So what happened to Min Na at the end of episode 1? Did she get kidnapped by Santa Claus? Or is she just her mom's imagination and the daughter actually doesn't exist?
I just finished the drama I have a doubt. What happened to him for 5yrs when he went back to save her and how…
Here's a good explanation from another member here which clearly explains (note that this is not from me) -- hope this can answer your questions.

No. He never died and he wasn't lost in the past. This is what happened :
- In the present (2024), Gwiju saved Dahae and Ina at the fire at Ina's school. - Just before the wall collapsed he time traveled to the past (2011) to the fire at Dahae's school and saved her. - Because Gwiju disappeared from the present, he is presumed dead and a funeral is held without a body. - Dahae gives birth to Nuri and for them five years pass (2029). - In 2029, Nuri summons Gwiju from 2011 just before the explosion at Dahae's school and saves his life. - Gwiju is reunited with his family in 2029, but he hasn't experienced a five year separation because for him it was one second he was at the fire, the next he was with his family.
There is character development for the FL. Actually, not only for the FL but for the rest of the "scammer" family…
Not only Ina knew, the grandmother knew as well after seeing a future scene when the FL crashed the wedding and admitted it, out of her "genuine" love to the ML. I think it was on ep 6.
Trust me, you'll love the direction of the story thereafter. :)
Nuri (the son)'s power is different from Gwiju (his father)'s.Gwiju's power is to be able to go back to a past…
I agree that the ending is a bit rushed (as per my other comments here). It doesn't give enough explanation so many viewers (myself included initially) were confused.

does the ML and his daughter ever reconcile and become close ?
Yes. The ML tried to rekindled his relationship with his daughter (going to the theme park together), it's very heartwarming watching those scenes, and I really cried in some of the scenes (thanks to Park So Yi's amazing acting performance).
That's of course before the drama's climax when the dad had to be gone from his daughter's life for 5 years (2024-2029) until he's being brought back by his son.
the ending is a bit iffy and it's missing some explanation if you ask me.....I mean I love a happy ending but…
Nuri (the son)'s power is different from Gwiju (his father)'s.
Gwiju's power is to be able to go back to a past timeline.
Nuri's power is not going back to the past, but he can "pluck" (or take out) something from the past and bring it to the present, without the need for him to go back to that past timeline.
Someone spoil it for me. Does FL get exposed and ML and his family get closer and live happily ever after without…
There is character development for the FL. Actually, not only for the FL but for the rest of the "scammer" family as well.
At the end, you will find the relationship between the members of the two families heartwarming.
Trust me, you wouldn't want the FL to get karma after watching the next episodes. :)
Overall -- the drama is very heartwarming, save for some "stupid" writing direction around ep 10 (i think?) and a felt-rushed and abrupt ending. But I would still say it's one of the best KDramas in 2024.
Have watched the first two episodes and I'm hooked. Some comments:
- Love how the story is being written, with unique storyline and fast-paced plot which keep us hooked. - Love the acting of both the main female leads, Jang Nara and Nam Jihyun. Also love Jang Nara's new shorter hair style, it's very refreshing! - Noted that this is another drama where Jang Nara portrays a character who got cheated by her husband (after My Happy Ending), lol. - Happy to see Yuna even for a short while (she seems to only have support/guest role in this drama unlike in The Kidnapping Day). Her character (the daughter) seems to be neglected by both her parents (workaholic mom and cheating dad).
Spoilers are welcome.
I love "Will Love in Spring" as well. :)
