A Good Day for the Wind to Blow (2010)

This drama was really really tiring. if you have watched it then most likely 80% of the other korean dramas are the same as this. The same story over and over with various drama in it that makes you roll your eyes. when i started it i had no idea that it was 173 episodes. I was conned however because of Kim So eun who i would like to see grow as an actress, i withstood the poor plot devices that have been used for 1000000th time. the acting though was just too mediocre they all had the same style, i felt like i was watching uninteresting actors with the exception of two or three who caught my attention. the music was okayish, however i think the drama was way too draggy, i would not watch it again. the only reason why i stayed to it was because after a while i had nothing else to watch so when the episodes piled up i had something to keep me busy. I would have probably dropped the drama after then 50th episode.

This started out so fun but the prolonged misery and endless lies just dragged on too long.
Kwon Oh Bok character started out so fun and then just became the family's kicked dog and the kid had like I swear 12 crying jag outbursts one too many. I don't mind family dramas I don't mind the 100 episode ones if the story carries but this series let me down in the fact if lost all humor to it and just wasted so much time on lies and cups of coffee to discuss the lies. I just really lost interest in what happened to them all but stuck through it. By the time the end came I was like thank God that's over which is a shame cause I had so wanted to enjoy this one. Even the main couples romance never really had any spark to it once they got together it just fizzled before it began. The music did not stand out in any way and there aren't any ep's I loved enough with a cuteness factor to ever really watch again. I feel this is a harsh review but for 170 plus episodes it was just overly bland.

A special show for my 12 year old self

This show was a bit more meaningful to me than maybe the causal viewer simply because it introduced me to KDramas. 2010 was a world away from the reliable world in which we know today in which Korean entertainment is easily accessible. I’m thankful for my standard non cable American tv having a Korean broadcast which only came on A few hours a day in which they premiered this show along with ‘You Are My Destiny’ starring Yoona.
The show was so complex and introduced me to everything I now know about Korean society. It was a good impression and I certainly was able to find a new love for ‘daytime tv’, I was able to find an alternative to the dry and boring American soap opera and the typical kdrama attracts all demographics which is innovative indeed.

I am still a fan of Kim SoEun & JiHan(YiHan) to this day
and found their storyline so fascinating and inspirational. No matter how many amazing kdramas I watch, A Good Day For The Wind To Blow (Happiness In The Wind as they premiered as back then) still holds the most special place in my heart. I rewatch every few years to get that dose of nostalgia. I completely recommend this old timer to any true kdrama enthusiast.
