When Oranges Fall
Ko was a boy who adored oranges more than anything in the world—but not just any oranges. They had to be from the tree next door. No other oranges tasted so good or made him as happy. Fragrant, sweet, delicious—everything…
Set in a sun-drenched coastal town in the late 1990s, *When Oranges Fall* is a tender coming-of-age romance that follows two boys named Ko—Ko Neung (Progress) and Ko Song (Almond)—who are neighbors unexpectedly thrown together when one family moves in next door. Ko Neung, a quiet and observant boy with a deep love for the sweetest oranges from his neighbor's tree, finds his orderly world disrupted by the cheerful, clumsy Ko Song. What begins as playful clashes and shared meals slowly blossoms into a sweet, innocent bond as they navigate high school, friendship, and the first flutterings of love. Through bicycle rides, late-night window conversations, and the symbolic exchange of oranges, the series beautifully captures the quiet, aching sweetness of young love—tender, awkward, and full of hope. Based on a beloved web novel and directed with a nostalgic, cinematic eye, *When Oranges Fall* is a comforting hug of a drama that celebrates the beauty of growing up and finding your person in the simplest of moments.
