It stars Creator/TuTontawan as Gorya, a girl who works at a flower shop. When she lands a spot at a prestigious school, she's horrified to find out that a clique of bullies called F4 lords over campus.

Their leader Thyme (Creator/BrightVachirawit) is drawn to Gorya, but his bullying repels her. Instead, she gravitates towards Ren (Creator/DewJirawat), [[TokenGoodTeammate the kindest member of F4]]. But maybe Thyme can change for the girl he loves and win her heart... ([[ForegoneConclusion and if you've ever heard of the source material or its many adaptations, you know he will]]).

Creator/WinMetawin (as F4 member Kavin), Creator/NaniHirunkit (as F4 member M.J.), Creator/PrimChanikarn (as Gorya's best friend Kaning), and Creator/FahYongwaree (as Ren's first love/childhood friend Mira) also star.

!!Tropes in ''F4 Thailand: Boys Over Flowers'':

* AbhorrentAdmirer: A non-physical example. Thyme is handsome, but his growing affections towards Gorya are unwelcome because he's a bully.
* AccidentalKiss: Between Thyme and Gorya.
** The first one happens when [[spoiler:Gorya runs to interrupt Thyme and Ren's fighting. She accidentally falls on top of Thyme and their lips touch.]] Some eagle-eyed fans have noticed that Thyme appears to ''giggle'' in response, even though he tries to act upset about the accidental kiss.
** The second one happens when [[spoiler:Gorya is sleeping on Thyme's lap. He leans closer towards her and she does too, making their lips touch.]]
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: In the source material and its many adaptations, the bullying arc was mostly taken lightly and was only included to establish [[PintSizedPowerhouse the female lead being the only brave student to stand up against F4]], specifically its leader. In this version, the story was presented in a darker, more serious, and more realistic tone, showing tons of TearJerker moments from the vulnerable characters.
* AdaptationalLocationChange: The original manga was set in Japan ([[CaptainObvious naturally]]). This version is set in Thailand ([[CaptainObvious naturally]]).
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Thyme is a bully like his original counterpart, but he's a lot kinder and more respectful to his love interest and isn't an [[AttemptedRape attempted rapist]].
* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Thyme likes Gorya, who likes Ren, who likes Mira...
* TheBeautifulElite: F4. Their group name means Flower Four, because the four members are all very handsome, each like a different flower. They're also some of the richest people in school.
* TheBroCode: Somewhat downplayed. Thyme and Gorya develop a closer relationship while Ren is away, and after he returns, he starts to show interest in Gorya despite being aware of his best friend's infatuation with her. To be fair, however, Gorya liked Ren first. If you are familiar with the series' source material, then you would know this trope will have many ups and downs between the two F4 members.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: According to Gawao, Gorya feels the need to be everyone's hero. Gorya yelling out an entire soliloquy on the rooftop about inequality, after walking in on F4 bullying someone, is evidence of this (though her anger is far from unjustified, of course).
* CompositeCharacter: Makiko Endo and Sakurako Sanjo from the manga are composited into one character. She's named Hana in this version. Like Makiko, she is the shy timid girl who becomes the first friend that the Makino equivalent note makes at the her new school after protecting her from F4, which in turn gets herself targeted. [[spoiler:However, like with Sakurako, this is revealed to be an act, as she ultimately betrays her to get revenge against the Domyoji equivalent, Thyme, with whom she is secretly in love.]]
* TheFakeCutie: Kavin is a lovely, sweet-looking PrettyBoy. Kaning remarks that he looks like a prince. But Gorya says that he just ''looks'' innocent, but is a notorious playboy at school. A quick cut to a scene of him leaving a hotel after a threesome with two women proves it.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: F4, duh.
* GirlPosse: Gorya is the bullying target of the school's three mean girls.
* LadykillerInLove: Girls regularly swoon over Thyme, but Gorya, who can't stand him, is the girl who captures his attention.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: TruthInTelevision for Thailand. Thai people are often called by their nicknames.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: When Gawao remarks that having a handsome face doesn't matter if the guy has a bad attitude, Gorya readily agrees. Although Thyme is handsome, Gorya wants nothing to do with him and falls for Ren instead.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Ren is the most decent person in the F4 clique.
