When Life Gives You Tangarines

In the 1950s, Jeju, Ae-Sun dreams beyond the boundaries of her world. Spirited and passionate, she devours books like lifelines, holding tightly to her dream of becoming a poet, even though poverty keeps her from school. She speaks her heart boldly, never hiding who she is. Gwan-Sik, quiet and steadfast, is her complete opposite, a hardworking young man who lets his actions speak. Though words come rarely to him, his love for Ae-Sun runs deep and unwavering. In a world that tries to silence dreams, Gwan-Sik becomes her quiet strength, and Ae-Sun his inspiration, their bond blooming gently through hardship and hope.
