The stand out drama for me was Something in the Rain. I like the way the audience never quite knew if their love could make it in the context of Korean culture. It had amazing depth of feeling, One Spring Night was more wooden and unrealistic but had a similar mood. All the cast were excellently chosen. Jung Hae In and Son Ye Jin are a natural coupling and many of the obstacles they encountered would be a be same anywhere, not so much the age, what is 5 years, but the family background and expectations. Their love felt so real and the sex scenes delicately done, unlike in Western dramas which would have seen them naked and spoiled everything. I hope we see them together again in an equally quality production. You have perfect touch as a director. Thank you FR Jun 09 2020 3:15 pm Next project starring Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin should be done by him Y Jun 06 2020 11:08 pm I miss your cinematography. hehehe Lorella Masseria Apr 19 2020 5:24 am Thank You Maestro! Crisanto de Leon Aug 04 2019 9:10 pm I have a new story please send me your email so I can send the story. Nadia May 31 2019 4:13 pm Started watching One Spring Night and during the intro I kept saying "this feels like Something in the Rain". Not because of Jung Hae In. It just had a similar feeling. Looked up the director and look who it is! :-) XD. I like his style. I might seek out more of his work. Carmen May 25 2018 10:33 am "Something in the rain" is such a wonderful drama! I had such a great time watching it. The main actress and actor had such a great chemistry. Also loved the rest of the crew members. I am sad that it ended already. It has so many potential to be continued. Thank you for your great work! Greetings from Austria. GZB Apr 21 2018 11:05 pm Truly a great PDNim. He takes directing and producing and elevates it to an art form. Secret Love Affair is his masterpiece. Seeing him as the PDNim is enough to get me to sign on to a drama. MVPM Feb 02 2017 9:47 am Just finished the Grapevine and cannot resist adding my comments. After enduring many K-dramas attempting to learn Korean, I was surprised with the quality, perception, sensitivity and depth of this one. It seems that the whole range of human pretentions is exposed with ease and impartiality. Now, I want to know more about this director and his work, clearly out of the ordinary, not to learn Korean but to learn about life and people. The series evolved at a comfortable pace and did not over use the grotesque eating spectacles that abound in k-dramas -frankly, the only effect they have is to gross me out enough to stop watching. Instead, here the serenity, harmony, beauty, flowers and lightning of the tastefully filmed house contrast with the people's character; every single one of the personages is ugly in some way, in particular, the pregnant girl I found repulsive insight out. It seems that all brands of hypocrisy and treason are explored and all strategies to gain advantage by exploiting trust, fear and ambition are tried by the poor and the rich, the powerful and the weak, the young and the old, the smart and the dim each at the measure of their own capabilities. To capture that with such ease in a popular TV series I find remarkable and for that this director is now a favorite of mine. Alan Mar 20 2016 12:34 pm My favourite director of kdramas. The stories created with the writer of Hear if through the Grapevine, A Wife's Credentials, and Secret Love Affair are truly genius. They are framed and shot brilliantly and there is no end to metaphor and symbolism in these shows. They truly are works of art and take television drama to a completely different level. The funkstar Jan 27 2016 11:46 am Just finished watching secret love affer and have not watched a dream thats made feel s deep in a long time. Feeling the emotions with the music was is going to be so unforgettable for me. I really don't knkw what word i can experience to let you all know how, this drema made me feel. I will follow you and the writers work from now one. min Dec 29 2015 8:24 pm i am a fan of you, i watch secret love affair and fall in love with the way you potret the story. it can end up to be a stupid affair if the director is not as good as you, but you visual it into a beautiful drama. it's like listen a mix of life, classic music and poem. very beautiful. brandon31 Sep 10 2015 1:56 am i saw grapevine and been hearing about a wife's credentials and secret love affair. i'm watching the former right now and its daebak!!! JH Aug 08 2015 8:11 pm This man is a great artist. I've been so impressed with all of his work. Just watched Grapevine and the first thing I noticed was the music. Then the choice in sets/lighting. Great plot and actors. The welcome message of change is happening everywhere these days. (sad about the ending being cut so obviously but, there is probably a whole drama around that!) gasenadi Jun 27 2015 12:55 pm Astonished at the lack of praises in this section under Maestro An Pan-Seok, just the extraordinary director of the BEST dramas of recent years. A Wife's Credentials, A Secret Love Affair and Heard It Through the Grapevine have surpassed all other kdramas in nuance, complexity, message and BEAUTY. Now I understand why other kdrama offerings are called "fluff". After finishing SLA, I tried to revisit an old favorite rom-com and it was like eating sawdust! No flavor and even less nutritional substance for the brain. Thank you, An Pan-Seok for making us think, challenging the viewer, and doing it with visual style. (Behind the White Tower is another unforgettable drama!)
