I wonder if people who comment on Lee Minho speaking Korean realize that they do exactly the same thing as Japanese and Americans in Pachinko, being self centered and opressing other cultures. He doesn't have to speak English if he doesn't want to. This whole show is about respecting people who are different from you. If you liked the show, reflect on this
💯 and actually i have seen a lot korean celebrities (actors,idols, singers etc) speaks korean in interviews despite being fluent in English.the same with japanese celebrities.they did that because they are proud of their country/language not because they can't speak English.
I understand the importance of speaking Minho's own language, and I am deeply supportive of him and his career. However, if he wants to do more Hollywood and international movies, he will have to have more facility with English. It's simply that more people in the world speak English. If he wants to go to the next level, he's going to have to work on that. I would volunteer to help 😅😅. He is very hard working and can master conversational English if he wants.

@ernesto maceda But I like him as an actor, you have to understand what other people don't like others may... but to be honest my favorite 2 actors are Jung Hae-in and Park Seo-joon 👍I forgot to mention Jung Hae-in, he is real good and he is getting better and better.
I am Korean and want to say to Japanese folks that this drama is not about being anti Japan. Reconciliation starts from admission and confrontation as it has to built on the trust. I think most Koreans do not hate Japanese, and we all know that Japanese are exceptionally good people. But, there is some nature of isolation especially regarding history between Japan and Korea. We dont need to fight. Please enjoy this drama. It is not just about Korean immigrants but also about Japanese and in general all human beings struggling against the harshness of the history. It all happened and it can be a sound and healthy foundation of our relationship.
Basically I agree with you. However, there is clearly something to point out. Any human being can do bad things. It is important to acknowledge and correct past mistakes. Even now, Zainichi Koreans are living with enduring discrimination and contempt. This is not an individual mistake, it is a problem for society as a whole. There may be bad Koreans and there may be good Japanese. But this is not the point. Lee Min-jin, the author of this novel, said during a lecture: Man is not evil, but dishonesty is evil.
I'm 65 years old and my father is Korean and my mother is Japanese. I was born in Japan as Japanese citizen and living in Japan until I was 37. Now I'm living in USA for 28 years. I know both county history very well. I lived in Japan was so difficult for me. People were telling me I'm not Japanese and I'm not Korean either. I love this drama. I hope many Japanese watch this drama and they should learn true history because still Japanese education never teach true history. Sorry for my English is not good.

I have been an avid fan of Lee Min Ho since Boys Over Flowers. He has evolved into one of my favorite Korean actors. He has played so many different roles and characters and is amazing in all of them. And Minha is so beautiful and played her character perfectly. I cannot wait for the next episode, I am obsessed. All in all one of the best Korean series I have watched!!!

I dont know why some people in here questioning why a KOREAN man does'nt speak english. He is not obligated to speak any language when he is not comfortable in it. Obviously he knows and understand it but as a viewer I'd rather hear him speak on his native language where he can freely and deeply say his thoughts.

MinHo Oppa has a great sense of humour ❤😁 Whenever he's being interviewed with MinHa (being it in any interview), he's always making her & the interviewer laugh 🤣
Why do they criticize Lee Min Ho for his English? He knows English but maybe he is not confident enough to speak it. It's understandable and okay if he doesn't speak the language, that's where the interpreter comes in.
This may be my favorite Korean series of all time. The fourth episode was so powerful! I was on a roller coaster ride of emotions by the end of the episode.
You should watch Korean series such as Extracurricular, My Mister, Mr Sunshine, Healer, Goblin, Stranger, Signal, Reply1988, Move to heaven. These are masterpieces.
This production is not Korean, some members like the director are South Korean-born but they are American and live in the United States. But it connects us with the history of Korea and this series is really a masterpiece.
i love that the cast was so diverse and really true to the storyline, representing koreans, zanichi, and japanese people and the history behind all of it. the cast is equal parts new faces and talented actors that have been around - which i absolutely love. how amazing.
This is the best show in 2022. I could not believe it when my friend who was teaching English in Japan told me that Koreans were really discriminated against. But this show helped me to understand how horrible Japan was/is
@Kim Tak I dunno why all the Japanese ppl say same thing lol Look Germany! They admit their fault and apologize. You guys always claim it is fabricated without any ground 🤢
@Kim Tak 아니 일본은 진심으로 사과하지 않았어. 진정으로 뉘우치고 미안했더라면 매년 신사참배를 하지 않았겠지. 위안부 문제를 덮고 넘어가려 하지 않았겠지. 전범기 따위를 마스코트마냥 사용하지 않았겠지. 학생들에게 제대로 된 역사를 가르쳤겠지. 독일을 봐.. 보고 차이점이 뭔지 제대로 알아봐.
@Kim Tak 이해합니다.과거에 일본 총리들이 사과한 거 저는 알고 있어요.당신이 화난 것에 이해합니다.1965년에 합의했고, 2015년에 박근혜 정부와도 합의했잖아요.알고있어요.하지만 문제가 없는게 아니에요. 한국 일본 둘 다. 무슨 문제냐면, hate japan, hate korea 감정을 정치적으로 이용해서 양국 국민간 혐오를 조장하는 건 틀림 없는 사실이에요. 이건 한국, 일본 둘 다 변해야 된다고 생각해요. 암튼 bts좋아해주셔서 감사하네요. 좋은 하루되세요~^^
@Kim Tak 사과 했다고요? 그건 사과가 아닙니다 몇번이고 일본은 가짜 사과로 대한민국을 모욕했습니다 일본은 여전히 자기들이 수정한 역사를 아이들 젊은이들에게 가르치고 있습니다 그들은 여러 전쟁범죄를 하나도 인정하지 않고 있습니다 오히려 우리에게 도움을 줬다고 지금도 우릴 모욕하고 있습니다 그들의 정치인들이 뱉어내는 가짜 사과는 아무 의미가 없습니다 노골적으로 우릴 혐오하는 시위와 출판은 끊이질 않고 거기에 참여하지 않는 다른 일본인들은 방관합니다 방관자들이 돌을 던지지 않는다 해서 그들이 좋은사람 이라고요? 헛소리는 머릿속에서만 하시길 일본인이 얼마나 엉터리인지
She has gone through many difficult times on her own. This story is about humanity, injustice, prejudice, war crime, love, and resilience of history which depicts what Koreans have gone through from Japanese occupation
Really love this drama... It's different from that typical predictable kdrama out there .. waiting eagerly for the next episode. As always Lee Min Ho nailed his acting and so does rest of the actors.
Amazing series. The first 3 episodes are such delight. Waiting impatiently for the other episodes to know more about their story. I like this interview so much. The journalist asked accurate questions and the interviewees gives very interesting answers. I guess they were given the right amount of time in this one.
I read the book twice on 2017 sent by my niece to my daughter as a gift. I can’t believe it is on the screen now and watching it. I love the cast, they are all superb. The week is always exciting to wait for Friday to come. Reading the book is different from watching it on the screen. This drama will top this year’s performance in my opinion.❤️❤️❤️
I’ve watched the entire season twice already!! The entire cast are such great actors. Now that I know it’s been renewed for Season 2, I’m very excited to see more of how Hansu develops into the hardline man he is once he’s older. There’s are large GAP of his life to be filled. If there were no Season 2 to look forward to, I feel this story would have been severely lacking the development of Minho’s character, Hansu.
I hope to get a chance to see it soon. I work on a few different scenes as an extra. Really great experience. During filming many fans would hang around the film locations just to see Lee Min Ho.
Hello my gorgeous fan! Thank you so much for your good wishes, even your likes and comments! I believe they’re true! ENJOY WATCHING! I wish you a prosperous day!! From: Lee Minho ❤❤
This is such a great story!!! Love the series. The acting is phenomenal. Cannot wait for next Fridays episode to air. The Director is amazing at transitioning the story from the past to the 80s! Lee Min-ho looks like Elvis -So handsome.
The only Korean drama I ever watched on tv is LEE MIN HO TV shows, he make me laugh and cry, his parents must be proud. I mixed his music with my favorite English songs on Spotify and I enjoyed listening to it every day, I'm a new followers for Korean drama. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful interview. I just finished watching the 4th episode, and I can't wait for the next one!! Totally in love with Pachinko, amazing acting and script.
I loved the book and am loving the series. I echo the other commentators on how well done this interview is. Lengthy, but poignant, and the the interviewer does a fantastic job relating to the Asian cast. There aren’t any of those odd silences or awkward missed connections that one might usually see.
God this interview has been one of the best ones so far as it strikes the details of every thing, i was just super excited the whole time cuz everything they said resonated and made so much sense. I freaking loved this interview and the whole team of pachinko nailed it and i bet there would be no one else who could do justice to the roles other than the orignal cast.Soo said how 3 people acting as Sunja had to be different both in terms of looks and the vibes they gave cuz i think this very thing made a lot of difference espeacially for the audiance as i felt it too and could understand the reason behind it when she spoke above. And i just love the way how the team did not overlook things and went in detail about what ethnic food means to people and the emotion it holds including the native country,language , details like water - rain,ocean man chef's kiss! it deserves all the love.
The acting and story is beautifully done. After watching the first series I bought the book. It is beautifully written and incredibly sad, I cried so many times while reading it, but really recommend the book. Have become a huge fan of Lee Min Ho.

Naz did great and asked a range of fun to thoughtful questions. just a few years ago when the cast and director of Parasite were going around campaigning for awards season, reporters had no idea what to ask any of them ("congrats on the historic win, wHatT dOeS tHiiS aWwaRd meEan tO yoOu?")
@@jiwonkim3203 Lee Min Jin came to the US when she was seven, I think. Jin Ha came when he was about eight. Producer and screenwriter, Soo Huge, and two directors too. Anyone who came at such ages is considered 2nd gen to me. Yes, a large number of Koreans came to the US after the 1965 immigration reform. I came here in 79.
This is literally the show of the decade. I learnt so much about others hardships that made me seem mine so trivial...i hope more shows like ..Loved the cast...Lee min Ho fighting 💜💜
I would like to let all of you know that Yoon Yeojung is the coolest actress! Not only she is great in acting, but she is also a such wise and humorous lady whom I admire so much. I would also like to point out that she acts even much better in her other dramas and movies than Minari. Minari is nothing compared to other movies and dramas! She is an amazing actress and woman!

I have to say what an excellent interviewer you are. Well researched, respectful, and just great excellent questions & interaction. I'll wait to talk about this epic series since I've only seen eps 1. Thank you!
Seriously, in these times when movies and series are kinda uneducating the next generations, that, these, somehow show up in the Oscar charts, I can freely say that this show does not deserve an Oscar, but it’s the the Oscar that deserve to learn from this show.
Though I've not seen the whole episodes but the first three episodes are so amazing, I believes as the world keeps changing, everyone keeps trying to know more about their histories not in other to revenge,Lol😀 of course that's not it 😀but to get more familiar with their origins. And also,for others to learn about different cultures,I must say this Drama also is of help🥰 For someone like me who loves to explore other people's cultures I found this helpful and motivating 🥰 We all know about Africa colonization back then,I wish they can make that into drama also for every generations to see,cause this is US and our History it can't be buried👌. Big thanks and Kudos to all the Casts,you guys did a great job 👏👏👏👏👏 Please don't mind my English, cause it's not my mother tongue
Leemin Ho is the most perfect actor in Korea For me, the heirs and eternal monarch was a masterpiece of k drama I wish i could watch the pachinko en internet free bcz it’s impossible to download on my iPhone the tv apple Best wishes from Albania 🇦🇱
Pachinko is an amazing work of art. The series is so rich and deep, exploring the lives and traditions of these characters throughout different time periods. The American presenter saying she likes the beginning sequence the best is a bit like having an old bottle of red wine..drinking it and preferring the label. it is a great sequence however each episode is full of wonder.

As Hansu is a fictional character I would think that many secret love situations similar to Hansu and Sunja had transpired. Going through that with the understanding of Korean culture must have been a very painful and emotional time as well as a great one., especially for the woman. Survival is DEEP and tricky for all time.
I think it’s important for people to watch asking questions like “so how did history unfold so that no one had access to these types of historical contexts (or had access only to opposite fictional historical contexts)? and what factor”s” led up to most of the western society never even hearing about real Korea (or the version told by whoever was in charge after these wars). Not just a simple ‘well probably because of financial instability or country being ground zeroed to be weak after that invasion and wars.’ Because of the recent rise in kdrama/k cultural consumptions as well as information being more readily acquired, people can finally get to see the things that were left out and kept from them to this day. I have not seen much history papers written in English that is not based on skewed and biased information that was told while Korea was kept quiet and had to be focused on rebuilding up from the country and people literally being robbed for decades. And the important questions about “the root of why japanese tried so hard to diminish Koreans and their history” and how that relates directly to the truth that’s actually quite the opposite of their statements.
@@siiiiiuu7 that’s great! Really good luck on ur thesis. I’m sure it’s a real tough one to crack since this instance is one out of so many overwhelming amounts of categories of the ongoing issues rooted from that time. Stay focused! :) I hope for the day more people like you write thesis and the history can stand truthfully corrected. Maybe there will be a day seminars can be about what got corrected and people can know of the Korean culture the way they actually were instead of the lack of information people see in texts or papers. Good luck :)
@@siiiiiuu7 @MJ I clicked on this comment because I thought the same, too. Sadly, history gets told either in a lacking or a twisted manner especially in non-Western countries. I hope the time would come when people would be much more open to take interest and talk about such issues that are deeper than the surface level. Good luck on your thesis!
@@Flying-Chicken definitely a lot of asian countries like Indonesia was impacted too. As the history still doesn’t stand corrected or yet only superficially, a lot of asian countries still remain impacted as well as the western view towards Asia that was impacted due to how history unfolded after ww2. Besides the economical impact, the sociological and cultural impact as well… most asian countries have been impacted with history untold. We all need some finding and mapping out the truth. In this instance, I’m focusing on Korea because of this novel and tv series being set in korea. Even though there are similar categories of war crimes and sufferings at most victim countries, there are differences and different characteristics of what happened in korea. For instance the war and invasion of Korea started in the 1910, where as the attack on Indonesia was 1940 and on China 1937. As many people suffered at the war front countries, those acts were already in place and systematized only to worsen for at least 35 years in Korea. I’m not saying war sufferings should be compared at all in aspect to time or instances as all committed crimes were horrible. But there are contexts in Korean history that can help the characterization of that time period more accurately by looking specifically into what happened in Korea before, at, and after those 35 years. For example, during that 35 years, how there have been so much destructions and robbing and even fabrication of records and artifacts of ancient kingdoms of korea that had clearly been strong influence of what japanese advertise as to come from themselves or never existed. Pachinko also does a good job in explaining from what mentality they destroy invaluable artifacts that would have been the one and only in the world and showed signs of superiority. Some of which were found years later at museums in japan falsely labeled to have come from japan. They had 35 years of invasion and even after to prepare for tweaking historical records. That’s one of the many ways that makes it a current day problem. More of the reason why Korean history then couldn’t be told well to western society when records were hard to be saved. The historical contexts of what Korea meant to japan at then is one of the reasons for the different characteristics in destruction and cruelty they had towards Koreans. And as I wish for history to accurately represent all Asian countries too, I think it’s also important to be specific while we r at this topic about Korea. I also want people to get to know what Korea was before these times as I think that’s important to understand that even though Koreans suffered so much at the start of contemporary time, they themselves must know they had kingdoms and dynasties that were peaceful and had a one of kind of culture in Asia for millennia too before then.
To be honest, this seem to be like an Oscar worthy show, but I'm cringing to see it, as it is such a heavy story, and to see Minho being "bad", I don't think I am really prepared for...
@@leeminho760 i meant the Character Lee Minho is playing! I would never Dare to judge Lee Minho personally! He is one of the Best Korean Actors so far! I loved him in every Drama, which I have seen him!

Why do they criticize Lee Min Ho for his English? He knows English but maybe he is not confident enough to speak it. It's understandable and okay if he doesn't speak the language, that's where the interpreter comes in.
This may be my favorite Korean series of all time. The fourth episode was so powerful! I was on a roller coaster ride of emotions by the end of the episode.
You should watch Korean series such as Extracurricular, My Mister, Mr Sunshine, Healer, Goblin, Stranger, Signal, Reply1988, Move to heaven. These are masterpieces.
@@emiliofermi9994 I've watched them all. So far, I like this one best 👌.
@@emiliofermi9994 Goblin is Garbage
@@emiliofermi9994 i've watched most of it but Goblin.. Did not get my attention sorry
This production is not Korean, some members like the director are South Korean-born but they are American and live in the United States. But it connects us with the history of Korea and this series is really a masterpiece.
i love that the cast was so diverse and really true to the storyline, representing koreans, zanichi, and japanese people and the history behind all of it. the cast is equal parts new faces and talented actors that have been around - which i absolutely love. how amazing.
Lee Min Ho was so great in that show, I thought he would be eatin by how talented the cast are but boy he really did good!!!! Excited for season 2
this show is amazing! I can’t wait for the next episode.
This is the best show in 2022. I could not believe it when my friend who was teaching English in Japan told me that Koreans were really discriminated against. But this show helped me to understand how horrible Japan was/is
@Kim Tak I dunno why all the Japanese ppl say same thing lol Look Germany! They admit their fault and apologize. You guys always claim it is fabricated without any ground 🤢
@Kim Tak 아니 일본은 진심으로 사과하지 않았어. 진정으로 뉘우치고 미안했더라면 매년 신사참배를 하지 않았겠지. 위안부 문제를 덮고 넘어가려 하지 않았겠지. 전범기 따위를 마스코트마냥 사용하지 않았겠지. 학생들에게 제대로 된 역사를 가르쳤겠지. 독일을 봐.. 보고 차이점이 뭔지 제대로 알아봐.
@Kim Tak 이해합니다.과거에 일본 총리들이 사과한 거 저는 알고 있어요.당신이 화난 것에 이해합니다.1965년에 합의했고, 2015년에 박근혜 정부와도 합의했잖아요.알고있어요.하지만 문제가 없는게 아니에요. 한국 일본 둘 다. 무슨 문제냐면, hate japan, hate korea 감정을 정치적으로 이용해서 양국 국민간 혐오를 조장하는 건 틀림 없는 사실이에요. 이건 한국, 일본 둘 다 변해야 된다고 생각해요.
암튼 bts좋아해주셔서 감사하네요. 좋은 하루되세요~^^
@Kim Tak 저도 영어 사용하는게 맞는 건데, 제가 영어를 못해서...ㅋㅋㅋ 그래도 유튜브에 번역 기능 있으니까 그걸로 봐주세요 ㅋㅋ
@Kim Tak 사과 했다고요? 그건 사과가 아닙니다 몇번이고 일본은 가짜 사과로 대한민국을 모욕했습니다
일본은 여전히 자기들이 수정한 역사를 아이들 젊은이들에게 가르치고 있습니다 그들은 여러 전쟁범죄를 하나도 인정하지 않고 있습니다 오히려 우리에게 도움을 줬다고 지금도 우릴 모욕하고 있습니다 그들의 정치인들이 뱉어내는 가짜 사과는 아무 의미가 없습니다
노골적으로 우릴 혐오하는 시위와 출판은 끊이질 않고 거기에 참여하지 않는 다른 일본인들은 방관합니다 방관자들이 돌을 던지지 않는다 해서 그들이 좋은사람 이라고요? 헛소리는 머릿속에서만 하시길 일본인이 얼마나 엉터리인지
She has gone through many difficult times on her own. This story is about humanity, injustice, prejudice, war crime, love, and resilience of history which depicts what Koreans have gone through from Japanese occupation
Really love this drama... It's different from that typical predictable kdrama out there .. waiting eagerly for the next episode. As always Lee Min Ho nailed his acting and so does rest of the actors.
I so love this actress! She is so wise, has humility, speaks English very well and is in great works!
Lee min ho and kim minha are Perfectly match together.. Want them do more dramas together
One of the best interviews I have watched. And considering the storyline and the cast of the show, Pachinko is a masterpiece.
Lee min ho is still wonderful both his personality and speaking in the interview, thanks.
Amazing series. The first 3 episodes are such delight. Waiting impatiently for the other episodes to know more about their story. I like this interview so much. The journalist asked accurate questions and the interviewees gives very interesting answers. I guess they were given the right amount of time in this one.
If you get the chance, read the book. It is one of the best books of the 21st century. I will say the miniseries does a great job of telling the story
@@jamesrawlins735 I did read the book too.
I read the book twice on 2017 sent by my niece to my daughter as a gift. I can’t believe it is on the screen now and watching it. I love the cast, they are all superb. The week is always exciting to wait for Friday to come. Reading the book is different from watching it on the screen. This drama will top this year’s performance in my opinion.❤️❤️❤️
I love the way of Youn Yuh-Jung explained her thought in English, very smart indeed, thanks.
I love the actress! lee Minho is quite famous in k-drama, but the actress was fairly new to me. and I love how she acts and the chemistry as well.
She’s an amazing interviewer
Gripping story and stunningly beautiful acting and cinematography. I'm loving this!
Great interview
Love when interviewer comes prepared: asks meaningful questions and is truly interested in answers and people she interviews
I’ve watched the entire season twice already!! The entire cast are such great actors. Now that I know it’s been renewed for Season 2, I’m very excited to see more of how Hansu develops into the hardline man he is once he’s older. There’s are large GAP of his life to be filled. If there were no Season 2 to look forward to, I feel this story would have been severely lacking the development of Minho’s character, Hansu.
I hope to get a chance to see it soon. I work on a few different scenes as an extra. Really great experience. During filming many fans would hang around the film locations just to see Lee Min Ho.
The leading lady is so beautiful, she look so innocent
Hello my gorgeous fan! Thank you so much for your good wishes, even your likes and comments! I believe they’re true! ENJOY WATCHING! I wish you a prosperous day!!

@@leeminho760 I doubt it is the real LMH…he uses his private lines !!!
This is such a great story!!! Love the series. The acting is phenomenal. Cannot wait for next Fridays episode to air. The Director is amazing at transitioning the story from the past to the 80s! Lee Min-ho looks like Elvis -So handsome.
Love this interviewer and this whole interview as a whole. So flawless and elegant. I could watch this over and over ago.
I'm impressed with korean actress who can also speak fluently English
The only Korean drama I ever watched on tv is LEE MIN HO TV shows, he make me laugh and cry, his parents must be proud. I mixed his music with my favorite English songs on Spotify and I enjoyed listening to it every day, I'm a new followers for Korean drama. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful interview. I just finished watching the 4th episode, and I can't wait for the next one!! Totally in love with Pachinko, amazing acting and script.
I loved the book and am loving the series. I echo the other commentators on how well done this interview is. Lengthy, but poignant, and the the interviewer does a fantastic job relating to the Asian cast. There aren’t any of those odd silences or awkward missed connections that one might usually see.
God this interview has been one of the best ones so far as it strikes the details of every thing, i was just super excited the whole time cuz everything they said resonated and made so much sense. I freaking loved this interview and the whole team of pachinko nailed it and i bet there would be no one else who could do justice to the roles other than the orignal cast.Soo said how 3 people acting as Sunja had to be different both in terms of looks and the vibes they gave cuz i think this very thing made a lot of difference espeacially for the audiance as i felt it too and could understand the reason behind it when she spoke above. And i just love the way how the team did not overlook things and went in detail about what ethnic food means to people and the emotion it holds including the native country,language , details like water - rain,ocean man chef's kiss! it deserves all the love.
I'm amazed to see the grandmother speaking so good English......
The acting and story is beautifully done. After watching the first series I bought the book. It is beautifully written and incredibly sad, I cried so many times while reading it, but really recommend the book. Have become a huge fan of Lee Min Ho.
Lee Minho is so gorgeous!!!!

Loved hearing from so many involved in the show ❤ I was hoping to hear from sanghyun too but that’s okayyy. Really looking forward to the next season.
Naz did great and asked a range of fun to thoughtful questions. just a few years ago when the cast and director of Parasite were going around campaigning for awards season, reporters had no idea what to ask any of them ("congrats on the historic win, wHatT dOeS tHiiS aWwaRd meEan tO yoOu?")
Everyone involved in this project are the 2nd gen Koreans. It’s amazing how well they all expressed and portrayed core value of the Koreans.
They are actually 1st Gen or immigrant. Most Koreans were not allowed visas into USA until 1970s.
@@jiwonkim3203 Lee Min Jin came to the US when she was seven, I think. Jin Ha came when he was about eight. Producer and screenwriter, Soo Huge, and two directors too. Anyone who came at such ages is considered 2nd gen to me. Yes, a large number of Koreans came to the US after the 1965 immigration reform. I came here in 79.
She is a legend and great actress. I’ve seen many of her movies.
want season 2. IM IN love with this season ❤️❤️😘

This is literally the show of the decade. I learnt so much about others hardships that made me seem mine so trivial...i hope more shows like ..Loved the cast...Lee min Ho fighting 💜💜
I am so glad you have a translator and Sun Ja speaks English so well.
This interview was amazing. Thank you very much.
I would like to let all of you know that Yoon Yeojung is the coolest actress!
Not only she is great in acting, but she is also a such wise and humorous lady whom I admire so much.
I would also like to point out that she acts even much better in her other dramas and movies than Minari. Minari is nothing compared to other movies and dramas!
She is an amazing actress and woman!

My husband and I love this show. Well written and acted
Lee Minho, the only reason I’ll watch any Kdrama as I prefer to be entertained by books
This series is a masterpiece, a beautiful masterpiece like the book. Sunja young and older are both beautiful. ❤️
I have to say what an excellent interviewer you are. Well researched, respectful, and just great excellent questions & interaction. I'll wait to talk about this epic series since I've only seen eps 1. Thank you!
Great interview... many thoughtful questions made the movie more relevant and enjoyable!
인터뷰이가 정말 많은 준비를 하신 것이 보입니다. 인터뷰 정말 감사합니다!!!
Seguindo Panchinko espetacular Lee Min Ho talentoso abençoado Ator ,,, 🇰🇷🇧🇷👏👏👏
Gosh MIN HA,JIN HA AND ANNA'S ACCENT IN ENGLISH IS JUST BOOM 💥💥💥💥🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Seriously, in these times when movies and series are kinda uneducating the next generations, that, these, somehow show up in the Oscar charts, I can freely say that this show does not deserve an Oscar, but it’s the the Oscar that deserve to learn from this show.
Min ha and Min ho 😁 interesting 😁
This interview is so amazing!
Though I've not seen the whole episodes but the first three episodes are so amazing, I believes as the world keeps changing, everyone keeps trying to know more about their histories not in other to revenge,Lol😀 of course that's not it 😀but to get more familiar with their origins. And also,for others to learn about different cultures,I must say this Drama also is of help🥰
For someone like me who loves to explore other people's cultures I found this helpful and motivating 🥰
We all know about Africa colonization back then,I wish they can make that into drama also for every generations to see,cause this is US and our History it can't be buried👌.
Big thanks and Kudos to all the Casts,you guys did a great job 👏👏👏👏👏
Please don't mind my English, cause it's not my mother tongue
"PACHINKO" NÃO VEJO A HORA DE VER O RESTO DA SÉRIE...GOOD!!! 🙏🤩😍🌻🤗🥰😉
Em qual plataforma posso ver Pachinco,por favor?
Looking forward to the ongoing work of this masterpiece! Great work!
Maravilhosos atores talentosos Panchinko 🇧🇷👏👏👏
Leemin Ho is the most perfect actor in Korea
For me, the heirs and eternal monarch was a masterpiece of k drama
I wish i could watch the pachinko en internet free bcz it’s impossible to download on my iPhone the tv apple
Best wishes from Albania 🇦🇱
Lee Min Ho Congrats For Your "Pachinko"❤
Also, excellent interpreter, so articulate and catching the subtleties so well ❤️
Beautifully done interview. 2-way Thoughtfulness.
Love this drama so much!!! It's amazing!!
Where can I watch it with eng subs
Pachinko is an amazing work of art. The series is so rich and deep, exploring the lives and traditions of these characters throughout different time periods. The American presenter saying she likes the beginning sequence the best is a bit like having an old bottle of red wine..drinking it and preferring the label. it is a great sequence however each episode is full of wonder.
minha kim makeup is beautiful in this interview
This drama is very impressive and amazing, wonderful
What a great interview.

Hello fake LMHs… you have to communicate: Lee minho? Lee min Ho? …in the same comment???
Nice speech by Solomon, very deep and relatable topic
I like how LMH picks dark series, darn.This kind of theme is what get me into Kdrama.
Great interview. Finally the interviewer did her research first. 💖
This movie is very good with very good story, we love so much, lots of love from india. You and your acting was awesome We always miss you😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
As Hansu is a fictional character I would think that many secret love situations similar to Hansu and Sunja had transpired. Going through that with the understanding of Korean culture must have been a very painful and emotional time as well as a great one., especially for the woman. Survival is DEEP and tricky for all time.
I think it’s important for people to watch asking questions like “so how did history unfold so that no one had access to these types of historical contexts (or had access only to opposite fictional historical contexts)? and what factor”s” led up to most of the western society never even hearing about real Korea (or the version told by whoever was in charge after these wars). Not just a simple ‘well probably because of financial instability or country being ground zeroed to be weak after that invasion and wars.’ Because of the recent rise in kdrama/k cultural consumptions as well as information being more readily acquired, people can finally get to see the things that were left out and kept from them to this day. I have not seen much history papers written in English that is not based on skewed and biased information that was told while Korea was kept quiet and had to be focused on rebuilding up from the country and people literally being robbed for decades. And the important questions about “the root of why japanese tried so hard to diminish Koreans and their history” and how that relates directly to the truth that’s actually quite the opposite of their statements.
THIS, THIS, THIS. I'm currently working on a university thesis about this very topic. Thank you for addressing it.
@@siiiiiuu7 that’s great! Really good luck on ur thesis. I’m sure it’s a real tough one to crack since this instance is one out of so many overwhelming amounts of categories of the ongoing issues rooted from that time. Stay focused! :) I hope for the day more people like you write thesis and the history can stand truthfully corrected. Maybe there will be a day seminars can be about what got corrected and people can know of the Korean culture the way they actually were instead of the lack of information people see in texts or papers. Good luck :)
@@MJ-xy2wn Thanks for your kind words of encouragement. I hope your vision will become reality one day in the near future. 🤍
@@siiiiiuu7 @MJ I clicked on this comment because I thought the same, too. Sadly, history gets told either in a lacking or a twisted manner especially in non-Western countries. I hope the time would come when people would be much more open to take interest and talk about such issues that are deeper than the surface level. Good luck on your thesis!
@@Flying-Chicken definitely a lot of asian countries like Indonesia was impacted too. As the history still doesn’t stand corrected or yet only superficially, a lot of asian countries still remain impacted as well as the western view towards Asia that was impacted due to how history unfolded after ww2. Besides the economical impact, the sociological and cultural impact as well… most asian countries have been impacted with history untold. We all need some finding and mapping out the truth. In this instance, I’m focusing on Korea because of this novel and tv series being set in korea. Even though there are similar categories of war crimes and sufferings at most victim countries, there are differences and different characteristics of what happened in korea. For instance the war and invasion of Korea started in the 1910, where as the attack on Indonesia was 1940 and on China 1937. As many people suffered at the war front countries, those acts were already in place and systematized only to worsen for at least 35 years in Korea. I’m not saying war sufferings should be compared at all in aspect to time or instances as all committed crimes were horrible. But there are contexts in Korean history that can help the characterization of that time period more accurately by looking specifically into what happened in Korea before, at, and after those 35 years. For example, during that 35 years, how there have been so much destructions and robbing and even fabrication of records and artifacts of ancient kingdoms of korea that had clearly been strong influence of what japanese advertise as to come from themselves or never existed. Pachinko also does a good job in explaining from what mentality they destroy invaluable artifacts that would have been the one and only in the world and showed signs of superiority. Some of which were found years later at museums in japan falsely labeled to have come from japan. They had 35 years of invasion and even after to prepare for tweaking historical records. That’s one of the many ways that makes it a current day problem. More of the reason why Korean history then couldn’t be told well to western society when records were hard to be saved. The historical contexts of what Korea meant to japan at then is one of the reasons for the different characteristics in destruction and cruelty they had towards Koreans. And as I wish for history to accurately represent all Asian countries too, I think it’s also important to be specific while we r at this topic about Korea. I also want people to get to know what Korea was before these times as I think that’s important to understand that even though Koreans suffered so much at the start of contemporary time, they themselves must know they had kingdoms and dynasties that were peaceful and had a one of kind of culture in Asia for millennia too before then.
also not the interviewer saying its really hard for us too when min ha was talking abt her grandma suffering during that time...
not her comparing first world problems to literal colonization
To be honest, this seem to be like an Oscar worthy show, but I'm cringing to see it, as it is such a heavy story, and to see Minho being "bad", I don't think I am really prepared for...
Hansu isn't bad actually ... he is a good person, who does a bad job and is a little bit selfish :D
@@leeminho760 i meant the Character Lee Minho is playing! I would never Dare to judge Lee Minho personally! He is one of the Best Korean Actors so far! I loved him in every Drama, which I have seen him!
@@leeminho760 Wow, wouldn't it be nice if the real Lee Minho would answer 😊, but that is just a pipe dream...if it's his staff, fantastic-greetings and thanks for your hard work, if it's a fan-base, greetings and thanks for your hard work and if it's a fan answering as Lee Minho, well greetings and good for you by stepping in such shoes😉 Anyway as his fan all the way from a small country of Slovenia...Love all your work Lee Minho, keep up the good work!❤
I agree this looks like a great series but it's hard to watch heavy stories
