Park Bo-gum’s New Drama Achieves Remarkable Success
The recently launched Netflix series, When Life Gives You Tangerines, which premiered on March 7, is striking a chord with viewers for its heartfelt portrayal of families shaped by the historical context of the 1950s. According to FlixPatrol, a global OTT ranking service, as of March 10, the show claimed the top position in Netflix’s TV category across ten countries, including Korea, Hong Kong, and Singapore, as highlighted by The Korea Times on March 11.
The drama is set to unfold across 16 episodes, covering a timeline from the 1960s to present day, focusing on three generations of women. Centered around the character Ae-soon (portrayed by IU), the narrative delves into the complexities of her life and those of her mother and daughter.
It poignantly illustrates the struggles faced by parents who endured the aftermath of the Korean War (1950–1953) while attempting to secure brighter futures for their children.
In the series, Park Bo-gum plays Gwan-sik, a devoted and hardworking individual who remains steadfastly loyal to Ae-soon. Though he possesses a strong exterior, his vulnerability in matters of love is evident, as he deeply empathizes with her joys and sorrows. As a silent guardian through life’s challenges, Gwan-sik epitomizes unwavering loyalty and love.
