It seems that the actors are also deeply immersed in "When Life Gives You Tangerines."

On the 6th, Gong Hyo-jin posted a photo on her Instagram story with the short phrase "It was truly beautiful." In the released photo, it looks like Aesoon and Kwan-sik from "When Life Gives You Tangerines" are walking side by side in a field of forsythia flowers.

In particular, Gong Hyo-jin has a deep connection with writer Im Sang-chun, who wrote "When Life Gives You Tangerines," as his representative work 'When the Camellia Blooms' is also written by Im Sang-chun. His writing, which has the scent of humanity, has received much love, and Gong Hyo-jin has also fully embraced her role.

Not only Gong Hyo-jin but also actor Kim Ji-hoon certified his viewership of "When Life Gives You Tangerines" through personal social media on the 7th. He appeared very moved, stating, "This is not merely a life drama, it's just life itself," and added, "Thank you for creating such a work," showing his deep emotions.

In response, netizens reacted with comments like, "Surely, it’s a life drama for the actors too," "Writer Im Sang-chun, please ease the bride's priority," and "Wow, the truly moving moments seem to be the same for everyone; I hope many such dramas come out."

Meanwhile, "When Life Gives You Tangerines" is a work that unfolds the adventure-filled life of Aesoon, a 'desirable rebel' born in Jeju, and Kwan-sik, a 'foolish iron.' It features actors IU, Park Bo-gum, Moon So-ri, Park Hae-joon, and Kim Sun-ho.

The solid acting skills of trusted actors, the flawless storytelling of writer Im Sang-chun, and director Kim Won-seok's detailed directing have enhanced immersion with a delicate touch, earning much love.

Could this be why, in the integrated drama section of the TV-OTT subjectivity survey for the first week of April, 'When Life Gives You Tangerines' topped the list for five consecutive weeks, while Netflix's newly released 'Karma' ranked second, showcasing that Netflix dramas occupied both the first and second positions.
