When life gives us tangerines instead of lemons, we might ask: why do we assume we were meant to make lemonade?
The phrase “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade” implies that difficulties (lemons, with their sourness) should be turned into something sweet and pleasant. But what if life isn’t handing us difficulties, just something unexpected? Tangerines are naturally sweet, vibrant, and full of life—perhaps they don’t need to be transformed at all.
Maybe life isn’t always about overcoming hardship or forcing something into a different form. Maybe it’s about recognizing the inherent goodness in what we receive, even if it wasn’t what we expected.
Tangerines remind us to embrace what’s given, not just as raw material for reinvention, but as something valuable in itself. Instead of looking for ways to “make the best of it,” perhaps the best move is to appreciate and savor it as it is.
In the next episode scenes Yotha appears to be telling Gun to wait for him. We can think it is after Gun telling him that he like’s him. But that does not make sense, does it? Specially after the “no, I don’t feel nothing” kiss that Gun saw, but Yotha does not know that Gun did. What would make sense, bear with me, is for Yotha telling Gun to wait for him to improve himself amd solve all of the messing things in his life (family issues and fighting people all the time) being able to deserve Gun. Other thing than this…it will be difficult to plausibly understand
I honestly can say that this was a good story, with good acting and direction. But, after the last episode I am in disbelieve that once again I do not liked how they (production of a Taiwanese BL) decided to end the story and wrap things up. It felt rushed, without depth and to much flashbacks and flashfowards. As a viewer I think that the way they found to end the story was a deservice for the story itself.
