2.Ballerina- FL's friend -This character's death initiated FL's revenge arc and drives the plot
3.Mouse- The doctor- A mirror (or foil depending how you look at it) to the protagonist. He was also used as red herring to confuse the audience about the identity of the serial killer
Ballerina's one reminds me of all leads' parents who died only to give leads a traumatic backstory/a reason to get revenge

the death, disappearance, kidnapping etc of a loved one or significant person is a common plot device to set up the main character's motivations. You can apply this to alot of type of plots (revenge,mystery,crime etc).

Yeah, I just remember the post on the Mother's Day like 'minute of silence to moms of the main characters who died to give their kids a tragic backstory' 🙈

7. I think you could make a case for the FL of Memories of the Alhambra turning out to be a plot point. I know there's an acceptable amount of screen time given to setting up the relationship, and she does have some substance, tastes, and goals of her own. But overall, she reminded me of her identical twin construct inside the game - decorative context for the ML.
8. I'm watching Joy of Life 2 right now, and given the intricacies of the plot in this series, there are several characters who appear and disappear to advance the plot. I feel like they gave Teng Zi Jing just enough backstory and motivation to have him serve as a motivation for the ML. And now that I'm on part 2, they're getting more mileage out of his family!
Tbh the twin from the game was more intriguing plot line 😅 I can't explain but I was mesmerized whenever she appeared playing that melody
