On February 4, 2013, Jo cut his hand while filming a scene in Icheon, Gyeonggi Province, where he had to punch a wall in anger, after the glass frame broke on impact. He received 13 stitches for his wound at a nearby hospital, then returned to the set and finished shooting.{{cite news|last=Sunwoo|first=Carla|title=Zo In-sung suffers serious gash on set|url=http://koreajoongangdaily.joinsmsn.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2966825|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130411045556/http://koreajoongangdaily.joinsmsn.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2966825|url-status=usurped|archive-date=April 11, 2013|access-date=February 18, 2013|newspaper=Korea JoongAng Daily|date=February 8, 2013}}{{cite web|last=Park|first=Hani|title=Zo in Sung Continues Drama Shoot Despite Injury|url=http://enewsworld.mnet.com/enews/contents.asp?idx=28567|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130411092312/http://enewsworld.mnet.com/enews/contents.asp?idx=28567|url-status=dead|archive-date=April 11, 2013|work=enewsWorld|publisher=CJ E&M|access-date=February 18, 2013|date=February 7, 2013}}

When the production filmed on location at Yongpyong Ski Resort in Daegwallyeong-myeon, Pyeongchang, Gangwon Province, fashion magazine High Cut was invited along the shoot for three days and two nights. The feature appeared on the cover of High Cut{{'}}s March 2013 edition (or Issue 97).{{cite news|last=Hong|first=Grace Danbi|title=That Winter, The Wind Blows Gets Beautifully Captured on High Cut|url=http://enewsworld.interest.me/enews/contents.asp?idx=30879|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130703030851/http://enewsworld.interest.me/enews/contents.asp?idx=30879|url-status=dead|archive-date=July 3, 2013|access-date=April 8, 2013|newspaper=enewsWorld|date=March 8, 2013|agency=CJ E&M}}

Director Kim Kyu-tae utilized a lot of ultra close-up shots, to highlight the characters' emotions and accentuate the smallest movement in the actors' faces or expression in their eyes. Cinematographer and visual director Kim Cheon-seok said such visual techniques differentiated the show from the standard set by existing Korean dramas, which usually resort to medium shots or bust shots. To produce such detailed shots, the crew used expensive high-definition ALEXA Plus cameras, known for their rich color and high-speed cinematography. Lighting director Park Hwan also employed twice as much lighting equipment as do other dramas. Another technique the crew used was post-production correction, which was possible because when the first episode aired, eight were already taped. Park said, "It's both my and Kim's philosophy that the actress should look beautiful even when she is wailing."{{cite web|last=Han|first=Eun-hwa|title=Baramibunda ready for its close-up|url=http://koreajoongangdaily.joinsmsn.com/news/article/Article.aspx?aid=2968006|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130411051627/http://koreajoongangdaily.joinsmsn.com/news/article/Article.aspx?aid=2968006|url-status=usurped|archive-date=April 11, 2013|work=Korea JoongAng Daily|access-date=March 16, 2013|date=March 6, 2013}}

Among the product placements (PPL) in the series were Laneige cosmetics (featured in episode 4 when the character Oh Young gets a makeover at a Laneige store before her high school reunion; Song has been the brand's endorser for six years), tuxedo maker Parkland, and Hyundai Motor Company. Viewers have complained on the drama's website about the overuse of PPL.{{cite news|last=Do|first=Je-hae|title=Soap opera, literally: Viewers frustrated over blurring boundaries between dramas, commercials|url=https://koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/culture/2013/03/135_132431.html|access-date=March 22, 2013|newspaper=The Korea Times|date=March 20, 2013|archive-date=January 13, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140113100126/http://koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/culture/2013/03/135_132431.html|url-status=live}}

In March 2013, Song sponsored the cost of publication of guidebooks for the blind at the Independence Hall of Korea in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province. The project was organized by Seo Kyoung-duk, a professor at Sungshin Women's University, after learning that braille brochures were unavailable at the site and other local museums despite the large number of visually impaired visitors. Song joined the effort at Seo's suggestion in November 2012, noting that her role as a blind woman helped her better understand the daily challenges faced by people with disabilities.{{cite news|last=Lee|first=Sun-min|title=Song Hye-gyo donates money for Braille brochure production for Independence museum|url=http://koreajoongangdaily.joinsmsn.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2969211|access-date=April 8, 2013|newspaper=Korea JoongAng Daily|date=March 28, 2013|url-status=usurped|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130616151504/http://koreajoongangdaily.joinsmsn.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2969211|archive-date=June 16, 2013|df=mdy-all}}{{cite web|title=Song Hye-kyo Opens Wallet to Help the Blind|url=http://english.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2013/03/28/2013032800838.html|work=The Chosun Ilbo|access-date=April 8, 2013|date=March 28, 2013|archive-date=January 10, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170110232338/http://english.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2013/03/28/2013032800838.html|url-status=live}}
