Factoid: Yoon Suk Ho was the producer/director of Autumn
Story, which had a fall theme. He is also producing/directing
this drama, which will have a winter theme highlighting snow.
He hopes to also make dramas with Spring and Summer
themes.
Koreans are known to be very hard workers. An example is
Bae Yong Jun, who became so overworked and stressed out
while filming this drama that he had to be hospitalized.
Being the responsible person he is, he diligently returned to
work despite his burnout.*

Learn Korean:
gyeoul (gyeo-ul) = winter
yeonga (yeon-ga) = love song/ballad
There are many romanization systems to convert Hangul
to English. The title for this drama was transliterated
using the revised romanization system being promoted by
the South Korean government. Many Koreans dislike this
revised system. However, the revised system is slowly
being adapted as the main romanization system. Note: if
a Korean has been using another romanization system to
translate her name, she can continue to use whatever
romanization of her name she wants and does not need to
switch to the new system. For example, Kim Hyun Ju
can continue using that name instead of switching to Gim
Hyeon Ju under the revised system
Variations of drama name:
Winter Ballad (title used by KBFD-TV)
Winter Love Poem
Winter Sonata
Staff:
