a beautiful display of love and life throughout generations

I want to keep this short because I fear I might go on too long about this masterpiece of a drama...

This is about the purest forms of love and resilience throughout generations of a family. This is a character-driven drama, and it works because I fell in love with the characters from ep 1. I laughed, cried, and got angry with them, as it goes with life and its many ups and downs. Sometimes I related with them, but other times, I didn't, and that made me fall in love with them even more. The drama is about all the different forms of love that one can have, whether it's family love, romantic, or even self-love. This felt like a memoir brought to life, and it was a breathtaking journey to join.

What I'll take from this the most is the love between a child and its parents. This tugged at my heartstrings, and I don't think I'll have to rewatch this any time soon, but that's only because I'll remember several scenes and I'll take its lessons with me.

MUCH LOVE to the amazing cast, staff, and production to making this gem. no notes, prepare many boxes of tissues as you board this amazing ship that is When Life Gives You Tangerines.
