The Story

 

A gambler and conman pretends to be the long-lost brother of a rich heiress in order to get the money to repay his gambling debt.  But his plans begin to falter when he finds himself falling in love with the innocent young lady who has lived a lonely and frustrating life.  At some point along the way, he finds that he is more concerned about protecting her than paying back the dangerous loan sharks threatening his life.  And when he learns that she is facing a life or death health crisis, he vows to save her at all costs.  But will she ever be able to trust him again, once she finds out that their whole relationship has been based on lies?

Should I Watch

 

That Winter, the Wind Blows - Unspoiled Review

“That Winter, the Wind Blows” is a classic melodrama about love, grief and betrayal.  This drama is not as depressing or heavy-handed as some of the other dramas in this genre.  It also branches out with several interesting side-plots rather than only being about the love story.  But there is still plenty of angst and forbidden love.  The acting and lead chemistry is excellent and the cinematography is beautiful.  If you enjoy a drama that takes you through a series of emotional ups and downs without totally ripping your heart to pieces, this one fits the bill.   I give “That Winter, the Wind Blows” an 8 out of 10 ramen.
