It's so sad that while Nam Shin III's mother obviously cares for him, we all know he's just a replacement for her real son and that is why she seems to not be treating them equally. Of course, when one child isn't well the mother will give more importance to them, but she's clearly ignoring him and when he's like "I'm Shin as well," you can see her taken aback because she'd never thought of the possibility of Shin III saying something that portrays feelings of hurt. Obviously, a human and a robot can't compare, but she should at least care about him enough to not hurt the feelings he's developing despite being a robot, which is something I don't see her doing since she got her human son back. I would honestly hate for Nam Shin III's story to end badly, which is a very high possibility. It seems as though he'll probably work hard and end up making a good name for the human Nam Shin, only to be replaced by him, while also losing someone he genuinely loves (maybe?) without having seen them since he was created (Kang So Bong) or them being input in his memory and perhaps also losing his mother who might not need him in her life anymore since she'd have her real son back (which would honestly be very shallow of her character).
It makes me so sad because Nam Shin III is sooo pure and innocent! I hope they make it work somehow because I don't want him to just end up disappearing or being taken apart in the end like he's "served his purpose" and isn't needed anymore! :c
(ALSO, how cute was he when he asks Young Hoon if human Nam Shin would like him when he wakes up? AND WHEN HE SEES OTHER MACHINES/ROBOTS. OML HE'S SUCH A SWEETHEART. Aww. <3)
Tbh, I'm not one to re-watch anything completely. I'll remember my favorite parts, and I'll just jump to them whenever I feel like I want to watch it. That way, if the whole episode is my favorite, I will watch it, but if the next one has certain parts that I liked more, I'll just watch those and be satisfied. :)
I saw your post on the feeds tab a few days ago (or maybe a week ago? I'm not sure.) and I was waiting for the article to be published. Even started thinking that you may have scraped it because I didn't see it up. :)
I'm so in love with Come and Hug Me, and it's been so long since any TV show (drama, in this case) has made me like this... waiting for the next episode anxiously and eagerly. The show has made me fall more in love with Asian TV, since I started watching dramas this year. I wonder how many more gems I have yet to find! :D
Just wanted to say that you've done a great job at this article and highlighted all the good points about the drama without giving any spoilers! :)
This review put my thoughts into words! I will definitely write a review when the drama is over, but you've completely managed to say everything I had to say about the show so far (ep. 12). Can't wait till next week either! So torturous, isn't it?
This drama reminds me of the movie In Time, like a bunch of people have already mentioned. Therefore I'm super excited to watch this! :D Plus, LSK is so cute! :)
