Sisters Over Flowers (Korean꽃보다 누나; RRGgotboda Nuna), also known as Noonas Over Flowers,[1] is a South Korean travel-reality show that aired on tvN from 29 November 2013 to 17 January 2014. It featured veteran actresses Youn Yuh-jung, Kim Ja-ok, Kim Hee-ae and Lee Mi-yeon[2][3] going on a 10-day backpacking trip through Turkey and Croatia,[4] accompanied and assisted by the significantly younger Lee Seung-gi. The trip covered the cities of Istanbul, Zagreb, Split, and Dubrovnik.

It is a spin-off of Grandpas Over Flowers, which featured a similar premise but with older male actors. The show's title also follows after its predecessor, which is itself a word play/parody on Boys Over Flowers (花より男子, Hana Yori Dango), a popular Japanese manga about four handsome young men.
