Nu Sunt un Robot (2017)

Loved

First review here. The love story here is extraordinary. People keep referring to it as fluffy and cute. I think it is more very sweet at the beginning. I liked the ending too. Tied everything up nicely. The middle, I suppose, is fluffy -- if your definition of fluffy means tear your heart out of your chest, slam it against the wall, put it through a meat grinder and throw the pieces on the street for the wild dogs to eat. I had to fast forward to the ending to reassure myself that it would get less painful as I sobbed into my pillow. But man, it strung me along for a while.

The ML's conveying of a huge range of emotions is extraordinary. The actor is brilliant in this role. The FL plays a robot throughout a lot of the show, so has to remain emotionless. Her human versus robot emotions are beautifully done.

The rest of the cast did a great job. I'm not usually a fan of the silly comic relief characters, but they were cute and funny and I didn't want to fast forward through them like i do in other dramas.

Highly recommend it. Haven't seen any of the ML and FL's other works, but hope they both got roles worthy of their acting after this.

Basicamente passei agonia até o ep 25 meados dos 26 e o REAL ROMANCE vai até o 32

? pulei MUITA coisa nesse dorama

• não consegui gostar do casal secundário pq tive nojo do ex e raiva da cientista.

• os vilões PULEI TUDO, mal vi as reviravoltas

As únicas coisas que me sustentaram foram os protas e só gostava e via cenas com:
os protas
a familia da prota
a amiga namoradeira

Fora que o romance real começa só no episódio 26.
Apesar disso, a atuação é muito boa e a ost bem legal.
Não recomendo ver inteiro, veja só a partir do EP 26 e vai dar tudo certo.

the significance of human connection

This was on my list for a long time, but I just couldn't get past the premise. A guy who's allergic to people falls in love with a robot? It sounded so incredibly stupid,and yet I still ended up watching after much hesitation. The plot however really shows the creativity of kdramas. The plot could literally be anything, no matter how weird or insane it sounds and the kdrama could somehow make it work. The power of imagination I tell ya.

The plot is not only unique but it's surprising in the sense that the drama ended up better than I expected it to be. The robot storyline was so well done despite it's ridiculousness.

Yoo Seungho did great as the ML. He did a great job of capturing the pain and loneliness that his character had. The drama did a good job on his childhood flashbacks. It was a great way to see how he ended up the way he did and how his illness affected his life for the worse. I don't remember which one exactly but that one crying scene with him really made me emotional.
Chae Soo Bin was pretty good as well. I liked her much more as Ji Ah but she was decent at playing a robot. Of course there were times where her cover should've been blown but if u just go with it you'll be fine. Maybe a part of Mingyu wanted to believe that Aji was real because he was that desperate to feel the love and connection he had never really felt. My favorite scene with her was when she clogged the toilet LMAO.
At the heart, I feel this show is about the need and power of human connection. Having a genuine connection is one of the most special things you can encounter in life. It's what humans were made to do. Connect with one another. I like that this show explores the meaning of having someone be there for you and understand you. Whether you're in someone's life for a short while or a long time, you never know what you can mean to that person.

I loved it! Yoo Seung Ho and Chae Soo Bin are my first-time viewing these two. YSH played an absolutely hard role in having illness and was great at it... Human Allergies... who doesn't have that? Too funny! I did my research on this actor and his vocals are on point! Hope to see more of him. Chao Soo Bin also played two hard roles and she knocked them out of the park with excellence. This was a great and cute story, the story flowed perfectly. The cast makes it run smoothly for the writer. There were no fights or revenge with the female parts about one man... which is always good for me to see... "no Fighting" lol. I wished I would've seen the robot they ended up with. I love robotics!

This was a really solid romance drama! Of course, going into this I didn't except a deep story or plot; I simply wanted a fun and cute drama, which is EXACTLY what this is.
The premise, while interesting, is super unrealistic and not incredibly complex or deep. However, the writers keep it interesting enough for 32 half-hour episodes.
As for the cast and acting, I couldn't have asked for a better cast. Not only were the leads Chae Soobin and Yoo Seungho incredibly warm and lovely at their own individual roles, but their chemistry together was amazing. The other characters were also very fun and likable.
The music, like the drama itself, is very catchy and cute, but nothing amazing.
Overall, I would recommend this to anyone who wants a light and very romantic drama! Also I absolutely LOVE the cast!

Must watch k-drama

Light hearted, lovely chemistry but not satisfying enough

The chemistry between 2 leads is really good. The story has a promising premise, and the drama is pretty interesting... But Just up to ep 20...

The unnecessary business politics takes up so much screentime. I need more romance of our leads.

Also, the chemistry in the friendship of Min Kyu and the Santa Maria team seems forced, many scenes seem so corny (for example where they all sit watching Aji-3 go outside for the first time)..., the Aji 3 character part is corny too...

The side couples romance is not that cute either... Welp... Except for the kinda villain couple, their chem is pretty good...

The ending seems rushed,... Haiz.... They could've added more cute moments for our main couples... Where is the wedding, the kids, the future life....

Chae Soobin and Seung ho's acting is good tho... I feel touching in the emotional parts... The break up scene between fml and her ex was good too... Also, this drama has the hottest kissing scene i've ever seen (kitchen ep).

But overall, the pacing of this drama is too slow for me, and how they solve conflict is... questionable... The acting saves the show tbh... Later on, they have nothing to add in the story and it's so dry... As someone said in the discussion, the ending seems like a totally different show, it lost its romcom charm, the potential i feel in the chemistry slowly fades... Like ML came back from military, they kiss, and boom, ending?? Wuttt??? They could have portrayed how different our couple is after they start dating, like, the arrogant guy become a total puppy or sth... Loll... At least that what i wanna see

Also, a random useless rant, no one in this drama actually speaks good English lol, including the intelligent robot...

I enjoyed it anyway.... Chae soobin is soooooo pretty

Belle surprise

Voilà une série qui m’a vraiment fait passer un bon moment.

L’histoire de départ est intéressante (sans être révolutionnaire) mais c’est surtout la mise en parallèle avec la maladie de Kim Min Kyu qui donne du piment à l’ensemble.

Très belle surprise aussi au niveau du jeu d’acteurs, que j’ai trouvé juste tout au long de la série, tant pour les rôles principaux que pour les rôles secondaires, bien exploités aussi.

Seul petit regret, le côté SF et robotique est finalement mis un peu de côté, il aurait été sympa de voir plus de scènes mettant en avant la technologie.

Bref, un excellent moment passé en compagnie de AJI-3 ❤️

I was so hooked to the show!

I started watching it because i was really stressed from studying for my exams so i just wanted to watch something light and funny to relieve my stress. The summary sounded so funny its like the writer wrote the story on crack i love it! So i just clicked into it with not much expectations. But boy was that a wrong decision. I dont normally get really hooked on rom com dramas but i got so hooked on this one. I really just wanted something to watch during my free time but then i started freeing time to watch it despite my busy schedule. I couldnt stop thinking about the show and couldnt concentrate on revsing. I started waking up earlier so i can watch it. I watch it on the way to school i watch it in the toilet i watch it when i tie my shoe its crazy! Then i decided i cant let this drama hinder my study progress anymore so i just finished half of it in one day. Anyways if youre looking for a light fluffy funny rom com this is definintely for you!
