Holograma Mea Iubită (2020)

Boring and Stupid

Story

The beginning of the series was cute and had some skip-a-beat moments, but from episodes 5, it started to deteriorate in a ridiculous way. It became too silly, dragged on, and ventured into boring territories. FL was supposed to realize that it was no longer the hologram in front of her, indicating a complete disregard for human instinct and senses.


Acting

There is chemistry between them and the lead actor does a great job, you can really feel the differences between the two characters he portrays, but it's not enough.
The lead actress is extraordinarily annoying; her acting is bland, her facial expressions are identical in all scenes, and she looks like a child dressed as a businesswoman.

General

The series drags on unnecessarily. It could have been much more interesting considering that we are in a real revolution of artificial intelligence, but the series is truly an insult to viewers who already know what they are facing.

It started very frighteningly because it shows how this technology is beginning to materialize and the conduct involved (for example, regularly peeking into another person's life, invading their soul and emotions, emotional manipulation, guidance from the AI to manipulate others to achieve goals, the AI's insistence on being independent, and manipulating the person who created it and gave it the freedom to act; many things that could materialize in the worst possible way).

The main character creating the AI is also intolerable due to his lack of fairness. If it had been for a short time, it might have been bearable, but it goes on and on without any guilt, and he doesn't really seem like someone capable of representing the creation of a AI. He doesn't look smart, doesn't act smart, and isn't practical in representing one of the creators of existing AI. Usually, these are people with certain human abilities, not someone who avoids being human. It makes you really detest the character. I suppose if it were a funny comedy, the stupidity could be forgiven, but unfortunately, this is not the case.

One of the most underrated kdrama. Must Watch ?

I am not really into sci-fi but this drama, MY HOLO LOVE is really an exception! The story, plot, characters, and the OST are the best! Once you started to watch the ep 1, you will definitely be hook in this unpredictable, romance between an Al and a human. It's just soooo good to watch! I You feel that you don't wanted to end it coz it's just so pefect!

For the cast who portray, especially Yoon Hyun Min and Ko Sung Hee ; their chemistry is so natural! And for the director, writer, cast, and staff..thank you for making this kdrama, MY HOLO LOVE so amazing, that makes us viewers love this. <3

Definitely Highly recommended!

lovely Escapism

I don’t really know why I love that drama so much. I watched it as palate cleanser after my CLOY-obsession, a friend recommended it. And it was so amazing. I am not even interested in technology. Yoon Hyun Min was great as the ML, he is really eyecandy and there was a lot to see of him😉 Also, he dressed so well. My heart went out to him as Ko Nan Do and I also liked the FL. She was struggling so hard but overcame a lot. There could have been more kissing, but the romance was sweet and tore on my heartstrings somehow. I love my Tsundere hero with a heart of gold.

It was cute !! And the acting/chemistry was top notch

* SPOILERS ALERT*

If you liked "Are you human too ?" and "I'm not a robot" then you will definitely like this one ! In fact I preferred this one over the other two, I don't really know why it just clicked more with me. And if you like when the guy is pining/longing for the FL then this drama is also perfect for you ! I love this trope and it was 100% present here.

For starters the acting was perfect. I admit I began watching this drama because of the ML (I already loved the actor in "Tunnel" and "To all the guys who loved me") and here he was just so cute ! Well this adjective describes more the AI version to be honest but even the human version was pretty cute sometimes, despite his bad boy behavior. In fact, he did an amazing job in acting the 2 versions of him. It was uncanny how he seemed so innocent and gentle in one scene (AI) and more rude and "thuggish" in the next (human). But well they're the same essentially so you'll see that the roles can be reversed sometimes !

Now talking about the FL, I didn't see any of her previous works depiste "A year-end medley" and "While you were sleeping" (and I can't really say I remembered her in these roles) but here she really made her character stand out. She is just a lonely human being who longs for affection, exactly like the ML (even if he doesn't admit it at first). However I will give you an advice if you plan to watch this drama: prepare to see the FL cry a lot. I guess it makes sense in her situation but it was just a little too much for me (still watchable though). At least it doesn't make her a damsel in distress because despite all her crying, she still fights for her loved ones (within her own limits, she's not a superhero). The secondary characters were mainly pleasant (the FL's mother and friend, the ML's sister and coworker) but nothing too extraordinary.

The only downside for me was the last 3 episodes. It focused much more on the "confronting the villain" part than the romance part but I'll say it's understandable given the other genres of the drama (SF, drama). It was still enjoyable of course but I wish we had 1 more episode to appreciate the couple "officially" together. The writers gave us a "one year later" trick and it did its job for the most part, I just wanted more of them because I loved their dynamics and chemistry. The OST was pretty good too. Even if it's not really memorable, it still worked well and didn't disturb my focus.

In spite of my little disappointment in the way things were handled at the end, it was still a satisfying ending and I don't regret watching it. I hope you will give this drama a chance because it deserves to be more notorious and loved.

Loved it!!!

The beginning of the final episode made me cry for the ML's mom 😭 she looked so happy that her son wanted to interact with her, I guess this wasn't a usual occurrence, and that old bastard just had to ruin it by killing her the next day!!!

And that ending 🥺 it was so perfect. I cried too when they were saying goodbye to Holo, so I'm glad they at least finish the drama with a hopeful future for him. Hopefully they'll keep him a close family secret and NOT try to make him go commercial again. Or find some other safe way to slowly let the world know about him faaaaarrrr into the future.

It wasn't a perfect drama. There were parts I literally couldn't watch because of second hand embarrassment, so I skipped, but I don't regret getting to the end. There were also parts where logic failed, but I don't care. As long as issues aren't glaring, I'm willing to set aside logic for a good story. If the ending is amazing, I would forgive even a lackluster drama. I expected a good romance and got so much more, the actual romance needed some work, but the bromance between Holo and the ML was everything, especially as he began to evolve. The FL was annoying at times, but she was cool the last couple episodes, so all is forgiven.

I loved it. Maybe not all of it, but I definitely loved the entire final episode (and all of Holo). I wish this was the usual 16+ hour drama because I think the pacing in the beginning suffered from making the drama (and episodes) a bit short, but also because I'd just like to see more of Holo 😊.

Although it only have 12 episodes, I didn't feel like they were rush it. The series contained all the right ingredients for the ideal show and it got me hooked up from the first episode, it has no too many bureaucracy and not too many lovey-dovey scenes just the prefect amount. I watched 'Are you human' about an AI falling in love with a human, but it didn't feel right, I didn't like that show, but here it felt real, maybe because the bottom line was that an AI can never be a replacement for human contact.
The chemistry between the two main actors felt real and the male lead felt like an actual human being (unlike other series, where I felt that the male lead is over the top). Netflix Kdrama are so different from the regular Kdrama and its a good change, I hope they will have more series like that.

All of the episodes of this drama were supposedly released on Netflix the same day, despite that the script feels like it was written during live filming, the story is not entirely coherent & there are some character adjustments. Naturally it is for the best if one does not try to think at depth about the fake science present in this drama.

Outside of the above it's a cute little drama that doesn't have major annoyances. It's solid, fairly chill entertainment. The reason why it's only a 7 is that there is nothing outstanding either, nothing really stands out. It's just a standard kdrama with a scifi spin. (The love triangle is resolved in a fairly acceptable way and it never devolved to the swords and daggers drawn type. )

Ending is bittersweet

The drama is so annoying with the FL for me, I felt she was very selfish. She was in love with three men at the same time!!!! What kind of nonsense lonely human being is she? I am not jealous or anything, I just didn't find her emotions very realistic. I prefer the realtionship of Holo and it's owner. I was very sad for Holo and his departure, I seriously cried so much for atleast an hour. It touched my heart, I have never cried at a drama before, I miss Holo, I think I fell in love with his character just like the FL. The ML acted very nicely, so good, that I want a Holo for myself and I hope he remains a great memory for me as well.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx T-T HOLO SARANGHAEEEEEEE <3 Forever xxxxxxxx

unique tropes and dialogue

this is one of the most unique kdrama i’ve watched. honestly, i have never seen other kdramas that were similar to this one.

let’s go in depth about the characters. the FL is way too clingy and annoying, which is why i dislike her. when the ML was pretending to be HOLO and the FL found out, was it that big of a deal that she got mad? another thing i hate, is that the FL acts like she made HOLO. true, she owned HOLO for quite some time, but that was only because of an inconvenience. when the ACTUAL owner wanted HOLO back, she refused to give it. i don’t know why, but i got pissed because of that. now, let’s talk about the ML. the ML is very likable. that’s all i have to say. his acting is really good, and i love how he portrayed the character go nan-do in this series.

what i like about this show is that there isn’t really a “love triangle.” HOLO and the ML are literally the same people, except for the fact that HOLO is an AI and acts more professional. HOLO felt uncomfortable while going on “dates” with the FL because he’s loyal to his actual owner, aka best friend (ML). it’s sad how something that’s not even a human being has more common sense than one.

overall, i could rewatch this show many times and still wouldn’t get bored. i definitely recommend watching this!

A gem for sci-fi romantic comedy kdrama lovers

I watched this unique drama when it first came out and I did not have any expectations for it. But wow this one is definitely a hidden gem. If you like sci-fi/romantic comedy kdramas then you NEED to watch this one. First of all I loved the storyline, I swooned over Nan Do, I think Yoon Hyun Min is a wonderful actor and his duality between the two different characters was very well done. I loved Nan Do and So Yeon's chemistry and their growth as individual characters, I loved their differences as characters. This drama made me laugh, cry, and feel warmth. Definitely a gem on netflix in their kdrama category!

I almost didn't watch this as it sound so cheesy to me!

I ended up loving this and it's definitely in a top spot for me, and I will probably rewatch this multiple times.
I loved all the characters and the acting was well done.

I felt this had a very fast paced story line (maybe because it was only 12 episodes it was forced) but I loved the pace, one of my biggest complaints with Dramas is they tend to sometimes drag/get drawn out too much, but this did not have that problem.

On top of all that I absolutely loved the music and ended up having to find the soundtrack to listen to in my free time.

Overall a fun, fast paced show, that I think is very rewatchable! :)
