Elivy Feb 23 2026 9:29 pm It scarred me and my wife in the very best way

a Feb 07 2026 7:22 pm This was indeed a masterpiece. Oh, how it made me feel. Thank you to everyone who helped create and tell this story.

Yougavemerosess Jan 07 2026 7:51 pm A true masterpiece. A poem of life. Even words cannot express how this kdrama made me feel. It is so beautiful written and all the actors did such an amazing job! It made me feel so many emotions. I had a good cry while watching. I was sobbing literally even at the thought of it. It is slow paced, so do not drop it if you find it not engaging enough. The story will gradually unfold and it will all make sense. Keep watching I promise it is worth all of your time. I have not commented before but I felt that I should recommend this kdrama to each and everyone of you. After this kdrama you will look your life from different lenses. You will appreciate your mundane life even more. You will love your parents and your siblings a little more. I hope everyone's days feel like spring from now on. What are you waiting for? Go watch it now. TIP: It is best to watch it slowly rather than pulling an all-nighter. The emotions will hit you so hard. You should watch it with your family. It will surely bond you. Enjoy!

kamado Dec 31 2025 8:40 pm just keep it simple.

one of the best drama of all time, i'm sure everyone would say that after they've watch it. literally this drama came out of nowhere just to make me shocked of everything it showed, define Perfection. it is this drama i can't get over it, help :(

i am deeply feel thankful to anyone who made this film and all of the actor, thank you for creating such story. it have one of the best writing in the history of the genre. Brouh i can't stop glazing, cause it deserved the glaze ^^ anyway, you Must watch it if you have free spare time, seriously.

You Will Not Regret It.

k drama lover Dec 31 2025 8:29 pm truly a "silent masterpiece", i'm so glad i ever watch this drama in my life.

everything just felt too real and the amount of emotion this drama have are insane, i wish i have much time and rewatching all of it's episode again and again. i would recommend this drama to anyone, cause it have all that it needed to fit for every genre, every person.

an underdog, underrated masterpiece that you'll always felt nostalgic after you watch it.

10/10 or i would say ∞/∞

Bagu Dec 21 2025 1:16 pm There are no words that could possibly describe how good this drama is or how it made me feel. The love story is heartbreaking and real, and the acting is superb. Once again, IU shows how great she is at choosing her projects. Park Bo-gum was amazing—his best character so far. Every time I saw his face, I cried. I cried in every episode. It was such an intense experience that I’m recommending When Life Gives You Tangerine to everyone. It’s not only the best drama of the year; it’s one of the best dramas of all time.

Madman999 Dec 02 2025 9:51 pm Finished this drama, tour du force. Allstar performances. Well deserved to win the awards and accolades it got.

Nik Nov 08 2025 7:25 pm Again, I come here right after watching the final episode.

I hated this drama. Yes, the 1st one or two episodes were not easy to watch for me. Maybe it is because I'm watching from 8000 km away, maybe because I don't know so many details about South Korea, especially from back then. I always kept asking myself "was it really like this on Jeju-do?".

The drama developed. The characters developed. They age. Everything was made with so much love for details, camera work and dramatic elements. All the actors and people behind the camera were doing such a fantastic job that this drama became one of the "bestest" I've ever watched until now.

I can not omit to say "of course it is like this, it is fiction, the writer wanted it to be like this". True, but I can also say that it could be a glimpse into a parallel universe where all of this really happened.

I want to mention that placing all these historical elements that happened in South Korea and the rest of the world, and also factual things about haenyeo and them learning to read and write late in their lives, all over the drama is great work!

For me it was a little puzzling that IU plays 2 characters, now and then, but that might just be me :)

Be warned: I am sure this drama Will make you shed tears more than once! I usually don't have wet eyes that easily, but well ... I've watched this drama ... !

Einjhel Sep 11 2025 2:47 am Heartfelt indeed... Worth the watch ♥️♥️♥️

Leo Sep 05 2025 11:56 am This drama is too meaningful for me and has become top 3 of my list since I started watched kdrama 16 years ago. Kudos to the writer, the director and all that involved for this drama especially to PBG and IU. Im crying out so loud outside and inside of my heart from first episode until the end. Gosh. I love this drama so much !!!!

Afolabi Tomisin Mercy Sep 01 2025 3:38 pm This is a masterpiece indeed…I love every bit of it …from the childhood Ae sun to the old Ae sun..every character did so well..but then this drama is so emotional…I cried in every episode…it was so relatable..IU is such an amazing actress to portray the role of a mother when she has never gave birth to a child and made it look so realistic ,that shows how talented she is..I’ve always love her and I love her even more after completing the drama…and my darling Park Bo gum…like seriously!! I really can’t believe it…He was so amazing in the show..this is my best drama of his…..He gave his wife nothing but love cus he really has nothing..he loved her so much..but life was so cruel to them..on top of being poor they still loose one of the child and he wailed that day …it was so painful to watch him…in conclusion..I’m so happy and contented that this drama received the best drama award cus y not.??? Every character has done so well including those people that work behind the scenes…You did creat a masterpiece most especially IU and Park Bo gum …I will be expecting more of your works!!

Roger Jul 26 2025 2:05 am When Life Gives You Tangerines is such a beautiful and touching drama. It’s not just for one age group — kids, parents, and even grandparents can all take something meaningful from it. The story is truly unique — quiet, emotional, and full of heart. It shows the ups and downs of life, love, and family in such a real way. For me, it made me reflect on how I can be a better son and husband. And honestly, the plot is so special and layered that it’s worth watching more than once. Every rewatch brings out new feelings and lessons. It’s the kind of drama that really stays with you. This is the best and most meaningful korean drama I ever watched in my life thus far.

BangtanBangtan Jul 13 2025 6:08 am Hmm, now I remember why I haven't tried watching this when it came out. I don't really like watching melodramas because I tend to carry the stories even after some time and I hate feeling down (coming from someone whose been through and possibly still in depression.) I haven't cried like this in a drama ever (way more than I felt down after watching Goblin). But the story pulls you in because of how much relatable it is and how the actors carried the emotions. A lot of scenes are very painful and emotional and the actors were so great. This is definitely one of the greatest dramas I've seen.

Brian Jun 08 2025 1:33 pm Just funny how adult Hye-Ran/Chloe ends up being played by Hye Ran the actress, love how Ae-Sun wished her mom would reincarnate as an office worker and she ended up being the one to read the poems, made me emotional.

Nicola May 25 2025 12:47 pm Such a beautiful and cinematic K drama. Felt like it genuinely took me through the lives of how Koreans lived through the decades. The costumes and settings seemed sensitively and accurately depicted. Haven’t cried this much though since Goblin days. However, there was so much warmth and hope behind each episode I couldn’t stop watching. IU and Park Bo Gum were truly magnificent. For me, this will be an absolute classic and will surely stand the test of time as a genuine treasure of a drama showing Korean culture and historic hurdles in a brutal yet poignant manner. It’s a masterpiece.

Janna May 23 2025 11:03 pm Episode 16...Who is Chole H.Lee the writer that resemble Oh Ae Seun mom? Yum Hye Ran..are they related..at the market the lady was saying " my mother inlaw told me to go with the pretty lady"

Zeus May 16 2025 4:50 pm Phenomenal!!! Amazing masterpiece!! Best kdrama of 2025 for sure! What a story, what an amazing powerful cast, kudos to all of them even the little ones! IU and Park Bo Gum were superb, great fantastic actors, just loved their chemistry and acting together!

Sangkari May 07 2025 6:18 am Guys you all deserve the award. What the movie . The story line wow. Such a great beautiful amazing wonderful movie I ever watched my life.

MBrosseau May 02 2025 8:33 pm Haha, got to say it, Gwansik's Jeeps and Raybans comment has to be the best product placement ever lol

Sana Apr 29 2025 6:23 am The whole cast is amazing the old, young, and the children , thanks to all staff behind the camera its really beautiful drama

dramalover Apr 28 2025 5:14 am explanation for those who haven't watched it & SPOILER : if any person had problem with simps-like male who follows & listens to the girl plus having lots of weak useless characters , or anyone who has not experienced hardships related to money or parent-children issues, and also those who hate dramas where scenes goes back & forth between past - present , then this drama is Not for you. it's about a life of a girl , whether we can relate to or not , from childhood with her mother and then all the way till she has grandchildren. as the drama goes on. that girl's daughter narration become more & more the main narrator of the story as she is similar in personality to her mother to make it a continuous journey tale from generation to generation.

Leonard Mason Apr 22 2025 11:26 pm No drama had ne crying so hard and so long as this one. It was a great drama. IU was fantastic.

DramaDowager Apr 17 2025 11:47 pm This is one of the most heartfelt beautiful Slice of Life dramas I've ever watched. I've been watching dramas since 2012. I rarely watch anything else. The writers have given the actors and actresses lines that are full of Truth and wisdom. All of the character actors and Main leads did a stellar job. IU was fantastic. I cried, I laughed. Many Bittersweet and some beautiful memories from my own life were evoked from this series. At my age, 82, I appreciate it all the stages of life portrayed here. Congratulations to all involved in making this series so beautiful.

Free Bird Apr 17 2025 8:10 pm I’m up to episode 12 now and this is a really good show But… It’s got some happy parts in it but it seems to have way more sad parts in it. It has some funny moments, but it seems like it’s mostly depressing. They must have used a five gallon bucket of that stuff that makes the actors cry tears. I was so looking forward to binging on this show but now that it’s 2/3 over I feel like I’ll just be glad when it’s finished. The actors are fantastic and the scenes are very beautiful. It just seems like such a sad story overall. Oh, and I know it’s necessary to jump around in time to tell the story but sometimes it’s confusing. And who is narrating anyway the mother, the daughter, the grandchild sometimes I’m not sure. Anyways, I’m gonna need to watch a comedy next to get over this one

Donal Trump Apr 17 2025 6:54 am Best 2025 k-drama. A masterpiece not to be miss!

eri Apr 15 2025 6:07 pm Before I was so scared to watch K-dramas when I got in a relationship because of how unrealistic love is being portrayed sometimes. But this one is different. It feels raw, it feels realistic, it feels relatable, it feels like as if I’m watching myself through Ae-sun.

So scared about how love is shown in K-dramas but the moment I started watching and saw how Aesun and Gwansik went through everything together, I cried my eyes out realizing I have my very own Gwansik. A friend told me to watch this series because she kept on saying that Aesun and Gwansik is very similar to me and my husband.

I’m so grateful for this series because it made me appreciate all the small things my husband does for me that I sometimes overlook or take for granted. Life is hard and will be a lot harder as we grow old but seeing how Aesun and Gwansik grew old together, it made me feel at ease and excited on what the future holds for me and my husband. Seeing the old them is like having a glimpse of me and my husband after some years. I’m so lucky to have a husband as loving as Gwansik.

trees Apr 13 2025 7:04 pm My life drama. It's like a poetry book perfectly transformed into a Korean series. Thank you for this, I gained a lot of strength to keep on living cause life goes on and on and on.

Leonard mason Apr 12 2025 10:24 pm I must have cried for ten minutes when her little boy died

Wangs Apr 12 2025 9:50 am Im crying a lot for this drama !

Kkeut Apr 08 2025 3:55 am Wow. I'm glad this is part of my 20s. I will look back on this when I get older. I am honored to have witnessed peak storytelling in a drama in my lifetime, that touches the hearts; and makes everyone appreciate what they have.

Maybe deep down, it saved me too. I express my gratitude to every actor in this drama who played their characters well. I hope it touched your lives too. Please continue to use your talent in a way that helps people get through. Please also hang in there whatever tangerines life may give you.

Lee Seohwa Apr 07 2025 5:14 pm The title is more like when life gives you stress

Kdramastan Apr 07 2025 7:31 am episode 12 onwards its a cry fest, watch it to know why everyone is raving about it.

ma-rie Apr 06 2025 9:30 pm masterpiece, i brawl while watching this

Bibi Apr 06 2025 2:14 pm Honestly I’ve been watching Korean drama for like 20+ years now and I have to say it is one of if not the best one from episode 1 to 16.. wouldn’t be surprised if it win many prizes this year

Maneju Apr 06 2025 8:33 am Lovely portrayal of family. This drama hits close to home as a daughter who was loved by her father and loved her father. I found myself crying a lot especially Episodes 14 through to 16, I relieved the memories of my dad when he was sick and till he passed and knowing that I wouldn't be able to do a lot of things that I would have wanted to give him but I'm glad I was able to do the simplest things for him. I miss him every day but i miss him a lot more today watching the last episode of the drama. Continue to rest in peace dad

Windy Apr 06 2025 8:00 am I just finished the last episode. I personally really enjoy this kind of genre—the heartwarming slice of life, and more importantly, stories about family? I think the plot was brilliant. The way they showed us the lives of three generations (and even more) and how each of their struggles was portrayed from their point of view was amazing! 9/10 croakers for this k-drama?

Windy Apr 06 2025 7:57 am Just finished the last episode. I am personally very enjoy this kind of genre, the heartwarming slice of life and more importantly about family! I think, the plot was very brilliant. How could they show us the life 3 generations (even more) and how their struggles as his/her pov. Almost crying in each episode, or i am just a crybabyy? 9 croakers per 10 for this drama!!!

Jojo Apr 06 2025 1:05 am I am a man And I have so much cry with the last episode 16.

Remembered my last parents

Damn I should not seen this drama from the beginning

MelissaB Apr 05 2025 10:03 pm Many good points about this drama. I love IU and Park BoGum, just to make it clear. The acting was excellent, the cinematography and sets were terrific. The story itself is beautiful. But the plot was just not coherent. Events, characters, time and space, jumped all over the place like a carnival wild ride. And who was Chloe H Lee, the editor, and why did she look just like Aesun's mother? I think this drama needed 20 episodes and tried to squeeze everything into 16 without total success.

Jeiel Apr 05 2025 10:23 am I love this drama very much. We are all struggling in a way, but one thing is for sure, we all have family that we treasure the most, and understanding their struggles is so heartbreaking when you finally in their shoes.

I love how they played their character so much better.

“Everyone is struggling in their own quiet ways. This story spoke to those hidden parts of us—it was gentle, raw, and deeply moving. My tears didn’t stop flowing.”

Eeng !

Tuka Apr 05 2025 5:38 am This dorama is the model of togetherness and fondness. I thank for seeing these. ?

Ruth Apr 05 2025 4:28 am At 63 this series struck home - lovely portrayal of family bonds and personalities that are universal. Finished the final two episodes today and cried buckets.

Rob Apr 04 2025 9:52 pm Well, that was a ride ;-). Fantastic Kdrama. I was enthralled from the starting episode. Largely due to the initial impact of the settings. Whoever was responsible for the movie setting/backdrop did an absolutely phenomenal job. My wife grew up in the era the movie covered and I couldn't help wonder how she what she would have thought about the settings. The cast was amazing and did an amazing job. With one exception, there was absolutely no reason to have IU play a dual role and because of that the highest rating I could give is a 9. It was confusing, disconcerting, and didn't need to be cast that way. Nonetheless I did give the 9. It was a roller coaster of ups and downs, just like life really is. Honestly, I could only skim the last episode because as I had the God given responsibility, love, and to be the caretaker seeing my wife cross that final divide with dementia. Moon So-Ri looked too much like my wife in her final years that I simply had to glide over the final episode being all to familiar with life's conclusion. But it still was simply a fantastic series to behold.

Boko boko Apr 04 2025 12:48 am Bawling my eyes out watching this. 10/10

Darey Apr 03 2025 11:05 pm honestly I'm quite disappointed because park bogum only appeared for a short time. appeared in the early episodes and just disappeared, not without reason IU played their daughter.

I also don't understand why they never tell from gwansik's point of view. for example when he was in school, how he could become an athlete or how he worked and fished. I waited but there was never any. only the woman's point of view. even though men have their own conflicts not only women.

Pearl Apr 03 2025 1:40 pm "When Life Gives You Tangerines" is an absolute gem! From the first episode to the very last, this drama captivates with its heartwarming and emotionally charged story. The chemistry between the cast is undeniable, and each performance feels so raw and genuine, making it easy to get lost in their world. The characters are beautifully developed, and you can’t help but root for them as they navigate life’s challenges and joys. The story is simple yet profound, filled with tender moments that make you smile, laugh, and buckets of tears. It’s a perfect blend of love, family, hope, and resilience. Truly a must-watch for anyone looking for a touching and memorable experience. Everything about it was a masterpiece...still in tears after it has ended....each and every of the casts were just exceptionally brilliant!

IU Apr 03 2025 1:12 pm It's not a romantic comedy nor a tradegy. This drama only shows the real life we all live in. Maybe that's the reason why I cry a lot watching that. It reminded me that I should respect my family and show how much I care about them while I still have chance.

Su San Apr 03 2025 1:49 am ❤Absolutely wonderful-a masterpiece! Beyond words....just watch it!❤

Gress Apr 02 2025 2:37 pm This is the best drama ever!!! contains many things like family, love, togetherness, sacrifice, struggle, and many more. I can't stop crying and feel the warmth of every message in the conversation that is delivered.

I hope this drama can be aired on national TV in Indonesia. Because I think the story line and the conditions that occur are very relatable. I hope my family will be watching this drama soon! Thanks a lot to the directors, actresses, actors, producers, and all the crew who have given this best drama so that everything is very smooth and conveyed to the audience warmly <3

Please create a drama with a genre and plot like this so that those of us who are far from our families can never forget and miss them.

Apenk Apr 02 2025 5:11 am Very good drama

plot similar with oshin and hiyokko produced by NHK Japan

But this Korean drama is more deep and intense

One of the best drama this year beside hyper knife

Noe Apr 01 2025 4:41 pm I'm only halfway through episode 3 and I'm enjoying the series except for one thing: the ridiculous amount of loud crying, shouting, screaming, and loud talking. It's to the point that I have to keep turning the volume down.

ciska Apr 01 2025 8:48 am a beautiful, beautiful story. memerizing. each episode brings you to tears, but at the same time brings happiness. a story of life, family, love, aspirations - you name it. we can all relate to it as it is a piece of our lifes. i did not want to binge watch, instead, watching one episode daily as i did not want to finish the drama quickly. i wanted to savour it, to enjoy each piece - not wanting it to end. kudos to the scriptwriter, the producer and of course, the actors. the actors each played their roles wonderfully, bringing their characters to life. last time I enjoyed a drama this well as Reply 1988. this LGYT is an epic! I don't want to stop watching! Please, please, please write another good story like this one.

Andrea Mar 31 2025 8:55 pm "An Unmissable Masterpiece!"

"When Life Gives You Tangerines" is an absolute gem that keeps you hooked from the very first episode to the last. The actors and actresses deliver flawless performances, making every scene feel incredibly real and emotional. The storyline is gripping, full of unexpected twists, heartfelt moments, and just the right balance of drama and warmth. I was so captivated that I ended up binge-watching the entire series iin three dsys and n one night! If you’re looking for a series that’s beautifully written, brilliantly acted, and impossible to stop watching, this is it. Don’t miss out!

Iovespongy Mar 31 2025 10:33 am tried watching because of all the hype but probably not for me. I llove IU and Bo Gum though. Probably my expectation got way to high and found it a bit slow-paced

karen Mar 31 2025 9:26 am such a great drama..so heart warming

Something to tell Mar 31 2025 2:47 am I usually don't leave comments for any series I watch but on this I had to and here I came for this one, this series stressing more this series is a must must watch. This drama made me cry so much, each and every episode is a gem, if you want a slice of life drama this is the one you should look forward, its so realistic that whatever bad or good happens to the character it feels personal, which means the cast gave all their what the drama wanted and the story, what a story really this drama is one of kind and it stays always near to my heart, so please do watch this drama.

Meerah Mar 31 2025 2:18 am I enjoyed this Kdrama. I literally cried watching every episode, omg. Every cast nailed their roles well. I love that there was character development in this drama. I had a good cry. Kudos to everyone involved in this Kdrama, from production crew to cast members. (

Val Mar 30 2025 10:17 pm This has officially dethroned 2521 as the drama that has made me cry the most Ever in my life. This is a “watch one at a time” kind of drama. Made the mistake of watching episodes 1-3 on a row and felt like I would pass out from crying, but then I watched 12-13 and it was worse, and Then again 15-16 back to back and when I tell you I didn’t just cry, I bawled my eyes out, I wailed, I was hyperventilating, I literally felt like I was gonna die from crying. Anyways, all that to say this was beautifully written. There were some very annoying characters but the main story of Aesun and Gwangsik was just beautiful.

m Mar 30 2025 7:57 pm I don't get what the all the positive brouhaha is about! I find this so boring and I don't get the appeal. Boring! And I happen to love Park Bo-Gum find him adorable.

Candy10 Mar 30 2025 6:14 pm Such a materpiece! Every episode is heartwarming and worth watching. Super Duper love this kdrama series. By far is the best series I have ever watched…??

Huigene Mar 30 2025 6:37 am Just want to leave a trace to a masterpiece series I've watched. Nearly ending this series, I thought I'll feel empty because it's ended. But strangely I feel so full and satisfied.

Ems Mar 30 2025 6:09 am I don't understand why IU's husband, Kim Seon Ho, is rarely seen. IU's child and nephew have grown up, and IU's father has passed away. There isn't even a trace of Kim Seon Ho, and he hardly makes any appearances in the scene. But I love this kdrama and best ever!

Erika Mar 30 2025 4:23 am I never leave a comment in a movie or drama series; this is my first time. This is a masterpiece; it is beyond what I could imagine a drama series could give. When Life Gives You Tangerine is more than just a drama series. it’s a deeply moving exploration of love, sacrifice, and the unspoken emotions that bind families together. Unlike typical dramas that rely on exaggerated conflicts and predictable resolutions, this series thrives on raw, genuine storytelling, making every episode feel like a heartfelt letter to anyone who has ever struggled to understand or appreciate their parents.

At its core, Isn’t just about a single protagonist’s journey but a collective experience of family, generational gaps, and the delicate balance between duty and dreams. It beautifully captures the quiet moments, the lingering gazes, the unspoken apologies, the small gestures of care that often hold more weight than grand declarations. The show teaches us that love isn't always loud; sometimes, it’s in the peeled fruit left on the table, the carefully packed lunch, or the silent sacrifices made without expectation of gratitude.

The production itself mirrors the sincerity of the story. From its warm, nostalgic cinematography to the carefully curated soundtrack that tugs at the heartstrings, every element is crafted to evoke deep emotion. The acting performances are subtle yet powerful, allowing the audience to truly feel the weight of the characters' choices. The writing doesn’t spoon-feed its message but rather lets it unfold naturally, making viewers reflect on their relationships.

In a world where fast-paced entertainment often overshadows meaningful storytelling, *When Life Gives You Tangerine* stands as a rare gem, a reminder to cherish our loved ones while we still can. What a good cry series. Kudos to all!

Chin P. Mar 30 2025 1:16 am This drama is such a... masterpiece. I cried every episode, and I cried buckets at the last two episodes. This drama made my cry so much, but it didn't leave me feeling devastated every time. Instead, each tear healed so many things in my heart. It also made me appreciate my parents, late grand and great grandparents even more. I've always imagined how their lives were, but this drama gave me new perspectives that made me respect them more.

The storytelling is amazing, and I think this drama is truly the best among all dramas I've watched for years. The casting is amazing! I've always been a fan of IU, but she did such an extraordinary job portraying the emotions of the two characters she portrayed. The rest of the actors/actresses did equally amazing delivering their characters too. They're all great, and all I wish for everyone involved in this drama is to win awards they deserve.

I've never felt this satisfied watching a drama's ending for years too. Overall, apart from swollen eyes for weeks, this drama left me feeling fulfilled, inspired and healed as if I read the best novel in my life. ;---; <3

dewwy Mar 29 2025 10:55 pm love this kdrama.. im so touched with the storyline.. great actors dan actress..

Deelenx Mar 29 2025 10:50 pm Brawling my eyes watching this. At first I wasn’t interested because of the timeline. I don’t like to watch old era genre. But I saw many reels that attracted me to watch. Damn it is so good. The story is realistic, well written and there are many life lessons in it too. I love it

Rochelle Mar 29 2025 8:16 pm The best kdramas story that I have watched so far. The scenes, the stories and all the main characters portray their very best. So many best actress and actors. Congratulations!

Help Mar 29 2025 5:43 pm @Riru no problems at all with grammar and thanks for explaining that. I had thought she gies to japan for full degree but I think maybe it was for some time only.

Laura Mar 29 2025 3:30 pm This is a masterpiece , 2nd best kdrama I have ever watched. If you are watching for just clingy romance this is not for you . This is a story about life of ordinary people from generations . This is in a way more women focused but not entirely . Its so interesting to see how each character mature with time. No one is really a villain . This teaches us so much life lessons . Anyone is not perfect arguments between family is inevitable , but we really love eachother . I really love how this drama protray generations of love from grear grand parents to kids.The main couple's love tthroughout ,growing up together , the commintment,respect ,love for eachother is ppriceless . Such a love is so rare. Writer is amazing . Casting is so good . Specially I didnt see 2 seperate women in Aesun it was like the same women iu & soori nailed it. Although initially I didnt feel both gwanshik's young & old as same person( bogum & haejoon were amazing in both, but later they were also like one person , well although with makeup in some parts HaeJoon's youthful looks could not be hidden . . .

Jillibean Mar 29 2025 2:54 pm @Cottomate, I agree with everything you wrote except for the soundtrack. I didn't finish any episode humming any of the tunes in the OST. Whereas with IU's My Mister I couldn't stop humming All of them.

LB Mar 29 2025 2:47 pm This is by far the best drama I’ve seen in years! I always think it couldn’t get better. But I’m sure this drama is just so different from every other drama. I loved every second of it. I hope they’ll be rewarded with many many awards!

Tokki Mar 29 2025 2:16 pm This drama will win a lot of awards

Muhammad Faisal Mar 29 2025 1:50 pm No words to say.The best kdrama I've ever seen.

Jung Shik Mar 29 2025 12:56 pm This drama is a masterpiece

Jewel Mar 29 2025 10:43 am Everything was perfect Had a roller coaster of emotions... laughter and tears..

I love it and well done to everyone who involved in the drama!!!

Cottomate Mar 29 2025 5:55 am Amazing. Good story, good actors, good cinematography, good soundtrack. This is the real "cinema" All of the tears that came out is paid off. Thank you, thank you so much for making this drama. I hope all the actor and the crew can always be blessed.

Leah Mar 29 2025 5:27 am One of the best drama I've ever watched. Literally the best drama ever!!!

Ddeonu Mar 29 2025 3:46 am Finally I finished watching it. I will never be bored to say that this drama is really the best drama of all the dramas I watched. The drama made by the writer is extraordinarily cool, plus all the staff and directors who make this drama better.The plot and cast in this drama are very cool. They managed to play a great character. Oh God, this drama really touches my heart and soul.

But the actor Gwan-sik wants the young or adult version to be the best. He successfully played the character as a good husband and father. He is very cool. Many want a figure like Gwan-sik in real life. I hope.

After that, IU. He plays a lot of roles here. And he successfully brought all the roles perfectly.

I really hope this drama will get a big award. But here I am very sad. Good drama in this month is no longer there.

Those who haven't watched, let's watch quickly. Rate of me 100/10

blu Mar 28 2025 10:34 pm For me this literally the best K-Drama ever! Seriously!!! The story was beautifully written, the cinematography was flawlessly directed, the cast were perfectly casted. And this is not only a love story being told, but also a story of a women, a mother, a father, a child, a family. And did not expect I would cry so much to this drama, like fore real, literally I cried on each episode! So, if you want to watch this, don't forget to prepare tissue!!!

Actually, I'd never watched IU's dramas before, this is the first drama I watched with her in it. And I actually kinda skeptical when it comes to idol-actors. But, oh my god she's Fantastic, she's a phenomenal actor. She's incredible as a singer and she's also great at acting, what can't she do really?

Fay Mar 28 2025 10:25 pm This drama is so well written i can relate with almost every single scene when it comes to my family, my parents, siblings, how each of us have our own struggles, our parents commitments and that they have done the best they could in their given situation in life. I hope this wins best drama. The level of detail, the flow, the acting, the narration is top notch.

Belle Mar 28 2025 10:05 pm When Life Gives You Tangerines is hands down the best kdrama we've seen in the last decade with My Mister trailing in 2nd which also stars IU and Park Hae Joon with the same director. Bravo to all the cast and crew!

Fossy Mar 28 2025 6:12 pm Wauw,

I have watched at least 500+ kdramas and I am somehow completely speechless.

This is the best I have ever watched. I feel happy and sad at the same time or maybe just very emotional.

The performance from each and every actor is simply stunning. I feel so privileged to have experienced it.

jjang Mar 28 2025 6:00 pm What a cycle!

This show is not just a drama; it feels authentic, I've watched Jewel in the Palace and Full House when I was in elementary school, as well as the newer dramas that have been released up until now.

This drama deserves to be one of the best dramas ever!!!

NewEra Mar 28 2025 3:16 pm "When Life Gives You Tangerines" is one of those dramas that sneaks up on you emotionally. At first, it feels like a simple period piece set in post-war Jeju, but as the story unfolds, it becomes a deeply moving reflection on love, resilience, and the quiet struggles of ordinary people.

At its heart, the drama follows Ae-sun, a rebellious, free-spirited woman who dreams of becoming a poet, and Gwan-sik, a reserved yet dependable man who has loved her for as long as he can remember. Their love story isn’t the typical whirlwind romance—it's slow, enduring, and shaped by time, loss, and circumstances beyond their control. The show doesn’t shy away from the harsh realities of life, especially in a time of recovery and change, but it also beautifully captures the small joys—like the warmth of family, the comfort of familiar faces, and the simple act of picking tangerines under the sun.

What stands out in this drama is its quiet strength. It doesn’t rely on exaggerated drama or flashy storytelling. Instead, it focuses on the raw emotions of its characters—the sacrifices they make, the regrets they carry, and the love that lingers even when life doesn’t go as planned. It reminds us that sometimes, happiness isn’t about chasing something grand, but about finding meaning in the everyday moments we often overlook.

If you’re looking for a drama that will gently break your heart and piece it back together, "When Life Gives You Tangerines" is worth watching. It stays with you, making you reflect on love, time, and the way life moves forward, whether we’re ready for it or not.

P. S. The last episode made me shared some tears !

Dami Mar 28 2025 3:14 pm The most beautiful series I’ve seen in recent times !!!!!!!

Aki Mar 28 2025 2:49 pm Best drama of all time! Thank you for this masterpiece! You guys deserve all the awards including daesang.

Cathy Estoque Mar 28 2025 11:32 am Best Drama Ever! This is a top tier drama!!!!!

Nat Mar 28 2025 11:29 am Top recommended family drama!! Finale episode really makes drying out tears.. But still happy ending. All the actors played the character greatly. Especially Park Hae Joon and Moon So Ri that can make you feel like a real life!

M Mar 28 2025 8:54 am Poignant, heartwarming, and poetic. It's an enjoyable series. One that will stay with you for a long time. There are a lot of relatable scenes that will make you ponder on your own life and worldview. I recommend this series to anyone looking for a great slice of life drama.

Jillibean Mar 28 2025 7:24 am I stayed up all night and watched the last four episodes. Magnificent. I teared up in many scenes. There was humor too. In some ways this drama reminded me of old classic family dramas in Korea in its style of writing and its ambiance. I think the writer was paying homage to them.

riru Mar 28 2025 6:24 am @Help – In ep8, it's 1987 when Geum-Yeong (IU) go to Japan to study, then in ep9 it's 1990 (not sure if 1990) she's back in Korea. Sorry for the grammar:))

Jillibean Mar 27 2025 10:29 pm Nice post, Charlene. I very much agree with you. This is definitely a masterpiece. I look forward to the next, last four episodes this weekend.

Charlene Mar 27 2025 1:17 pm Wow, I truly love this drama. Somehow, it left such a deep impression on me, as if I had lived in that era. It’s heartbreaking to see Ae Soon, Gwan Sik, and the others struggle. The way Gwan Sik loves Ae Soon and her children is so touching. Likewise, Ae Soon never demands anything from him and always supports him. They complete each other and are lucky to have one another. Their story feels so real and meaningful, making me believe that true love is all about sincerity, sacrifice, and unwavering devotion through every hardship, proving that love transcends all obstacles and lasts forever.

Help Mar 26 2025 12:07 am Someone help me. In episode 8 they show.iu flying to japan how did she return so fast back to.korea. In ep 9 she is back,could someone explain this?

Tuka Mar 25 2025 3:56 pm Thank all of You that I can see this enthralling dorama with all main and support roles too. The actors’works are brilliant. I think so it ought to get many Daesang awards, e.g. scriptwriter, directing, IU, Park Bo Gum and the hanyeo group’s actresses together. These actresses are Cha Mi-Kyung, Lee Soo-Mi, Baek Ji-Won, Jeon Young, Jung Eun-Kyung also had very hard tasks, roles.

Urnak Mar 25 2025 2:25 pm Lovely series Moon So Ri, Park Hae Joon and IU are just like peas in a pod throughout the entirety of the series. Looking forward to the very last volume this series is amazing and special in every way I love the aunties they remind me of my own aunties during family gathering and see them cooking up a storm in the kitchen especially with the cigarettes and stuff alot of memories were flooding in. Especially my uncles who loved fishing and hunting etc. So much memories.

Watching all the lovey-dovey scenes throughout the series itself is so funny. The romance in the series is very strong indeed looking forward to the last volume.

MT Mar 25 2025 2:38 am Park Bo Gum's acting deserve an award !! I must say so far no bad acting from all the cast..

Laura Mar 24 2025 2:18 pm Brilliant job all actors we cant find your celebrity figures but those village characters . Finally a drama without all fancy clothes & ceos

Laura Mar 24 2025 2:16 pm Masterpiece whatever the ending is this is a masterpiece . This is not just about romance this is about life, growing up ,reality etc... Honestly Male lead is really a great manly man . I love Aeshin's character too, I like her growth she was little stubborn but after marriage she also love respect her husband very much .

Jjo Mar 24 2025 12:53 pm Want geum myeong and yeong beom to end up together

Kristine Mar 24 2025 7:28 am The kids generation both men and women had an easier time. People were so excited mom could live her life through her daughter when she got into college. The son’s mom was living her life through her son. It was the same. The FIL said it at the meeting between families. Now his wife ‘won’t have to be the one to ladle the soup’. As if he contributed to her new lady of leisure status. I suppose he did as they made a baby boy who grew up to complete the social contract that was Korea, have a boy so you will have a DIL to serve you after you served us. If the world was unfair to her mom, It was also unfair to his mom. The girl mom got satisfaction early in seeing her get to do things she could not. The boy mom could not get ‘satisfaction’ until her son married, and her husband retired with the son supporting them. All that money put into him paying off. The son is the social security of the time. And inflation on steroids. Even if they saved and relied on themselves no way they could support themselves through old age. There was no National Pension Service in Korea until 1987. That was when people started contributing to it. The parents generation most didn’t have high school. Their kids would have university. It was that way in the U.S., a generation put the kids through that didn’t have the option themselves. Even if the girl had education she would not be employed by a company or have a variety of job choices. She would have a few ways to make a living. They would be expected to quit upon marriage or babies. Marriage is the joining of families not two people in that place and in that time.

For another life isn’t fair watch or read Ji Young born 1982. Honestly the world sucked for her mom. Her mom didn’t have a high school diploma. Had to quit school to work in a factory to earn money to send her brothers. High school cost money back then. It’s only recently it’s free. Her mom served her MIL. Her mom aborted her 3rd baby cause it was girl. But had to keep going for a boy. Had to make it fair for her girls. Had to keep her husband from making them broke with co-signing and investments that didn’t pan out but ran porridge shop. Knew when to buy a new apartment. But her daughter had university, marriage to a person entirely of her choosing, a job not of the three D’s, a baby, no MIL living with her telling her to have a son for several years, a husband who cared about her and took on child care roles and free of dictatorships during her adult life. She had job opportunities, after leading for maternity leave. Her boss a woman. But somehow this a problem. She had it was better than mom.

Or read Pachinko. The grandparents generation. They had occupation. Then were adults through the wars. Her mother told her it was entirely her responsibility to see to her family. To serve the in-laws and give them no reason to criticize. To be ‘selfless’ with her husband in all stages of pregnancy. She could not read or write. Her parents could not agree, her father wanted school for her. Her choices were being kept woman in shame that would extend to her son, suicide, running away and probably dying or marrying and leaving. Marrying always meant leaving the area you grew up. The joining the husbands family was very real not just symbolic. You left your home town. And she ended up having to convert. Her late father was distrustful of Christians. And she had to do it all while keeping the ego of her husband and her BIL. And obey her SIL. She could have easily been put out and they would have kept the baby. He first suggested giving the baby to his brother and wife. The workers of her mother’s guest house none of them would be able to marry, until the world changed. She was hardly marriageable because of her father being gone, his disability, their economics. Her getting pregnant saved her the fate of the female workers at her mothers inn. Some were tricked and some were just decided you will get on the truck and are to work at ‘a factory’, that was not factory work…

Disee Mar 24 2025 2:56 am I am watching this both with enjoyment but huge disappointment that that they moved into their adult characters too soon. Park Bo-Gum and IU characters so so brilliantly played and their story of pure love and care for each other whilst enduring hardships and such a heart reaching loss could easily have been extended into further series before leaping into adulthood so abruptly. I know it's the daughter telling the story but I am missing PBG and IU 's further development and growth that has clearly formed their adult characters. PBG's portrayal of his character is brilliant, they way he continues to look like a stunned mullet hopelessly on love with IT'S character.

Teume Mar 23 2025 2:10 am I've watched EPS 9-12, my feelings mixed up while watching this drama. But I really enjoyed it. This drama is very worthy of getting Daesang. Because the player, writer and drama are on Played perfectly..

Teume Mar 23 2025 2:09 am I've watched EPS 9-12, my feelings mixed up while watching this drama. But I really enjoyed it. This drama is very worthy of getting Daesang. Because the player, writer and drama are on Played perfectly.

Ddeonu Mar 23 2025 2:06 am I returned after watching 9-12 EPS 2 hours after uploading. What a lot of emotions we get while watching this drama. Really a very good drama. There is no boredom while watching. My feelings mixed up but I enjoyed it. Acting all the actors in this drama is very good. Nothing is destructive. Moreover, the scene where Yeongbeom's mother continues to make fun of Geum-young, wow, my taste I want to pull her hair so annoyed I see it That means he successfully brought the character of Narissistic Mother. Ohh, I am afraid that in the real world there really is a mother like that? Moreover, I was sorry when his son kept screaming and wanted to stop The mother's sharp words but ignored. This is my first time seeing Jun-young in this drama. It was so he couldn't do anything. Because his mother still doesn't want to listen. Until finally the mother suffered too. Even though Yeongbeom is good like Geum-young's father but can't unite because of the male mother. The flow of this drama is like a scene in a true story. This drama deserves Daesang. Ouch not feel next week, this drama will end huhu ~

Isk Sams Mar 23 2025 1:43 am I am a big fan of Director Kim Won-Suk. From the drama Misaeng(2014),Signal(2016),My Mister(2018), Arthdal Chronicles(2019) and this drama.The directing style is magnificent. Kudos to writer for this drama. The plot and storylines is superb. The casting line is very good. Actor’s and actress’s is delivered the emotions to audience. The OST also stunning. Retro/classical OST sounds like is very suitable. Overalls this Drama is masterpiece. Looking forward to achieve many awards this year for this Drama “ Thank You for Your Hard Work/ When Life gives You Tangerines”.

Ooki Mar 23 2025 12:47 am I didn't realize Kim Sun Ho was here.

Jillibean Mar 22 2025 5:19 pm Just finished 12. Have to wait a few days more for the remaining 4 episodes. Darn. I think Geum-Myeong's first love will come back into her life because he is more like the quiet Dad she loves. That's the way I would write it, but you just never know.

Willietree Mar 21 2025 11:55 pm Wanted to add that i did not recognise kim seonho at all…he always adds a comedic element to his scenes which is a relief from the heavier mood in the past episodes

Willietree Mar 21 2025 11:53 pm Such an endearing show!!! I love love how this isn’t really a romance drama but more like slice of life. Shows u the different types of love, from each generation. I love the story revolving around aesun, gwansik anf geum myeong. And i think people shd really stop focussing on geum myeong’s love life…cause that’s not the focus of this show at all. There’s soooo much more to it. Everyone wants her to end up with yb cause it’s her first love, but not everyone gets to marry their first love. And this is reality. Chungseob intrigues me and i wanna know more how they fall in love (if the fall in love)

Tsunderee Mar 21 2025 9:59 pm I can't wait for the next episode, the story just keeps getting better. The way they developed the love story and the family aspect, from when IU and Park Bo Gum oppa cute were kids to their adulthood, was amazing. I got so hooked—laughing, crying, and stuck in the story because of their incredible acting. Everyone was great. Then, the new generation of IU's family came in, the characters changed, and there was a twist. It was a family and love story that truly reflects real life. Eventually, a military man Lee Jun Young oppa cute entered her life, and he made her feel giddy, but their love didn't work out because the guy lacked the courage. Then Kim Heon So oppa handsome cute came in and also made everyone swoon. I hope they focus more on their love story... not filled with struggles anymore, but with happiness and full of love until they get married. It's so heartwarming. Can you make the story long?

Vyo Mar 21 2025 5:55 pm Omg i just watch eps 9-12, suddenly Kim Seon Ho??? I thought he is a cameo? But suddenly a roller coaster story, I really love the story line!!! Daebak writer nim!!! Then I just found out that the writer nim created when camillia bloom and fight for my way. The director previous work is signal! Misaeng!!! Definetely this drama will get Baeksang award!!

seokjinie Mar 21 2025 4:49 pm I pity lee jun young's character and him always crying in his roles ! same in melo movie...this drama is on amother level, when you thought you've cried enought, but no, every episode is worth watching, laughing, and crying over...a masterpiece, there's no plot to uncover, reminds me of reply1988, this is about people living their lives...

CV Mar 21 2025 1:23 pm I am actually watching at slow pace, take my own sweet time to watch but not until Kim Seon Ho appearance ! I wiped it all out till midnight! Can’t wait for him to appear the next episode!

happy viewer Mar 21 2025 10:44 am This is the best series this year so far. So happy that there are 4 episodes per week. Can’t wait for the last 4 episodes. Everyone is playing their roles very well. A series that you will keep in your heart.

ipeh Mar 21 2025 6:38 am Adding Kim Seon Ho to the cast makes this drama become the most perfectest.

Parkchic Mar 21 2025 6:14 am Kim Seon Ho appeared with long hair, working at the cinema. He worked there alongside IU. I hope he's the partner instead. One of the best actor and handsome also.

Weronika Mar 21 2025 5:44 am the best kdrama I've ever seen. I've watched dozens

Fai Mar 17 2025 6:42 pm Good drama I love it

Cassa Mar 17 2025 3:47 pm Stellar performance by IU and Bogum and a big thankyou to all the cast and crew of for bringing this beautiful drama into life. The scriptwriter has done a phenomenal job and the way the scenes are directed and portrayed is truly commendable.Each and every episode of this drama is a well crafted masterpiece.It will make you cry your heart out at one point and laugh your heart out at another.Can't wait to watch more episodes!

kaguya Mar 16 2025 9:06 am The drama is so good, it gives us many life lessons. There are many tears, many laughs, and a lot of family feeling in this drama. I highly recommend watching it.

Jillibean Mar 16 2025 4:27 am The first half of episode six is devastating, hot tears fell down my cheeks while watching. Just a heads-up for those who haven't watched it yet.

kaonashi Mar 15 2025 7:57 pm i was telling myself, "I Hate This Kind Of Genre", but then here i am crying how poor ae-sun and gwansik's life are, like can we have an open donation? lol The Script Was Awesome btw, shout out to the writer and the director

Jillibean Mar 15 2025 4:41 am Folks need to understand how horrible life in Korea was during and after the Korean War in the 195O's. People starved to death. Families were torn apart by economic poverty and then the splitting up of the country North vs. South disrupted their lives even more. Many starved to death, lost their homes. It was a different world from South Korea the way it is today. Look at vintage photos of Korean villages and cities in the 195O's vs 1990's. Amazing. It really wasn't until the 197O's that South Korea began to look industrialized. This is the economic and social backdrop of this drama's story.

Busan Mar 15 2025 1:47 am i wanna give this drama an infinity stars. Its soooooooo good and very touching story. Never thought that i would watch this kind of genre but this is my first genre of kdrama and its top notch!!!!

Luise Mar 14 2025 11:34 pm I got goosebumps when IU and Park Bo Gum kissed each other, even though it was just a slight kiss, and I giggled. I cried a lot when their youngest son died. The story was really great, and the cast was amazing. IU and Park Bo Gum are such great actors. I also loved seeing the couple as they grew older, and their sweetness never faded away. I hope that in the next generation, IU’s partner will still be Park Bo Gum in the end. Highly recommended. #1

Mella Mar 14 2025 7:24 pm This drama is so good gosh. Tears every episode that's when you know its good.Park no gum and IU this one is really good.

Ursa Major Mar 14 2025 5:45 pm I thought this will be another boring 'slice of like' drama, but it turned out good. Every episode made me cry. IU and Park Bo Gum portrayed the characters well. The drama has simple storyline but it has a lot of emotions in each part. You can feel both leads' mixed up emotions, from sweetness and compassion to despair and distress.

Moraxx Mar 14 2025 5:15 pm Is this drama too overhyped? The story is mid

Aiat Mar 14 2025 10:26 am It’s the a very long time since I watched a perfect drama as this one!! Acting is top notch!!

sf Mar 12 2025 11:37 pm Too much screaming. This drama tells me nothing, only the characters' hard life, plus, it is too noisy.

Angel Mar 11 2025 1:41 pm This drama has made me appreciate my husband and my parents even more. It should be a crime for a drama to be this good! Managed to tear up in every single episode. 10/10

Ddeonu Mar 11 2025 11:10 am Ahhh, I'm very happy there is a good drama again. Actually I've seen. At first I wasn't interested in watching it. But in Tiktok many who include footage of this drama. And there me Immediately interested in watching it. From the beginning to EPS 4 is not boring at all. Full of emotion, sweet and also funny. Park Bogum and IU acting is very good. Feel is very pronounced. I Hope there is no painful ending because I like the flow of this drama. Indeed, the writer is from When The Camellia Blooms and Fight for My Way. Already sure it will be successful too. So far it's good. Hopefully, even if there is a conflict that does not smell loss.

K8MD Ü Mar 09 2025 8:05 pm This Drama is well crafted from the storyline, location, directing, actors, actress, props, makeup, and until to the last detail. Without a doubt it’s a treasure in this day and age. It’s one year in a making and another year in post production. IU and Bogummy are the perfect fit and upheld their acting. Each episodes gave different vibes. We can all relate whether thru family, situation, or generation we are in. When life gives you tangerine will go down in history and be remembered as one of the best Drama. Four episodes in we are already wanting for more. Cant wait for March 14 for Volume 2.

Jillibean Mar 09 2025 2:18 pm The scriptwriter gave us When The Camellia Blooms, a veritable masterpiece. So I have every confidence in the same thing happening here with When Life Gives You Tangerines. :)

Sushi87 Mar 09 2025 11:41 am A masterpiece indeed! Living in poverty in extended families has been endured by many.

Great ensemble acting. I cry with PBG everytime. His crying is infectious.

IU is good at selecting projects.

I love their grown up versions too.

Excited for the next episodes.

LH Mar 09 2025 9:37 am Amazing!!!!! IU and Park Bo Gum!!!!!! I cried so much!!!! Can't wait for the next episodes!!!!

Iera Mar 08 2025 11:18 pm I cry a lot because of Gwan Sik feeling for Ae Sun and Ae Sun life ! Park Bo Gum & IU really really make me cry a lot, but also make me happy and proud a lot in this Drama.. What an exciting drama !! I Love this Masterpiece so much!! Can't wait for another next episode ! They all really did Great!! Park Bo Gum, IU, Fighting!! Writer, this drama must be a happy ending for Ae Sun & Gwan Sik, also for their child life journey.. Jebal! I really enjoy this drama! A lot!!

Nimi Mar 08 2025 4:00 pm What a masterpiece…I laughed and cried with every episodes…

@opeyemi the mother died after getting sick from diving the sea.

Gly Mar 08 2025 8:51 am Omg, Masterpiece! Excellent, Outstanding Drama of the year!!!

Eliz Mar 08 2025 1:20 am I hope the story isn’t just focused on the past, but on what will happen to Aue-sun's child. If it’s only about the past, the story will revolve around that. I hope it’s about the child, with a different character. IU will work hard in her career, and Park Bo Gum’s character will be wealthy, a CEO. However, IU won't let herself be overshadowed by him because she doesn't want her past struggles to affect her future. Can't wait for the next episode. Exciting..great drama.

Doris Mar 07 2025 2:24 pm Beautiful drama watched release day , cried what a hardship in the old days. Park Bogum, and IU take you through a wonderfull story, of poverty, love , commitment, young lovers. Young hardworking parenthood,i don´t want spil the beans , but this drama is very good.

Bhing Mar 07 2025 2:06 pm Amazing..i love this drama soooooo much.it makes me laugh and cry.Every epesode was so exciting.I never ever skip in every epsodes of it.IU and Park Bo-Gum never dissappoint me at all

Andrea Mar 07 2025 1:28 pm Daebak!!!! Daebak!!! A good kdrama drought finally over. Bravo!!! What a beautiful drama. Every bits of it. The casting, the make ups of the actors/actresses (legit tone of skin living near the sea compare to a lot of dramas that was set on an island). Every role portrayed by great actresses and actors, even the extras were great. I am thankful and grateful to writer-nim and director-nim, thank you for this masterpiece. Finally, a drama worth watching from every seconds of it.

Shann Mar 07 2025 9:28 am I really love the first 4 episodes.. what a real life story everybody can relate.. I love Bogummmyyy and IU such a nice couple.. they are so look good together.. I Love how gwangsik shows his love to aesun.. and I Love Aesun how much she cares and fight for her husband... Excited for 5-8 episode!!!!

Rainy Mar 07 2025 8:55 am Omg, this series is so good. It gave me butterflies and make me cry. Love Bo Gum and IU chemistry.

Shaik Mar 07 2025 6:43 am I just seen the first episode I literally cried !

Opeyemi Mar 07 2025 6:37 am Pls how does the mother pass away, can anyone explain it to me, I don't really understand the plot.

Zoelou Mar 07 2025 5:54 am The story is so beautiful that from the very beginning, you won't want to stop watching. It's about the love of a parent, the love of a friend, and seemingly a love from someone who became a friend long ago, no matter what happens through hardship and ease. Both of them come from humble beginnings and know what needs to be done. The chemistry between IU and Park Bo Gum is great; Both so pretty, they seem like teenagers who never age. I got butterflies when they shared a slight kiss, but I would love also someone for IU to be her partner someday—they look perfect together lol. One of the BTS members. All the cast members are great, and everyone is professional, even the kids. IU’s acting is amazing; everything is in her, and the same goes for Park Bo Gum. Highly recommended to watch. Great director too.

K8MD Mar 05 2025 5:49 pm My 2 Fave Korean Artists!!! The popcorn ready! Sooo excited for this! Uaenas are so happy! This is new, like binging 4 episodes per day!

Mao Feb 21 2025 9:59 pm The plot and the casting is already phenomenal, and what? it has 16 episodes and 4 updates a week!!!! We are being spoiled with this one. I hope it doesn't end up breaking our hearts (too much).

T n May 07 2024 3:26 pm Even trailer

Val torreggiani May 29 2023 2:36 am Am a huge kdrama fan, love watching Bo Gum if he is half as nice as the characters he portrays he will be a delightful young man. Where can I watch Thank You For Your Hard Work in England, has it reached netflix etc?

KDrama Lover May 23 2023 9:05 am I can't wait for the drama! IU and Park Bo Gum each resembles their characters so much... IU is a singer-songwriter and Ae-Soon is a poet, meanwhile Park Bo Gum is a diligent and sincere man and his character Gwan Sik is also the same! I love it when the actors have similarities with their characters <3 Good job director and writer for casting them :) This will be a hit!

Eric Moon Mar 09 2023 12:49 am Can't wait !

The actors, writer and director all great !

a Jan 30 2023 8:21 am i cant wait!!!!! dream director&writer combo... leads visually match too.

Jilli Jan 30 2023 4:15 am This sounds sweet and wholesome. The way Korean dramas used to be. Looking forward to watching them act together.

Shairli Jan 29 2023 2:58 pm At last! Looking forward.

loveiu Jan 28 2023 8:03 am Omooooo IU eonnie ?????

QQ Jan 28 2023 4:28 am The best pairing. Nation Boyfriend and Nation Sweet Heart. They both good at acting. Can't wait to see their chemistry. ?

yyy Jan 27 2023 12:26 pm Park Bo Gom's character looks so similar to his character from Reply 1988. But plot looks interesting !
