-> '''Seonga:''' This isn't a ''movie''!
-> '''Frost:''' It's a comic, isn't it...

* OddFriendship: “Friendship” may be pushing it, but by the end of season 2, it’s obvious that Yoon has a crush on Frost, and Frost at least genuinely cares for her in a way.

* RudeHeroNiceSidekick: Is the rude hero to Yoon’s nice sidekick.

* GoodIsNotDumb: In a literal sense, she's the sweetest and purest main character, but is a far cry from dumb. But she does tend to be underestimated by others for her bubbly and sweet demeanor.

* OddFriendship: Although the term “friendship” may be pushing it, has this with Frost.

* RudeHeroNiceSidekick: Is the nice sidekick to Frost's rude hero.

* AmbiguousDisorder: While we know his [[spoiler: frontal lobe damage]] is a big factor in his inability to emphasize with others, as well as his difficulty in understanding certain feelings. But we still don't know how it happened.

* AmbiguousDisorder: While we know his [[spoiler: frontal lobe damage]] is a big factor in his inability to emphasize with others, as well his difficulty in understanding certain feelings, we still don't know how it happened.

* BigDamnHeroes: Happens surprisingly often. Such as when [[spoiler: he stops the actor from accidentally slashing his throat,]] and [[spoiler: he and Seonga stop Jeonghyun from committing suicide.]]

* IntelligenceEqualsIsolation: Well, it's not the [[InsufferableGenius only reason why]] people tend to dislike him and avoid him, but it's certainly a major factor.

* ManipulativeBastard: While many of his plans to help clients are reminiscent of a MagnificentBastard, they usually do have shades of this as well. Often, they’re both ingenious and manipulative at the same time.

* PrematurelyGreyHaired: Frost's hair is completely white, despite only being in his thirties. It's all but stated he got it through some sort of trauma and/or accident.

* WhiteHairBlackHeart: While not as extreme as many examples, his LackOfEmpathy and his IceKing status, as well as his white hair, make him this.

* OlderThanHeLooks: Seonga is shocked to learn that he's thirty-five. It gets promptly lampshaded by another character who mentions that he still looks lichee's in his twenties.

* HeroicBsod: Has this after [[spoiler: she hears Frost call Seol, her sister and his first patient who had just committed suicide, little more then an experiment.]]

* ToxicFriendInfluence: What Chun worries is Frost's influence on Seonga. Frost himself seems to be aware of the possibility as well, as he [[spoiler; encourages Seonga to study abroad.]]

* ToxicFriendInfluence: What Chun worries about with Frost's influence on Seonga. Frost himself seems to be aware of the possibility as well.

* GoodIsNotDumb: She’s the sweetest and purest main character, but is a far cry from dumb.

He is the main character, a counseling psychologist who cannot emphasize with others.

* AmbiguousDisorder: While we know his [[spoiler: frontal lobe damage]] is a big factor in his problems, we still don't know how it happened.

* DefrostingIceKing: Starts off cold (no pun intended), but begins to display stronger emotions as the series goes on.

* DefectiveDetective: While it's clear that his inability to emphasize with others can help solve cases, it's shown that it also places him into as more trouble than it helps.
* DisabilitySuperpower: Deconstructed. While Frost's lack of empathy makes him more objective and able to solve cases more accurately, the downsides of his condition are shown far more than the positives.

** Also to [[spoiler: Moon. Frost can’t feel empathy, but he is trying to understand compassion and affection. He rarely smiles, and even then his smiles are not quite smiles. People don’t tend to like him much. Moon appears kind, sympathetic, charming, and well liked. But he also lacks empathy, and manipulates others for the sake of his experiments. He also doesn’t hesitate to hurt people, even going to far as to murder others, whether psychologically or physically. Even their appearances are opposites: Frost has curly white hair with thin red eyes, and no glasses. Moon has straight dark hair, wide gray eyes, and glasses.]]
* LackOfEmpathy: Because of his [[spoiler: frontal lobe damage.]]
* ManipulativeBastard: While many of his plans to help clients are reminiscent of a MagnificentBastard, they usually do have shades of this as well. Often, they’re both ingenious and manipulative at the same time.

* BoringButPractical: She objects to Frost doing impractical things to help clients, like [[spoiler: breaking and entering.]]

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is her first name spelled Seonga, Seong-Ah, or Seung-Ah? It depends on what translation you read.

!!Dr. Frost [[spoiler: NamBong Baek]]

* {{Foil}}: To Seonga. He is an older, experienced, SherlockHomage psychologist who is objective, logical, and makes fast deductions. However, he’s also cold, cannot understand empathy, and often alienates people. She is a young, inexperienced student who is majoring in psychology. She is also over-emotional, can be illogical, and gets in over her head. But she’s kind, people smart, and understands affection and empathy. Also to [[spoiler: Moon.
