This is undoubtedly one of the best Korean dramas I've seen. Firstly I should mention an incredible poetic power laying in it: the atmosphere of limpid, nostalgic and elegant snowy landscapes, an amazing shooting, wonderful captures of the emotions and really suitable music - all these elements make you want to re-watch the drama many times. Also the story is very well-written: to me Noh Hee Kyung is probably the most talented Korean dramas writers who's really capable of detecting some incredibly subtle threads of a human's soul quite rare in the doramas.

Well, the cast is REALLY amazing. In my opinion, Jo In Sung and Song Hye Kyo are two of the most remarkable Korean actors and here they fulfill their characters absolutely faultlessly. Jo In Sung possessed of an exceptional dramatic talent expresses the emotions in a particular and profoundly personal way, while Song Hye Kyo has an interesting combination of softness, delicacy and really intense and strong temperament. I can't count the times I've seen this drama and I also feel an immense aesthetic pleasure.
