During the Snowstorm (2024)

Disappointing for me.(:

You know that feeling when, after watching a series, you regret that you started watching it? So this is exactly my case. I'm quite surprised how many people love it and how highly rated it is online. It was too slow and boring. Chemistry of the main characters nothing-much. Wrong choice of the main actress. I find her so childish, emotionally immature! The series suffers from many boring parts, individual episodes could have been cut into the usual half-hour pieces. Somewhere after the eleventh episode, I simply gave up on the series. I'm sorry, I don't like to write bad reviews and I usually try to cover it up but....

Good chemistry simple plot

This is a show that you should watch when you have nothing to watch in particular. You can just do your other chores while watching it in background. It is slowburn but pleasing especially in the beginning. There are all the normal tropes like family drama, sizzling chemistry, beautiful cast, foreign location, good score...yet it lacks in storyline. You will feel it after sometime. In the beginning you will be in trance the way FL and ML interact and believe me it is pretty real. Every little interaction, those subtle fidgeting moves and talking through eyes will definitely melt your heart but that is all. What lacked for me- I do not really connect with this sport (snooker/billiards ) first of all. For me it is a rich people's game like golf and I just don't feel any sports vibe from it. There is no adrenaline that you usually feel in this genre. Plus side cast is as usual pretty bland. They are there so that they can play the cupid for main lead. I was especially irked with FL's brother the way he was so obsessed with ML especially in the beginning, if they had put a bl tag I would have totally believed his actions in that way. Let me tell you NO BROTHER in this world would behave like that the way he was behaving. He was literally forcing the ship between his sis and ML. Anyway, you can give it a go to see the chemistry, or if you are the fans of main leads or just to enjoy beautiful location of Finland. There is nothing amazing or boring about it. It is a simple romantic drama with a touch of sports genre.

A graciosidade da história.

Não costumo resenhar as series que assisto, mas essa aqui fiz questão de deixar meu ponto de vista. Aqui nós temos um enredo clichês, aquele famoso amor à primeira vista. Às vezes, não acredito muito nesse evento, mas o Lin demonstrou que esse tipo de amor existe . Havia amor nos olhos dele . A maneira como ele foi tocado pelo amor, estava em cada expressão. No sorriso contido, no franzir das sobrancelhas, no sorriso com os olhos. Acho que uma boa parte do sucesso dessa série está na personificação do Leo Wu como Lin . Guo foi "feita" na medida. Nem muito ingênua (odeio quando colocam as mulheres como sendo idiotas), nem infantilizadas e nem exagerada. Ela era perfeita!
E quem imaginaria que a neve combinaria tanto com sinuca? Eu amei essa combinação. Outro ponto para destacar está no enredo sem "ex" chatas, sem famílias possessivas e controladoras, sem questões machistas, sem amigas traiçoeiras, sem vilões desnecessários. Em Amidst a Showstorm of Love o único vilão (se é que teve algum) foi o orgulho ferido. No entanto, quando Lin enxergou como sua vida era vazia ele percebeu que havia esperança para si mesmo. E eu amei essa evolução do personagem. No mundo em que vivemos hoje, uma história como Amidst a Snowstorm of love nos deixa com a sensação de que tudo ficará bem.
Por isso, recomendo muito essa série. Ela é leve, romântica, graciosa e aconchegante. Você assiste sorrindo durante os 45 minutos de cada episódio, desejando fazer parte das duas cidades Bei e a do Lin,

O que senti falta, foi conhecer um pouco mais do romance do primo da Guo. Ficou claro que eles ainda sentiam algo um pelo outro, mas entendo que o casal principal eram os mais importantes.

BEST CHINESE MODERN ROMANCE DRAMA!!!

I have watch Chinese modern romance drama, but this is the BEST. From the actors/actress, story line, acting and the beautiful places. A drama worth watching again and again.

Leo acting is superb, his love for Mai, I can feel it while watching it. The way Leo look, kiss, hug & take care of Mai, is every girls dream from a guy. LEO IS A GREEN FLAG.

After watching the first episode, I was already hook and can’t wait for the next episode. A breath of fresh air from common Chinese and Korean drama.

There is no typical 2nd lead actress that would fight for Leo’s love to Mai.

Highly recommended drama. I can watch it all over again.

Please another Leo & Mai modern drama. More kisses, joke!!!

Love and Shine no matter how the snow is falling!

One of the best dramas of this year. This drama really brought back the sweet memories of our own relationship beginnings and a lot of us wished to go back to our younger days when we experienced this.
Love and shine no matter how the snow is falling is a great anthem for this drama. Very refreshing and beautiful story. The leads were wonderful but Leo Wu was fantastic as Lin Yi Yang, a layered deep character with a hint of darkness. He pretty much drove this story.
I also really loved Zhao Jinmai’s portrayal of Yin Guo as the innocent, protected girl but yet independent and determined. The music and the production was very beautiful. I don’t have anything negative to say about this drama.
The thing that struck me the most was how refreshingly normal this relationship was the ML and FL were equals, did what they loved and showed their love for each other in a very honest way. They both nurtured each other and grew through the relationship. LYY finding his direction and his way back to snooker was very well done.
Even the friendship between LYY, MXD and JY was done well and really cracked me up. MXD was the funniest of the lot of-course.

The First Chinese Drama I Rated Perfect Stars

Role's Character - All the actors play their roles well. Personally, I like the character Xiaodong here. In the first 5 episodes, I thought he would strongly oppose his sister's relationship with the main lead. But unexpectedly, Xiaodong's character actually has a significant role in the development of the main relationship.

Sports - They took the sport theme seriously. The author embeds many details related to Billiards so that viewers can enjoy the sports aspect of this series. People who are not familiar with billiards will be enthusiastic to learn about this sport. For instance, we realize that the author has an additional goal of raising public awareness about this underrated sport that hasn't gained much popularity. Since watching this, I've started looking into billiards, such as the basic rules during matches and the playing techniques.

Romance Development - I love how there's no unnecessary love-conflicts in the main role's romance development. Where you used to waatch series with triangle-love, unrequited love, couple that still lingered in their gloomy past, family conflict, extreme parental opposition, etc. Istead, this series shows so much green light vibes that make audience enjoy the watch. No stressful feeling is what i like the most about this series.

On-going relationship - The story is beautifully written by the author and neatly executed by the producers. There are tiny details that related to our real life. sleepcall & making a private account/second account to confide about love-life is something that we often to do in real life when we have a crush and lowkey want to talk about them in your private account. You couldn't find much about this detail in other series i bet.

Musics - I'm not too concerned with the songs in this series. However, there are some background music and instrumental tracks that are very pleasant to listen to and soothing to the heart.

This show should be entitled, 'Leo Wu Being Ridiculously Romantic For 30 Episodes'

I don't have many complaints except the title doesn't do justice to the actual content of the show. This show is really just Leo Wu's character being ridiculously romantic and dreamy-eyed for 30 episodes. Yes, there was also a compelling, cohesive story/plot. Also yes, everyone else / the rest of the cast did a great job, the direction was great, the cinematography was great, the script/dialogue was REALLY great. Overall, great show.

The first 5 episodes, as others have mentioned, are a bit slow. Episodes 6-14 pick up the pace regarding the romance. Romance is the story, so billiards and pool as the background canvas for the story felt secondary but not an afterthought. It was executed well and I learned a bit about the sport.

But everything was a far, far second place to Leo Wu wooing the FML. If you enjoy romance as the main story, this one is your absolute best bet for 2024 (so far)

Perfect

As I mentioned in the previous post:
I met Zhao Jin Mai (Yin Guo) in A Little Thing Called First Love (2019) and her work was incredible.
If she had a 1st ML like Leo Wu (Lin Yi Yang) at that time it would be great, even though they couldn't have kissing scenes.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
Now I will comment on the show: The worst show of 2024!
Why?
Only 30 episodes: OMG! That's not fair.
I watched episode 30 in 5 days to make it take longer to finish.
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------
This is the perfect Show, it should have 100 episodes.
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------
Hidden Love (2023) has been won.
-------------------------------------------------- -
I'm scared that watching another show will destroy my peace.
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --
Datasheet:
Rational
Dynamic
No clichés
Love triangle only on paper
rational mother and father
--------------------------------
I ask:
Drama Writers, Directors and Financiers. Why not create more intelligent works like this?
After watching this show and encountering those stupid, ridiculous and annoying things that assault the brain it's unfortunate when we encounter that type, or when everything is fine and they destroy everything.
-------------------------------------------------- ------
There is not enough praise for the acting of Zhao Jin Mai (Yin Guo) and Leo Wu (Lin Yi Yang).
I don't know if the word CHEMISTRY is enough for them.
-------------------------------
The clues against Lin Yi Yang: All false, because it was all very rational. We are used to crazy dramas where everyone is against the 1st ML.
Father
Mother
Brother
Puppy
Cat
-----------------------------
Thank you very much and congratulations!

8.6? You guys are messing with me!
