Pachinko: Episode 5 (Drama Hangout)

I feel like I’m watching the Korean version of Roots. Yes, I’m dating myself.

Since the “modern” bits are from 1989 and real-estate is such a central part, I wonder if we may see some of the early 90s real estate bubble collapse. If we don’t, we could maybe persuade ourselves that the modern lead did the bank a favor by blowing the purchase, and the old Korean landowner missed her chance at revenge by not selling near the top. (No, I haven’t read the book or looked up spoilers, I’m just applying some history and a kdrama-tuned spider sense).
