Apple's adaptation of Min Jin Lee's 2017 novel Pachinko remains one of the most masterful shows the streamer has ever released.

It's been a little more than two years now since Apple TV+ released Pachinko, a multi-generational family drama adapted from Min Jin Lee's bestselling 2017 novel of the same name. A slew of top-tier Apple shows have subsequently come and gone -- but, at least for a viewer like me, almost none of them have reached the same highs as Pachinko, from showrunner Soo Hugh.

Pachinko immerses you in a story about Kim Sunja, a Korean woman portrayed at different ages and different stages of the narrative by actresses Minha Kim and Yuh-Jung Youn. We follow her and her family through several decades as a way of personalizing the long-ago tension between Korean and Japanese societies.
