Pachinko - Season 1 -
At its heart, Pachinko is a "tribute to survival". The narrative follows Sunja, a young Korean woman who relocates to Japan during the Japanese occupation of Korea—a period of intense hardship and systemic discrimination.
Season 1 of the Apple TV+ series Pachinko is a sweeping, multi-generational epic that adapts Min Jin Lee’s bestselling novel with a unique, time-hopping structure. Unlike the book's chronological flow, the show interlaces the early 20th-century life of Sunja with the 1989 corporate world of her grandson, Solomon. Pachinko - Season 1
