Nunadrama, a term coined by philosopher and spiritual teacher, Eckhart Tolle, refers to the play of life, the dance of the universe, and the ever-unfolding drama of existence. It is an invitation to observe life without judgment, to witness the unfolding of events without attachment, and to find meaning in the midst of chaos. Shooting stars, in this context, become a manifestation of nunadrama, a symbol of the infinite and the ephemeral, the cosmic and the mysterious.

Drawing on the recurring visual motif of the shooting star across Korean melodrama, Japanese experimental theater, and science-fiction streaming series, we argue that the shooting star operates as a non-anthropomorphic chronotope —a collapsed node of time (desire, death, wish) and space (infinite void, atmosphere, screen). By linking this motif to the concept of an Infinite Universe (post-Einsteinian, post-digital), we propose that -nunadrama- inverts classical tragedy: instead of a hero against fate, we find a grieving sibling/nuna figure whose wish upon a falling star generates a branching multiverse of unresolved timelines. The paper concludes that the ellipsis ("...") in the source prompt is not an absence but a structural principle—the necessary suspension of closure in an infinite universe of data.
