The Un-trope

The first time something original caught my eye in Asian dramas.

Everything has to be shown the first time before the other shows copy it, until eventually you have a trope. Trope: Something recurring across a genre or type of literature, such as the "mad scientist" of horror movies or "once upon a time" as an introduction to fairy tales, similar to archetype and cliché. The "un-trope" is unusual and not common.
