Crash Landing On You has given new wings to the Korean wave. The popularity of Korean dramas started increasing internationally during the early 2000s but it was still a niche fan following. Since its premiere in December 2019, Crash Landing On You has taken the world by storm. So many people across the globe who were unaware of the wonderful world of Kdramas, have become new fans.
