It finishes airing this week and I just want to know if it’s worth watching…is it funny? Is there any romance? Does it get boring?

It starts off slow but I would say it’s worth it in the end
I also hated typhoon family and I feel like junho did better here

What did I just watch? What was that disaster of a movie?

finally got around to watching the highly rated when life gives you tangerines and…Ive got a lot of things to say. Let me start by saying that “slice of life” Kdramas are NOT My thing at all…i dont bond with them cause I don’t really get the emotions like that. This was the first slice of life drama ive watched and I’ll say it’s the best..i think. Definitely the first and last I’ll ever watch cause it’s definitely not my trope at all. The plot was…was there even a plot? No! They just narrated decades and decades of a particular family’s life and how they lived….i liked that it was really really realistic…thats good. The casting for this drama was PACKED! I knew 95% of the characters fr. Park Bo gum and IU deserve their flowers fr. This is my first time watching dramas with both of them and im highly impressed. With IU most especially. She had chemistry with the three men she acted with in this drama. I get why she wins awards for this film. The character yang gwan sik has got to be the BEST father and BEST husband in Kdrama history! He wasn’t a green flag…he was a fucking GREEN FOREST!! Literally held his family together fr. I loved their relationship with each of their children…i just liked they were they portrayed family in this. Honorable mention goes to the other captain and his son’s father in law…he was my favorite character as it was only in his scenes I got to laugh. The way they portrayed old people was funny asf! You think by coloring their hair grey, they’re automatically old? Nah. Youre telling me in 2025, IU is 52 and looks like IU??! How??! The first 10 episodes were BORING ASF! And then the last six episodes were interesting. It’s normally the opposite but whatever. This drama didnt get me emotionally the way I thought it would. In scenes where I thought I would cry, I didn’t. I wasn’t even sad at all. As for the highly anticipated questions; is this the best drama of 2025? For me? No. But I get why people say it is cause it’s qualified to be. Just not my cup of tea. Is this better than lovely runner? Hell nah. Lovely runner has a special place in my heart. They shouldn’t even be compared as they aren’t in the same genre. Is this worth its ratings? To an extent, yes. I get why it is, but it’s not to me. Did it alter my mental health? Not at all. I’m perfectly fine after watching it…and that isn’t supposed to be the case as people said it’s so sad. It’s sad, just not the worst Ktrauma I’ve seen. Someone had to die at some point for it to be realistic. Id even say it was a happy ending. Overall, it was wholesome, funny a-times, sad only at the end, and I guess it was worth it to an extent.
Rating:8.9/10
