BOYS OVER FLOWERS the movie (2008)

花より男子F

Four years have passed since that emotional marriage proposal at Tsukushi Makino's high-school prom, and Tsukasa Dōmyōji announced his engagement to Tsukushi to the entire world. At an engagement dinner between their families, Dōmyōji's mother, who has been strongly against their relationship before, presents Tsukushi a tiara, which is estimated to be worth roughly 10 billion yen, as a token of their engagement. But that night, the tiara is stolen by somebody! Then, Dōmyōji and Tsukushi travel around the globe to Las Vegas, Hong Kong, and even a deserted island to get the tiara back—the legendary tiara that has been believed to "bring eternal love." In the meantime, where and what are the "F4" fellows, who have just gone separate ways, doing now?

Interesting facts

  • Based on: Boys Over Flowers

Hana yori Dango Final: The Movie is a 2008 Japanese film directed by Yasuharu Ishii and starring Mao Inoue and Jun Matsumoto. It is the last part of the Japanese live-action Boys Over Flowers trilogy, based on the manga series by Yoko Kamio. It is marketed internationally as Boys Over Flowers Final or Boys Over Flowers: The Movie and released in some Asian countries as the latter.

Production

In August 2007, TBS announced that their live-action adaptation of Hana yori Dango would end with a film. Filming was scheduled to take place overseas for about two months from January 2008 onwards. It was also announced that the series' chief director, Yasuharu Ishii, would return to direct the film, and the original manga writer and illustrator Yoko Kamio would help Mikio Satake (the pen name of actor Takayuki Takuma) with the screenwriting.

Mao Inoue and Jun Matsumoto had traveled to Hong Kong from February 11 to 16, 2008, then to Las Vegas on February 19 before finishing on February 29. The cast had traveled 25,000 kilometers (approx. 16,000 miles) between the two locations.

On May 2, 2008, Jun Matsumoto's group, Arashi, sang the film's theme song "One Love", as they did for the series' two television drama adaptations.

Japanese singer Aiko provided the insert song to the movie. Though the insert song was referred to as "Tsukushi's Theme Song" at the time of the announcement, it is officially titled "KissHug".
