<Pachinko>, which became a hot topic in 2022 when a drama of the same name produced by Apple TV was released, returned to Korean readers with new translation and cover. The new translator tried to convey the meaning of the original text more faithfully from the first sentence, "History has betrayed us, but it doesn't matter," and tried to revive the work's unique speedy style. In addition, to take advantage of the structure and flow of the story that the author originally intended, the original composition of the three parts (Part 1 "Hometown," Part 2 "Motherland," and Part 3 "Pachinko") was followed. In commemoration of the publication of the revised edition, the article "to Korean readers" revealed why the author continues to write Korean stories. The author says, "Because we are attractive," and "Koreans are intellectually and emotionally worthy of being the protagonists of an in-depth story." She expressed her special affection to Korean readers, saying, "I want to tell Korean stories to the younger generation in the future."
