Soyeon's taste, hailing from Jeju Island, was 'Our Blues' rather than 'When Life Gives You Tangerines.'
On the 16th, the YouTube channel 'Sung Si-kyung's Meet' featured guests Jo Jaez, Soyeon, and Im Seulong. During this time, the three engaged in a natural conversation while warming up the atmosphere with makgeolli as Sung Si-kyung prepared a meal.
Soyeon said, 'I am a Jeju person. But when I say I am from Jeju Island, people say, 'If you came to Seoul at 8, you're not a Jeju person.' Please think about it. I was born in Jeju Island.' Sung Si-kyung chimed in, saying, 'If you were there until you were 8, then you're a Jeju person.' Soyeon responded, 'Then let's say I'm a Jeju person,' eliciting laughter.
Later, Sung Si-kyung, who is also from Jeju Island, asked Soyeon about her thoughts on the Netflix series 'When Life Gives You Tangerines,' and Soyeon firmly replied, 'But I was a bit disappointed.' Taken aback by this comment, Sung Si-kyung quipped, 'Let's edit that out,' cleverly diffusing the situation, while Im Seulong laughed, saying, 'That's risky.'
Soyeon immediately continued her explanation, saying, 'There is a reason. Being from Jeju Island, I thought there would be a lot of dialect. When I watched 'Our Blues,' it was so funny that people couldn't understand. It was really fun to interpret that for someone next to me. I wanted to say, 'You don't know what that means, do you?' But surprisingly, there wasn't much dialect.'
Meanwhile, 'When Life Gives You Tangerines' is a romance drama set against the backdrop of Jeju Island, gaining attention for the meeting of IU and Park Bo-gum. The work has received acclaim for its emotional story and aesthetic direction.
