Season of Good Rain (Korean: 호우시절; translit. Howoosijeol), also known as A Good Rain Knows, is a 2009 film by Heo Jin-ho. Originally intended as the second segment of Chengdu, I Love You, the director and producers expanded its running time and released it as a stand-alone feature. The film stars Korean actor Jung Woo-sung and Chinese actress Yuanyuan Gao.
Timely like the spring rain, so has he come back into my life... Dong-ha is a thirty-something Korean man on a business trip to Chengdu, China where his company is carrying out construction projects to rebuild the city after the earthquake of 2008. There, totally by chance, he meets an old friend from his school days in the U.S. May is originally from Chengdu, and she has come back here after graduation and now works as a tour guide. Dong-ha and May were perhaps more than friends and had feelings for each other then, but they parted ways before they had a chance to define or declare them. Now that they are thrown on each other's path again, however, they find that the old feelings remain and new ones are forming and that they resemble love.
