这是一部感人至深的制作，在日本很受欢迎，制作者每年推出一集，连续上演多年，而参加演出的演员阵容却没有变化，从而在艺术上实现了真实。在剧中扮演父亲的是日本著名的老演员田中邦 卫，曾经因为在《背叛》、《非凡的勇气》、《八墓村》等影视剧中的演出赢得了很好的声誉，而中国观众记忆最深的则是他在《追捕》中塑造的反派角色横路进二。在《北国之恋》中，他扮演的父亲朴实、勤劳、忠厚，为了一对儿女付出了一生的精力。在《北国之恋》中扮演兄妹的吉冈秀隆、中岛朋子都是从十岁起就开始参加该部电视剧的拍摄，可以说他们是随着这部电视剧长大的，当《北国之恋》最终封镜时，这对当年的童星也成了日本演艺界的名人。此外，在本剧中客串出演的有竹下景子、宫泽理惠等著名演员。
