Lmao-I'm loving this thead!!! i'm going through all the previous posts, and everyone has come up with something different. Every minute detail/habbit has been spotted, lol but without these repetative trademarks-Korean dramas just wouldn't be the same!!! hehe soo cliche. But guys (dunno if it's already been mentioned) but you missed out the PORRIDGE-the ultimate remedy, it is the cure for every single nasty bug/flu/cold that the male or female protagonist is guaranteed to get!!!

PeAce out <keep>

How many kdramas has 'Fly me to the moon' been used in... not the official ost.

don't know if someone has already said it:
in every korean drama there is always a scene of an actor puts his jacket on his girl although sometimes he only wears a plain short-sleeve t-shirt.

I haven't watched kdramas much like everyone does, but one thing I noticed is:

professing your love in the rain and kissing in the rain scenes

LOL I feel like this is probably the only thing that makes us go Suprise

The director should come up with more hot kissing scenes that aren't in the rain but somewhere else. Whistling

Hm I haven't read every page but i want to shout out my opinion Big Smile

Doesn't ever kdrama have some kind of belief around destiny or fate? I just finished watching soulmate and they always seem to end some eps with OMG if we r meant to be together. WE will meet again!

6. Small or medium-sized cars are rarely used. Rich people drive big and expensive cars, while everybody else takes the bus or the subway, or gets rides in the rich people's costly autos.

10. Rich people live in mansions surrounded by brick walls, while everybody else lives in shacks atop high buildings in downtown Seoul, or in hillside slums on the outskirts of the city.

18, or, The Oppa Fallacy. There is this cool guy and a girl, Girl #1, who keeps calling him "Oppa". Because he is her boyfriend, right? Wrong, Girl #1; it's not you who gets the cool guy. Instead, he will fall for Girl #2 who never calls him anything but "Director", "Manager", "Doctor", "Mister", or "Sir".

27. Somebody kicks somebody else in the leg. (Ouch!)

29. Characters swill soju (comes in small green bottles) under an awning on a downtown sidewalk.

30. Arranged-marriage meetings never work out. That is, there is always something seriously wrong about the guys/girls your mother digs up somewhere.

31, or, Curse of the Unattended Cellphone. If you leave your cellphone unattended, it will ring, and somebody else will answer. This will be the one person who should not answer the call.

40, or, Just Say No to Cellphones. The richer the people, the more old-fashioned the (corded) telephone they have on the living-room table.

41. A character reading at a table will, inevitably, fall asleep at said table.

42. If there is a knock at the door or the doorbell rings, the character inside will ask, "Who is it?", but will open the door without waiting for an answer.

43. Any fake/contract marriage/engagement/relationship shall turn into a true one.

dunno some1 add or not...
d background always english song when at restaurant.. Whistling

something i noticed

the female lead is usually portrayed as someone who eats 5X her body weight she is usually out eating the male character by a large margin

ha ha. love this thread! the english lang. music in the background is fine ... but why do they have to be from the 50s-70s? are the music directors of these shows all in their 60s?

re. the previous comment: ... and yet they all faint at some critical moment, somehow.
in real life, actually, some k girls tend to faint quite often b/c they don't eat. so maybe this fainting thing, combined with overeating is some kind of wish fulfillment (wish i could eat like a pig and not gain weight)?

Don't know if this has been mentioned but in pretty much every kdrama i've seen the main guy or second lead guy MUST have a mourning shower scene. If not that they will take off their clothes sometime in the story.
