List me every drama trope/cliché


Recommended Posts

It's been a while since I've watched a drama, & I'm currently only watching 1 RN as I'm getting back into it. I'm thinking about writing a short story that parodies dramas & their tropes/clichés. Is there any that I missed that needs to be on this list. Are some of these heavily outdated; are there dramas available that already conflict certain tropes/clichés? Do these apply to dramas from other countries in Asia like Japan, Taiwan, China, etc.? Are there tropes/clichés that apply only to South Korea or only to Japan, Taiwan, China, etc.? Are there tropes/clichés from other genres outside of romance that needs to be added? Please let me know b/c again it's been a while.

lets not forget the typical "one of them falls in some stupid way and manages to land exactly on top of the other" which leads to awkward sexual tension and sometimes even a kiss

Went through a trauma together as children, become separated, forget each others names and faces but reunite as lovers by chance

What about the triple replay of every hug/kiss/accidentally-intimate moment?

I’ve only seen that in variety shows; they do that in dramas too?
