"Snowfall" is an enchanting drama that follows the life of a vampire who's over a century years old. A vampire who has been searching for his younger brother for more than a century. Shen Zhi Heng is a vampire who wants to become human, he's someone who consider his immortality as an illness, a disease. So, he wants to find his brother who is also a vampire, maybe he has a way to cure what he refers to as a disease. Aside from being a vampire, Shen Zhi Heng is also a media tycoon, he owns a media company (Haidong Daily). Haidong Daily is a media company that is impartial, it enlightens the people about what's going on in Haidong. While other companies are afraid of the development committee and doesn't dare to write anything about them, contradicting them. Haidong Daily is different, but it's the righteousness of Haidong Daily, or should I say Shen Zhi Heng's that led him to offending the Haidong Army and development committee?

Since they couldn't woo him to their side, they decided to kill him. But Shen Zhi Heng not being an ordinary person managed to survive. However, his life was hanging by a thread, so he hid in an an abandoned house. As fate would have it, A blind girl (Mi Lan) who wants to end her life because she's tired of living from her mother's abuses everyday ended up in that apartment. As she's about to end her life, she heard the voice of Shen Zhi Heng who wants to survive. One is being chased and wants to live, while the other wants to end her life because she's tired of living. When the two meet, Shen Zhi Heng asked her to save her, and live up until he was able to save him. Hearing this, Mi Lan who wanted to end her life somehow decided to stay alive. After that incident, their fate became more and more intertwined.


What I love about this drama is not just because it's a vampire story. I love the humane character of the ML and how eloquent he is. Although he isn't human, he hates killing. He doesn't kill unless he is backed into a corner. He has a human heart despite the fact that he's a vampire. "Killing is not my principle. If violence could solve problems, why would I stick to my principles?" That's who Shen Zhi Heng is. When he was asked this question, "You have so much power, you could have taken the opportunity and done as you wish. Why are you waiting patiently?" He answered with "I chose this path. I only have one principle in life. As a human, you can cultivate, or help others. You can be like water. Keeping your goodness in the darkest abyss, and you won't be blamed." That's just who Shen Zhi Heng is. I also loved how he described "Red". "Red is the passionate fire, warm light, boiling blood, desire, hope, and the color of growth." How can I not like such an eloquent ML who's the epitome of kindness? To be honest, Shen Zhi Heng, this character is the main reason I'm giving this drama this rating. But of course, I love the character of Mi Lan too. Although she's blind, she helped Shen Zhi Heng a lot. I love the care they have towards each other, or should I refer to it as "love"? Vengo Gao and Ouyang Nana, those two are indeed the right leads for this drama!

When I started this drama, I wasn't expecting romance, nor was I expecting much chemistry from the leads. However, surprisedly, Vengo Gao and Ouyang Nana had chemistry. Although it's not focused on romance, we still get a satisfying romance between the leads.
I won't say this is the best vampire drama there is, nor will I say this drama has no flaws. It has its flaws, and its ending is the perfect example of one of its flaws. However, there's no drama that's flawless, or perfect, is there? But, I can say this, Though the ending was very disappointing, "Snowfall" is still a captivating drama. Also, I'm not someone that looks for a flawless drama to watch, just as long as the acting is top tier and the story is captivating and engaging, I'll watch without having a second thought. Most importantly, as long as its qualities outweighs its flaws and the ending is a happy one, I'm satisfied. Though snowfall meets most of the requirements, but sadly, the ending isn't what I envisage.
Snowfall premise was alluring, but it's ending didn't meet my expectations.

Is this a drama I'd recommend? Of course, but I advice you not to judge the whole drama with its ending. Is this a drama that's worthwhile? Indeed, except the ending. "Snowfall is not what it seems, while watching this drama, you'll laugh and get sad. It's a drama that'll make you ride the waves of emotions.
In short, this is a drama that's worth your precious time. If not for the ending, this drama could have been a double digit drama for me. But it's not all bad. Hence, I decided to give it a rating of 8.5!
