Kdrama Rides the Waves to Japan

With the k-pop scene dominating overseas music charts,
even K-dramas have made it to the scene.
This is not the first time that Korea has gotten the recognition in regards to their dramas.
Heck, their dramas was the start of the hallyu wave.

Many Korean Dramas had already landed and became quite popular in Japan such as Jewel in the Palace, Winter Sonata and now just finished airing My Lovely Kim Sam Soon.
Fuji TV will feature more Korean Dramas on a special time slot, which will be referred to as "Hallyu Alpha". They have also claimed that they will strive to keep bringing popular Korean Dramas in Japan to be able to get more new fans.

In regards to this, we already know how recent K-dramas have been piling up with idol groups.
Will this also be a start for K-pop to wave over Japan's music charts too?
That's a bit ambitious since breaking out in Japan is difficult, but why not right?
