IU and Park Bo Gum are making fans even more excited for When Life Gives You Tangerines!
On March 22, IU’s YouTube channel 이지금 uploaded a new video featuring the two stars talking about their drama.
IU shared, “The big reason we’re here today is 'When Life Gives You Tangerines'. We have to talk about the drama we starred in together! How far have you watched?”
She then revealed, “I watched up to episode 13 last night and cried so much. When I woke up this morning, my eyes were swollen. The story now focuses on the older Ae Soon and Gwan Shik, and there were scenes I hadn’t seen before. They made me cry so much.”

Park Bo Gum, who watched up to episode 12, praised the drama, saying, “You did so well, and the senior actors really brought everything together. Every single character feels so alive, and I’m just grateful and in awe of that.”
IU then reassured fans, “We haven’t seen everything yet, have we? The older Ae Soon and Gwan Shik are amazing. There’s even a brief flashback of us in episode 13. It really feels like one continuous character.”
Park Bo Gum also talked about fans’ reactions to his screen time, sharing, “My friends and acquaintances congratulated me but also said they wished there were more scenes of my shaved-head days and Ae Soon’s short bob era."

She added, "They also wanted to see more of us raising Geum Myung and becoming parents. But at the same time, they’re curious about Ae Soon and Gwan Shik as parents. And we do keep appearing bit by bit, right? So I just want to tell everyone to stay tuned until the end.”
IU added, “We still appear frequently, right? The way our drama unfolds is quite unique. If anyone feels it’s a bit lacking, don’t worry—keep watching. We’ll continue to show up.”
Meanwhile, When Life Gives You Tangerines tells the life story of Ae Soon, a fearless rebel born in Jeju, and Gwan Shik, a devoted iron-willed man, as they navigate their adventurous lives across the four seasons.
