White Christmas (Korean화이트 크리스마스; RRHwaiteu Keuriseumaseu) is a 2011 South Korean television series starring Kim Sang-kyung, Baek Sung-hyun, and a cast of then-rookie actors, namely Kim Young-kwang, Lee Soo-hyuk, Kwak Jung-wook, Hong Jong-hyun, Esom, Kim Woo-bin, Sung Joon, Jung Suk-won, and Lee El.[1] Written by Park Yeon-seon and directed by Kim Yong-soo,[2] it aired as part of the Drama Special Series on KBS2 from January 30 to March 20, 2011 on Sundays at 23:15 for 8 episodes.

A series of deaths, including murder and suicide, take place over eight days in a private, elite high school deep in the mountains, with the students cut off from the outside world and in highly volatile and unstable emotional conditions. The drama deals with the question of whether evil is organic or environmental, and the potential for adolescents to be extremely empathetic as well as equally cruel.[3]
