SEOUL, Feb 14 — South Korea’s biggest current television hit is a surreally unlikely tale of a billionaire heiress who accidentally paraglides into the North and falls in love with a chivalrous army officer serving Kim Jong-un. Crash Landing on You is unashamedly fantastical in its plotlines,...

Portraits of North Korean founder Kim Il Sung and his son and successor Kim Jong Il — father of the current leader — appear on the walls of every home, with propaganda slogans in the streets of the set. “The series wouldn’t even have been planned and produced under heightened tensions,” Yun added. “Even if it was, it would not have been well received.”The story opens with the beautiful heiress to a South Korean business empire being swept up by a tornado while paragliding, and crashing on the wrong side of the heavily fortified Demilitarized Zone.

Even more surreally, after she returns South the hero and several comrades slip across the DMZ and into Seoul undetected to save her from a villain. South Korean fans found it humorous, but defector Han Song-ee was reminded of frequent power cuts in her homeland.
