Kwak Jae-Yong (born May 22, 1959) is a South Korean director and screenwriter. He studied physics at Kyunghee University. He achieved success with his debut film Watercolor Painting in a Rainy Day in 1989, but the failure of his next two movies led to eight years of unemployment before a comeback with the smash-hit film My Sassy Girl in 2001. He is known for his limitless fondness of love stories set in a mix of different genres.

In both My Sassy Girl and Windstruck, Kwak uses gun scenes and fairy tales told by the characters, and the characters are actually very close before.
