Will Love In Spring has a nice mix of healing + sad, gets sadder later part of drama, talks about death...Yet is healing too.

Not sure yet, first 2 eps where kind of boring, yet not boring enough to drop, I'll continue the drama once I have more time (super busy with university, just casually wtaching a few dramas that are engaging enough but not amazing, as study breaks/energy boosters), so can't tell yet, usually first 2 eps still boring in most dramas anyway 😅

Great kissing scenes totally wasted on leads lacking chemistry 😅
Couldn't even enjoy the kiss scenes because they were still boring together.

How someone can kiss in such realistic sweet way and still lack chemistry wtf 🤣
Oh well.

Also boring middle part.
Enjoyable eps 1-8. Ok eps 14-16

7.5-8.0/10.
It's a good one-time watch drama, but not really rewatching material.

I enjoyed the 2ndary pairing more, even though it's ridiculous for a human to date a ghost they can't even see 😂

Ep12 Beauty Inside parody 🤣😂

A suprising happy ending for Human&Ghost ship.

1+ year of dating and he's still there.
At least they got some time to enjoy.

"I am an exlploitaive boss"

Where are our irl ghosts doing this irl too, We need this. 😂🤣

No, it doesn't really show much of the dead people, very limited amount of that, it more TALKS about death, dying and living.

Yeah I also really like when romance gets combined with mystery genre. 😍 They mesh well.
Healer, Vincenzo, Happiness....some of the best.
Hopefully this will be too....

I like how they picked more unusual last names here,
Bok and Do,
and not the highly common surnames of Lee, Park, Kim, Choi, Song that like 90% of koreans have... 😅

I partly agree with you.
LATER ON, AFTER she just suddenly abandoned him (🤦‍♀️), it was good that SHE was the one who in the end made the compromise.

But what I'm talking about when I speak of his stubborness is more about his behavioirs at start and middle of drama, during this ONLY FL got hates by viewers for "wanting to run away to the city, Being uncommital flakey etc.", when they BOTH we're uncommital and stubborn😅🤦‍♀️ Just because one is physically wanting to leave, and the other's uncommitment means STAYING STILL where they already are, didn't mean that BOTH weren't running away, they were. And ONLY the woman got heat for that, that's misogyny and expectations that ONLY the Woman needs to make the sacrifice.

In the end they ended it well with FL staying in their hometown after abandoning him, I do think in this case she needed to be the one compromising, to prove that she had changed.

My issue is the assumption many seem to have about women being the ones who needs to sacrifice their careers and lifestyles, now THAT is problematic and needs to be called out. Generally BOTH parties should make compromises.

✌️✌️

Overall the drama did a really good job writing a realistic take on people's lack of commitment at the start of a relationship,
there are too many unrealistic cringe romcoms about insta-love and insta-commitment and "drop all for love", that's not true to life at all.
Also it was good that they didn't make FL abandon her career for marriage, especially when because of her disability she had ambitions to prove herself, they did well in writing an ending of her keeping her career while compromising at the same time.

Lol
we are strangers which explains why you misunderstood everything I've said.

I don't hate men, I only hate PROBLEMATIC men, and men and women who defend them. This site (& kdrama fandom overall) has quite an issue with women going "myyy oppaaaaaaa can do nooooo wroooooonggg!!".

Irl I get on better with men overall than women who are cringe gossips 😅, I grew up amongst brothers and work in male-dominant field.

Also you must be young, to be so naive over "rape cases Dropped", just because someone was not sentened in court doesn't mean they're "proven innocent", just google the statistics on how many rape cases go unreportted, fail to get a a conviction even when multiple women accuse a man. One famous example comes to mind: Ed Westwick.
Judges will literary drop rape cases, not becaus ethe defendant is "innocent". One exampel article:
https://www.uml.edu/News/stories/2019/Sexual_Assault_Research.aspx

Also it's even worse in korea, where the judicial system is corrupt and influenced by money and powerful families.

MDL is filled with people from all over the world, if my takes on equality and not accepting problemtic man behavioirs and internalized misogyny by girls on this site, seem extreme, perhaps this is a cultural crash, as I come from one of the most liberal/progressive cultures where this calling out of men is normal and not extreme at all.

On the other hand, there are too many young girls on this site defending their oppaaaaa...

Yeah I kind of agree with you there,
what I mean is, they acted like Nanpin was the only place where he could ever work, as if death doesn't happen in every village/city/place in the world. 😅 A successful skilled guy like this could've easily gotten another funeral makeup artist job anywhere, a job which most people are unwilling to do, so low competition.....
It all made the ML look too stubborn about staying FOR NO REASON lol,

especially since he wasn't even shown to have any type of nostalgia emotional attachment to the hometown (other than to high school memories with FL😂) or any dislike of the city, just stubbornly staying out of loyalty for other people.
Compare with his grandma who was shown to have an emotional attachment to the town itself.
If there was no "mission", this ML would'n't have given one damn over hometown vs city lol.


But anyway, I AM STILL HAPPY it ended with FL choosing their hometown, ONLY BECAUSE I don't think her reputation with viewers could've taken ML being the one having to compromise lol.😅 People already hated on her enough, while forgetting ML's flaws.

Also I'm relieved they didn't write some dumb ending with FL totally giving up her career to get married with ML 😅
She deserved to "prove herself" like she wanted as a Disabled woman with a harder life.

It's so unfair though how many viewers kept complaining over FL wishing to leave for the city, WHILE OVERLOOKING and NEVER ONCE Critizising ML for being to stubborn about staying in their hometown!!! 😡


Also aparantly this drama got some Tourism award so you're probably right about the propaganda part lol.


Allthough The novel it's based on ended same way with FL leaving without telling ML and afterward she was the one who compromised and moved to their hometown.
Not sure if novel also is Propaganda, but likely they saw the novel ending as perfect for using as their propaganda on TV. 😅😂 (A translation of the novel's ending was posted here in the comments section before under a spoiler tag, this was during airing before anyone knew how the drama would end.)

They both still wore their engagement rings even during & after the 6 months separation.😍
With neither one commenting or upset over this fact, even though ML swore at her to take it off before when she left lol.

So we'll just have to assume that they eventually got married. 😅

Perhaps right after FL got her business more going and succesful in Nanping (&online? seemed quite location independent?). ? 🤔

btw Maybe you should put your comment into Spoiler tag,

"death scare in ep21" and "them getting together in the end" is very spoilery for those who haven't watched ep21! 😅

....into their hometown.

But here's the thing, it was ON THE SIDELINES, while ep 18 was just "death death death!" and nothing else lol,
ep19-21 had other stories going and they were more in focus with only a side of death, mainly ep 19-21 was finishing the lead couple's story and setting up FL's entrepreunership ventures into ____(spoiler)

Even I who normally liked the deep talks thought that ep 18 went overboard, the whole ep was basically just a lecture on life & death 😅 Did they ever do anything else that ep? I don't recall...

THANKFULLY ep 19-21 didn't deal with that anymore.

Whenever I rewatch this drama, just going to skip ep 18 😅😂

Actors often take home some props post-filming as mementos,
saw from her fan accounts on X that ZYT took home that Tree statue gift and is keeping it in her room 🤗 Nice choice! I would've chosen that too.

I generally prefer korean and japanese actors, don't really find any of the chinese actors attractive in the slightest, except Li Xian.

This guy is just 😍!

Also he seems very good at picking projects.
