We are proud that Mr Zo In Sung shares our passion to engage with the fans of That Winter, The Wind Blows and warmly welcome him to Southeast Asia,” said Ricky Ow, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Networks, Asia, Sony Pictures Television.

ONE’s That Winter, The Wind Blows is the blockbuster Korean drama series to date in 2013 with a touching story, excellent writing, and visuals to match, brought to life by a brilliant cast. Leading man Zo stars opposite Song Hye Kyo (Full House, The World That They Live In), both making their comebacks to TV with this series. That Winter, The Wind Blows is Zo's first TV drama in eight years since Spring Day in 2005, and his first acting project since completing mandatory military service in 2011.

In That Winter, The Wind Blows, Zo plays Oh Soo, an orphan who gives up on life after losing his first love, gets obsessed with gambling and becomes a con-artist. His next target is Oh Young, played by Song, the sole heiress to a large corporation after tragically losing her parents and her eyesight. He tries to get near Oh Young by pretending to be her long-lost brother. Henceforth, these two individuals, isolated in their own ways from the world, begin to understand the meaning of life together.
