New Delhi:  Apple TV+ has released the trailer for its drama series ”Pachinko”, a family saga of four generations told across three languages -Korean, Japanese and English.

The series, starring Oscar-winning Korean star Youn Yuh Jung and popular Korean star Lee Minho, is set to premiere on the platform on March 25 with the first three episodes followed by new weekly installments each Friday during its eight-episode season through April 29, 2022, Apple TV+ said in a release on Thursday. The series is based on the acclaimed New York Times bestselling novel by Min Jin Lee.

Filled with universal themes of family, love, triumph, fate and resilience, the series chronicles the hopes and dreams of a Korean immigrant family across four generations as they leave their homeland in an indomitable quest to survive and thrive. Starting in South Korea in the early 1900s, the story is told through the eyes of a remarkable matriarch, Sunja, who triumphs against all odds. It juxtaposes her story with that of her grandson, Solomon, in the 1980s. “Pachinko” is written and executive produced by Soo Hugh of “The Terror” and “The Killing” fame. Hugh created the series and serves as showrunner.
