Before starting, first, I would like you to remember: this is a 2006 drama, so yeah the quality of the video is not the best (tho is still VERY good) and some scenes may sound strange to you but BE OPEN MINDED. You need that to be able to immerse in one of the most beautiful drama adventure of your life. Second, this might not be for everyone. I had a friend that hated it. I had another friend that loved it and re-watched it a tons of times. Even my sister who was somebody who was rough, liked it a lot. This story is a very unique love story. Unique in the sense that you never see it around these days... in dramas. It is innocent, raw and magical. Only by thinking in how deeply they loved each other makes me cry. I don't know how to explain it very well, but the way Yoonsuh loved Hana is magical. These actors were so brilliant, this writer is so brilliant that the love they created in these 10 episodes is surreal. This is a love story, and a chilling one. You will cry throughout the episodes and feel your heart beating fast and have your breath taken away, with small things like: How YoonSuh looks at Hana, how he says her name, how he keeps promising to protect her, and how he tries so hard to contain his feelings for her, and when he cries. You see the blossom of love in an autistic boy who only knew the snow, and how to breathe. He is rough, brute and rude. He didn't have anybody to teach him what was love and that's how he treated Hana at first and even worse anybody who treated Hana bad. She was the world to him. The whole world to him. He only wanted to cherish her and protect her. And thats what the story about. You see, YoonSuh is a very emotional character, the kind of character that you will never forget, and makes you wish that somebody loved you as much as he loved Hana. There are very memorable scenes in this drama and a set of amazing soundtracks, and when you see those scenes or listen to those songs in youtube or tumblr, or whatever, you will remember. As if it was your own story. Your body will remember, the chills, the sadness, the love. Every song of this drama is memorable "His Whistle" will stay in your mind because it is YoonSuh's theme. It is filled with sadness, loneliness, pain, but also hope and love. "What Should I Do?" is very beautiful, and the lyrics are made for Yoonsuh too. It describes how YoonSuh feels about Hana in every single word. Lee Wan sings for the soundtrack and it is a beautiful more happy song than the rest of the OST. I would like to recommend you to re-watch the drama after sometime. Let all your feelings settle down and be calm. Because it is intense and overwhelming. I am rewatching this after 6 years (thats just too long haha). This was my very first Korean drama, and what brought me to the Hallyu Wave. Even though I memorized every scene, watching Lee Wan portraying YoonSuh surprises me everytime. This is where I started my slight obsession for Park Shin Hye, she was my first Korean actress crush, and will still be. Seeing her in Doctors now, makes me think how much she evolved and changed. Lee Wan, is amazing. I hope he keeps acting these days and grabs some big projects. He needs that. He is the brother of the legendary Kim Tae Hee, they need to collaborate in a project, and give his brother some popularity. People need to see him again. (If you found some typo errors, I'm sorry I tried my best :P )
