Just finished watching the last episode.ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜Ok guys can anyone list some dramas to watch to recover…
Long Vacation. Old but gold. Better combat this by watching something completely different! I also recommend Mars, Story of Yanxi Palace and It's okay that's love
I find it funny now when I think about all the petitions and controversy at the beginning and also for those who…
yeah we really were wasting our time :S At least we learned a little about the history behind this through the controversy and had some interesting conversations here. But all in all, this show was worth neither the tantrum in Korea nor the buzz internationally
Didn't he promise that he's going to sing a song for her in earlier episode??
Maybe, I didn't watch everything. But still, how could she imagine something he never did. That could have been a meaningful scene, but they had just a few "romantic" scenes together. They didn't manifest that type of endig convincingly :(
I've been following the drama through clips since ep 9, so I'm sure there's a lot I've missed. But still, I feel that the ending could have been more impactful if both of them had died. I mean, what happens to Youngro in the end? Her mother, brother and now Sooho are dead (she'll at least get over Suhoo soon, cause come on, the romance build-up can't convince me that they were soulmates or destined or whatever). That leaves you questioning, what was the purpose of it all? What happens to Sooho's sister? He's been talking about his sister all the time, she was his number one purpose for doing this whole crap. I can't think of one satisfying thing about the ending. It's not even beautiful in a tagic way. She's all alone, having this weird imagination where he sings a song to her but I think she didn't even know he used to play the guitar? Cause yeah, we just didn't see the two interact that much and learn to know each other. Sorry, I'm just very disappointed. I don't mind sad endings, but I hate it when they're not impactful.
Yes, yes, and yes. I'm sad to agree with everything you listed here. This show just turned out to be a mess in…
I wonder if the writer had to change her initial script due to the controversy. Like you said, she worked on it for over 10 years! How could this be the final result :(
So, I've sadly been losing interest since ep 8 :( I think I'll stick to this comment section and to the clips posted on instagram to figure out how this will come an end. But all in all, I think this should have been a movie and not stretched out to a 16-ep drama with each episode being 90 minutes long...
The female lead is totally useless and unnecessary . She reminds me of the FL in K2. The drama can go ahead without…
Yeah Youngro doesn't contribute a lot but is written to be an emotional component to the actions of male characters (Sooho and her father). But then again, that's how women are unfortunately written in a lot of shows / movies. At least, you could say the male characters are a lot more one-dimensional compared to women like the hall director and Dr. Kang who are way better fleshed-out as characters. Overall, Snowdrop is an okayish drama and Jisoo is doing as the script says. Hope she'll shine more in her next project!
LOL the way they confidently say "the Squid Game universe has just begun" when we know a second season was never planned and only came up because the series was so madly successful. What a shame, I don't think it'll turn out to be a good idea. Korean dramas are almost never made with multiple seasons in mind. I'm sad because I feel that they are trying to adjust to western standards and that's what most fans of Asian dramas/cinema would like to catch a break from which is why we watch content from Asia in the first place. And for me, the single-season approach is one of the biggest strengths of Korean dramas. The pain of having to wait for further seasons only for the shows to take disappointing turns or get cancelled midway is why I don't watch American TV shows anymore. Oh well.
I'm currently at episode 8 and I'm very confused about one thing:
Why would the ruling party want all hostages to die along with the spies? I get that they would use this whole thing as a sensational event to make it look like they're trying their best to handle the situation. But why did Kang Moo say that people would vote for the ruling party if the students were to die? Wouldn't it make the ANSP look hella incompetent?
At least we learned a little about the history behind this through the controversy and had some interesting conversations here. But all in all, this show was worth neither the tantrum in Korea nor the buzz internationally
Hehe. K, bye.
