* TattooSharpie: Min draws one of a dagger on her arm as a young child, which can be seen in all of the flashbacks (although it isn't clarified if it lasts, or she just keeps redrawing it). In the present, as a pre-teen, she prefers to carry [[KnifeNut the actual thing]].

* KnifeNut: Min loves butterfly knives. She carries one (or several) in her jacket at all times.

* TheyDo: [[spoiler:By the very end of the game.]]

* StylisticSuck: Whenever something happens that is simultaneously heartwarming and silly, the background music turns into a badly-played off-key recorder cover of "[[Film/Titanic1997 My Heart Will Go On]]".

-->'''Diya:''' No one says "DIE-ya".
-->'''Min:''' The substitute teacher does.
-->'''Diya:''' The substitute teacher sucks.

* BrickJoke: A particularly ''hilarious'' and awful one if you [[TrollingTranslator chose to lie to Min,]] and teach her "I like to fart." in Tamil instead of "Hello." [[spoiler:(Though, it's not as if Min is being completely honest with her Korean lesson, either.)]] After their [[spoiler:years long separation and unexpectedly meeting again,]] the sweet and heartwarming moment is [[MoodWhiplash effectively ruined]] by Min happily greeting Diya in Tamil in ''exactly'' the way you taught her all those years ago.
