[syntyche]

Korean series to check out

 

South Korea, a consolidated entertainment market, has been conquering the world with its productions, directors and artists.

 

The worldwide success of the series “Round 6” confirmed what had already been outlined in the entertainment sector for years: the public dived into the Korean Wave, also called Hallyu. For 2022, new South Korean series should arrive on streaming platforms. The attractions cover different genres, such as drama, comedy and fantasy, as well as adaptations.

The production of series, called k-dramas or dramas, is one of the most profitable markets within South Korea. The government gives incentives to the creation of local cultural content in favor of the growth of the country's pop culture around the world. Many of the attractions available in streaming, such as on Netflix, are the result of purchase or licensing. But there is also the content, the result of collaboration and partnership.

 

Apple TV + also decided to invest in Korean series, with the adaptation of “Pachinko”, a bestseller by Min Jin Lee. The cast brings together two actors from different generations, but both acclaimed by South Koreans: Lee Min Ho, from “ The King: Eternal Monarch”, and Jung-Youn, Oscar winner for “Minari”. The narrative brings the saga of three generations of Korean immigrants in 20th century Japan. The book, a tribute to the sacrifices of thousands of exiled foreigners, deals with identity, homeland and belonging.

JANUARY 27, 2022

Based on the historical fiction novel by Min Jin Lee, Pachinko tells the generational story of a Korean family in Japan. It details their struggles of identity, belonging, prejudice, and heartbreak.

Written and executive produced by Soo Hugh (The Terror and The Killing), who created the series and serves as showrunner. Kogonada and Justin Chon are executive producers and directed four episodes each, with Kogonada directing the pilot. Michael Ellenberg and Lindsey Springer executive produce for Media Res; Theresa Kang-Lowe executive produces for Blue Marble Pictures; and Media Res’ Dani Gorin co-executive produces, along with Richard Middleton, David Kim and Sebastian Lee.

What will it be about?

 

This eight-episode limited series on Apple TV will stay true to its inspiration. Epic in scope and intimate in tone, the story begins with forbidden love and crescendos into a sweeping saga that journeys between Korea, Japan and America to tell an unforgettable story of war and peace, love and loss, triumph and reckoning. Beginning in 1910, during the time of the Japanese colonisation, the epic story will unfold over four generations. Though the series looks to the novel for its inspiration, we can assume that there will be plenty of room for adaptations.

 

Which roles have been confirmed?

Good news for those who missed seeing The King: Eternal Monarch‘s Lee Min Ho and Jung Eun Chae together on the screen. You can expect to see them reunited again in Pachinko.

 

 

Lee Min Ho as Hansu in Pachinko

 

Lee Min Ho will be playing Hansu, a rich and powerful merchant with ties to organised crimes. For those of you who have read the book, you might also recall that Hansu plays an important role in the story. No spoilers here, but there’s no denying that Lee Min Ho is the perfect choice for Hansu’s charismatic and stoic charm. Insert clip of his character from The King: Eternal Monarch, Lee Gon, barreling through the crowd of baddies to get to Kim Go Eun’s character Jeong Tae Eul. After all, if there was a clip that shouts ‘Hansu’, this one definitely speaks volumes.

Jung Eun Chae will be playing Kyung Hee, a doting and gentle

woman who, as described in the book, is “tenderhearted to a fault”. While Jung Eun Chae’s role as the Prime Minister in The King: Eternal Monarch was resolute, this new role will be a refreshing showcase of her more vulnerable side. It’s been reported that Jung Eun Chae has already begun preparing for her role.

Husband to Kyung Hee, Yoseb has been living in Osaka with his wife for ten years. While he is talented with languages and a gifted mechanic, he’s been relegated to work as a biscuit factory foreman. Despite feeling the weight of responsibility to support his family, he refuses to accept help from anyone. South Korean actor Han Jun Woo will be taking on the role.

You might recognise Anna Sawai for her roles in Fast and Furious 9 and Ninja Assassin. This time around she will play Naomi, a career woman in the male-dominated field of finance. Fans of the book might recognise that this character doesn’t exist in the novel. But whatever the speculation is, we’ll only know for sure how she plays into the story when the series airs.

Jin Ha as Solomon in Pachinko

 

Solomon, an ambitious young man who will be forced to reckon with his family’s past will be played by Jin Ha – a Korean born American actor known for his roles in Dev and Love Life.

Kim Min Ha will be playing the role of Sunja as a teenager. Though there isn’t a main character in Pachinko, the first half of the book does seem to revolve mostly around her life and the decisions she makes. Of course, the TV adaptation might differ. Sunja is a heroic young woman who forges her own path in a country foreign to her. Though Kim Min Ha is new to the entertainment industry, she’s made her appearances in the TV series School 2017 (2017) and Partners for Justice (2018). And more recently, in Killerswell: Our Space (2019). Actress Jeon Yu Na will be taking on the role of young Sunja, and Academy Award-winning actress Youn Yuh Jung will be playing older Sunja.

Finally, Kaho Minami, a Japanese actress, will be playing the role of Etsuko, a woman with ties to Mozasu who longs to be reunited with her estranged daughter.

 

When will it be released?

 

Pachinko is set to premiere globally on Apple TV+ on March 25th. The series will be told in three languages – Korean, Japanese, and English — and debut with the first three episodes followed by new weekly installments each Friday during its eight-episode season through April 29th.

Lee Min Ho, fed up with being the son of a wealthy family, returns as a villain.

 

January 28, 2022

 

Lee Min Ho is familiar to fans of Korean cinema. He is known for his beautiful, rich portrayal in Meteor Garden, Heir or King: Eternal Monarch. It's been 2 years since the actor last appeared on the small screen. This comeback he reincarnated into a different role compared to the previous image, making the audience look forward to it.

Recently, the image of the actor in the film was revealed on his personal page. In the photo, the actor is in an elegant white outfit. However, the usual wealth is no longer there, but instead the face is naked, experienced.

Before that, a series of photos with actress Kim Min Ha also caused a stir on social media. The plot of the film is unknown, but viewers can vaguely imagine the film's sad ending thanks to the photograph. In particular, Lee Min Ho is also shocking with a long scar on his forehead, which has never been seen in his 15 years of career.

It is known that this is an exceptionally high-quality investment film from Apple TV+. The film is based on the novel of the same name by Lee Min Jin, one of the ten most read books of 2017 (according to the New York Times). Revolving around a family of 4 generations, the book is about forbidden love and voices fighting for peace and justice. Acclaimed for its thoughtful and humane story, audiences can't wait to see how the film adaptation will tell this historical story.

In this drama, Lee Min Ho's role is especially important, he plays a central role in connecting the characters. Therefore, although he is quite famous, the actor still has to go through many careful castings. Sharing his experience with Pachinko, the actor shared on NME, "I feel a lot of pressure to have to play such a difficult role. I'm both nervous and excited and very happy to be in the movie."

In addition, the film also gathers the expected cast. Yoon Yoo-chung, the "big tree" of the Korean small screen with 55 years of experience in the profession, is attending the opening. She also recently became the first Korean actress to win Best Supporting Actress at the 2021 Oscars.

Actor Kim Min Ha, Lee Min Ho's partner, also aroused the curiosity of the public. Although she is a new face to the Korean film industry with 2020's Main Street, she doesn't get lost standing in the same frame as Lee Min Ho. In particular, they say that the beauty of the actress is extremely suitable for a bright and intelligent character.

In addition, to convey the message of fighting racism, the film features many actors from Japan and Europe. In which there are 2 prominent faces: Jimmi Simpson, who stormed the Black Mirror, and Anna Sawai, an Asian who appeared from Fast and Furious 9.

It can be said that Pachinko is the most anticipated Korean film of 2022. Lee Min Ho's return as the first villain of his career has piqued the curiosity of viewers. With the release of 8 episodes in early March, we hope that Pachinko and Lee Min Ho will live up to viewers' expectations.
