The march of time continues through the final episodes of When Life Gives You Tangerines, a series that has deftly chronicled the swift but turbulent evolution of South Korea through the lives of one hardy Jeju Island family.

Fishmonger Oh Ae-sun (IU, My Mister) and fisherman Yang Gwan-sik (Park Bo-gum, Record of Youth) grew up on Jejuโ€™s rocky shores in the 1950s, fell in love in its sweeping canola fields in the 1960s and raised their family in an old countryside house in the 1970s and beyond.
