“In 1910, Japan annexed Korea. This annexation turned into a 35-year occupation, marked by the extraction of Korean resources and erasure of Korean culture, sexual slavery of Korean women, and the forced removal of millions of Korean citizens to places all over the globe, including Japan.

“Adapted from Min Jin Lee’s 2017 novel, Apple TV+’s latest drama series, Pachinko, is the story of one Korean family — or more accurately one woman and the family that grows around her — and how they endured the aftermath of Japanese occupation.

““Chapter One” begins in 1915 in Japanese-occupied Korea, opening on a distraught Korean woman who begs a mudang (Korean shaman woman) to save her unborn child from the early death that met her previous three children.”
