As someone who loved Korean dramas more than Taiwanese dramas, I have to admit that I personally like this version more. For one, they actually cast an actual singer as a lead (not that Jang Geum Seuk wasn’t good since he is and I love everytime when he sings) but I think the biggest thing they made right is that they casted Jiro as the male lead since his voice is really fantastic and not to mention that he is both hilarious and hella charismatic in this role.

Another one would be is that they follow exactly all the things that made the K-version very lovable but added a few more cute & memorable scenes (a lot of new added scenes like the MV filming & etc) that made this version even more enjoyable and unforgettable. I kinda have no expectation watching the drama but I ended up loving it more than the original. This is one of the rare occasions where it is worth to watch both versions as both are very good and entertaining.

For me, the scene they outdid the most would be the MV making scene since that stuff is hilarious! And not to mention the original songs for this remake; 'Half of Me' & 'Can't Stop Loving You' -- this 2 songs simply outshone the songs in the original imo.

The only thing the Taiwanese version lacked would be the role of Jeremy which was played by HongKi in the K-version -- HongKi made Jeremy too iconic that no one can actually fill in the shoes for the character.
