In this rendition of Snow White, social media is the "poisoned apple" in the form of cyber bullying. Where Cinderella covered socioeconomic inequality, Snow White covers beauty standards, social media and bullying.

Very strong first half followed by a weaker second half that all gets quickly resolved in the end. Like the lightbulb suddenly goes off in everyone's head in the last episode. I felt like the progression towards the resolution could have benefited from being more gradual. But it was like drama, drama, drama to all suddenly, be resolved in the end.

But I stuck with this because Snow is a great character (sometimes too selfless to a fault), the godmothers and the characters who weren't influenced by gossip and social media.

The reason the antagonist was out to destroy the FL's life -- I actually like and endears me to her, but there weren't enough scenes to support it. The writers were too focused on trying to mislead and throw off viewers but ended up veering too far off in the wrong direction instead. It's unfortunate because I think many people who has ever been in the situation Beauty has been in could understand and sympathize with her, but again, they went too far off in the wrong direction with her story arc for most of the story.

Plu's manager had the best character development. I was not expecting his romance arc, and it was a welcome development and reprieve from all the drama lol.

This is the first time I've seen the actresses who play Snow and Beauty, and they both did a wonderful job. I look forward to seeing their future works.

I appreciate the social issues that the story tackles and hope that it raises awareness about being more conscious and responsible for the things that we put out on social media and how it could affect others.
