Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

I was at high school when this TV-series was shown on TV. First I didn't have time and thought it was just another love story which has a happy ending. But after few months because of a very high demand they showed it again so I had a chance to watch and it grabbed my attention from the beginning and I watched it over and over. Last time I was watching it on the internet in original language with English subtitles. Beautiful!!! If they play it again I'll stay watch and enjoy the beauty of the love. Acting is perfect! One of the thing that caught people's attention was music. So awesome! It's no wonder the actors were found to be the best in 2002. If you haven't yet, I suggest you watch it! It's a must!

I thoroughly enjoyed this series, though I won't try to say that it is one of the best series I have seen. Far from it, actually. However, the acting of both Yong-Jun Bae (who played both Jun-Sang Kang and Min-Hyung Lee) and Ji-Woo Choi (playing the part of Yoo-Jin Jung) make the series worth watching, as both can very convincingly convey the emotions that can haunt the human condition. The overall plot of the series is somewhat stereotypical of the genre, a bit thin to be honest. With that said... I hate how this series ended *lol* It's far too... perhaps proper, for me. Emphasis is placed on the 'right' thing to do for someone else, instead of the right thing to do for oneself. I think, though, that that may be a more eastern belief. And there's nothing wrong with that. I just feel that, with matters of the heart, one has to do what is right for his or her own self. I don't know. You might differ on opinions from me, but I liked it and would recommend it. And whether or not I have bad taste... well that's a matter of opinion as well.

Winter Sonata is one of the best Korean dramas I have ever watched. Many will claim that the plot is trite, overused, typical, and predictable--but keeping in mind the fact that this drama came out in 2002 and that it was really what spurred the entire Korean drama craze in Asia, you've got to lend this one some credit. It begins with a cheerful girl named Yu Jin, along with her childhood guy friend Sang Hyuk, who attends Chun-Chuan High School. Sang Hyuk likes Yu Jin, but Yu Jin only thinks of him as a friend/brotherly figure. One day a strange new student arrives named Joon Sang--he's very quiet, aloof, and has this dark/intense look on his face at all times--who came to the high school in search of his biological father. Through a series of coincidences and amusing events, Yu Jin and Joon Sang become attracted to each other. On his way to meet Yu Jin for a date one night, Joon Sang is hit by a truck and he passes away. Ten years later, Yu Jin is engaged to Sang Hyuk; however, she spots someone who looks exactly like Joon Sang, and that's when the plot thickens.I can't say too much without giving away everything, but this is really a very good drama. The scenery is extremely beautiful, and coupled with the sad piercing music, this drama can really bring out bucketfuls of tears. The actors and actresses (especially the leads) are extremely talented and can convey all the grief and pain that they feel inside and engage with the audience on a personal level. This drama is so captivating that you really will not regret watching it. It is my favorite Korean drama and if you give it half a chance, it'll be your favorite too. :)

well, it is! it's roughly translated as 'Winter Sonata' and is probably the best korean drama i have seen, next to 'Endless Love' (which is directed by the same director of Winter Sonata). The scenery with the snow, and forest is just...beautiful. It's basically about two teenagers who meet, and fall in love...and then something happens. And 10 years later, they meet again, but there are a lot of obstacles in order for them to be together. You could really feel the characters' pain at what they're going through, especially the character played by Choi Ji Woo, who plays her part wonderfully. Bae Yong Jun, who plays her love, also does well, especially when he finds out about...not telling cause I don't want to spoil it! But it IS a typical love story, but it's REALLY good, so good that it became a a hit in Asia.soo...what're you waiting for? Go watch it!
