February 13, the very first episode of the SBS drama "That Winter, The Wind Blows" was broadcasted. Even before the first episode, the drama drew attention for casting top stars like Jo In Sung and Song Hye Kyo. The expectations were high and SBS did not disappoint.

Regarding the remake of the story, the director of the production department of SBS stated, "Even though we haven't been receiving the best viewing rates for the past episodes, we absolutely idolize writer No Hee Kyung."

A lot of people believed that the popularity of the drama was the result of the high profile actors. Others even said that the drama is not directed viewers of all ages and that the story is not as good as the original.

Currently, a total of eleven episodes of "That Winter, The Wind Blows" have aired. Although many people expected a viewing rate of over 20%, it appears as though it will be a very difficult goal to achieve. Since the KBS drama "IRIS 2" is created for viewers of all ages, it will definitely receive high viewing rates. There is also, "Level 7 Civil Servant" which is another popular drama of the season.

In the beginning, the actors in "That Winter, The Wind Blows" played a huge role in the impressive viewing rates but as the story began to fully develop, the viewing rate began to decline.

Unlike other dramas, the production crew of the "That Winter, The Wind Blows" is working under a completely different system from the production crews of other dramas. They are working under calm conditions without feeling the need for more time to create an episode. The cast and crew are currently working as hard as they can to provide their viewers with a satisfying story.
