[K-drama Treasure Hunt] Reaching for the top shelf as skinship
by mary
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 month 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 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 month’s treasure:
Reaching for the top shelf as skinship
If the OTP has a height difference, you bet they’ll be doing this: one of them tries to reach for an object on a high shelf, and the other one leans closer to fetch it for them. Then they’ll face each other in close proximity and… it’s like cuddling. But make it vertical.
Can you name dramas that are guilty of giving us this guilty pleasure?
Reference drama:
City Hunter, Fight My Way
P.S. Y’all please help me out here because I only remember these two old shows! *cries in back pain*
