It is done really well! No wonder it won best drama at the Baeksang awards.
Loved this insight into "When Life Gives You Tangerines."
"🍊 The Meaning of the Title: What “폭싹 속았수다” Really Means
The title is a play on Jeju dialect. “폭싹 속았수다” roughly translates to “I totally fell for it” in English—but it carries layers of meaning. In Jeju dialect, it conveys deep emotional surrender, whether in love or fate. It’s poetic, nostalgic, and deeply local."

> 하지만 4.3 이후 제주도민들은 대부분 애순이가 겪은 것 이상으로 가슴이 콱 막히는 서러운 삶이었다. 애순은 소리 내어 울기라도 했지만 가족을 잃은 제주도민들은 빨갱이라는 손가락질을 받을까봐 제대로 소리 내어 울지도 못했다. (오마이뉴스)

1h×16集，分春夏秋冬四个篇章，每周放送一个篇章四集，放送形式和内容非常合拍，既充足酝酿情绪又避免观众一次性接受太多噎住
从角色设置到家庭结构甚至到英文标题显然让人想起十年前的催泪弹美剧《#ThisIsUS》。本剧能抚慰东亚女性代际创伤吗？
按放送周期追完一本满足。回顾整部剧，我印象最深的两处都是关于爱纯的：一次是春篇中年爱纯首次登场、看望初入职场的金明，两人因为工作和潜在的婚姻之间的矛盾发生了小小的口角，作为妈妈的爱纯带着笑意说：我希望你能认可我的人生也是有价值的。另一次是东篇、金明因无法管教年幼女儿向妈妈求助，爱纯一如既往地安抚孙女、打点家里，两人再次就鸡毛蒜皮的事说道了两句，爱纯还是带着笑意说：请不要带着同情的目光看着我。
单凭这两场戏，这部剧就永远可以排在任何家庭剧类目的必看列表上。
There's a conversation or thoughts she has in the show about wanting to do more that made me wonder if she was talking about her own career, if it resonated personally with her --- because she is always doing more. Successful in multiple arenas.
So much of it feels familiar in so many ways. I'm crying every episode.
