What three times? Err, actually, we're not really sure...

Minami Hina is a young Korean-Japanese woman who has come to Korea for university. Friendly and observant, yet not without the occasional social mis-step, Hina tries to learn more about what it means to be a cross-culture Korean in the 21st century. With her practical, down-to-earth room mate Won and cantankerous, fresh-out-of-the-army Junho, Mina experiences modern Korean society in all its joys and foibles as she finds out for herself what kind of a person she really is.

Tropes used in The Three Times include:
  • Alpha Bitch: The bully at Hina's old school in Japan, complete with mean girl posse.
  • Art Evolution
  • Badass Bookworm: Just because he's an art major student, doesn't mean you can beat him physically.
  • Bishonen: Junho, especially after Art Evolution kicks in.
  • Comically Serious: Junho
  • Cosplay: Used to nerdtastic degrees during the college festival arc.
  • No Koreans in Japan: Averted. Very, very, averted.
  • No Social Skills: Junho falls into this way to often than is good for him. Or anyone near him.
  • Shout-Out: To a whole wagon load of popular animes, mangas, dramas, and just East Asian pop culture in general.
