11"Chapter One"KogonadaSoo HughMarch 25, 2022 (2022-03-25)
The narrative begins in 1915 Yeongdo, a small island of the second largest city Busan, in Japanese-occupied Korea with Yangjin, evidently in some anguish, visiting a female shaman's house, where Yangjin recounts that she is married to a kind man with a cleft-lip with whom she has born three sons, none of whom have lived beyond one year, and asks the shaman to "lift the curse" of her childbearing. The narrative jumps to 1989 in New York City, where it follows a young, sharply-dressed Korean-American business man, who we later learn is originally from Japan and is named Solomon, as he attends a performance-review meeting with two of his managers, who inform him that, despite his stellar performance, he has not been selected by executives for a promotion to Vice President, news that prompts Solomon to boldly propose in the meeting that he be sent to Japan in order to close a stalled business deal worth millions of dollars, since he is confident he can cajole a Korean woman who is holding up the deal, in order to secure for himself the promotion and pay raise he covets. Back in 1920s Korea, Yangjin and her husband give birth to Sunja, a daughter, who as a young girl is popular, bright and capable. Sunja's parents—unnamed in the first episode—house male lodgers, at least one of which is a drunken fisherman who, because of anti-Japanese sentiments, is a controversial figure. In 1989, Solomon travels to Japan, where, prior to his business projects, he visits his father's home, where he catches up, seemingly after a long time away, with his grandmother—the elderly Sunja—his father, and a woman who we are meant to infer is his stepmother. In the 1920s, Sunja's father falls ill and dies. Nine years after his death, she is depicted as a regular merchant in a more developed fish market, still popular, bright, and capable, where she locks impassioned eyes with Hansu, a young impeccably-dressed businessman, who evidently has only then become the market's broker.
22"Chapter Two"KogonadaSoo Hugh & Matthew J. McCueMarch 25, 2022 (2022-03-25)
In Yeongdo 1930, tensions between Japanese emigrants and Korean natives evidently remain intense, as Sunja's mother, Yangjin, exhorts the teenage girl not to walk unaccompanied, fearing rumors spread among Korean women about targeted assaults upon them by Japanese men. Sunja, bright and capable, dismisses the exhortation, though is accosted shortly afterward on a solitary walk near the market by a group of young Japanese men, who are within moments of raping her before the dapper and commanding market broker apprehends the men and compels their apology to Sunja. In 1989 Tokyo, Solomon attends a wedding reception of the daughter of a prominent Japanese financier with two colleagues from his multinational corporation based in New York City, Shiffley. Solomon begins to immerse himself in the business culture of the Tokyo offices beneath and beside Tom Andrews and Naomi. Contemporaneously, the elderly Sunja nurses her sister-in-law, Kyunghee, as she reminisces about her past. In the 1930s, Sunja and Hansu become closer, as they share details about their dreams, history, and opinions about the world. Eventually, they make love in the woods at the peak of their romance. In 1989 Japan, Solomon's father, Baek Mozasu, the owner of a pachinko arcade, secures a massive loan to expand his operations, while he and his partner take steps to discover the whereabouts of Hana. Solomon's bid to the Korean woman in pursuit of his business deal is refused, and Hana, who we infer is his childhood friend and/or stepsister, erstwhile missing inexplicably, calls him at work and evidently knows more than is imaginable about his personal and professional life.
33"Chapter Three"KogonadaHansol Jung and Soo HughMarch 25, 2022 (2022-03-25)
In Yeongdo 1930, Sunja and Hansu continue their love affair and Sunja becomes pregnant after missing her period. A short period after this time, Hansu, who was supposed to be gone a week from his job as a fish broker, disappears. He returns, however, with a pocket watch as a gift for Sunja. Sunja announces her pregnancy to Hansu and talks about marriage but Hansu informs her that he's married and that he has three daughters but intends to keep her as his mistress. Ashamed, Sunja refuses to be his mistress and ends their relationship. Later, Baek Isak, a Protestant minister stricken with tuberculosis, arrives to the boarding house and collapses in front of it. Sunja later confesses her pregnancy to Yangjin, Isak overhears this and the next day accompanies Sunja to lunch, Sunja sees Hansu on the way to lunch and immediately walks away. Isak and Sunja have a conversation at lunch and Isak proposes that Sunja being pregnant and being unmarried could potentially marry him. In 1989, Kyunghee dies and is cremated. Solomon gets an idea to have Sunja come talk to the Korean woman who refuses to sell her land to him, they get along very well, being that they are of the same generation and relate to each other. They eat rice and Sunja recognizes the taste of the rice as from her homeland. The woman sees right through Solomon and he confesses his plan to use Sunja to get her to sell. It looks as if the plan backfired, but back at the office Tom informs Solomon the woman indeed called him to sell. Hana calls Solomon at work, revealing she's very sick. Sunja visits Mozasu and tells him that she wants to bury Kyunghee back in Korea.
44"Chapter Four"Justin ChonE. J. Koh and Soo HughApril 1, 2022 (2022-04-01)
In Busan 1931, Sunja and Isak are married. Yangjin asks for Korean rice as dowry from a local merchant as Sunja is about to leave for Osaka and wants her to remember her homeland. Hansu meets Sunja in the market and berates her for marrying Isak. Sunja tells Hansu that the child is hers, not his. Yangjin offers her jewelry to sell in case of a rainy day, but Sunja shows her the pocket watch given to her by Hansu and lies saying that it was a gift from her late father. A singer on her way to the boat as the evening's entertainment drops her scarf and Sunja gives it back to her. Isak and Sunja leave for Osaka on the boat on the lower decks. The singer in the middle of her performance shifts from an Italian aria to a traditional Korean song and as the guards close in on her she produces a knife and commits suicide. In 1989, Sunja packs for a return to Korea and Mozasu accompanies her. Back in Korea, Sunja orders the car to stop. She goes out to the ocean and breaks down in tears of joy. At the meeting to close the deal, the Korean Grandmother has second thoughts about signing the deal, mostly due to anti-Japanese sentiment and in a moment of empathy Solomon tells her in Korean not to do the deal. The Korean Grandmother gets up and leaves, Tom erupts at Solomon and one of the other Japanese executives tells Tom that he warned him that bringing Solomon into the deal was dangerous and that he made fools out of them. Solomon runs out of the meeting, throws off his tie and dances in the rain to the sound of a street band. Naomi sees this and smiles.

In 1945, Sunja is living in Osaka with her two sons, a teenaged Noa and a much younger Mose. Noa is shy and Mose is outgoing, but they both struggle to find harmony at school while their mother works to financially provide. American planes drop leaflets on their town urging the citizens to petition the Japanese government to end the war, threatening that things will worsen if they do not. The town takes part in training exercises meant to teach them how to use sharpened bamboo as a lethal weapon. Sunja's efforts to provide for her family lead her to selling on a black market and getting arrested, although she is released the next morning right before Kim Chang-ho picks her up to take her to see Koh Hansu where it is implied that he is the reason for Sunju's release. Hansu warns her that atomic bombs are imminent and insists that she and her family shelter in the country where he has made provisions. She refuses to leave Isak (as he is imprisoned). In 1989, Solomon is looking for work in Tokyo as the fallout from his handling of the land deal with Shiffley's becomes an obstacle for him. His pride makes it difficult to accept money from the family's pachinko parlor to tide him over and his stress leads him to blowing up at a baker for insulting Sunja's Japanese language skills.

Production

[edit]
Promotional poster incorporating several notable characters from the series.

In August 2018, Apple Inc. obtained the rights to the series, which was given a series order in April 2019.[13] The reports also included that Soo Hugh would act as showrunner, writer, and executive producer for the series. The production company, Media Res, would also produce alongside Hugh. In October 2020, Lee Min-ho, Jin Ha, Anna Sawai, Minha Kim, Soji Arai, and Kaho Minami were announced to star, with South Korean filmmaker Kogonada and Justin Chon set to executive-produce and direct four episodes each.[14] Soo Hugh said it took six to seven months of worldwide search to cast the main actors and that she had asked all her actors to audition for their roles.[15] Filming was set to commence on October 26, 2020, in South Korea, Japan, and North America.[16] Lee Min-ho said he had finished filming in Busan, South Korea, in December 2020 and that he was preparing to film in Canada.[17] Filming in Vancouver was scheduled to take place between February 6 and April 9, 2021.[18]

The show's opening theme song is "Let's Live for Today" by The Grass Roots. Hugh said she originally thought about selecting "Out of Time" by The Rolling Stones but they were unable to secure the rights to that song. The title sequence was shot several times with different songs until "Let's Live for Today" was added during post-production.[19]

On February 17, 2022, The New Yorker revealed that Min Jin Lee had been, but was no longer, involved in the production of the show based on her novel. The reason for her lack of involvement moving forward was not given.[20]

On April 29, 2022, Apple renewed the series for a second season.[21] Filming was scheduled to take place in Toronto from January 9 to March 27, 2023, and in Japan from March 27 to June 16, 2023.[22] Leanne Welham was to direct four episodes of the second season.[23]
