This is probably the first drama where I sided more with the Male lead than the female lead, and it's mostly because of Seung Ho's acting. Chae Soo Bin is not so shabby herself and she had to portray 3 characters, as a robot, as human, and as a human pretending to be a robot. However I could not relate to her when she managed to deeply hurt the person she is supposedly striving hard to protect. I did not like any of the secondary characters at all, and their individual story lines just bored the heck out of me, except when they are interacting with the lead characters. But this drama showcase that love, whether familial or romantic, conquers all.

robot tapi boong
dimulai dari cerita ga masuk akal ML dari awal. dan pilihan hidup FL yang lebih ga masuk akal. namanya juga drakorkarna udah lama banget dan lupa lupa inget sama ceritanya.
skor low karena plot yang ga terlalu menarik minat saya dari awal nonton. genre romance sejujurnya agak sulit buat dapet skor tinggi karena selain plot yang sudah banyak sehingga ga buat penasaran. chemistry leax actor juga penting buat di sampaikan ke pemirsa. sementara di drama kali ini masih kurang untuk lead role nya

So much fun, so much heartbreak, so much love
Whoa, this one packs a PUNCH! Once the heartbreak starts, they crank the dial up to TEN and it STAYS THERE A WHILE! D*mn, I had a hard time making through this one because of this, it really jerked those tears! But it’s all good in the end, so it’s worth it. :)The acting was GREAT in this! Especially the ML. His heartbreak is so palpable! But there is also a lot of humor in it. It’s a bit silly, but the whole premise is only bought by throwing away logic in the first place, so if you picked this title knowing it’s premise, you can’t complain about it after the fact. :) Made me laugh a lot. And cry a lot. It was quite enjoyable. Maybe not the deepest of stories or characters but deep enough to believe and care about. Their love was quite believable, imo, and wonderful to watch. Excellent chemistry between the leads and everyone else. The side characters were surprisingly interesting too, and all of them had good actors palying the roles.
Very very funny too, for the first third or more and then sporadically from there. Was worth my time and emotional investment. Was never bored. Interesting to watch all the time, if sometimes a bit emotionally exhausting. I will certainly want to revisit this one in the future.

A fluffy cyber fairy tale
Looking for a modern fairy tale which involves a robot? Served.The key elements of a fairy tale are all there, but the author decided to mix a bit the roles, making the story even more funny and amazing. The princess is the prince and the prince is the princess, where the villains are the only ones who keep being actual villains (with some final surprises). Also, the romance is not the sole fil-rouge along the story, but actually there's a content made of amusing entertainment, which lighten the story even when more dramatic parts show up.
I found the plot original in its nonsenses, just because I considered it as a modern fairy tale. So I could even justify some parts, which out of context would sound unbelievable, but which give to the story continuity and genuineness instead.
The actors are brilliant, not only the leads, but also the support ones. Chae Soo Bin and Yoo Seung Ho are constantly immersed in their roles, and successfully render their characters credible and funny.
The only thing I found obnoxious is the split of the traditional 60-75 minutes lasting episodes in two parts of 30-35-ish minutes each: since the show was originally clearly intended made of 16 episodes of the usual duration, very often the transition from odd to even episodes lead to just rudely interrupt a scene.
Amazing, and worth watching.

One of my favorite KDramas
I saw this series years ago when I was trying to see what's the fuss regarding Korean dramas and this series really made a good impression on me. Production values are at par or even better than Hollywood films. The story line was quite interesting and intriguing. And was acted very well by all the cast.The male and female lead was perfect, with good emotional connection, together with all the supporting cast. This is truly one of best and fun series everyone should not miss. I have rewatched this drama after a year and it was still fun to watch.Was this review helpful to you?
When you need good romance with no drama!
Rewatched it twice only few months apart, it is definitely one of the best feel good K-drama romance series.You can enjoy the romance pretty well from the beginning.
There is no stupid misunderstandings and problems are sorted out quickly.
No yelling and opposing parents (at least for the main couple).
The FL is emotionally strong and brave woman, not a dumb crybaby.
The ML is nice and forgiving without being softie
The story is unusual and make sense almost all the time (very very rare for kdrama)
There are no big wholes in script.
The focus is on the main couple and the side characters are really supporting the story well.
There is no nerve wracking vilain (the bad guys characters are actually believable).
Awesome series!

At first I was not interested in watching it even though my friends keep on recommending it to me. The way hoe they describe it don't excite me but in the end I found myself watching it for some reasons. First, one of my teacher mentioned it in our class and take note she is an X'ers (from X Generation) so I can't relate to them. Second, because of the main characters. Seung Hoo is not the main character (male) is someone I know after watching his movies - namely; The Magician and Seondal; the man who sold a river which was by the way a great movie. The female lead is one of the character in the Series Sassy Go Go so I know a little bit of her acting skills.
So I watched the series.... and it exceeded my expectation. I started watching it yesterday and I finished it the next day. I just can't believe that the said series is a commercial failure in SoKor but for me it was a great series.You can't judge a series or a movie based on its summary.
I've already convinced some of my friends to watch it and if you still have doubts in watching it please don't. You would find yourself loving it in the end. I am trying to be objective here but I can't since I started loving it. At least I will not be an alien anymore in front of my friends if they start talking about it.

Humorous & Heartfelt
Let me tell you - this show and this romance had me hook, line, and sinker.❤ The romance is the heart and soul of this show. Kim Min Kyu and Jo Ji Ah are electrifying on screen. They each find solace and value in themselves from each other, building each other up even as the lie tears them apart. While I think the lie could have been releveled earlier, I still loved the juxtaposition of it all.
❤ The show featured several other romances outside the main couple, all of which were sweet and funny.
❤ If you've read any of my reviews in the past, you know how much I adore found family. Kim Min Kyu, Jo Ji Ah, and the Santa Maria robotics team are the perfect example of lonely people coming to lean and love each other.
❤ The concept of a robot looking and functioning so much like a human has always fascinated me. How would we as human process such a evolution? While much of the show focuses on the romance, it does explore the actions of such a technology out in the real world. It was such a beautiful and moving experience watching Aji-3's journey from concept to reality.

This review may contain spoilers
oh my gosh.
Originally when i first read the title, it kind of through me off because i thought that it would be about a man falling in love with a robot, which honestly isn’t the best storyline. But when i say that it was far from what i expected, i mean it in the best possible way.This is one of the fluffiest, cutest dramas i’ve ever watched.
If you read my Business Proposal review (which is very unlikely) you would know i LOVE cliches. I am the biggest cliche fan you will find. If the drama is about a rich man from this great company, in line to be CEO, and he falls in love with a clumsy, not so rich girl then i am watching it right away. The parents of the rich people died? I know that comes up in most dramas you’ve watched, its so overused and practically comes up in every drama. But no matter what it still catches my eye. I watch it no matter what. And this drama included all the cliches there is. A rich man ✅ no so rich girl ✅ parents have died ✅ a love triangle ✅ the love triangle is fixed by the other girl in the story ✅ someone is always left single by the end of the show ✅ lots of angst, to the point where the main couple breaks up and someone runs away✅ and most of all, a happy ending ✅. It ticks all the boxes, which is more of a reason for you to watch it.
If you are looking for a romantic comedy which fulfils all the cliches you can ever ask for, a romantic comedy that is ACTUALLY funny, a romantic comedy you can watch when you have nothing to watch; then this is really the best drama to cure all your problems.
