"When Life Gives You Tangerines," the K-drama starring IU and Park Bo Gum, has secured a spot at the top of Netflix Philippines' trending charts.
The series, praised for its emotional storytelling and strong performances, continues to resonate with Filipino audiences.
The drama's success is fueled by its heart-wrenching storyline, which chronicles the enduring love between Ae Sun (IU), a spirited young woman, and Gwan Sik (Park Bo Gum), a steadfast and devoted boy, against the picturesque backdrop of Jeju Island. Their lifelong journey, marked by both trials and triumphs, has captivated viewers, leaving them eagerly anticipating each new episode.
Adding to the fervent excitement, Park Bo Gum recently treated fans to a delightful glimpse behind the scenes.
Through his Instagram, he shared a series of candid photos from the set, including a particularly symbolic image of a chair with a distinctive pillow cushion – a detail that holds special significance for those immersed in the drama's narrative.
His simple caption, the hashtag #WhenLifeGivesYouTangerines, spoke volumes, further igniting the online buzz surrounding the series.
Netflix first unveiled the highly anticipated series in January 2024, followed by the release of the official trailer in February, building anticipation for its premiere. As of today, eight episodes have been released, with the series slated to conclude its run on March 28th.
This collaboration marks the second time IU and Park Bo Gum have shared the screen, following their work on the show "Thank You for Your Hard Work," further solidifying their on-screen chemistry and appeal.
