A MUST WATCH!!!
I am watching asian dramas for more than 6 years now but i never wrote a single reivew or even rated a drama but WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU TANGERINES changed my entire viewoint on life watching this felt like i am watching my parents and everything they did for me in my 22 years of life it was like my entire childhood and all the struggles of my parents that i ignored or never understood flashing in front of my eyes i have seen my father rise from from nothing on his name to giving his children the best life he could, i have never saw him doing a single thing for him even once i cried so much watching gwan sik as he reminded me of all the scarifices my father made for me and the family. As we grow up we tend to forget all the things that our parents did for us just like gweng myeong and eun myeong but when they reliased that their father won't be here anymore they remembered all the things they once forgot. This is a reminder that we should always remeber that our parents scarificed their dreams to gives us a clear sky so that we can dream and achieve our dreams.My heart just broke when gwan sik died i can never imagine my father leaving me behind so early i want him to live all his dreams and be happy even if won't be able to compensate the things that he scarificed for us, now i can never be the same again this drama changed me somehow seeing ae sun and gwan sik taggle all the problems in life just so they can give thier children everything was so hearbreaking they scarificed so much for their children and then also they blamed them fot not having enough money i get it that it is tough to not able to celebrate a grand birthday or have fancy things but we should understand that our parents have given more than they could provide for us scarificing thier needs and keeping ours first just like ae sun dropped her college dream for her child and gwan sik drowned himself in work to provide for them without even thinking about himself no matter how much pain he was in he never took a leave even when his youngest son died because he can't take more than 3 days. I cried so much thinking that, it reminded me that even when my father was sick even when her mother died or even when he got into accident and his hand broke he still went for his work. I bawled my eyes after finishing the last episode even writting this review is making me cry again but i still choose to do that, I don't care what other people think but in my opinion everyone should watch this drama once it made me respect my parents and makes me proud way more than i already did.
Gwan sik was a great husband and a kind person everyone respected him and ae sun as they were always kind to people that is the reason why even if eun myeong went to jail everyone was helping him beacuse his dad has always been their for people, when dong myeong died everyone in the village helped them by sending food to their house, when they were struggling their landlord put rice in her jar without them asking, our parents good deeds always comes to us as well this drama taught to always do good deeds even if it is not benefitting you in any way so that we can have a peaceful life without regrets.
