What We Think

Crash Landing on You is refreshingly non-woke by modern standards. It relies on conventional storytelling, honors cultural foundations, and avoids the usual ideological monotony. A breath of fresh air compared to today's usual fare.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show largely sticks to classic romantic drama tropes and does not seem to force identity politics into its storyline. Characters are developed based on personal background, personality, and circumstances rather than simply as mouthpieces for ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like family, duty, and romance headline the series. The depiction of masculinity, femininity, and cultural tradition is overall respectful, and there is little evidence of deliberate subversion or rewriting of core values.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The series includes a range of viewpoints, balancing the North and South Korean perspectives with some nuance. It doesn't seem to villainize traditional ideas or force a singular ideological narrative on the viewer.
