  The English title, When Life Gives You Tangerines, was announced on January 30, 2023, and is a word play on the proverb " When life gives you lemons, make lemonade "; the fruit that grows in Jeju Island is mandarin orange, however. The Chinese title, Kǔjìngānlái Yùjiànnǐ (Chinese: 苦盡柑來遇見你; lit. ' I finally get to meet you after enduring hardship '), similarly plays on the Chinese proverb Kǔjìngānlái (Chinese: 苦盡甘來; lit. ' After the bitterness comes sweetness '); here, the Chinese character for either "mandarin orange" or "tangerine" (Chinese: 柑; pinyin: gān) replaces similarly sounded character for "sweetness" (Chinese: 甘; pinyin: gān) in the original proverb. Per Yonhap News Agency, a representative for Netflix's Globalisation Team stated that "When giving a title in English, the goal is to localize the creator's intention and cultural nuance in the original title to suit the culture of English-speaking countries ".
