The Netflix series  <when life gives you tangerines>  ended its month-long journey on the last Friday of March. Even a week after the show ended, the afterglow of the show continues to linger in Korea and around the world.

<When Life Gives You Tangerines> made a splash by breaking from Netflix's unique rule of releasing the entire series at once, instead releasing four episodes per week for each season.
Beginning in the first week of March 2025, four episodes were uploaded every Friday for four weeks, each themed around spring, summer, autumn and winter, with the final episode released on the fourth Friday of March, for a total of 16 episodes over the course of almost a month.
This is a relatively long format compared to existing Netflix series  <Melomovie> (released in February 2025), which consists of 10 episodes, and <The Trauma Code: Heroes on call> (released in January 2025), which gives viewers a more immersive experience over a longer period of time.

As a result, <When Life Gives You Tangerines> ranked number one in Bolivia, Hong Kong, etc. and second in Bangladesh, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, etc. and third in Japan, Pakistan, Vietnam, Paraguay, etc  in the Netflix global TV show category for the month of March.
