When Life Gives You Tangerines#
The same household, three generations of expectation#
Before you watch#
- watch the assigned episodes
- track one expectation — about duty, marriage, or work — that a parent holds and a child eventually doesn’t
What we’re testing#
We follow the household across its whole timeline rather than any single episode, asking at each point what “family” was assumed to require, and who bore the cost of meeting that requirement.
Connect one family decision to the wider economic change happening around it.
After this screening#
Keep these notes on generational change in view for week 7 (education) and week 9 (1980s Korea) — both return to family life under different pressures.
