Dear all:

The following is the message posted by Ken in the Japanese board.  I think it's quite interesting.  I used the translation website to get the translation and modified a little.  If anyone, especially our Japanese friends, found anything not  right in the translation, please correct me.  I would appreciate that.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is from the report of a magazine called  Nikkei entertainment (Nihon Keizai Shimbun system of a national paper of Japan).

The survey of the awareness of "Winter Sonata" (February 5 -12 , 2004, 6379 men, 3412 women)

Do you know "Winter Sonata"?  Yes,   Man   72.1%     Woman   89.3%

Have you watched it?  
"All or part of it" -    Man   18.3%    Woman  24.6%

Which part was good? (multiple answers)
Man - "Choi Ji-Woo" 59.3% ,
           "Story" 55.7% ,
           "Music" 36.9% ,
           "Scene" 36.0%
           "Bae Yong-Joon" 29.3%
           "Dialogue" 16.6%

                "Bae Yong-Joon" 56.5%,

In the original Ken's message, Ken did mention that because the survey was done before Ji-Woo's visit to Japan. If it's done by now, the % of the question of "Do you know Winter Sonata" should be nealy 100%.

Personally I was surprised to know there were almost 9800 subjects in the survey. However, the ratio between man and woman was not balanced. I guess if there were more woman subjects in the survey, then the % of the question of "Have you watched it" will be higher in the woman's category. It's an exciting evidence to know that Ji-Woo is liked by many Japanese men and women.

yes, JCL, the sample this survey chose is really not even. 2:1 ratio between men and women. As we all know the majority of the audience of Korean drama is still female. Anyway very glad to see Jiwoo is the top one choice of (which parts are good) among men.
