Pachinko And What's Making Us Happy

<em>Pachinko </em>is a deeply intimate, yet hugely expansive multi-generational historical saga on Apple TV+. Adapted from Min Jin Lee's 2017 novel, the series features several intersecting characters and storylines, but focuses mainly on Sunja, a Korean woman whose family suffers under Japanese imperial rule. With an impressive cast including Lee Min Ho and Oscar-winner Yuh-Jung Youn, <em>Pachinko </em>depicts Sunja throughout her life amid conditions of poverty, bigotry and institutionalized injustice against Koreans.
