PSA: people need to watch Pachinko (Apple TV). It’s such a phenomenally made and superbly acted show, using a unique storytelling device and powered by such emotionally loaded content. A historical drama exploring the Korean POV during WW2/Japan occupation, which tv doesn’t usually explore. It’s really slipping past critics and the public unnoticed and I’d hate to see it cancelled for not getting the traction when it needed it, to be able to finish this story 😭

Best husband and wife in K-drama/series

1. Baek isak and sunja "Pachinko"

Their relationship was so pure and gentle. Yes, at first, they were basically stranger when they got married, but they started their relationship with great purpose. To help each other and care for each other. Isak was an amazing husband and father, loved Noa like his own son, and loved Sunja unconditionally. Sunja is such a dedicated wife and mother. Raised both of her sons while Isak was in prison and patiently waited and prayed for Isak to return.

2. Do Hyunsoo and Cha Jiwon "flower of evil"

Hyunsoo, who constantly tries to avoid Jiwon, starts to open up and be a kind husband to Jiwon. He is a loving father to Eunha, even though he's terrified at first. Jiwon is eager to make Hyunsoo open up and tries to believe in him even when all the evidence points to her husband. Let go of Hyunsoo, who has an identity crisis, and welcome him back when he's ready. Their patience, dedication, and loyalty are amazing.

4. Park Changho and Go Miho "Big Mouth"

Even though Changho constantly fails and never wins a case, Miho still supports him. When Changho got framed and went to prison, she never once doubted him. Going all the way, even taking a job at the prison just to support and keep an eye on him. Changho seems like an idiot and a dork, but when Miho is in danger, he will switch and become a terrifying man.

4. Yang Jungkook and Kim Miyoung "my fellow citizens"

They started their relationship with a lie because of their past. A con artist and a police. They started to grow apart because Miyoung revealed to Jungkook that she was a police officer, and that terrified the shit out of him. But when Miyoung got hurt by his scam victim, Jungkook got extremely guilty and tried to do anything to protect his wife. And when the truth comes out, Miyoung, who felt betrayed, still tried to believe in him and help him. Even after putting his husband in jail, she still waited for him when he was released from prison.

ok but sun bleached flies x pachinko (the book) specifically noa's story is literally the combination of all time. "the more it hurts, the less it shows / and that's why I could never go back home" "and I spend my life / watching it go by from the sidelines / and God, I've tried" "I forgive it all as it comes back to me" "but in the end, if I bend under the weight that they gave me / then this heart would break and fall as twice as far"...and also everytime Ethel mentions that's how her daddy raised her!! which father? Noa will forever be thinking about the man he thought was his father and tried to emulate vs. his biological father who repulses him with his criminal enterprises and whom he believes he actually is like.

also Sunja about Noa: "Noa had been a sensitive child who had believed that if he followed all the rules and was the best, then somehow, the hostile world would change its mind. His death may have been her fault for having allowed him to believe such cruel ideals.” and "Sometimes, she could be in front of a train kiosk or the window of a bookstore, and she could feel Noa's small hand when he was a boy, and she would close her eyes and think of his sweet, grassy smell and remember that he had always tried his best. At those moments, it was good to be alone to hold on to him."

If this show gets cancelled because it didn't get enough views I would be very disheartened. PLEASEE, GO WATCH PACHINKO! It's definitely worth the watch I can promise that!

[de-la-bibliotheque]

All her life, Sunja had heard this sentiment from other women, that they must suffer—suffer as a girl, suffer as a wife, suffer as a mother—die suffering. Go-saeng—the word made her sick. What else was there besides this?

Min Jin Lee, Pachinko
