when he falls first + harder ☆
my favorite trope ever. basically, these are dramas where the guy has been in love with her for quite some time, but she's oblivious to those feelings + it has scenes of him being lovesick (& adorable) only for her.
note: i added the trope i think they entail so you can choose which one is more appealing <3
