* ArmouredClosetGay: A male high school student beats up another one for ringing his love alarm, but he immediatelly stops and runs away when Hye-yeong comes in his defense. The truth is that he likes men himself, and the reason he runs away from Hye-yeong is because he has a crush on him.
* ButtMonkey: Duk-gu is the laughing stock of his school, and he's especially hated by his crush Gul-mi.
* ChickMagnet: Sun-oh's Love Alarm is always ringing, and there are literally thousands of people who have a crush on him. Justified, since he's an international model. He has no interest in them, and only has eyes for Jo-jo, since she likes him for who he is, not for his celebrity status.
* ClashingCousins: Jo-jo has a terrible relationship with her cousin Gul-mi, who blames Jo-jo for all of her family's problems, since Jo-jo has been raised by Gul-mi's mother ever since she became an orphan. It only gets worse when Jo-jo begins a relationship with Sun-oh, who Gul-mi has a crush on.

* LoveTriangle: The story focuses of the love triangle between Jo-jo, Sun-oh, and Hye-yeong.
* LoveDodecahedron: While main LoveTriangle is that of Jo-jo, Sun-oh, and Hye-yeong, several other characters are romantically connected to them one way or another. In the beginning, Jo-jo has a boyfriend, Il-sik, who Jung-go has a crush on, so the latter tries to ruin their relationship. Gul-mi is attracted to Sun-oh, and is very jealous when Jo-jo starts dating him; meanwhile, Duk-gu is attracted to Gul-mi, even though she despises him. Later on, Sun-oh has a new girlfriend, Yuk-jo.
* {{Nephewism}}: Jo-jo is raised by her aunt after becoming an orphan.
* NotWithThemForTheMoney: Jo-jo geniunely loves Sun-oh for who he is, not for his money or fame.
