Pachinko by Min Jin Lee
4.0
challenging dark emotional tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I like it just that I think it can do without the written out sex scenes.
like at one point, I thought Kim was gonna rape Kyung Hee and i thought that would ruin Kim's character arc completely
I wanted more of the historical drama and the philosophical question and answer bits.
I somehow hated Hana's character alot, like I felt like it showed but didn't justify why she was acting the way she was. I also didn't understand why Noa killed himself and why Hana refused help.
