Jisoo embodies the character of Young-ro

The posters for both Jung Hae-in and Kim Ji-soo (Jisoo) showed the two characters’ rivaling personalities as their faces were placed over a black background radiating two different emotions. Actor Jung Hae-in plays the character of Lim Soo-ho and the teaser shows the actor’s anguished gaze with his head bowed as he is unable to face the camera due to his secret with the words, “A man aiming at her fate, Lim Soo-ho” on the poster. This teaser poster reflects the character’s inner conflicts and feelings of sadness that he feels all thanks to the fate he has been dealt with in the drama and fans are excited for Jung Hae-in’s take on such a character.

On the other hand, Jisoo plays the confident character of Eun Young-ro who shows her raw unfiltered emotions to fans with her sad eyes looking straight at fans. The poster has shards of broken glass that overlap with Jisoo’s face showing her inner turmoil combined with her innocent and loving face. To add a little more curiosity to the character, the words, “A woman aiming for love towards him, Eun Young-ro” are written describing Jisoo’s character in the show.

The production team of ‘Snowdrop’ reported that both Jung Hae-in and Jisoo created a perfect synergy by embodying the two characters in no time while shooting for the character posters. The K-drama ‘Snowdrop’ is a story of two desperate lovers Soo-ho (Jung Hae-in), a prestigious college student who runs into a female dormitory in a bloody mess, and Young-ro (Kim Ji-soo), a female college student who hides in the dorm and heals him in the midst of a crisis. The K-drama is set to broadcast on December 18 on the TV network, JTBC on their 10:30 pm KST (8:30 am ET) slot as well as internationally via Disney+.
