Great characters with a feeling of emotional depth. I never quite figured out the meaning of the title, as snow didn't seem to feature as a main plot device, but it may be a reference to the northern location of the kingdom. I watched an English sub version on YouTube.
A slow build up in the story makes this feel like a novel unfolding.
The bonds between the family members, political strategies and martial arts prowess are strands that are woven together in a way that is compelling but lightened by humorous moments too.
The end of season 1 left me curious to see how the characters lives will develop, as I wonder who will prosper and what else they will learn from their experiences. I would happily watch another season.
