Rui and the other members of F4 try and help Makino meet Domyoji again by going to New York for the christmas holidays. Though F4 and Makino meet Domyoji again, he has become a completely different person, and so they leave for Japan.
Some time later, Domyoji's mother annouces that they will be returning to Japan. There, they hold a giant super-rich and classy birthday party for Domyoji and annouce something very important. Domyoji, like in the first season, is engaged to a rich girl and heir. The only difference is that they are to be wed soon. What will Makino do?
On the side, Rui begins to fall in love with Makino... will this become a love... square?
Kamio Yoko's romance manga series Hana Yori Dango, a.k.a. Boys Over Flowers, has made it to screens in various incarnations since the mid-90s, most notably as a long-running anime series and as the immensely popular Taiwanese drama Meteor Garden. In 2005, TBS adapted the comic for television once more, and hit ratings gold. Produced by Setoguchi Katsuaki (Good Luck!!), the series featured a fresh young cast led by Arashi's Matsumoto Jun and rising star Inoue Mao. Inoue, who plays the drama's spunky heroine, won the Best Actress Award at the 47th Television Drama Academy Awards for her performance, while Matsumoto picked up the Best Supporting Actor Award. Hana Yori Dango was so popular, the cast returned for a highly anticipated sequel which began broadcast in January 2007.
The tough, hardworking Makino Tsukushi (Inoue Mao) attends an exclusive school. She finds her shallow, privileged classmates unbearable, especially the notorious F4. Rich, handsome, and arrogant, Domyoji Tsukasa (Matsumoto Jun), Hanazawa Rui (Oguri Shun, The Neighbor No. 13), Mimasaka Akira (Abe Tsuyoshi, Rough), and Nishikado Sojiro (Matsuda Shota, A Cheerful Gang Turns the Earth) are the kings of the school and no one, not even the teachers, dare challenge them. No one, that is, except Tsukushi. Angry at their rudeness, Tsukushi tells off the members of F4, bringing a world of trouble upon herself. The proud and persistent Tsukasa falls hard for the feisty Tsukushi, but she shares a connection with the quiet, sensitive, violin-playing Rui. Caught between the two friends, who will Tsukushi choose?
