Title Are You Human? Spoiler
Did anyone else get the feeling that Human Shin and Ji young Hoon were gay?
Cause I was wond erng why they needed to With hotel room scene where Mann Shin tubules his actress or idol girlfriend and tells her to bug off. And he never shows any interest in Ye Na despite her giving up everything for him. The only person he seems to genuinely care for is Young Hoon. For Young Hoons part, his loyalty to Shin isn’t really understandable, even as a friend once Shin starts getting homicidal and really unhinged. It makes more sense if he’s blinded by love up to that point. But even then, he doesn’t leave Shin. He devises a plan to make Shin stop to save him. And some of the things he says to Shin3 by pool about human Shin would be read as romantic if it were said in context of a woman instead. Shin 3 also points out that Young Hoon wants to protect Shin as a friend the way he wants to protect Kang So bong. Of course it’s revealed that So Bong and Shin 3 are actually feeling something more than friends, but Shin 3 isn't well versered in emotion enough to tell the difference until someone tells him. But still- he recognizes some similarity. Maybe it’s me reading more into it, but I’m pretty sure that was subtext written in.
