After get to episode 11 i have to say this drama really makes me angry, frustrated and annoyed. You want money…
In addition we have: – Hee Sun, who wants the man she blames for the death of her pregnant sister to be intimate with her, and when she can't get that she tells the rich sister that her new brother is a conman out of pure spite. She's a florist-gangster with a degree in forging identity documents. She has plenty of hobbies: When she doesn't organize safe cracking equipment or hope that the man she holds a grudge against falls in love with her, she beats up her female friends until they agree to become law-abiding citizens.
– Moo Chul, who wants to kill the man blamed for the death of Hee Sun's sister (who he loved), but then they're also bros. Besides that he also runs an illegal entertainment establishment, but instead of managing that he's actually out playing basketball with some kid all the time. [spoiler:] He's also entirely bipolar about wanting or not wanting to harm Oh Soo & Jin Sung.
– The secretary turned mistress turned adoptive mother, who conspires to blind her adopted child so she can care for her all alone (and generally make herself indispensable). But she plays ruthless power games with her for 10-20 years, so it's all forgiven.
– The fiancé, who does nothing but lie & scheme the entire show, and yet is 'the perfect man to lead the corporation'. This guy's so absurd, I thought he must be the secretary's biological son that she put into power.
can someone please tell me the ending? was it similar to the movie?
The ending is ambiguous so you can interpret it as like the movie, or more like the J-drama, or like something entirely different. Bring your own ending.
I really enjoyed watching this. One thing I don't understand is @ep 16 when ML got stabbed, cried & faint but…
Maybe it's so you can Choose Your Own Adventure if both are dead in the end, both are alive in the end, or one is dead and the other is alive. Or whatever else you'd like to fanfic.
I love the part where we're supposed to sympathize with and like a woman who willingly let a young child go blind…
It's up there with the part where the psychopath girl wants the guy who impregnated and 'killed' her sister to also impregnate her, and bursts out into fiery rage when she doesn't get that.
it's my second time rewatching this beautiful drama I still get emotional for itthe only thing I couldn't understand…
Apparently so she could control Oh Young and so that Oh Young would depend on her (making Wang irreplacable). It doesn't make a lot of sense to me though.
I've watched it 3 times now. Loved it! But I still haven't figured out the end. Why were they bringing flowers…
Either you see a fictional future / dream world / heaven / whatever, or they're both alive. Maybe they couldn't decide between the endings of the two previous versions (JP drama & KR movie).
I had so much hope for it in the beginning but then it kinda fell off. Don't get me wrong they did in fact have…
The gambling part could have been deleted entirely and it would have made for a better show. It was like any of those episode 1 openers that have nothing to do with what happens throughout the drama.
I'd wager 90% of the characters could be described as 'not consistent'.
I have just watched 2 episodes and not yet dropping this, but anyone else had an issue with Jo In Sung's acting?…
"The first episodes are terrible" and "the last episodes are terrible" are important mainstays of dramas. This one dips its feet on both ends of that pool.
I avoided this drama because I was under the mistaken impression that one of the leads died. Now reading through…
[spoilers for other work] In https://kisskh.at/683-love-me-not , I suppose both die. In this one – who knows. It's "choose your own interpretation" stuff.
I can't believe Noh Hee Kyung wrote It's Okay, That's Love just one year later. That one has some of the most realistic characters seen in dramaland, while That Winter, The Wind Blows has the least realistic and least consistent ones. The only similarity (besides the ML actor) is the comma in the middle of the name...
The ending of TWTWB feels like a full-blown writer's guild strike.
The (allegedly 11 minutes longer) extended edition seems to only be available in Mandarin. A pity, as I thought it was a tad nicer watching the movie in Cantonese.
The very early scene with the toad and peacock that was even teased in Part One and is not usually part of Part Two in my opinion helps establish the logic of Zixia's character and also helps another scene further in make more sense.
I would also say that a repeat viewing greatly helped me keep track of who is who.
(Ending spoilers!!) so what happens with the main couple?, etc
Two things I'm confused by in this rather bad movie: The main leads make it through the fight at the wedding otherwise unscathed: Joker does not go on to become Wukong, and Zixia survives with him. What happens to them then? Are they yet ANOTHER incarnation of the two, or do they get memory-wiped and become the two coupled at the end of Part Two?
And who were they anyway? Were they the two from the end of Part Two? If so, how does that Zixia know about the future and how does she have pandora's box? Or was it the two from the start of Part Two, namely the 'real' Joker when he first meets Zixia, and if so, why were they a fresh couple? It's like they combined the end-of-P2 Joker with the start-of-P2 Zixia for P3?

2. None are two-sided
3. The classic "can't live without each other", I suppose
4. Uhhh... perhaps not? Hard to say.
