Kang Eun-tak completes love triangle in Fine Windy Day
by javabeans
When I posted a few days back about the new daily drama Fine Windy Day [바람불어 좋은날], the one major cast member missing in all the news was Kim So-eun‘s second love interest (the first is Jin Yi-han of Conspiracy in the Court and Who Are You). The role has now been filled by 27-year-old newcomer Kang Eun-tak, of East of Eden and Jumong. The production has also released first cast photos of the two main families (see below).
Kim So-eun plays a feisty poor girl named Oh-bok, while Kang Eun-tak plays the supportive “Daddy Long Legs” type of oppa, Ki-chul, who appears when she’s facing difficulty to comfort her. A love triangle forms between Oh-bok, Ki-chul, and the design leader of a major company named Dae-han, played by Jin Yi-han. (Some have tagged Ki-chul this drama’s Yoon Ji-hoo, aka Kim Hyun-joong’s character from Boys Before Flowers who was always around to help the girl but ultimately didn’t win her love. While it hasn’t been explicitly stated which is the main pairing, it looks like it’ll be Jin Yi-han.) A secondary romance will unfold between material girl Seo Hyo-rim and the son of a wealthy family played by Kang Ji-sub.
Kang Eun-tak said of his role, “I have a relatively large part compared to my newcomer status, but the dramas I’ve worked on, Jumong and East of Eden, have both had high viewership ratings. I’ll work hard on Fine Windy Day to make it a drama that can boast the year’s best ratings.”
Fine Windy Day has a the writer-director combo of Lee Deok-jae, who wrote Bizarre Bunch, and PD Lee Deok-gun, also of that drama and Likable or Not. It follows the highly rated (30%-plus) daily drama Everybody Cha Cha Cha and premieres on February 1.

^ Yeah, I was just going to ask what role he played in East Of Eden (God knows what I think about that drama, but I won't complain about that here...). His face doesn't register with my memory.
Ahah, I was looking up information on this and turns out Lee Hyunjin is playing Jin Yihan's little brother. It's cute because Jin Yihan's name is Daehan and Lee Hyunjin's name is Hangook. Ahahaha... haha.... ha. LOL.
I can't believe this is premiering so soon... Goodness gracious, February 1st. Another daily drama to suck away all of my time. (Also looks like Lee Hyunjin will have maybe a wasted character...) Kim Soeun and Jin Yihan! Woot woot!

Also, I have an objection. Why is every nice-guy character who is the second male lead now being tagged as the "Yoon Jihoo" of bla bla bla drama?! Is it purely because of the Boys over Flowers phenomenon? I'm getting tired of that terminology. I'd rather call it the "Kang Shinwoo" of bla bla bla drama. Or the "Park Junse" of the bla bla bla drama. What's with this?!

OMG.....I Think IT IS !!!! I MISS HER <3 ever since High Kick I didn't see her in any dramas I was interested in.
I think I might like this drama, and it might be a success fro KBS. But I am tired of Love triangles... there doesn't need to be THE NICE GUY in any relationships or love affairs....Seriously...

So I first got into Kdramas when I was in College in Philadelphia... one of the stations would show KBS World programming int he evenings and there was a always a daily drama at midnight that my roommates and I would take a study break and watch together. The very first Korean drama I ever watched was Bizarre Bunch and I also watched Likable or Not during that period. I thoroughly enjoyed both of these shows and Likable or Not is still once of the favorite dramas I've ever watched. Granted, this long before I was introduced to the wonder that is the 16 episode weekly drama... when I moved back home to Atlanta I decided not to have a TV and went online in search of episodes of whatever was showing in Philly and discovered just ow much I had been missing by only being exposed to ajumma dramas! Anyhow, I said all that to say that, if the other projects from the writer and PD are any indication, this show will be interesting and fun... I doubt that I'll follow this show religiously but, if I can find subs for it, I wouldn't mind a few marathon sessions on a boring weekend...

I was hoping for "Kang Ji Sub - Kim So Eun" triangle...but I guess its change. But I'm still hoping that when it airs, Kim So Eun and Kang Ji Sub would have a great chemistry; therefore, sparking the writers to change the story, hehehe.

Ah, I was hoping Lee Hyunjin would be one of the main leads. He so need to get a more major role soon. He's TOO CUTE!

Ok, if Kim So Eun is the lead actress in this drama why isn't she in the photo shoot? I know that in her cyworld she wrote that she's gonna surprise us with a "new look" (yeah I've seen it, new hairstyle with bangs, why kim so eun, why?!) but otherwise I can't figure out why our leading lady isn't in the shoot.

I find Lee HyunJin cute too, but i guess the reason he never gets the main lead role has something to do with the way he delivers his dialogue...he has a slight "lisp"...well you can correct me if i'm wrong...but he's still young & has great potential!!!
He is so wasted on Assorted Gems & he was the reason I watched Family Honor!!! Maybe he'll be ripe for the picking on his next drama if he does better here...

Even though it has a great cast, just remember people ITS A VERY LIGHT DRAMA you have to expect any daily drama to be so.
sadly.

Yeah, I agree (I've noticed his slight lisp), I think that's the main reason he hasn't gotten any proposal for main lead ! It's kind of sad since he is a really good actor, and I wanted him to be in Playfull Kiss since he is not a famous actor (he could spring up and become famous like LMH)
I hope some PD hooks him up with a lead role :D I'm sure huge wants one too.

So who will be with Kim So Eun in the end? I suppose it's Jin Yi Han? or Kang Eun Tak? I'm confused. -__-
She looks cute with both of them nonetheless. :)

i'm watching this whenever i have the time. just because my mom will watch daily dramas (i brought her into this) and def because of the cast. they look great!
actually youthful cast appeared in you are my destiny as well (remember yoona, lee ji hoon and such) but somehow these faces appeal to me more. maybe i just love kim so eun so much. or maybe YAMD was just horrible. i would never bother marrying the guy if the MIL was like that.
i hope the writer/director duo will be alright, since they both did long dramas before. i think daily dramas need experienced writers. not writers who write minis or film.
the story does sound cliche though. pure 19 + YAMD but it's good to see a youthful drama again since The Road Home and EBDCC. Yes, I watched all of them ever since Likeable or Not. (I like Likeable or Not, Han Ji Hye was awesomeness). Can they please incorporate some proper story??? pretty please....

@knai, i'm getting tired too of love triangles or parents opposing this and that relationship in most dramas. happy monday, btw. :D
i wish there were other angles to explore beside the triangle part or fourth. anyway, i just started reading info about this drama. i like so eun so i'll give this a try. i also loved both writers. bizarre bunch and likable or not were very well written. even my ex thought so. hehe. i got him into dramas because of those. ☺
