film is marked by her vivacious personality, “compensating” for Sam Thai and often standing up for her friend. When the film aired, Duong Thua Lam’s hair styling was criticized, but she confessed that due to the tight budget of the crew, not only the hair, even the character’s clothes were prepared by herself. .
Prim Chanikan
As the youngest actress in the supporting cast of Meteor Garden, Prim Chanikan is even more memorable thanks to her pure and lovely beauty of the character. Even the “porridge girl” Kaning in the film overshadowed the female lead because of her memorable, eye-catching beauty. In real life, Prim is one of the key, expected names of GMMTV. The proof is that before Meteor Garden, she had the opportunity to star in many big films such as The Gifted: Graduation or Blacklist.
