“That Winter, The Wind Blows” a Total Hit in Singapore

SBS drama “That Winter, The Wind Blows” is not only a hit home, but also in other Asian countries.

On March 20th, the drama's producer company Golden Thumb, revealed that the drama recorded high ratings in Singapore.

The drama started to air on March 15th, in the Singaporean channel One Channel. The drama has higher records than expected, when it recorded more than 1% of viewership ratings. This is really rare for overseas dramas.

A representative from the company said, “ It is unusual that a drama that has not finished airs overseas. With 'That Winter, The Wind Blows' as soon as it aired in Korea it was sold to Singapore, due to Jo In Sung and Son Hye Kyo being the leading roles.”

Obviously, the company did not expected to receive such a good response with only the first episode being aired.

President of Golden Thumb commented, “We didn't expect such hot reaction. We will see more high ratings, and this will revive the Hallyu wave again.”

Besides Singapore, the drama has also been sold to different Asian countries, and as soon as the drama shooting ends, the main leads will hold a tour in the countries where the drama will air.

Meanwhile, the drama is in its 13th episode in Korea, and Oh Soo's (Jo In Sung) real identity have been discovered by Oh Young (Song Hye Kyo).
