Meanwhile, Min Ho is garnering praises for his latest series Pachinko. Pachinko narrates the tale of Korean immigrants through four generations. The episodes open with the impact of a tense political climate on a family of three that runs a boarding house. News18.com reviewed it, “The lead cast-Minha Kim, Lee Min-ho, and Youn Yuh-jung- carry their respective roles effortlessly. Lee Min-ho is already known to sweep people off their feet but with Pachinko, he not only leaves you smitten by his good looks but shows that he has matured as an actor. In the scenes by the stream, where Hansu and Sunja are growing closer, Lee Min-ho has a lot of ease and comfort. While he holds your attention in the scenes, he doesn’t overshadow Minha Kim with his persona.”
Gong Hyo Jin, on the other hand, was last seen in the drama When the Camellia Blooms.
