1. [+77, -2] 'Pachinko' is a work of art. Just ignore anyone who tries to bring politics into it.

2. [+34, -1] Wow, congratulations. The drama left a deep impression on me, and I can't wait for season two!

3. [+30, -1] Congratulations. It's great to see it being acknowledged.

4. [+23, -1] 'Pachinko' itself is beautiful in cinematography and plot.. but you'll feel even more impressed if you watch accompanying YouTube channels that interpret the scenes. The meaning of hands, rice, religion... I like that nowadays, there's so much content available that it doesn't have to end with simply consuming a piece of media.

5. [+11, -0] Wow, 'Minari' in 2021, 'Squid Game' in 2022, 'Pachinko' in 2023.. so proud of our Hallyu. Thank you and congratulations to everyone.

6. [+10, -0] Instead of straight up anti-Japanese campaigns, it's content like this that will play a bigger role in bringing awareness around the world the horrors that Japan committed during the water. 

7. [+9, -1] I read the novel and I personally enjoyed the drama more. The drama depicted a lot more of the sorrow and resistance of the grass roots movements during the colonial period.

8. [+8, -0] Congratulations to 'Pachinko'!!! Although 'Woo Young Woo' and 'Decision to Leave' didn't win, they're both amazing works in their own right. It's amazing to see Korean works being recognized worldwide more and more like this. I support them all!

9. [+7, -0] It's an amazing drama. I personally liked the book more. It's truly a masterpiece.

10. [+6, -0] I recommend reading the book as well! The drama was amazing but there's so much more to reading about it that the drama can't live up to. 

11. [+2, -0] I'm just sad that the drama isn't more well known because it's exclusive to Apple TV. It needs to be brought to the public broadcast channels so that more grandmothers are able to watch it.
