Is The Early Spring based on a book?
Yes, the television series The Early Spring is based on the popular web novel, 早春晴/Zao Chun Qing Lang (A Clear Early Spring Day) by Gu Niang Bie Ku.
How does The Early Spring end for Flora and Luke?
After a lot of ups and downs and tears on both sides, Luke and Flora finally get their happy ending when Luke proposes to Flora in front of their family and friends.
Why did Shang Zhitao leave Lime Advertising in the first place?
Flora decides to resign after she is passed up for a promotion in favor of a junior associate who brought in a multimillion dollar client though it was well known that she did not achieve this on her own merit but through her family connections. Compound that with six years or corporate pressure, her own insecurities, dealing with the aftermath of her best friend’s suicide, and friction (romantic and workplace) with her boss while trying to maintain a secret workplace romance, ultimately proved to be too much for Flora in the end.
How does Luke come to work for Flora in Harbin?
After Flora quits Lime, she cuts all ties in Beijing and retreats back to her hometown of Harbin to lick her wounds. Eventually, she purchases a home there and opens up an event management business. Luke, remorseful about their breakup, travels back and forth from Beijing to Harbin whenever he misses her, roaming the streets and even visiting her parents’ restaurant. As her business struggles to gain clients, Luke uses his industry contacts to help her, but makes sure there’s no trace of his assistance. He eventually cross paths with her in the course of business but instead of his usual domineering, harsh attitude, he approaches her with patience and understanding. He ultimately makes her an offer she can’t refuse. Hire him as her driver, assistant, gopher, whatever she needs, free of charge for six months and he’ll stay in Harbin for stretches of time to do the job.
The Early Spring ending explained: The meaning behind the pop-up museum
In the finale of The Early Spring, the “Museum of Time and Eternity” sets the stage for Luke’s marriage proposal to Flora, symbolizing milestones in their history together and the emotional growth both have achieved over the course of their relationship. Luke gifts Flora a necklace with an “L” typewriter key as the pendant – the same key Flora recovered after she knocked Luke’s manual typewriter off his desk during their first meeting.
Luke declares his love and proposes to Flora at the end of the walk through the museum, in front of their family and friends with Luke the Dog as the messenger.
Does Flora accept Luke’s proposal?
Yes! Flora says, “Yes!” The two eventually move back to Beijing where Flora opens up a satellite office of her business there and the two commute back and forth from Harbin and Beijing.
How does The Early Spring show ending compare to the novel?
The novel takes its time getting to the proposal, spending several chapters relaying the emotional growth both have gone through. The finale in the television series is a bit rushed. It seems to happen over the span of a few months. In the book, his non-courtship takes place over a year or so. In the book, Luke is much more abrasive and toxic while in the series, his character has been softened to more of a romantic lead and “green flag.”
Will there be a The Early Spring Season 2 on Netflix?
Unlikely. The Early Spring was a single book and not a series. There is a second book, Miss Talkative, that follows the opposites attract romance between Lumi (Yezi Zhang) and Will (Chang Liu), so there’s definitely enough fodder there for a spinoff series.
