MOVIE REVIEW: Windstruck (Korean, 2004)

Whether you like it or not, one of the most highly revered South Korean movie was 2001’s My Sassy Girl (Yeopgijeogin). The movie’s director Jae-young Kwak, as well as actor Tae-hyeon Cha and South Korea’s ‘It Girl’ Ji-hyun Jeon’s fame skyrocketed. Before 2001, romcom (romantic comedy) movies were nowhere to be found in the South Korean film industry. Through My Sassy Girl’s success, South Koreans started to appreciated this kind of genre.

Thus it was not surprising that people expected a LOT from Windstruck (Nae yeojachingureul sogae habnida), after learning that it was the reunion of My Sassy Girl’s director and lead actress. Surprisingly, despite being one of South Korea’s highly successful movies, it hardly became a runaway success that its backers had been expecting.
