Meteor Garden II (Chinese: 流星花園II; pinyin: Liúxīng Huāyuán II) is a sequel to the hit Taiwanese drama, Meteor Garden. Unlike the first series, the sequel is an original story and is not based on the manga, Boys Over Flowers by Yoko Kamio. It was produced by Angie Chai.[1] The series aired on CTS in 2002[2] for thirty-one episodes.[3]
After Meteor Garden's premiere in 2001, Jerry Yan, Vic Chou, Ken Chu, and Vanness Wu formed the Mandopop group F4,[4] and performed the two theme songs of the sequel.[5] Meteor Garden II starred returning actors Barbie Hsu, Yan, Chou, Chu, and Wu with new addition Michelle Saram.[6]

Production

Meteor Garden II premiered on November 11, 2002.[13] It was immediately met with a negative response from fans, who thought it was "bad" compared to the original manga.[14] Saram's character Ye Sha was a particular bone of contention among audiences.[15] The sequel's ratings were significantly lower than those of Meteor Garden. Due to the audience reaction, Chai prepared two separate endings for the show.[16]
