On the morning of February 4, the “Next on Netflix 2025 Korea” event was held at the Fairmont Ambassador Hotel in Yeongdeungpo-Gu, Seoul. The event characterized several important directors and writers, including the writer Lee Na-Eun (Melo Movie), the director Kim Won-Seok (When Life gives Tangerines), the director Lee Il-Hyung (Karma), the director Yoo Young-Eun (Love in translation) and director Lee Chang-min (Cashero).
During the event, director Kim Won-Seok introduced “When Life DÃ Taderines”, “AE-SOON (played by IU) is an adorable character who, despite the poverty and difficulties of the life of the island, never gives up in cutouts for the sculpting. Gwan-Sik (played by Park Bo-Gum) is a strong and devoted man who would do anything for AE-Soon. The drama is an adventurous journey of how these two exceed the challenges of life both individually and together. “
When asked about chemistry between Park Bo-Gum and Iu, he jokingly replied “If I reveal too much in advance, it will not be so funny“But added with confidence,”They have the best imaginable chemistry. “
He further made fun of, “You will see a different side of Park Bo-Gum compared to what you are used to. As for IU, he will be able to show all the fascinating sides of herself that spectators have loved over the years. “
Unlike the current trend of shorter dramas with 8 ~ 12 episodes, “When life gives Mandarini” will take place at a more relaxed rhythm. The drama will be released in four episodes on 7 March, March 14, March 21 and March 28. Director Kim Won-Seok concluded saying “Since the episodes will come out in lots of four, I hope the spectators will look until the end before expressing their judgment. “
