Welcome to the K-drama treasure hunt, where we all go looking for K-drama treasure in the form of tiny drama details that we know and love. Sometimes these details take the shape of well-worn tropes (oppa Band-Aiding) or storytelling devices (Top Secret Deadly Allergy), but other times it’s just details we know we’ve seen in other dramas, but need help putting all the clues together.
Each week we’ll put you on the hunt for a piece of K-drama treasure, and you can report your findings in the comments.
There’s no umpire in this game, so if you find the detail we’re looking for, drop the drama title (or even better, drama title + episode number) in the comments, and we’ll all take your word for it. Or, we’ll go binge watch just to see it play out.
And remember, we’re here to map our way to the treasures not to the plot twists! We know how exciting as it can be to have all the hard-earned details stashed in your head, but let’s try to keep the spoilers out of the comments.
This week’s treasure:
Camping couples.
Your mission:
Find all those swoony scenes of couples camped out in a tent somewhere. Maybe they’ve ventured into the outdoors for a chance to get away — or maybe it’s for a chance to get closer. If you’ve seen Call It Love, then you know the varied effects a camping trip can have on the heart, so we’ll take camping couples in all their forms. And, sure, rooftop camping counts too!
Reference drama:
Call It Love (Episode 10)
