This is what "Something in the rain" should have been
A lot of people draw comparisons of "Something in the rain" with "One spring night", and they'd be right to say that these stories are similar, and they'd be right, both the dramas are very similar. The cast are largely same, and the use of similar soundtracks and the pacing of both dramas give them a similar air, but they're different enough that you will gain something different from both.
The fact that the leads in One spring night are handling the problems that they face with mutual respect and with the understanding that both of them are adults and capable of taking care of themselves is quite refreshing. In most dramas, and especially in "Something in..." the relationship dynamic is such that both people are trying to protect the other and this feeds in to the toxic narrative that one should always sacrifice themselves for the other in a romantic relationship for it to be "real".
Apart from this difference in dynamic much of the issues that the drama deals with are different. Of course there is overlap in how families and social standing are involved in romantic relationships between two people, but most of the other topics the drama touches upon differ in either content or execution.
The soundtrack for this Drama is absolutely beautiful, and compliments the scenes perfectly, the production value is good, and the acting is impeccable. So if you want to see a drama which will pull at your heartstrings without frustrating you with the actions of the leads, this is the one you're looking for!
