Actress Kang Myung Joo performance in “When Life Gives You Tangerines,” which had become her final work before her passing has gained attention!

Kang Myung Joo passed away on February 27 after a battle with cancer at the age of 53. Her daughter shared the news on social media on February 28.

Her final work was the Netflix drama “When Life Gives You Tangerines,” where she left a strong impression as Bu-Young, the mother of Yeong-Beom and the potential mother-in-law of Geumnyeong (played by IU).

A netizen pointed out that in an earlier-released episode, a scene featuring Geumnyeong and Buyong was accompanied by “Marcello Oboe Adagio,” a piece often played at funeral masses. The netizen commented, “I thought, ‘Why is funeral mass music playing here?’ and later learned that she passed away in late February after battling cancer. This must not be a coincidence but rather the production team’s way of paying tribute and expressing condolences.”

Her performance in the drama gained attention as many fans praised her for the stellar acting, many are sad she never got to see the great reception “When Life Gives You Tangerines” has been receiving since it began airing.

Meanwhile, the finale of “When Life Gives You Tangerines” aired on March 28.
