Windstruck

Cast:
Yeo Kyunjin (Jeon Ji Yeon) 
Myung Woo (Jang Hyuk) 
Synopsis:
Kyungjin is a kick-ass female cop who has two separate very comical run-ins with Myungwoo, a teacher, which result in them falling in love. Kyungjin rescues Myungwoo's butt twice, but Myungwoo has this habit of meddling when he knows Kyungjin is chasing after criminals.

What I Think:
While trying to write this stuff, I still haven't decided what to rate this movie. Okay, I just think people are loving this one because Jeon Ji Yeon is in it. The big Jeon Ji Yeon fan that I am, I wanted to check this out for months! I just didn't have time! I got around to watching this one because I saw the posters of My Sassy Girl already hanging in Gotesco malls and stuff. I remembered 'Windstruck."
I only have 2 questions after watching this movie:
1. Can Jeon Ji Yeon really play the piano?
2. When Kyungjin was in a coma in the hospital, her partner wanted to tell her something important, what the smokes was it? Because there was no scene of him telling her that important stuff. I just knew he's married. J
I cannot say NO chemistry but there is weak chemistry between the two leads. Jang Hyuk's character is weak and he kind of disappears from the second part of the movie. Jang Hyuk looks way cuter than Cha Tae Hyun but he lacks the charm that CTH had in My Sassy Girl.
My favorite scenes:
@ Myungwoo getting his lips burnt when he tries to kiss Kyungjin. I had a little laugh in there.
@ Kyungjin & Myungwoo in the middle ages romance fantasy. I love this one! I thought they'd be doing a crappy Snow White story and stuff, but nope. Jeon Ji Yeon was so beautiful as the princess!! By god she really is! J
@ Myungwoo visits Kyung Jin's home and learns a lot about her, that she had a twin and how she died and how she has never touched the black keys of the piano ever scenes. So the big question that hounded the aliens and ancient rulers of china and me, can Jeon Ji Yeon really play the piano? J J Can she? I tried to check her piano keys while playing, she gets them right though.
@ When Kyungjin brings food to Myungwoo in school. She tells his students that she's his girlfriend, and that they have already slept together! Hahahah! His students tease him! He just smiled.
@ Myungwoo getting stuck between two walls!! Omfgg! This was my fave funny scene in the movie! Totally hilarious!! J J Myungwoo saw the 2 hoodlums trying to stab the girl so he charges on between the walls! And got stuck between them, so he cannot move! I almost died laughing here! The hoodlum was already going to stab the hostage so Myungwoo just shouted (coz he can't move) Stop it!! The funniest!! One of the stupid hoodlums saw him and charged onto him and also got stuck between the walls!! * Rolling on the floor laughing* J The hoodlum tried to stab Myungwoo but can no longer move any closer coz they're both stuck! It was almost a cutthroat! Hahahah!
@ Jeon Ji Yeon saw Myungwoo's new jeep. As he drives the jeep in circles around her, she does a "fake gunning scene" Omg I love the cinematography here, the way the camera shots just circling on Jj Yeon and her beautiful hair! They went on a vacation. They come to the mountain top and he tells her "If I will die, I will become the wind, so when you feel the wind blowing you'll know it's me." I love that line!
@ Kyungjin opening her piano with the black keys already painted white and Myungwoo's letter that said " I'd like to see you play the piano. I'd like to see the real you." It made me cry loads and loads of tears.
@ The ending scene!! From the book Kyungjin got with Myukwoo's caricatures and his picture!! Omg he has already loved her since then! Aish! The ending scene is really satisfying. J
Rating: 7 Korean Kimchis out of 10
Other Stuff:
I thought of posting some interesting stuffs about this movie:
** The movie's ost "The Wind is Here" is such a good song, it sounds like the ending theme song of The Classic.
**"Windstruck" was actually shot in chilly winter but the setting of the movie is summer. So the stars have to wear sheer-thin summer clothes in cold air. After the chilling shots were taken, Jeon Ji Hyun fell sick.
** Jeon Ji Yeon and Jang Hyuk are close like siblings almost because they are both from the same management company, Sidus. (which also manages Song Hye Kyo, Song Yu Ri, Jo In Sung and GOD). She cooks for Jang Hyuk nd the staff, Ji Yeon is a good cook.
** One of the guy in the middle ages fantasy scene, the tallest one that fainted, is actually the same guy who keeps on fainting in "The Classic" He plays Tae Soo there, who likes Son Ye Jin there and he also starred in "Spin Kick."
** Symphathy MV link - Starring Jo In Sung, Jang Hyuk, Bae Yong Jun, Kim Jae Won and Cha Seung Won: http://hermesyongjun.com/pdsdata/kbs/yy_020629.wmv
** You may notice lots of scenes, people, lines that connects this movie to "My Sassy Girl," that's because the director wants Windstruck to be a tribute to My Sassy girl.
** This is the pic I saw of Jang Hyuk:

That's why I really wanted to watch Windstruck, coz Jang Huk is looking so hot hot hot. I was a bit disappointed that he had short hair in this movie, I was even asking myself, okay wait…is this Jang Hyuk? I thought he was really tall like Won Bin-tall, and really cute like Kwon Sang Woo-cute…but nah aint it. But when I see close shots of him, yes he looks cute too, I still cannot believe he is such a shortie! I like his long hair better!!! Wahhh!!
** Jang Hyuk Starred in "Daemang" with Han Jae Suk and Son Ye Jin (The Classic, Summer Scent). I bet he got long hair in this drama! His hair was this long:
<< Jeez he looks like kwon sang woo here does he?
