I love the orangy colored backdrop for this announcement, feels so apropos and cheeky. Netflix announced that it will be airing the Jeju Island set K-drama When Life Gives You Tangerines (Korean title Thank You for Your Hard Work) this year in 2024. The drama stars IU and Park Bo Gum as the leads and will go through eras with Moon So Ri and Park Hae Joon playing their grown up counterparts. The drama is high profile not just for the leads but also with the script from the writer of Fight for My Way and When the Camellia Blooms. This year definitely has quite a few big cast dramas on the way and I can’t wait!
Will definitely be watching this drama…
More than anything else I’m very curious to see what a romance directed by Kim Won Seok PD is going to look like.
Also, about time PBG is in the news for his main job and not the random influencer side-quests he’s been on since his discharge lmao
LMAO at influencer side quests. yeah, those were so random! 😂
not that i was complaining though 😂

I like the idea of two timelines.
IU is such a cutie pie.
2024 started off of quite a few interesting dramas. There seems more to come. I hope K drama will continue to treat me well. 🙏✌. Not a fan of the writer, but with IU and PBG as the lead actors, I can’t miss this drama.
This drama is scheduled for a 2025 release, not 2024.
The official working title being “When Life Gives You Tangerines” is so clever. It has the same sentiment of Jeju unique point as the korean title 폭싹속았수다, which is a jeju dialect, and tangerine is the signature fruit of jeju. It also contains the meaning of the drama itself. And it’s so effective, just throw the 🍊 emoji and people will know which drama we’re talking about.
Kinda sad that it’s not included in Netflix line up released today, but the wait will worth it with everything combined in this drama.
