The first volume of Snow Drop was very melodramatic, but the second volume is much more humorous. While there is still a fair amount of meldodrama, it is more down-played. Possibly it is because we have been introduced to the main characters and their problems, so now we can better follow their escapades without having quite as much drama.

In this Volume, the relationship between Hae-gi and So-na is really starting to heat up. However, as soon as their relationship starts going So-na's over protective father comes back home from a business trip. Still, even though So-na has to be careful around her father, she is starting to feel that she can open up to Hae-gi, and that he's really not the monster she first thought him to be. As all of this is Happening, So-na's friend Ha Da is still chasing after Ko Mo, he still has'nt realized that Ko Mo is not a girl, nor has So-na or Hae-gi bothered to tell him.

One of my favorite things about Snow Drop is the drawings. I adore the art style, and the outrageous facial expressions the characters make, it is makes the comic hilarious despite the drama. Most of the time that is what will make you laugh, the facial expressions. At first the drawing style grated on my nerves because I was not used to the Korean drawing style, which is slightly different than the Japanese drawing style. However, once I adjusted to this drawing style I really began to enjoy it. It is a pleasant change from what I normally see the drawing in manga, the Korean style is usually a little sharper or more angular.

If like me, you might have been put off by the first volume, please pick up the second, it will not let you down! Volume 2 is much better, and there is romance in this volume, not an oversaturation, but enough. There is also plenty plenty of fighting between the characters that continues from the first volume. I am glad my feelings about Snow Drop were right, about improving after the first Volume.

God Bless & *enjoy* ~Amy
