Mark your calendars and get ready for a whirlwind of romance, mystery and action.
Set against the backdrop of the political unrest that was swept across the Korean Peninsula in 1987, the 16-part series period drama stars Jung Hae-in and Blackpink's Jisoo, who makes her acting debut in this Korean Drama.
Amid the democratic uprising – otherwise known as the June Democratic Struggle, Eun Yeong-ro (Jisoo) falls for a blood-soaked man (Jung-Hae-In) who bursts into the dormitory of her women's university in Seoul. Unaware that man holds a harrowing secret that could endanger her friends and family, Yeong-ro risks expulsion to tend to his wounds and hide him from his attackers.
Viewers can expect an emotional rollercoaster full of action, emotion and romance as they follow the young lovers through the various obstacles they will have to persevere through together. Yeong-ro will go against her family and country to help the man she loves and the mysterious, while the wounded man will put everything on the line to save the one thing he loves more than his country.
Announced in October as part of the Walt Disney Company's APAC Content Showcase, 'Snowdrop' will debut on the 18th of December, on Disney+, for audiences across Asia.
