K-drama review: Snowdrop – starring Blackpink’s Jisoo, Disney+’s disastrous historical romance awkwardly mixes Shakespeare and politics
- The historical romantic drama revolves around sensitive political protests in 1987, but the show’s terrible scripting and weak lead performances let it down badly
- Jisoo and Jung Hae-in don’t convince in the lead roles, although they’re handicapped by weak characterisations, ponderous dialogue and baffling motivations
