Don't get your panties in a knot, that's what the ForeignExchangeStudent is for!
The ForeignExchangeStudent, officially there to soak in the country's culture, will often be beautiful (often subject, however, to their home country's PhenotypeStereotype) and mysterious (due to their foreign background, duh). Their home country varies, but it's often from the United States (if the setting is Eastern) or Asia (if the setting is Western). Exchange students from Europe also pop up every once in a while (in that case, students from the United Kingdom are fairly common).
Common plot points will be the existing characters having quite a culture shock upon their arrival due to assumptions about what they would be like (and vice-versa), finding the exchange student interesting and exotic, which might rocket them to the top of the PopularityFoodChain, the exchange student having trouble with the language/customs of the area, and how they fit into the existing TrueCompanions dynamic.
Personalities vary in fiction, but making the exchange student a ShrinkingViolet, a NiceGuy, or a DefrostingIceQueen seems fairly common (the last one especially). Moral alignment also differs as their "air of mystery" can mean either shyness or pure evil, but they're generally nice kids.
Naturally, the ForeignExchangeStudent will commonly be the LoveInterest of at least one character (which might cause complications when they have to leave). Unless, of course, they're around to cause trouble...
See also NewTransferStudent. May overlap with FunnyForeigner or ForeignPeopleAreSexy. If the exchange student is European, EuropeansAreKinky is often used, especially if she's female.

The ForeignExchangeStudent, officially there to soak in the country's culture, will often be [[TheBeautifulPeople beautiful]] (often subject, however, to their home country's PhenotypeStereotype) and mysterious (due to their foreign background, duh). Their home country varies, but it's often from the United States (if the setting is Eastern) or Asia (if the setting is Western). Exchange students from Europe also pop up every once in a while (in that case, students from the United Kingdom are fairly common).

And, of course, being an OccidentalOtaku.
