Korean Immigration in 'Pachinko' - Book Review
Tumblr media
The cast of Apple TV Original Adaptation directed by Kogonada
'Pachinko' was without a doubt written so gracefully and seamlessly. Although there were times when I put the book down and didn’t feel so much urge to pick it up again, I still can’t deny the fact that this was one of the most well-written pieces I’ve ever read, tackling several relevant and worldly issues. Written so precisely as if these characters and the lives they’ve lived were real at some point in time, Min Jin Lee succeeds in making her readers stop and think about the world.

CHANGE
Throughout the book, we find ourselves hoping for change just as much as the characters do. It seems to be that negative change that wipes the life out of your body appears faster than lighting, and the change that everyone hopes for comes unnoticeable through time. The book proves what we should all know, which is that racism and injustices do not only occur among different races, but sometimes and for decades now, through different nationalities, gender, and social and economic status and beliefs.
That evening, when Noa did not call her, she realized that she had not given him her phone number in Yokohama. In the morning, Hansu phoned her. Noa had...

Book lll: Chapter 8 and the words that followed that line crushed my heart.
"I am carrying your child."
Page 47 of 'Pachinko'
This book made me think a lot what ifs. What if Sunja had not met Hansu? What if Isak had went to Osaka on his own? What if Noa's mother did not visit him in Nagano? Through the course of a few months, Sunja's life had took a major turn and changed everything around her, and it felt real.

PRIVILEGE
One recurring topic that keeps coming to me the more I read this book is privilege. Koh Hansu was not born in privilege, being a Korean and a poor one at that. But it does not excuse the amount of damage his gained privilege later in his life has caused others whom he once stood in the same economic status with.
Hansu hit the girl's face so hard that blood gushed from her pink mouth. - Noriko was ruined.
Page 344 & 345 of 'Pachinko'
Noriko was such a small character in the book (mentioned in only three pages), but it felt necessary that she was added because it made me think of the that one second you could be smiling, and the next you realize that the thing you were smiling at brought you to the hells of earth. It made me think of how much change could happen in a second while the cause of it or beholder of privilege remains unharmed.
I’d say that Pachinko isn’t much for enjoyment and excitement, but a lesson. You read it to learn in an entertaining and beautiful way about the history of Korea and Japan starting with the life of a young woman named Sunja, whose life changes drastically because of man of privilege and her decision to not fall under his power. The book covered topics I haven’t been able to encounter much yet or at all in other books, and maybe so because I need to expand my palate more, but nonetheless, this three-generational story will have you thinking and sympathizing not only for the characters but the lives and years they were inspired by in history.

Author of 'Pachinko', Min JIn Lee, at a DeMott lecture in 2019 Ahmerst College
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Min Jin Lee is no stranger to spreading political and social awareness to topics that need to be raised, whether its through her books, social media outlets, or press conferences and lectures. With her books ‘Free Food for Millionaires’ and ‘Pachinko’ both about Korean immigrants, Min Jin Lee has made her name known for giving a voice to the struggles of Asian immigration, which is scarcely tackled in the media.
"Above all, I wanted the narrator to be sympathetic of every character's plight. I will be forty-eight in November 2016, and as I get older, it is easier for me to imagine and appreciate many more perspectives--perspectives I may have disliked when I was much younger."
A Conversation with Min Jin Lee, page 494 of Grand Central Publishing's 'Pachinko'
Min Jin Lee is found admirable for all the perspectives and timelines she had to put herself through to write these sensitive topics in a historically accurate way, by interview Korean-Japanese men and women of their experiences, and taking her time to understand the weight of these stories, among others.
There is no denying that the preciseness of this book and its every line made it so beautiful and stand out from other books.

There is nothing that fills me with more visceral disgust than obvious romanticization of america in non-american stories that are adapted by american studios
