Rom Com of fantasy AI world?
I am usually very selective with K-dramas, but I decided to binge this one mainly because of the leads.
Here’s my verdict—purely my personal opinion.
Rom-Com: 💯
This drama is structured as a sweet, lighthearted rom-com, so it’s best not to expect too much narrative depth.
Theme:
The concept is interesting, especially the idea of an AI boyfriend. However, I felt the premise had much more potential than what was actually explored. The AI theme ends up feeling somewhat wasted. That said, I did enjoy the school arc—it was one of the more engaging parts of the story.
Angst / Character Growth:
Naturally, there isn’t much here. As expected from a rom-com, the story relies heavily on familiar tropes—pride and prejudice, misunderstandings, and miscommunication. We also get the classic “ideal male lead” whose heart and attention are devoted entirely to the female lead. While charming in a fantasy sense, it doesn’t feel particularly realistic. Because of this, I didn’t really sense a meaningful growth arc for the characters.
Acting:
Both leads performed well. I’m actually surprised to see some of the harsh comments directed at Jisoo. Personally, I thought she did a solid job here—although I still prefer her performance in Snowdrop.
CP Chemistry:
The chemistry between the main couple could have been stronger. Perhaps because there were so many well-known cameo appearances from other male leads, I found myself distracted. As a result, the main couple’s relationship felt somewhat plot-driven and a bit superficial.
Other Relationships:
I really liked the lady author character—her ending felt particularly bittersweet to me. I also found the dynamic between the editor and the author quite interesting. The female lead’s best friend stood out as well; among the characters, she felt like the one who experienced the most growth.
Final Thoughts:
The drama touches on the idea of AI relationships replacing human ones, and that’s something I find troubling. If we choose to live in an idealized fantasy—whether in life or in love—how do we learn from our mistakes and grow? Real relationships require tolerance, compromise, and acceptance. Without those struggles, it’s hard to build something truly lasting.
If you want something to past time and feel mild fluffiness, this is. fun watch.
