I've watched it too!^^) I liked the anime, but I've never felt so invested in it that I hated the idea of a live action. Ans I thought it was pretty decent.

Not sure. I'm in the Netherlands. Netflix programming is all over the place, unfortunately. :-(

I agree. Cha Eun Woo is playing someone who is reserved, who is quietly keeping his distance from people, keeping their attention off him, so he can breathe. That is really hard to play without seeming completely dead. He's doing a great job. It makes all those little moments Kyung Suk interacts with Woo Young, and smiles at Mi Rae all the more heartwarming.

It's coming to Netflix! In about a week!! :-)

Kyung Suk has been lonely ever since his mother left, thinking she abandoned her family. Even if that misconception has been cleared up, the feelings of hurt will be buried deep. His father didn't help, being more occupied with his career and having his children behave like model citizens instead of teens. On top of that he lied and is untrustworthy in Kyung Suk's eyes.
It is hard for Kyung Suk to trust people as they usually can't see past his looks and assume all kinds of things about him. He has a sharp eye for bullshit, like with Soo Ah, which makes him keep his distance from people, a kind of self-imposed loneliness. He has been living his life so carefully and quietly. And it's so sad to see that, now he's opening up because of Mi Rae, she can't see deeper inside his heart (yet). She as well only sees his looks for now, and she can't believe he'd be able to look past hers.

Kyung Suk's loneliness is just as much of an issue in this series as Mi Rae's trauma due to bullying and self-image. I think Cha Eun Woo plays that aspect of the character very well. (Continued under "spoiler" in reply.)

Don't be scared! Say what you feel!! :-)

- I liked Yeong Hoon. I would have liked to have known more about him: Why is he so close to Nam Shin? What did he tell Nam Shin III about that?
- What about the aunt and the nephew? I liked the nephew!
- Ye Na deserved more in the end than being shipped off to New York.
- So Bong is a lousy body guard. Why not immediatly insist on rescuing the human NS together? Why stand there debating about time running out... there's no time for that... jeez. She loves him but questions his choice? It would have been so much cooler if she had a bigger part in rescuing the human NS. Also... why leave NSIII alone with that Seo dude in the end.
- And how is it that that Seo dude's henchman wasn't locked up?!
- I'm glad the human NS was redeemed. That's how it should be. I would have liked to have seen it happening sooner: less coma, more scenes together with NSIII, more building of connection and understanding. More of becoming brothers. Oh well.
- It's been confirmed again: Kim Won Hae is the coolest! I'll watch any drama with him in it!!
- I loved nam Shin III. I want one!!!

I liked this show a lot... however... (see reply)... no really... I liked it a lot. 8+

He's great!

The whole point is that the male lead has issues too, just like everyone else on campus. Mi Rae will discover this through her relationship with everyone, and yes with Kyung Suk in particular. They will build each other up, which gives the drama much more depth. People always grow when they can mirror themselves in other people, who are like sun and rain and wind to them. This drama may seem fluffy at first glance, but so far it's actually really well writen. I like it a lot.

Tomita Miu is great!!

Go and buy this movie on Vimeo. It's worth it. Will you watch it again?... you ask. Yes!!! I just did. Hope to see more of these actors and this director.

Human Shin makes this show interesting. NS and NSIII are Yin and Yang. Only one of the two would be boring.

Yes, Nam Shin III is fantastic, and cute, and that smile, and we all wish we could buy one like... right now... SKJ's performance is so good, and I love watching him.
But it's also the story of the human Nam Shin that keeps you watching. His behaviour is the result of being separated from both his parents and surviving a murder attempt. And then he wakes up to a world in which everyone seems to love this robot more than him. Ask yourself how confused he must feel.
I really want to know what happened to his father, how he will deal with NSIII's existence in the end, and if he can retrieve his humanity. I mean, the fact that Ji Young Joon is willing to set aside his personal life for him shows that there's got to be more to him than just being a jerk, right? I would like to see him find his peace.

You only give a few seconds of thought to the human Nam Shin? Wow. That character is what makes this drama so interesting: Seo Kang Joon playing both so convincingly. More spoilery thoughts on that in my reply.
I also don't agree with you about Gong Seung Yeon. I think she's great.

I swore to myself I'd only watch Japanese and Korean, mainly 'cause there's so little time that I don't know when to watch stuff anymore...... and then I started this as well...
Love it! The humour can be a bit corny and it's a bit stagey sometimes, but that gets better as it goes along (I'm at episode 21). I really like the characters (love the two main men! When Shen Wei does his Clark Kent: swoon), I like the "case a week" kind of detective set up, it's fun and relaxing. And I really like the sets, costumes and SFX (there're not brilliant, but where I live we don't have anything homemade with SFX, so: respect).
I swear though, this'll be my last Chinese drama!... What... what did you say? "The Wolf" coming out in December...?! (@_@) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm-5bgeaDHQ

The drama (Entourage) is meh... but that kiss is yay!

Are you all familiar with his part in Entourage? If not, here's a treat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6BveVAz50k

Seo Kang Joon is fantastic in this. But I also like Lee Joon Hyuk's part, especially after his very different role in 'Stranger'.
