Synopsis
In 1987, Im Soo Ho (Jung Hae In) and Eun Young Ro (Ji Soo) are students at a prestigious university in Seoul. Im Soo Ho, who grew up in Germany, has a gentle charm but gives off an air of secrecy. Eun Young Ro, who is lively, lovable, and cheerful, fell in love with him at first sight at a social gathering. One day, Soo Ho suddenly rushes into a female dormitory covered in blood, and Eun Young Ro hides him and tends to his wounds despite facing danger under close surveillance.
Among those monitoring, Soo Ho and Young Ro must avoid Pi Seung Hee (Yoon Se Ah), the notoriously strict and imposing housemother of Young Ro's dorm, and Kye Boon Ok (Kim Hye Yoon), a phone operator at the dorm who had to forgo a college education due to her family’s financial circumstances.
Lee Kang Moo (Jang Seung Jo) is the relentless head of Team 1 of the National Intelligence Service (NIS) and always insists on doing everything by the book. By contrast, NIS agent Jang Han Na is impulsive, hot-tempered, and passionate about her job.
Kang Chung Ya (Yoo In Na) is a beautiful and talented surgeon at a state-run hospital who can charm anyone in a split second. Although her skills in the operating room have earned her a solid reputation as a dependable surgeon, Dr. Kang is mysterious and appears to be hiding something.

tak sure lah sama ada Ji Soo Blackpink ni pandai berlakon ke tak...
nak tgk citer ni sebab dari director & writer SKY Castle...
lagi pun iols dah familiar dgn era tu...
era yg sama dgn apa yg dipaparkan dlm Youth of May...
salah satu faktor kenapa iols nak tgk citer ni sebab hasil buah tangan gabungan PD & writer SKY Castle...tgk pada barisan pelakon & tenaga kerja nampak mcm citer ni akan jadi lagi epik drpd Youth of May...lagipun iols memang suka cerita yg berlatar belakangkan the true historical event...cerita yg berdasarkan event yg berlaku dlm drama ni dah byk kali dipaparkan dlm bentuk filem e.g. A Taxi Driver, 1987: When the Day Comes, May 18 etc...tapi dlm bentuk drama series cuma Youth of May jelah setakat ni...

JTBC decide to continue walaupun byk bantahan…sebab cable channel beranilah buat decision camni…
JTBC’s statement:
This is JTBC’s statement regarding controversy about the drama “Snowdrop.”
Following the broadcast of “Snowdrop,” controversy is not dying down based on false information, so we are releasing a statement.
First of all, the background and motif for important incidents in “Snowdrop” are the time of military regime. With this background, it contains a fictional story of the party in power colluding with the North Korean government in order to maintain authority. “Snowdrop” is a creative work that shows the personal stories of individuals who were used and victimized by those in power.
There is no spy who leads the democratization movement in “Snowdrop.” The male and female leads were not shown as participating in or leading the democratization movement in episodes 1 and 2, and they do not do so in any part of the future script.
Most of the misunderstandings regarding concerns of “history distortion” and “disparaging the democratization movement” criticized by many people will be settled through the progress of the drama’s plot. The drama includes the production team’s intent of hoping for no repetition of an abnormal era in which individual freedom and happiness are oppressed by unjust power.
Although we unfortunately cannot reveal much of the plot ahead of each episode, we ask that you watch over the future progress of the plot.
In addition, in order to hear the valuable opinions regarding JTBC’s contents, we will listen to diverse voices by opening the portal site’s real-time chat window and the official viewers’ message board.
The main values that JTBC aims for are the freedom of content creation and independence of production. Based on this, JTBC will continue to contribute full effort into showcasing great broadcasts.

For me, memang boring sangat. So memang akan drop lah drama ni. Kalau ramai support pun maybe blin ...
Blinks lah yg beria2 support…gigih trendingkan kat twitter…for me I respect whatever decision they make…sebab backdrop citer ni guna peristiwa sejarah hitam diorg & kita sbg org luar takkan faham…umpamanya mcm gunakan ahli parti komunis malaya as a hero camtu kot…

Iols dah try tgk 1 episod…tak tau nak kata suka ke x…iols rasa yg buat dia jadi boring tu sebab terlalu byk watak yg kita sebagai org luar memang tak familiar dgn watak2 ni semua…walaupun diorg kata citer ni fiksyen semata2 but still it is based on true events cuma event sebenar berlaku tahun 1980 tapi dlm citer ni dia buat tahun 1987…kalau just based on episode 1, iols rasa youth of may give better impression to me…tapi tgk dulu camna since jtbc nak tayang 3 episod utk minggu ni to clear the confusion pasal watak yg jung hae in bawak ni…tapi koreans dah marah siap buat petition suruh tutup jtbc…
Pasal acting, oklah lakonan ji soo blh diterima, xdelah kayu sgt cuma ekspresi muka tu kena improve lagi (hehe kalau ada blink baca komen i ni jgn marah pulak)…pasal the rest of the casts iols xde komen since most of them are familiar…cuma jung hae in punya appearance x nmpk mcm tahun 80an tapi mcm org dari present time..,yg lain2 tu ok…
Iols x boleh tgk komen2 netizen sebab mostly datang dari bbnu peminat kpop yg xde sensitivity…
One Spring Night? yg dgn Han Ji Min tu kan? dlm citer tu dia jadi duda, so lain sikit...dlm citer ni tu yg iols cakap dia tak nampak mcm org dlm zaman 80an...at least tukarlah sikit penampilan tu...
uols dah tgk citer ni sampai epi berapa? iols nak habiskan 1 episod pun struggle
so tunggu dulu sama ada citer ni mampu survive sampai epi terakhir ke tak sebab byk sgt kontroversi...apa2 pun blh jadi...

Aiols dah masuk ep3 tapi nyampah sbb tgk kat disney plus tak berapa nk reliable, kalo tenet connection teruk terus jadi kabur muka so tak enjoy kikiki
Yaaa i ckp benda sama kat laki, gaya dia gaya modern utk watak di zaman 80an, mentang-mentang hero kan mmg kene pakai helok je.
Yes i yg ckp tu one spring night, tq for reminding. Dlm tu lakonan dia lagi honest nampak, mcm betul2 percaya dia suka kt han ji min tu at first encounter. Dlm cite ni walaupun jisoo tu comel tp tak npk chemistry dia dgn hae in
