Maybe not a really good idea to watch this drama after masterpiece like Life on Mars. So many plotholes, irritating…
I went into this drama with no expectations so was pleasantly surprised though it was overlong imo. However, you have to suspend a huge chunk of reality to enjoy and just go with the flow.
7/10 for me. I did enjoy the drama but I just couldn't relate to a love story between a human and a robot.
Yeah, I'm with you on the 7/10. I enjoyed the ride though I thought 16 episodes would have been fine. But he's still a robot so, umm, yeah. I thought it would have been great for NS and So Bong to be better human beings than they were at episode 1 and leading productive lives. That would have been fine with me.
My favourite sentence in the drama so far: "I guess good looks are genetically inherited" YOU DON'T SAY?
LOL A few yeas back when Chris Hemsworth won People Magazine's Sexiest Man of the Year, he thanked his parents re: the dna. I thought it was a nice way of indicating that while it's great to be on a magazine cover, it's not like he personally did anything to deserve it other than taking care of himself, of course.
I can understand that based on the description the natural concerns people have about the age differences emotionally…
Thanks for this. I've been thinking the same thing. He's aged as well but has wrapped himself in a bubble when it comes to human contact with his nephew being the exception...barely. So , sure, she's been in a coma but he has been in a self-inflicted one.
Interesting article. I find myself looking more toward human nature especially regarding the female lead. While…
LOL Didn't even consider it that way. Maybe because -again- it is human nature to be petty, envious etc. It's just not the good side of our natures. But, yes, I see what the title is about now.
At the one place where they wouldn't hire her because she was older than the manager and it would be uncomfortable....geesh. I supervised people 15 plus years older than me and also had people younger than me higher on the totem pole so I'm having to wrap my head around that.
I do know and understand the cultural difference re: age/sunbaes - but sometimes a scene like this happens and it just hits me.
Is it weird that I'm shipping Seo Ri with Yoo Chan than the male lead?? They are just so nice to look at !
I was thinking the same thing because they are on the same wave length. I am really interested in how they are going to deal with a 30 year old having the mental age of 17 when the romance aspect kicks in. This is the rare drama where a time skip might make sense.
Interesting article. I find myself looking more toward human nature especially regarding the female lead. While I get she appreciates the softer version of Shin, I can't accept that somewhere she's not saying...he's a robot, there's no long term thing that's gonna go on here. When she is exclaiming to the mother, "you're a bad mom", I'm thinking it's a robot not human. I enjoy the drama but there is a disconnect for me because I answer the question: Are You Human Too? Why, no it's not.
Having said all that, I'm suspending reality and enjoying the drama. It's been pretty well constructed with some twists and turns along the way though I do think perhaps 16 episodes would have been enough.
If she were in coma for 13 years, she would actually look like that guy from Erased manga, all skinny and kinda…
I was actually super impressed they had her doing physical therapy so I was actually pleasantly surprised. But - yeah - she would be fed through a tube for 13 years so it would have been a much longer process to get out of that hospital.
i am really curious is Yang Se Jong that good ? i never get to see him act before but judging from his 5 dramas…
I was afraid that since I watched him in half of Temperature of Love (before dropping due to story), that his character or portrayal would be too similar since they are both romance dramas. This hasn't happened at all so I will give him that.
OMG,I just finished reading the webtoon and I loved it. A beautiful story, not just the romance part but also…
I haven't read the webtoon yet and it sounds great, but - to be fair - many women put those beauty pressures on other women. To this day I don't think that magazines geared toward women, and often lead by women, do fair service with all the air brushing etc that goes on. I refuse to buy them.
In a perfect world, there would be a separate, "Why I Dropped" section where someone could go and vent as spoiler free as possible why the didn't stick with a drama. This makes more sense than reading a review only to find out the person watched 2 episodes. There are many dramas I can't get past the first few episodes and sometimes it's just not my cup of tea or I'm not in the mood, but I'd rather not read a review from someone who can give no insight past the very early stages of a drama. It's a waste of time though I don't have any issues with it being in the comment section. I do like now that the reviews list how many episodes the viewer has seen; however, I think it is unfair their # rating brings down the drama's overall rating - again - even if they've only seen 2 hours of a 20 hour drama.
I want to thank all the reviewers. I've done a few and they take time. For someone like me that likes a C-drama now and again, I have no issues with longer reviews as well. 5 minutes versus 55 episodes...y'all can feel my pain if I make a mistake on what to pick.
