In 2002, the "Winter Love Song" starring Bae Yong-joon and Choi Ji-woo was broadcast, and the story of Jiang Junshang and Jeong Weizhen earned the tears of countless Chinese people, and until now, "Winter Love" is still one of the most classic Korean dramas.

Snow-filled Chuncheon, a student couple began a long first love story, telling the story of dog blood or twists and turns, the male and female protagonists experienced more than ten years of "death farewell" and birth and separation, and finally met again at the end, although Jiang Junshang has not been seen, but when he thinks of the Korean dramas of those years, the screenwriter really dares to write the protagonist to death, so it is fortunate that he did not die.
The embrace of Junshang and Weizhen under the sunset is probably the last impression of many viewers on this drama.

In fact, the story of "Winter Love Song" has a better ending.
In 2009, "Winter Love Song" has been completed for a full 7 years, and the Japanese people have a crazy love for this drama (don't ask the Japanese how crazy they are about this drama, in 2003, "Winter Love Song" was introduced to Japan, replayed three times in a row, and the ratings actually did not drop but rose; then Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi praised Pei Yongjun and hoped to gain the support of women like him; Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who just stepped down a few days ago, his wife Abe Akie is a fan of Bae Yongjun and Park Yonghe, and accompanied her husband on a trip to South Korea. Also to meet idols; in 2015, that year, Bae Yongjun got married, and the long-term Japanese fans also organized a group to go outside the hotel where the wedding was held to witness the idol's happy moment, probably the above crazy bar), hard to produce an almost identical animation version of the original drama, and then invited Bae Yongjun and Choi Ji-woo to voice.
This is not the point, the point is that the last episode of this animated version is seamlessly connected to a live-action wedding!

Seven years after the end of the TV series, Pei Yongjun and Cui Zhiyou, who are no longer young, finally put on their dresses and wedding dresses, they held each other's hands, and finally said the vow that the audience did not wait for in the TV series version.
At that moment, I suddenly understood the persistence and romance of Japanese audiences, and perhaps this is the most beautiful ending in the era of tragic Korean dramas.
