Spring Waltz starring Seo Do Young, Han Hyo Joo, Lee So Yeon and Daniel Henney
From revered director Yoon Suk Ho comes the last of the famed Four Seasons dramas (Winter Sonata, Autumn Fairy Tale, and Summer Scent) that helped start the Korean Wave. Spring Waltz stars Seo Do Young (Emperor of the Sea, Friend, Our Legend) and Han Hyo Joo (Shining Inheritance) in the first major role of her career. Lee So Yeon (Temptation of an Angel) and Daniel Henney (Kim Sam-Soon) co-star.
Lee Sun Ho (played by Seo Do Young) grows up the son of a gambler always on the run from debt. Eventually his father abandons Sun Ho on a small island, taking with him all the money the family has saved for their sick daughter's surgery. Instead of running from his family's shame, Sun Ho is persuaded to stay by the kind-hearted Eun Young (Han Hyo Joo), and the two form a deep bond as she helps him search for his father. Tragedy strikes when during their quest, Eun Young is injured and assumed dead. Consumed by guilt, Sun Ho runs away and ends up adopting a new identity along with a new wealthy family.
Fifteen years later, Sun Ho is a renowned pianist, as cold as he is brilliant. While giving a concert in Austria, he crosses paths with a Korean girl who dreams of becoming a designer, but he denies that it could possibly be his lost love. Faced with many difficulties, the two begin to slowly fall in love while unaware of each other's identities. Can the childhood sweethearts ever recapture that springtime on the island together?
