Until I met you, amidst a snowstorm of love
Honestly I dislike long dramas, but this one, was too lovely, too fluffy, too precious to not finish. Every moment, every little thing shown was close to my heart and I felt it, every single time. I've seen people complain about Jinmai being shy around Leo even after dating for 2 yrs, but see, a person in love will know it better, if you love someone in a proper way, they'll make you feel flustered with a heart fluttering in your chest every day, they'll never cease to make you fall in love with them everyday. Skinship is not the only form of love and it's high time these new drama viewers accept that. For me, Yin Guo had the most realistic and relatable reactions to Yiyang's portrayal of love. Blushing and getting flustered everytime their hand touches, or shying away from PDA. That's what people in love for the first time do. Now, coming to Jiang Yang and Meng Xiaodong. My lord, they portrayed healthy sportsmanship like nobody else. Always feeling inferior to Yiyang's talent and vigour, Xiaodong never EVER let it come in between their friendship and brotherhood, and even after being nemesis with Jiang Yang, he didn't turn away when it was the matter of bringing Yiyang back to the field. They're by far the best examples of brotherhood in dramas. Then, Yin Guo's mom, Wu Qian, at first I thought that she'll be a bitchy mom like the rest but naah! She's the sort out and cool mom type. Really elevated my expectations. Every single character was chef's kiss, beautifully curated. 100% recommended.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Fantastic C drama
I absolutely loved this show. The two leads are terrific and their chemistry is so good I wondered if the actors would fall in love with each other!It's quite slow paced, which I like, and the production value is about as high as I'm ever seen in a C drama. It's really well done.
The only slight negative is the acting and dubbing of some of the Finnish characters, but all the Chinese cast are great.
Overall this is just a really sweet story of love and redemption. Highly recommended

WHY THE HELL THERE ARE ONLY 30 EPISODES?
Don't know where to start, Guys this drama is probably the best ever c-drama to be released in the year 2024!Don't ever miss this drama or you gonna regret it!Also this drama is not meant for the ones whom expects more engaging and crisp story or some revenge plot or two guys chasing after the girl or the vice versa or some business plot!
Eventhough it also involves sports plot, but it does not completely revolve around it!Infact it only acts a bridge for the lead pair!
Then, what can u expect from this drama?
1)FIRST AND FOREMOST IS UNDOUBTEDLY.........."HAPPY ENDING"!
2)NO ANNOYING SECOND LEADS CHASING AFTER THE MAIN LEAD COUPLES!
3)NOT JUST THE LEAD COUPLES BUT EVERY CHARACTER IN THIS DRAMA ARE GREEN FLAGS!SAY FOR e.g FL'S brother
4)CHEMISTRY BETWEEN THE LEAD COUPLES IS MIND BOGGLING
5)OFCOURSE CINEMATOGRAPHY AND OST ARE OFF THE CHARTS!
6)AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS "NO UNNECESSARY BREAKUP"
7)INFACT IN THE COMPLETE SERIES, THERE IS ONLY ONE MISUNDERSTANDING SCENE!BUT THE BEST PART IS IT IS RESOLVED MORE QUICKLY
Does that means it has no negatives?
1)Eventhough it is a sports related drama, after completing it only thing that strikes to me it is more of a romance genre!Director should have given much more importance to the sports plot!
2)Director should have given much more screenspace for the second lead couple!It doesn't mean the main lead couples are boring, however second lead couples story is yet to be finished!Probably Director may have other plans for the second lead pair!
3)PROBABLY THIS IS THE ONLY MAJOR NEGATIVE THAT MANY OF THE FELLOW REVIEWERS ALSO GONNA AGREE:
"WHY THE HELL THERE ARE ONLY 30 EPISODES? PROBABLY A FEW MORE EPISODES,
1)SO THAT SECOND LEAD COUPLES STORY MIGHT ALSO HAVE A BEAUTIFUL ENDING!
2)ALSO FINISING OFF THE SERIES WITH THE MARRIAGE OF MAIN COUPLES WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE APT THAN THE OFFICIAL SERIES ENDING!
..................................................................

BETTER GO FOR IT!DEFINITELY YOU GONNA ENJOY IT!

FRIENDS TO LOVERS TROPE??? THIS IS SURELY MINE!
This drama sets my standard so high in many different aspects. I know long ago that by heart, friends to lovers has always been my favorite trope. This drama did not just gave me that but it proves as well that it is indeed the sweetest way to fall in love. I do not know anything about billiards but watching this made me learn a few things. Of course it was not just about the sport, it is also about the friendship and love that I enjoyed a lot. What more can I say, except this is surely my top cdrama of all time. No other cdrama gave me the same butterflies in my stomach as this one. I love each episode of it. Happy start all the way to the ending, no unnecessary complications with their relationship, instead they just work their best to have a strong and lasting relationship. I truly enjoyed watching this. A good addiction if I might say.I COULD REWATCH THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN THEN REPEAT IT AGAIN

My fave quote or line from them
Lin Yi yang : I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry at all. —This line is really where a standard of mine to men began to form.
Yin Guo : You know, you know, how I love you so. — Dang, isn't it just so sweet.

sweet romance story
Amidst a Snowstorm of Love (2024) - 9/10 -cdramathis drama is somewhere between 8,5/9 at least for me I decided to give it 9. Its for example very alike by vibe and story to drama Love Me, Love My Voice (2023) but I liked Love me .... more.
Drama is full of cute and romantic scenes + friendship and sportmanship got big space here too.
picking pool/nineball/snooker etc as sport around which will this drama go was good and bad choice at once. Firstly its good since story-setting of washed of pro player, training and playing at pubs in foreign city is interesting and quite realistic. At other hand this sport isnt very entertaining for watchers. At least better than watching others play chess or such.
Male lead character is on more unique side and makes this drama quite enjoyable if I had to describe it he seems :tough on outside, tender on inside:. As for female lead character she is more inverted :cute/tender on outside and tough in inside:
plot- Former professional snooker genius ML met the popular nine-ball player FL on a rare snowstorm night in city of foreign country. ML fell for FL at first sight and decided to do all he can to pursue FL and make her his girlfriend. As wheel of fate is quite fickle he finds out that FL he fell for is sister of his former snooker rival.
genre - romance, sport

Love is evident from the beginning
I really like the progression of this slow love story. From the first time he saw her he has been smitten and slowly wanting to enter her world. First series ive watched that the ML fell hard first, as in eposide 1. Anyways, will probably post a progression review later on. We shall see.Their chemistry is so on point. The small gestures and the FL reactions are reminiscing of ones first love.
I also loce how thier both foodies.
OST so far is perfect! The acting, well its so good and convincing that made me watch on repeat after the 6th episode
Cant wait!

Not for me
Oh, this was not it. Everything that worked in “Love Me, Love My Voice” did not work here, I fear. This was not for me, and I feel like everyone was doing too much and nothing at all at the same time. Why does the male lead immediately care so much for a girl he doesn’t know? To the point that she literally moves in with him, like? Girl, he could be a freak, aren’t you scared of getting offed?? LYY was also just too intense for me. Bro loved looking at Yin Guo like this ?️??️, it made me uncomfortable??. When she put that band aid on his leg… I thought I was going to ? because why were they doing that much over a scratch?? I thought I could push through to get to their dating era, but the episodes just drag and drag – the leads just looking at each other wide-eyed, doing too much and yet nothing at all. It wasn’t for me, moving on to the next drama.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
It’s a big yes!
It’s official. I’ll definitely watch again. The story is so unique and the acting is great. The chemistry between the leads is definitely ??. The build up, communication, relationship and showmanship were amazing.The series revolves around more than just the leads but their community. When I say community I mean the people that share their common interest. What I enjoyed about the series is that it shows how friends can become family after spending so much time together. They all appear to be able to celebrate each other successes whether they were from the same club or not, and that to me spoke volumes. It was played in such a way that was very heartfelt and encouraging.
The relationship of the leads felt pure, genuine and swoon worthy. It just felt right.
I didn’t find one boring episode. The male need really knows how to intensify his expression and gazes.the supporting cast were all the best. No one fell short.
In summary you’ll get sweet romance, slight drama, good billiards scenes, heartfelt moments, laughter and more. Definitely a good one.

Not sugar free....
My daily overdose of sugar... i can´t watch it all time, otherwise it´s to much but, it´s incredibly sweet to see how you get closer day by day without mega sneaky tyrants and dramas....Even if i haven´t yet after watching to the end, i´m looking forward to the next episodes. I love seeing the ML in a non-historical role, it is and remains attractive and the FLalso fits wonderfully. The chemistry between the two is perfect.
Every now and then there are moments when you want to shake the ML in his less talkative way, but hey, somehow it´s completely taken from life and fits perfectly :)

Just perfect
This show was so good! the leads' chemistry, the story and the supporting characters....the romance, gahh the romance, was so good, but also the perfect balance of fun and entertaining! Even the sport scenes were perfectly melded with the story. It really was a no skip show ! A whole healthy, green forest relationship that DOESN'T boring down the line.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
