Starring:
In Su ~ Bae
Yong Jun
Seo Young ~ Son Yae Jin
Synopsis:
 The
allure of forbidden love reigns supreme in the
long-awaited motion picture, April Snow!
Mega-popular actor Bae Yong Joon, star of the smash hit
Korean drama Winter Sonata, headlines this highly
anticipated romance directed by Heo Jin Ho, the man
behind such acclaimed films as One Fine Spring Day
and Christmas in August.
Released
in Korea and Japan simultaneously, the film centers on
In Su (Bae Yong Joon) as he travels to Korea's east
coast after discovering that his wife Su Jin (Im Sang
Hyo) was critically injured in a car accident. To In
Su's surprise, it seems that she was traveling with a
man named Kyung Ho (Ryoo Seung Soo, from The
President's Barber), and both of them now lie in the
operating room as they undergo treatment for their
injuries. While waiting for news of his wife's
condition, In-Su meets the man's wife, Seo-Young (Son Ye
Jin, from A Moment to Remember) and together, the
two of them piece together the devastating truth: their
spouses were carrying on an affair.
Deeply
upset by this shocking revelation, the duo's world spins
out of control, as they both come to grips with their
feelings of sorrow and betrayal. After several chance
encounters, the two become closer. Both stay at the same
dingy motel, and soon enough, they forge a deep
connection. Will they act on their feelings for each
other? And if they do succumb to their passions, will it
be out of revenge or out of love? The answers await in
Heo Jin Ho's April Snow, the stirring romance
that swept Asia by storm!

Korea is
riding on the "hallyu" movement -
the globalization of Korean dramas (K-dramas).
Whether it's Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, China
or the U.S., viewers who watch Korean dramas
are enamored by the "real" acting
and fascinating stories that unfold before
their eyes.
K-dramas
are a refreshing change for many, and some,
like Winter Sonata, take them back to first
loves. Others like, Dae Jang Geum, tell
about history in a fascinating way with rich
costumes and realistic sets.
While
some viewers may find them too
"mild" for their taste, many others
will be thrilled to find tasteful, endearing
programming that reels them in and leaves them
wanting more...and more...and more....and then
they're hooked only to find that they are part
of the "hallyu" movement.
Buying
Korean Dramas
If
you are interested in buying Korean dramas, be
careful where you buy them. Buying from
eBay and other sites may be less expensive,
but as the saying goes "you get what you
pay for."
From
personal experience, buying off of eBay or
other sites usually results in bootleg or
illegal copies of the dramas which results in
poor picture quality. Some bootleg
copies also have very poor English subtitles,
ranging from jibberish to excessive foul
language. The only site we use and
recommend, because of the excellent quality of
the DVDs and English subtitles, is YesAsia.com.
YesAsia.com is the only authorized distributor
of Korean DVDs in North America.
