The show has become a great hit in such a short time, with an IMDb rating of 8.6.

Pachinko is based on the bestseller novel of the same name by journalist and author Min Jin Lee. It tackles the epic tale of four generations of a resilient and hopeful Korean immigrant family whose lives are irreversibly changed by forbidden love. The family’s journey to realize their dreams takes place throughout Korea, Japan, and America.
The show features Youn Yuh-jung, a critically acclaimed South Korean actress, who plays the main character Sunja. She is most recognized for her performance in the Academy award-winning film Minari, which follows a Korean immigrant family as they try to adjust to life in America. If you enjoy Pachinko, we recommend that you try Minari as well, as they both convey a similar story. What about Pachinko Season 2? Is the Apple TV series renewed or canceled?
