Love Fiction operates within the traditional framework of the romantic comedy genre. The plot revolves around the cyclical nature of romantic obsession, viewed through a male writer's perspective. The film relies on established clichés, such as the passive muse, which reinforces conventional gender dynamics without challenging them. While the film offers a culturally specific South Korean perspective, it remains a homogeneous genre piece, lacking characters who reflect more than one aspect of diversity or significant disruption of social hierarchies.
