We got our subscription free when we bought an apple product and it was due to run out soon but I got an email today saying they were extending it free until July - which might just cover Pachinko. I guess they want to keep the numbers up. I think this could be the role of his life (so far) and it bothers me how many people will actually see it as Apple TV is quite new. What does anyone else on here think? I haven't Apple Tv but I saw news last week it is said Apple Tv extending free, because They don't want to lose subscribers. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syntyche Posted January 29, 2021 Author Share Posted January 29, 2021 Yoon Yo Jong leaves for Canada to shoot Pachinko Actress Yoon Yeo-jung has left for Canada to shoot the global video streaming service (OTT) Apple TV+ drama "Pachinko." According to an industry source on the 29th, Yoon Yo-jung left for Canada to film Pachinko overseas. "Pachinko" is based on a best-selling novel of the same name written by Korean-American Lee Min-jin, a global project produced by world-renowned cast members from Korea, Japan, and the United States and conducted in three languages: Korean, Japanese and English. Through the epic story of four generations of Korean immigrant families, it is a work that captures the story of an individual through history in eight episodes on a vast scale. Filming began in Korea in October last year and is set to shoot in Canada. Yoon Yeo-jung, who plays the main character Seon-ja, started filming in November last year and left for Canada to continue filming. Yoon Yeo-jung's departure from Canada is drawing more attention whether Yoon Yeo-jung will join the "Minari" Oscar race in the U.S. after filming "Pachinko. Yoon Yo-jung is currently receiving enthusiastic responses in the U.S. for her role in "Minari." Yoon Yo-jung won 20 Best Supporting Actress awards in the United States, including Los Angeles, Boston, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Columbus, Greater Western New York, San Diego, Music City, San Francisco, St. Louis, North Texas, New Mexico, Kansas City, Discusing Film, New York Online, and the American Association of Filmmakers, Gold List, and Sunset Film Awards. In response, an official from Yoon Yeo-jung told Star News, "It has yet to be decided whether Yoon Yeo-jung will join the Oscar race." Attention is focusing on whether Yoon Yeo-jung will join the Oscar race and share a glorious moment with "Minari." https://entertain.naver.com/now/read?oid=108&aid=0002928592 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syntyche Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 They were born in Korean families but grew up breathing in completely different cultures. When I face the literature written by Korean writers, I feel familiar and unfamiliar. Unlike the similarities between names and appearances, the whole world is heterogeneous. Nevertheless, traces of Korean culture are revealed throughout the work. Let's take a look at the aspects of Korean writers who are proudly active in the world as immigrants. Lee Min-jin | Korean writer who completed four major Korean-Japanese epic stories for 30 years Her work, "Pachinko" (Lee Min-jin / Literary Thought / 2018), which begins with a powerful sentence, "History Ruined Us, But It Doesn't Matter," carefully recorded the history of four generations of Koreans living in Japan from the Japanese colonial period to the 1980s. She said her interest in Korean-Japanese began in 1989 while listening to a lecture by a missionary who met Korean-Japanese in Japan. After 30 years of planning and writing, she completed this work. It was selected as 'Book of the Year' by several media such as the 'New York Times' and 'BBC' and was nominated for the National Book Award in 2019. Apple TV has announced plans to produce a drama of the same name starring Yoon Yeo-jung and Lee Min-ho. http://news.bookdb.co.kr/bdb/IssueStory.do?_method=detail&sc.webzNo=41030&Nnews 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we are not allowed to re-quote, hence the copy-paste from your post above. What can I say.... that's the power of Lee Min Ho ! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an iphone only because my cell phone provider told me, when I bought my first smart phone, that Apple was easier to learn than an Android. Mine is a couple years old, so I'm not one to run out to replace my current phone every time a new one is released. Mine is the smallest size, so it fits in my hand lol. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nina_mitrokhina Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 The novel “Pachinko 1·2” (literature thought) written by Korean-Americans based on Koreans in Japan was ranked second to third in the best-selling novels, poetry, and dramas in the fourth week of Yes24 January. Ranked 12th and 14th respectively in the overall bestsellers. This novel is written by Lee Min-jin (54), a writer of the 1.5th generation immigration to the United States. At the time of publication in 2017, he was nominated for the National Book Awards. The translation was published in 2018, but the response wasn't great, but the US Apple TV started to dramatize it, and the chart “reverse running” started. Literary History Director Jinsu Kim said on the 29th, "Up to last year, 300 copies of 1 and 2 volumes were sold per month, but more than 8,000 copies were sold this month." Asш there were articles stating that actors Yoon Yeo-jung, Lee Min-ho, and Jung Woong-in were cast, sales volume increased. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
