Actor Oh Jung-se makes a brief yet unforgettable appearance in the Netflix series When Life Gives You Tangerines(폭싹 속았수다).

Premiering on March 7, the drama—written by Im Sang-chun and directed by Kim Won-seok—features Oh Jung-se as Byeong-cheol, the stepfather of Ae-soon (IU).

🎭 A Role Full of Depth

Oh Jung-se masterfully brings Byeong-cheol to life, portraying a character torn between concern and selfishness. After the passing of his wife, he fears that Ae-soon might abandon her younger siblings, leaving them alone.

⭐ A Brief But Memorable Performance
