That Winter, The Wind Blows

Song Hye Ko does an admirable job feigning blindness. Jo In Sung looks amazing in fashions that seemed to be lifted right out of American gangster movies based in the 20's and 30's. Besides the fact that he definitely looks the part of an attractive womanize, the man can also act. I spent pretty much all of the drama heavily sympathizing with and rooting for him, even while realizing what he was doing was highly questionable/just plain wrong.
Kim Tae Woo was awesome as Moo Cheol. I definitely felt all sorts of emotions towards him as his story progressed.
I just thought the story was beautifully acted and filmed. I was on my toes for the whole thing, and could not stop watching it until it was all over. It really got me out of my drama slump!

That being said, here's what I thought. The story line was crazy all over the place. Although K-dramas tend to be fairly predictable, I was actually really surprised about many of the events that happened. Not surprised enough to pull a stupid Choi Jin Chul face (omg), but on edge throughout. The romance between the OTP was doled out in satisfying amounts here and there. Just when I'd get to thinking, I need some romance..it'd turn up! The last episode was my favorite, though the very ending was kind of...?!?
I LOVED the friendships between Sun Woo, Young Hoon, as well as, Sun Woo and Chul Min. I thought the actor playing the young Sun Woo was actually pretty awesome, too. On a sort of side note here, I kind of wish we could have seen a part of Min Young's life that didn't revolve around Sun Woo..I mean I know she came over from the US..but doesn't she have ANY friends??
It'd be hard to rewatch this drama because I really think the element of surprise is what grabbed me for this one. All in all, though, I'd rank it in the top 5 for 2013, for sure.
