China. Young people are going crazy about Korean TV plays, Korean pop songs, taekwondo (跆拳道)
and the Korean language.
The Korean Wave started a few years ago with the TV series 'Winter Sonata'. This love story is
still popular. People, especially girls, like the beautiful story and handsome actors like Bae Yong Jun
