I Was NOT Disappointed!

I enjoyed this drama VERY much! It was clean and not off-putting. Many Kdramas have become linguistically distasteful (overuse of profanity) these days like the shows here in America. I found LND quite refreshing. The lead characters worked well together to present a relationship of love, longing, and denial. Their parents and friends only added to the sense of family and true friendship. This is a series for viewers who want a lighthearted rom-com. Yes, it was a bit predictable, but in a fun way. Would I watch it again? DEFINITELY!!!

Beautiful Love Story

The title "South Wind Knows" gives an indication that there will be twists and turns, ups and downs, happiness and sadness, intrigue and disinterest. The story seems all over the place without connecting the dots to some viewers. In my opinion, each facet of the story stems from the two lead characters. Though they may not be deemed to be as strong as the main storyline, each character in the Fu family has his own drama. There is nothing about SWK that lends to the idea of being boring. The main characters' story is a beautiful depiction of true love, trust, sacrifice, fear, acceptance, rejection, and love again. Even though it can be seen as unreal, viewers must remember that this drama is fiction; therefore, anything can take place. The typical overbearing mother should not be a surprise. The son who wishes to please his controlling parent is not surprising either. I give SWK a solid 10 because I accept it for what it is...a well-acted, complexly presented story of first love and the drama of a typical greedy rich family. The music is lovely and fitting for SWK.

I Am Enjoying MIL

This a typical drama about love, breakups, and misunderstandings even though the love is real. The lack of communication led to unnecessary heartache and fear of being hurt caused doubt and mistrust. Even though MIL was predictable, as they/dramas all can be the same, I have thoroughly enjoyed the FL/ML interactions. The comedic interludes between the four friends kept me laughing! This drama is worth a second viewing.
**After completing the series, I am not satisfied with the main lead couple's resolution of their romantic conflict. There could have been a better outcome in my opinion!**

Worth the Watch

I won't go into any details except to say the pairing of the FL and ML was perfect! The comedic timing was perfect! The acting was perfect! Don't miss this drama! It is one of the best, uncomplicated series I have ever watched. No one will be disappointed in this May-December romantic comedy. The pacing of each episode was just enough to grasp the storyline and still want to watch it again while waiting for the next one. As I said, I'm giving no details; so, watch NGNL for yourselves and be thoroughly enamored with the lead characters.
