What is your problem ? Not only Asian, okay.. you better check before you want say anything..
Very simple.. don't like it.. find other .. there's plenty.. no need to say asian or whatever..
I did check and I am myself an Asian/Taiwanese who read and watched several Asian dramas, novels and comics. Regardless of the genre there was often the sudden appearance of a psychotic stalker that threatens the main pair...
I enjoy reading Unromantic but I find it annoying that an antagonistic stalker has to be suddenly in that story.
Nothing can top Indian soap opera shows with their rebirth, surprise twins and ghosts.
no, this is just yaoi things. One of the popular troupe of yaoi. I like this troupe of yaoi so... u know. Or this could be the influence of Killing stalking, before there's not that much stalker in yaoi.
I get the the impression that the Indian Soap Operas are more overdramatic and over the top than telenovelas.
No, I am pretty sure that is a common trope in many Thai, Korean, Chinese, Japanese storytelling dramas. You should see how many stalkers appeared in Shoujo and Josei mangas.
It s their culture
Let's not forget about all the amnesia arc's, the awful disguises, the cntinuous repition of the same dialogue using different words, all the villains becoming nice/ going to jail.
Does almost every Asian Drama/Story needs a psycho stalker as the standard surprise antagonist? I saw that plenty times in China, Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea entertainment media.
I am starting to think they only exist as dramatic plot device to increase the bond of the two romantic main leads AND to make the ML look more heroic/desirable/sympathetic...
There is really sth wrong about using this trope.
