We propose a systematic approach of analysing the complex structure of time-periodic solutions to the cubic wave equation on interval with Dirichlet boundary conditions first reported in arXiv:2407.16507. Our results complement previous rigorous existence proofs and suggest that solutions exist for any frequency, however, they may be arbitrarily large.
