Really enjoyed your review of the first episode, which I also enjoyed immensely. I’ve loved this show since it was first broadcast in March 2024 and it quickly became my favourite show of all time. There simply isn’t a weak point to it - every cast and crew member performs their role to an incredibly high standard. I can’t wait to see the rest of season 2 and I’m hopeful it will get some very much deserved recognition by way of awards.
I feel so sad when I think about the many Korean families who had to live through those terrible times. I saw the devil in the Japanese who were happy after the Sado mine, where Koreans were forced labor, was listed by UNESCO.
As a Zainichi Korean, the cake shop scene was a bit too much for me. It’s like all my mother and father’s anecdotes coming alive all at once. Interestingly, my grandmother, a first-generation Zainichi Korean, lived in a countryside near Hiroshima, but away from the epicentre. She remembers seeing the clouds and the flash. I empathised with Noa the most. It’s like I’m in his shoes. Especially when he was advised by a pastor (maybe he meant it as a joke) that he should just stop being a Korean. Edit: I wanted to stop being Korean to the point I no longer associated with other Koreans or even my mother, who was quintessentially Korean.
Do you still feel the same about not wanting to be Korean? My grandma was born during the Japanese occupation of Korea. I heard many horrific stories and brutality under Japanese rule. But I am glad that I didn't have to see her constantly being put under social discrimination even at old age. It would have broke my heart so much. I am kind of glad that she stayed in Korea. At least, Koreans in Korea after war didn't have to go through "racism" in our own land. Being Korean outside of Japan is kind of cool these days. People finally know what Korea is and now people don't see us as inferior species. Even 20 years ago, it was a different story. I also didn't want to be Korean when I lived in the States.
What did you think of Pachinko Season 2 Episode 1? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
I genuinely feel like I am watching of the greatest stories ever told on television
Loved the episode…engaging story, interesting/compelling characters and visually stunning to watch. What more can one ask for?
I was hoping two episodes would be available to watch
