I'm so in awe of the fact that he did a "what-if" on his own and pictured himself having all those emotions. If he had been human, he would have felt sad when So Bong left, happy when he was with So Bong, and he certainly would have loved her. This monologue is beautiful.

Ok after some more thought I think it's just jealousy. He doesn't like the fact that NS3 seems to have everything but he doesn't. His ego makes him incapable of accepting a robot to be better than him, so he's trying to display power.

Lol... I guess he doesn't know she's already seen his robot body? And I wonder why he is so bothered by the fact that So Bong likes NS3. I mean, I could understand him feeling neglected and jealous when his mother, grandpa and YH are in good terms with NS3, but So Bong should be a nobody to him. Maybe he really does have a crush on her?? :0

Guys join in tonight on nooblive's live stream!!

I understand where you're coming from, but it's also true that a person's environment, experience and the people around him shape his behaviour. Children learn from imitation, so if they are surrounded by cruel, untrustworthy and unloving people since a young age without proper education on how to be a good person, they shouldn't be taking full blame. It's more of a childhood trauma rather than the person actually being evil. And these people, like NS, still have a chance of being put back on the right track through proper care because they may not be inherently bad.

This is almost like We Got Married where two celebrities pretend to be like couples and do all sorts of intimate acts, but there's no actual story going on. I feel like I'm watching a variety show more than a drama. Simply using romantic scenes and intimacy as fillers to keep the audience watching without actually developing the characters or plot is very lazy writing.

Although I enjoyed this drama, I don't think it deserves an 8.9 rating. I get it has good comedy and romance, but there's nearly no plot. Not every drama needs to have angst, but it still needs to have substance. The subplots are unnecessarily draggy and the characters aren't interesting. Not to mention after the subplot is resolved, there will be nothing but fan service and fillers in the remaining episodes. The chemistry also is lacking. I'm not sure if I'll even be able to finish this drama.

And aside from what I mentioned above, the message of this drama isn't to discuss whether NS3 deserves love or not, but whether the humans around him are humane. A humane human would feel for someone even if they don't have emotions. If a doll that's been with me for 20 years broke, I would feel sad too. And I find So Bong's love for NS3 to be beautiful because it doesn't matter to her whether he loves her back. That's true love and I don't see how she will fall in love with the other NS.

I understand that Nam Shin III is perfect because he's a robot, and Nam Shin is full of flaws because he is human, that's why I think both of them deserve love because both are innocent but are used as tools. They are under similar circumstances but are just reacting differently. Although NS3 doesn't have emotions, he did indeed take care of the mother for 20 years. As a human being, her mother should still be thankful and not kill him. As for So Bong, she feels sorry for NS3 having to deal with terrible humans because she has empathy. As humans, we can have empathy even to non-humans, not to mention NS3 is not a normal non-human being but one who has its own inner value system and can make its own judgement. He was not simply programmed to care about So Bong, he decided to do so on his own. I still regard that as love because love isn't an emotion, it's a value that someone lives for. His intelligence as an android makes him worthy of respect in comparison to a normal daily object.

Even though NS is a jerk, I really pity him. He must've felt very lonely, scared and helpless as a child. His grandfather treats him like a tool, and people around him are constantly waiting to bring him down, that's why he grew up not being able to trust anyone. In his heart he wishes that So Bong could protect him like she protects NS3. On the other hand, NS3 has everything that he doesn't have, winning the hearts of his friends and the grandpa, having a mother, a lover, and excelling at everything. I hope he doesn't do anything bad to NS3 cuz NS3 truly cares about him, but I also understand how bad it would feel in NS's position and why he would act that way. He really needs some love and care.

If that's the case I hate him more, cuz that would mean he still hit her despite liking her. He humiliated her in front of public while acting as if he didn't already know what she did. Thinking back, I'm starting to understand why So Bong hated him that much. Even though she did something wrong first, it doesn't justify how Nam Shin treated her.

I seriously thought everyone knew that... *monkey covering face emoji*

Wait, you mean you "can't stand her" because she's in love with a robot? It would have made more sense if you disliked her because of her personality. She's in love and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I even appreciate how she was all like "I don't expect you to love me back" and "I like you unconditionally". That was like literally the best confession I've heard in a kdrama. It's the love itself that is beautiful and it doesn't matter if it doesn't work out.

That sort of bromance would be like shipping Seo Kang Joon and Seo Kang Joon. That would be the most epic ship in history lol

I'll bet everyone wishes they were reporter JO ;)

I think someone (I forgot who) mentioned that he may wake up and slip into coma again because he is still unstable. I think that's what happened. He did wake up before, but he wasn't always awake so the doctor didn't notice as he doesn't check on him 24/7. He probably woke up a longer time once and managed to come up with a plan with Ye Na while the doctor wasn't there.

It kind of makes sense why he is hostile to everyone. He probably has trust issues and a lot of insecurities growing up on his own. Ever since he woke up, he's been testing the reliability of the people around him, while asking them to help him or protect him. It shows that he needs someone by his side but he doesn't trust anyone.

I'm thirsty for more skinship between our OTP. Moaarr.. I need moaarrr!!!

Surprisingly there was one moment in the episode where I hated the mom less.
