Synopsis
"When Life Gives You Tangerines" follows the adventures of Ae-soon, "the remarkable rebel", and Gwan-sik, nicknamed "unyielding iron", through four vibrant seasons on Jeju Island. The series' Korean title pays homage to the Jeju dialect, translating to "thank you for your hard work", and reflects both the Jeju island setting and the unforgettable, heartfelt life stories of Ae-soon and Gwan-sik. Many are anticipating the coming together of actors Lee Ji-eun and Park Bo-gum, screenwriter Lim Sang-choon ("When the Camellia Blooms"), and director Kim Won-seok ("Misaeng: Incomplete Life", Signal). Lee Ji-eun ("My Mister", "Hotel Del Luna", "Broker", "Dream - 2020") takes on the lead role of Ae-soon, a determined rebel born and raised in Jeju who continuously defies her fate. Park Bo-gum ("Record of Youth", "Wonderland", "SEOBOK") plays Gwan-sik, a steadfast man who expresses himself through actions rather than words, facing life with unwavering diligence. The older versions of these characters are played by Moon So-ri ("Queenmaker", "Race") and Park Hae-joon ("The 8 Show", "The World of the Married").
