Drama series debuts March 25 on Apple TV+
Apple's first tri-lingual original series—with dialogue in English, Korean, and Japanese—is based on the acclaimed best-selling 2017 novel of the same name by Min Jin Lee that tells the decades-spanning story of four generations of a Korean family that emigrates to Japan (with some of the series also taking place in America). First ordered to series over three years ago (but delayed, like everything else, by the pandemic), Pachinko comes from Soo Hugh (The Terror) and is the first TV series directed by acclaimed filmmaker/video essayist Kogonada (Columbus, the aforementioned After Yang), who splits the eight episodes with director Justin Chon. The cast is led by Youn Yuh-jung (a recent Oscar winner for Minari), Korean superstar Lee Min-ho, and Jin Ha (Devs, Love Life). Three episodes stream on launch day followed by weekly installments.
