I'm traumatized but in a good way?
I am writing this review as I'm finishing the last episode. I have so many thing to say about this show. I will not lie, when I first saw the cover on disney+ I thought it would be a small romance about a young couple in the 90/ early 2000. I did not expect to finish it completely traumatized xD I have mostly watched happy ending kdrama but I really like to watch some with somehow sad ending cause it brings me back to reality. Not everything as an happy ending.
STORY:
I give the storyline a serious 10/10 The story wasn't the most predictable thing which I really like. Something that is overly predictable becomes boring at some point along the way and just makes me want to drop the show but the storyline in Snowdrop was amazing. The plot twist every now and then and the new events happening. At first, I thought it was a little overwhelming knowing my history of watching shows with an overly predictable story, but I got used to it and it became pleasant. I was getting more and more into the story and there was moment where I had to stop and rethink or just gasped because i simply couldn't believe what was happening (Like when the northern spy wasn't Ms. Ho but the janitor) The story on it's own was magnificent and probably one of the best one I have seen so far. I did not expect that when I started it but it was a literal masterpiece.
ACTING:
I won't really talk about the cast because I don't really know who could have replaced who but I will gladly talk about the acting. I give the acting a big 9.5/10 not 10 cause I know there was some moment that the acting for me just wasn't ''enough''. But that doesn't mean it was a good one. I unfortunately can't cry, but if I could, I would have balled my eyes out. I mean it, this show is cute, as a lot of acting but is really sad. The action the actors takes and how much effort they put in it just make the show 20 times better. The acting the actors gave was impressive to say the least. To the joy to the tears passing by the anger it was pretty impressive. You could clearly tell what feeling was happening and they transmitted it pretty well to the watcher. You could clearly feel the emotions and I won't lie I could barely get out of my seat during the show (I went been going to sleep at 2 am for this show (my dumbass also decided to start it at 10pm)) From the start to the end there was no moment where we didn't feel something. At least, there was no moment for me.
MUSIC:
I won't lie, I give it a 8/10 only. I could have giving it a 9 but there was one song that kept repeating itself and at the end but the sound effect all along the show was actually a real pleasure for the ears. Always the right sound effect depending on the scene. I don't have a lot to say about the musc I don't have any complaint aboutit.
REWATCH VALUE:
This show might have traumatized me a lot, I would rewatch it every day. Literally. I was obsessed with My name, Sisyphus and Not me recently and Snowdrop is joining them for sure. I'll probably rewatch it about 3 times just to make sure I got every single detail of the show that I might have missed.
That is all for me, but sincerely if you haven't watch it, please do. And if you dropped it, please restart it. it might seem long at the start but i swear it gets a lot better!!
With love
