In both fiction and real life, the K-drama ‘Snowdrop’ has been a rollercoaster. It is Blackpink Jisoo’s first significant acting role, and it is set during South Korea’s democratic upheaval in the 1980s. Jung Hae-in, a melodrama favourite, was cast opposite her. It began with a flurry of controversy, as members of the public and activists chastised it for portraying the uprising and ties between North and South Korea in an inappropriate manner. However, it has finally come to a close with a high grade.
Netizens ultimately gave the Jisoo-starrer K-drama a chance after the court and the Blue House (South Korea’s presidential office) overruled the cancellation requests and lawsuits and granted their consent for the drama’s airing. They did much more, since devoted fans are now divided about the denouement, which occurred on January 30. The production opted to screen the final three ‘Snowdrop’ episodes in 48 hours, which made for an emotional weekend. Su-death, ho’s the NSA’s ramifications, Young-fate, ro’s and other issues have piqued the interest of fans.
Jung Hae-in portrays Su-ho, a North Korean spy who has reservations about his role when his team intends to assassinate him for obstructing their goals in ‘Snowdrop.’ Jisoo of Blackpink portrays student Young-ro, who misidentifies him as a student activist and keeps her hostage to protect his team. He chooses to go rogue, incurring the fury of his teammates as well as the NSA, which has teamed up with North Korea. Su-ho joins forces with the captives, his colleague, Doctor Kang, and NSA officer Gang-mu to derail North Korea’s political goals.
It has been determined that the North wants to murder its agents in order to sabotage the operation, but the South wants to kill all of the student captives in order to get sympathy votes and therefore win the next election. The South is willing to pay the North $300 million in exchange. In Episode 15, it appears that Su-plan ho’s is succeeding, as Doctor Kang receives the money, returns to the nation with his friends, and assists the captives in escaping without being killed by the NSA.
