I finally finished Snowdrop and cried so much at the ending. This is exactly why I avoided it for so long — because I knew it was going to be tragic and heartbreaking. Lim Soo Ho really deserved better.

It had been on my PTW list since before it even started airing, but I couldn’t bring myself to watch it for years because of the bittersweet ending. I’ve never been a fan of heavy political plots, and this drama reminded me why. I really only came for the romance. Unfortunately, there weren’t many romantic moments, but the little we got was so precious. Jung Hae In and Jisoo’s chemistry was just superb, and those small bits of romance were enough to make my heart ache.

The acting across the cast was outstanding. Every performance was delivered so well that it pulled me deeper into the story. Still, I can’t help but wish the ending had been different, even just to give the leads a tiny chance to be happy together. Maybe that’s asking too much, but it’s what I hoped for.

Despite the heartbreak, I genuinely enjoyed watching Snowdrop. It even cost me some sleepless nights since I had to watch late after work, but it was worth every lost hour of sleep.
