While Season 2 of 'Pachinko', which captivates the world with its thorough completeness and deep resonance, has released episode 1, the reunion scene of 'Seonja' and 'Han Su' is drawing enthusiastic responses from viewers.

In this episode 1, seven years after season 1, the story of 'Seonja' (Kim Min-ha), who is responsible for the family alone in Osaka, Japan, was unfolded in 1945. In particular, viewers are enthusiastically reacting to the scene of 'Han-su' meeting again with 'Han-su' after struggling to make a living in a difficult situation.
