A quick glance through dramaland shows that we’re smack in the middle of a rom-com season. One of the hallmarks of this genre are the tropes that drive the romance, and each of these tropes have their individual appeal — from childhood friends to lovers and chaebol office romances to slow burns and contract relationships. The serendipity of first loves and second chance romances are not left out of the fun, and there’s also the non-scientifically backed theories of erasers and DNA lovers. With this much variety of tropes on air at almost the same time, we’re truly spoiled for choice and there’s something for every romance fan out there.
So, what’s your favorite romance trope?
