Apple’s Pachinko returns for season 2 in August

One of the most popular series on Apple TV Plus is coming back very soon. The streamer has just announced that season 2 of the historical epic Pachinko will begin streaming on August 23. Weekly episodes will air every Friday until October 11.

Based on the novel of the same name by Min Jin Lee, Pachinko follows the multi-generational story of a Korean family immigrating to Japan. While the story unfolded chronologically in the book, the series took a different approach, with a non-linear narrative that jumped between eras. The series premiered in 2022 and the series was renewed before the end of the first season.

It’s unclear exactly what parts of the story season 2 will cover, but Apple has provided a handful of first look images:
