Notes : This is a Full Whump List • Since one of the characters is an Android who doesn't show pain even though he gets damage I kept going back & forth on whether to include him in my list. I decided to include him, but then I was stuck on whether to use human terms or robotic terms (ie 'passes out' vs 'powers down'), so you'll see both side by side because I couldn't pick lol • 2 versions available : 36- 30min episodes, or 18- 1hr episodes. On my list I use the 36eps numbers first, & include the 18eps number in parenthesis : 00 (00)

What are your most favorite/recommended dramas? I've honestly only have watched 4 cause never know where to start once I finish one. Thank you!! 💕

Sorry of the late reply ❤

Here’s a “few” dramas that I enjoyed. Some of them fall into more than one category so I’ve written what categories I feel they fall into for each one. I’m going to write the amount of episodes for each show, but I’ll only be counting by (approx.) hour, so if the drama has 32 episodes where each “episode” is half an hour, I’ll write it as 16 episodes. Also some of these have several names, so I’ve just used the one they use on mydramalist. I’ve bolded my favourites.

This list might seem a bit daunting (as it is quite long) but I recommend looking at the specific genres you know you enjoy and just pick one you think seems interesting (there’s no shame in dropping a drama if it doesn’t grip you). If you can’t decide which one to start first, send me a message with the ones you’re trying to choose between and I’ll help you decide ^^

Are you human too?

Year : 2018 | Country : KR | Nb of episodes: 18

My rate: 8/10

Synopsis :

The drama tells of an android called Nam Shin III who must pretend to be the son of a rich family when the real Nam Shin falls into a coma. Nam Shin's mother, Oh Ro Ra, is a genius on brain technology and artificial intelligence (AI) so when her son, the real Nam Shin, is taken away from her at a young age, in her grief she creates an android that looks exactly like her son and has it grow up in the place of Nam Shin. But when Nam Shin, who is a third generation heir to PK group, gets in an accident and is comatose, the android Nam Shin III must learn how to take his place.

Main cast :

Seo Kang Joon as Nam Shin

Gong Seung Yeon as Kang So Bong

Kim Seung Ryung as Oh Ro Ra

Lee Joon Hyuk as Ji Young Hoon

Park Hwan Hee as Seo Ye Na

Yoo Oh Sung as Seo Jong Gil

My thoughts on this drama :

As a huge fan of Science Fiction and robotics, I could not not watch this drama. Even more so when the male lead is Seo Kang Joon. I enjoyed it a lot. The special effects are nicely made and the actors played their part well.

Of course, one should keep in mind that it can only be absurd regarding the romance, considering that robots are, in the end, only machines. But it was pleasant and there were some incredibly awesome shots where you would love to be in the story, just to witness it with your own eyes! I think I'll rewatch it someday...

 A Favorite ?

The Good Stuff:

Nam Shin III   Nam Shin III    Nam Shin III   Nam Shin III    Nam Shin III   Nam Shin III    Nam Shin III   Nam Shin III    Nam Shin III   Nam Shin III    Nam Shin III   Nam Shin III    Nam Shin III   Nam Shin III    Nam Shin III   Nam Shin III....

No seriously, let’s get down to the good parts:

Nam Shin III: This very beta male robot makes the entire show. I don’t think anyone would disagree that the parts that he is in are the highlights of ‘Are You Human Too?’ His character type shows that if you turn the sexy-android-lady trope on it’s head, you get a non problematic and adorable puppy-like lead that’s made for romance and heroics. 

Seo Kang Joon Impresses: Along with Nam Shin III, Seo Kang Joon plays the more sinister human version of himself with perfection. He is able to be so nuanced in his role that he can play the AI, the human, the human pretending to be the AI and the AI pretending to be the human and even the AI pretending to be the human pretending to be the AI!! It’s a flawless performance that will make me follow his career from this point forward.

Complicated Characters: While there were some very straightforward “villains,” there were also more complicated characters, making some of them very interesting to watch. Dr. Oh was one of the grey areas and does redeem herself toward the end which I loved. People aren’t generally 100% bad and 100% good. It takes a while to figure out where everyone stands and what drives them. Only Nam Shin III is perfect while the rest in stark opposition are flawed making the contrast notable.

The Romance: Who wants to watch a hot beta robot bypass his programming to fall in love with a human? That’s a rhetorical question because the answer is obviously EVERYONE! There are so many moments where Nam Shin III and So Bong trust trust one another implicitly or have really intimate emotional moments making for a super lovely, very emotional and heart fluttery love story.

The Bad Stuff:

Just a heads up that I do have a lot of criticisms while at the same time really enjoyed this K-Drama so pls forgive me! ;-)

Playing Fast and Loose With Science: The main problem with this show is two things: Frustrating people that do frustrating things, and it’s total lack of scientific understanding or imagination. Now, I don’t need a k-drama to be scientifically accurate, but with any show that has a premise where we have to use our imaginations, we need to be able to trust the setup.

I need to believe that Dr. Oh is in a world where with financial support from PK group, she can build a flawless AI with learning capabilities, BUT the very company that is paying for the robot to be built’s largest achievement is a clunky self-driving car. And at first I was like, well they didn’t know about the AI, but it turns out that they are storing Nam Shin III’s brains in the basement so they clearly have tons of data they could be using all of these years to create something more interesting? Who would care about this silly car as the main vision of PK group, when they have this amazing robot and tons of data to go with it?

The kill switch doesn’t make sense. Dr. Laura Oh creates this clunky briefcase with a shiny red button to destroy Nam Shin III (she says it will make him explode). They say there’s NO WAY to turn it off. But when it’s pressed he doesn’t explode, AND Laura was able to create a hack but it just stalls the timer? That’s not how science works unless her hack only had to do with the timer but then....why? And also WHY IS THERE A TIMER?...Maybe that’s why he dies but doesn’t explode? Who knows cause I don’t believe the validity of her science anymore anyways at this point.

When Nam Shin III returns alive (yay!!!) he says he now is more human because of the kill switch damage (I assume) and has normal abilities. Ok, what? Why? The kill switch makes him unrecoverable so the human Nam Shin uses his money (that he’s so angry about having) to bring him back, but for some reason the abilities parts were unrecoverable but his tear ducts and walking patterns aren’t affected? Like in real life (if we can pretend for a second), he’d have some abilities while missing other abilities (physical, mental, technological, across the board). Whatever, I’m just glad he didn’t die ok?

Characters who deserved better, villains who win: The writing of ‘Are You Human Too?’ has been mediocre at best by constantly changing the rules while failing to redeem the good(ish) characters while rewarding the bad ones.

Nam Shin would have been better written as a kind person who was initially hurt. Human Nam Shin had the possibility of becoming an interestingly flawed character with all of the support in the world, to a man who only hurts others around him while being supported by lots of caring people. The drama writers didn’t feel like being creative about him and just made him a total ass who in the end, they casually give a hero edit to that he does not deserve.

Dr. Oh’s death is written as merely a sad story line for both Nam Shins but she deserved a much better ending as she contributed so much to the storyline (both good and bad)! They should have redeemed human Nam Shin and she could get her son back and they could have their own happy ending far away (or really anything than randomly killing her off)

Ye Nah finally gets agency and helps bring down the baddies and is just given a one line finale of “oh she never leaves the house these days.” She deserved better and at least one on air conversation and apology from human Nam Shin who did nothing but use her. Anyone noting a sexist theme here?

The 2nd most evil character, Ye Nah’s dad does go to prison but his punishment seems super light and his assistant doesn’t get in trouble at all.

The show forgot that the lead villain was the grandfather!! He does full agency evil, keeps baddies in place at his company and home to cause damage, and is verbally abusive. The last episode barely mentions him (he’s taken care of in a comfy assisted care place), keeps his money,  and he never has to atone for all of the horrible disfunction he has caused in his family.

And that leads me to the last episode where the writers are super lazy and just jump forward in time so they can skip resolving anything. Young Hoon takes over the company (but after all of this why would he want to?) Nam Shin is magically redeemed for no reason at all, and our favorite Tin Can Couple get to have their final tear-filled kiss. I’m glad they got a happy ending but the rushed and poorly written finale had an empty feel to it especially with the quick explanation of “oh we spend lots of money and got him fixed.” ...okay... good kiss though ;-)

In Conclusion: I know my review was tough, but the idea of the show was such an interesting one! I wish the writers had thought a little harder about the motivations of each character and well...a little science would help too? I will say that I’d watch robot Nam Shin scenes for the rest of my life, and was on the edge of my seat wanting to protect him and So Bong--that counts for something! Watch for just the romance plot line and nothing else (unless you really love soapy-style rich people shenanigans).

Rating:

Nam Shin III: 15/10 would watch again

Drama: 6.5/10

[seekingidlewild]

Can someone please explain to me why literally everyone thinks human Nam Shin is going to get together with So Bong when the show seems to be laying the groundwork for a relationship between her and Nam Shin III? The “real” Nam Shin has spent most of the show in a coma so far. Nam Shin III is the male lead that the audience has had time to connect with, and he’s the character who has begun to connect with So Bong. In a show that clearly wants to explore what it means to be human, why introduce an android main character and then sideline him at the end? It doesn’t make sense, and I’ll be super disappointed if that happens.

Also, it’s worth noting that Nam Shin III is, in many ways, the most human character in the show. He is kind, selfless, and loyal, and he’s also capable of feeling emotions like affection or jealousy (despite his claim that he doesn’t have feelings). Also, he makes friends with a frickin’ roomba. The robot literally anthropomorphizes another robot. It’s adorable, and very human. And he’s starting to surprise his “parents” by acting and thinking in ways that are more typical of humans than machines. He’s learning and growing, which makes him the most dynamic character in the show. Am I really supposed to accept that his days as the lead character are numbered?

Episode 6: Nam Shin III being an adorable android puppy.

[ororosmunroe]

Honestly if the story premise of Are You Human Too consisted of the Secretary Ji Young Hoon being in love with the bad boy chaebol Nam Shin (human) and falling in love with the sweet ray of sunshine Nam Shin III (android) while So Bong (a known bi) with her plucky lesbian reporter girlfriend Jo scammed ridiculously wealthy people out of their not hard earned money I would not be mad. At all.
