Happiness in the Wind

Happiness in the Wind[1] (Korean: 바람 불어 좋은날; RR: Baram Bureo Joheunnal; lit.

A Good Day for the Wind to Blow) is a 2010 South Korean television series starring Kim So-eun and Jin Yi-han.

Wanting to find her father who abandoned her when Oh-bok's mother had died 10 years earlier, she heads to Seoul where she earns a living selling her handmade merchandise out of a street-side stall.

Their chance meeting initiates an "ongoing battle" which eventually unfolds into a somewhat love triangle between them and her old hometown oppa, Ki-chul (Kang Eun-tak).

As the drama continues, Oh-bok gets to know Dae-han's younger brother, Jang Min-guk (Lee Hyun-jin), a drifter, upon saving his life when she thought he was trying to commit suicide.

And just as Dae-han opens up his feelings to Oh-bok, his first love and the mother of his son, Choi Mi-ran (Lee Sung-min), the only daughter to a rival food company who had moved to the States for an arranged marriage, returns to Korea as a divorcee to reconnect with her life with him and their son.

A 19-year-old talented girl who refuses to give up her dream of becoming a top illustrator, notwithstanding being left to care for herself.

Oh-bok has nothing that she can call her own in her lifetime, not even the little room nor the bed she shares with her good friend, Han Ki-chul.

The eldest son of the family, Dae-han is a design team leader who graduated from a top university and has a successful career.

Man-se is a materialistic young woman with a princess complex who models for an internet shopping mall.

She has always thought that she had to marry a rich man to enjoy a good life, and is even willing to do plastic surgery to reach her goal.

(Note: The given names of the three Jang children, "Dae-han", "Min-guk" and "Man-se" combined form a phrase that sounds like the exclamation "Long Live the Republic of Korea!")
