I just needed to come on here & say I finally got my copies of the scripts with the Q&A from the writer & my theories were all right and I couldn't be more freaking pleased. literally running to a family memeber who also watched the show & reading the responses out loud in victory.

the trolls came out after the drama ended because they didn't like that it had a high rating. go into the discussions or if your up to it keep scrolling until you hit the as it was airing comments. I never ended up writing an in-depth review as I had pretty much written multiple essays and thesis on the show. it is extremely worth it if you like kdramas. if you ever get lost I broke down a complete timeline with some details as to the references made in the past timelines. at the very least watch the first 2 episodes and decide from there whether to continue.

she simply was in his hunting/dumping ground at the wrong moment. then she became a witness. the motive never mattered as Kim Young Soo never really mattered. he was just a catalyst for the love story of Sun Jae & Sol. they chose to save the life of someone else even at the risk of their own life. this is a romance, not a murder mystery. the victims are who are important when a crime is committed..."the killer is just a social misfit & loser, not a monster to be afraid of."

So I just finished. I was taking my time with the last three episodes because I just didn't want the story to end. It was so good and they kept up the cinematography and overall vibe throughout the show which is impressive. I do wonder if they will be producing a season 2 with the same cast in the future. Small spoiler....it's very open ended and there are many stories that have no conclusion. I don't know how long sequels usually take, but with the production team and half of this cast working on a different project together I figure it will be some time before they start for a season 2. With the lead actors being as booked and busy as they are, is there actually any hope that they will come back to finish out their characters' stories?

Watching this drama I could immediately tell it was made by the same team behind 'The Eternal Love' and 'The Love by Hypnotic'.(the ost was my first clue) They use the exact same locations and props from those two dramas as well as some of the wardrobe being reused for secondary characters.
The plot is also extremely similar to TEL. Sister of the FL in love with the bad guy who is the elder brother of the ML who are princes. The actor playing the Emperor is the same in all three dramas. Younger prince idolizes his middle brother and falls in love with someone close to the FL. ML is cold to everyone but the FL, and is thought to be heartless by others etc. Wise yet bumbling older man close to the FL. ML's illness can only be cured by FL. There are a few other similarities and I'm sure I've missed even more as it's been about 5ish years since I watched The Eternal Love.

Although I've enjoyed all three productions I can't help but to feel like the writer is very...one note. They pretty much just change minor things but overall outline and all the characters and their personalities stays the same. These productions also seem under staffed...I'm talking about background actors and supporting roles. It all feels very small...like the capital only has 100 people in it instead of multiple thousands. The Eternal Love was one of the first Cdramas I ever watched so I didn't notice it then, but after watching many more productions it is EXTREMELY clear that these were made on a much much lower budget than most period dramas.
So if you like the music and styling from The Eternal Love you'll enjoy this, but don't expect anything new. WXY was just a baby in this so he wasn't dubbing his own voice in post yet. Still a great performance, and I can see his growth as an actor even within just a few years.

Heads up if you haven't heard. This one starts airing this week.

I've just been going through the older comments to let ppl know cause this one has been in limbo for like 2-3 years and not everyone is checking the calendar tab

I've been scrolling through older comments and just sending out word, cause I realized a lot of people don't check the calendar tab weekly. Honestly, my favorite aspect of MLD is the calendar because of how random China is with release dates.

So glad I watched this without reading the comment section. I don't even remember why of all the shows on my TBW list I chose this one to watch on my days off, but I did....and I enjoyed it. It's not going to be for everyone, but it was a quick watch for me. If you're on the fence just watch it.

yeah. will love in spring was a really great drama. I still feel they fumbled in the final 2 episodes, but that's just a personal beef with the writers. the overall production was top tier. the whole vibe of the show was just..."it" ya know...
