What do you guys think of this? I wonder why they refer to it as season 1. Do you guys think there’s a possibility there’s more than 1 season?

Perhaps they are now filming the first part of the book in 8 episodes, and then they are planning the sequel to 2 and 3 parts?

That would be cool if they did that.

So Youn Yoh Jung is the presumptive favorite to take Best Supporting Actress at the Academy Awards two weeks from now.  Her winning would bring a lot of hype around Pachinko.

I was also thinking the same from the get go. covering 4 generations in one season is alot unless you jump from one arc to antoher which also can work if excuted well. Maybe they will chose to focus on one generation and give the rest small screen time could also work in that way

I noticed that too!  Do you think it's like Netflix where every show is a "season 1?"  Anyone familiar with Apple TV+ know the answer?

CROSS GENE's Shin talks about his first impression of Lee Min Ho

 

 

The drama The Legend of the Blue Sea was the last drama in which Lee Min Ho took part, because after that he went to do his military service as a Korean man who and who should fulfill his duty to the people.

 

We now offer you a quick overview of this drama so you can get into context about the following:

 

In August 1598, a typhoon struck Joseon, which left the mermaid (Jung Ji Hyun), was taken prisoner and placed in the house of a swindler who wants to sell her to make money. Kim Dam Rim (Lee Min Ho), the son of a nobleman and head of the village, decides to release her into the sea. To stay connected. The fraudster decides to spread rumors that the siren is a curse and that she has bewitched the village headman. The townspeople want to be killed, so Kim Dam Rim has no choice but to return her to the sea.

 

Kim Dam Rim gives her a jade bracelet. When they find out that the mermaid has returned to the sea, the crook decides to find her and capture her, but instead Kim Dam Rim finds out about it and goes in search of the mermaid, but they kill both of them. She is reborn as a mermaid and thus maintains crossings through different parts of the world, in 2016 she unexpectedly arrives on the coast of Catalonia, Spain, where she discovers that when her body dries up, her tail transforms into human-like legs. ...

 

Now, if you've already seen this drama, you remember the character who also stole our hearts, and it was about the hacker, the character of Tae Oh. played by idol Shin Won Ho. During this time, he was interviewed about his first impression of King Hailu Lee Min Ho.

 

Interviewer:

What are your impressions of Lee Min Ho before and after the drama?

 

Lee Minho was a "superstar" before we met, and now he is not only a "superstar" but also an older brother, handsome inside and out, which makes you look at him. We are still in touch and have recently gathered. We had fun chatting about mobile phone games.

What do you think of the first impression he made on Lee Min Ho?

An article from Apple itself said that Dr Brain is already in production.

Hopefully, it's just a technicality in the usage of words, that Dr Brain is to be produced in the Korean language, while Pachinko would be produced in 3 languages (Korean, Eng, Japanese). I've also seen such articles last month in Korean and didn't mind them much, due to risk of mistranslation. This is the first article I've seen in English which explicitly says Pachinko follows Dr. Brain.

Earlier this year, Lee Min Ho made a collaboration with his fellow actor and showbiz friend Lee Seung Gi to thank all their fans who support them every step of the way.

 

Apple TV+ secured the rights of the project and they will be the one to produce it in various countries.

Louis Vuitton Welcomed Lee Min Ho to Their Family

Meanwhile, aside from his drama comeback, Lee Min Ho also became the new brand ambassador for the famous French brand Louis Vuitton. The "City Hunter" star has been dominating not just the drama industry but also the fashion world.

 

His influence is being recognized from different countries, captivating the viewers with his natural charisma. After "The King:Eternal Monarch," his fans Minoz can't wait for the return of their favorite actor. Lee Min Ho is expected to make waves again with his upcoming projects.

Look at same news again but they don't say first air date for Dr. Brain, if they even started to shooting dr. brain , Pachinko already completed. They are just technicality words, if they know date they already said.

One of the first Korean shows that subscribers can watch on Apple TV+ is a Lee Min Ho-starrer drama series called “Pachinko” which will also star Youn Yuh Jung who recently won the Best Supporting Actress at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards and the Screen Actors Guild Awards for her role in “Minari.”

Another original Korean content is the sci-fi thriller titled “Dr. Brain.” This was created based on the popular webtoon and will star another SAG Award winner Lee Sun Kyun for “Parasite.” These titles are the first Korean-language shows on Apple TV+.

Apple+ is award motivated mostly and both titles seems to be intended for targetting awards. Min Je Lee's Pachinko is highly acclaimed book and then you bring in Parasite director to also throw in his hat into another series which indicts both are geared towards awards. Apple+ has also been winning most awards with their originals. I hope LMH gets a golden Globe award for Hansu
