The South Korean entertainment scene has become bigger and bigger over the years, dominating not only domestic but also the international scene. Works like "Squid Game," "Money Heist Korea: Joint Economic Area," "Alchemy of Souls," "Little Women" and more have all enjoyed syndrome-level successes.
However, some dramas contain overused narratives that have become too tricky, controversial and problematic in the modern world.
As the new year is fast approaching, here are some tropes that fans wish to retire in 2022. Read on to know more!
The Amnesia Trope
Have you ever experienced watching a very great series and then the main character suddenly loses their memories? Amnesia has been one of the core tropes of K-dramas.
If it's not cliche enough, stumbling into a kiss takes it to another level. Though K-dramas are fiction, "falling into an accidental kiss" became an overrated trope that fans have unironically loved.

But as the world becomes more modernized, many drama buffs have analyzed that not only "accidental smooches" are non-consensual, it's not really romantic most times.
Some of the 2022 releases like "Business Proposal" and "Dali and Cocky Prince" have incorporated this trope to their narrative, and fans just wish this would retire in 2023!
