The second highest-rated cable drama, Crash landing on you, drew inspiration from a real-life event involving South Korean actor Jung Yang. The Korean drama series unfolds in an unrealistic set up comprising the neighbouring countries – South Korea and North Korea.
In a recent interview with the Korean TVN channel, the show writer Park Ji Eun revealed the incident that inspired her to pen the unconventional love story. According to Ji Eun, in 2008 actor Jung Yang and her friends were sailing on the shores of Incheon to test run a boat. Eventually, her boat was swept away due to bad weather and was close to crossing the Northern Limit Line separating the two Koreas.
