Snowdrop trailer gives us a look at the first Korean crime drama to hit Disney+

Prepare yourselves for a meet-cute with consequences, folks. Disney+ released the first trailer and key art for Snowdrop, a Korean drama with teeth. The Snowdrop trailer starts innocently enough with a star-crossed meetup in a sun-soaked newsstand. However, that mood does not last for long. Soon we’re introduced to a corrupt group of criminals looking to overthrow an election with violence.

Per Disney’s official press release:

Centered around the forbidden romance of a young couple, “Snowdrop” features Jisoo’s (BLACKPINK) debut-starring performance in a Korean drama that will take viewers on an emotional rollercoaster full of excitement, action, and romance. The series follows Eun Yeong-ro (Jisoo) as she goes against her family and her country to help the man she loves, while he (Jung Hae-In, “Tune In For Love,” “While You Were Sleeping”) puts everything on the line to save the only thing he loves more than his country, Yeong-ro.

When a blood-soaked man (Jung Hae-In) bursts into the dormitory of a women’s university in Seoul, Korea, Yeong-ro (Jisoo) will go against her better judgment and risk being expelled to hide the man from his attackers and tend to his wounds. Unbeknownst to Yeong-ro, the man has a harrowing secret that threatens to put her friends’ and family’s safety at risk, and the two young lovers will have to work together to overcome the obstacles.

Snowdrop was written by Yoo Hyun-mi and directed by Jo Hyun-tak, the duo behind 2018’s Sky Castle.

Oh, man. My partner is going to freak out when she learns that Disney+ is getting into the Korean drama business. I have got a sneaking suspicion that we’ll have all 16 episodes of Snowdrop in the bag before the end of this coming weekend. Bring on the forbidden romance, the back-stabbing, and subtitles. My body is ready.

What do you think of Disney’s Snowdrop trailer? Are you a fan of K-Drama? Are you curious to check out Jisoo’s acting chops?

All 16 episodes of Snowdrop are available to stream on Disney+ right now. Why not invite some drama into your life? Korean drama, that is.
