It premiered on Apple TV+ on March 25, 2022. It received critical acclaim. In April 2022, the series was renewed for a second season.

So, when is the second season releasing? What is the plot? Who would come back to reprise their roles? Continue reading to know further details.

Pachinko Plot and Cast

Fans of the book will likely know what’s coming next, because, for the most part, this adaptation has been a faithful, yet remixed version of the source material. However, the introduction of new characters like Naomi suggests that unexpected elements will continue to take even longtime readers by surprise in season two.

One thing we are sure of though is that little Noa will play a much bigger role moving forward. If season one was anything to go by, future episodes will be just as euphoric and yet devastating in equal measure.

The main cast members such as Youn Yuh-Jung, Kim Min-ha, and Lee Min-ho are all but guaranteed to return and they’ll likely be joined by the following cast Soji Arai, Jin Ha, Han Jun-woo, Jung Eun-Chae, Felice Choi, Steve Sanghyun Noh, Anna Sawai. Also, new faces could show up too.

Pachinko Season 2 Release Date

Pachinko has now been officially renewed, but given the international scale of this project, season two could still take some time to reach us regardless.

We wouldn’t be surprised if Pachinko season two doesn’t arrive until 2024, although this early renewal makes us hope that it might arrive sooner. Further details are expected to be revealed soon.
