A highly anticipated Korean drama with a star-studded lineup, including lead actors, director, and writer, is creating a buzz with its whopping 60 billion KRW production cost (~41.3 million USD).

'When Life Gives You Tangerines' is set to premiere on Netflix on March 7 and has been the talk of the town.

The drama follows the story of Oh Ae Soon (played by IU), a determined young girl, and Yang Gwan Sik (portrayed by Park Bo Gum), an intelligent boy, who grew up in a small seaside village on Jeju Island. Spanning across the four seasons, the drama showcases the characters' lives and personal growth.

The Korean title "폭싹 속았수다 (Pokssak Sokassuda)" translates to "thank you for your hard work" in Jeju dialect. The English title 'When Life Gives You Tangerines' creatively plays on the common idiom, emphasizing the regional identity of Jeju.

Starring top Korean actors such as IU, Park Bo Gum, Na Moon Hee, Oh Jung Se, Yeo Hye Ran, and Jo Jae Yun, the drama promises a captivating storyline.

Backed by the talented writer Im Sang Chun and director Kim Won Seok, known for their acclaimed works, 'When Life Gives You Tangerines' offers a refreshing narrative.
