#2024 Round Up – Childhood Connection

This is usually one of my least favorite troupes, but for k-dramas, I thought the version of it used in No Gain, No Love was more effective than most because it resonated in such opposing ways with each half of the couple rather than simply suggesting “fated love”.

However, my favorite 2024 take on this was in the Chinese show Will Love in Spring. Watching two teenagers pulled towards each other by their shared rage at the universe was much more intriguing than a typical meet cute.
