I WATCHED THIS DRAMA 3 TIMES, WHILE I WAS WAITING FOR THE NEW EPISODES, I WAS LITERALLY SICK OF WAITING!
NOW LET'S GO!!
Here's a big review
->INTRODUCTION:
Keep this in mind while watching the drama:
"Humans can use each other and throw each other away in ways that are inhumane. That’s why people experience loneliness even in a crowd. Among these people, Namshin III is designed to listen to people until the end, help the weak, and comfort the crying.
He is a very humane robot living among inhumane people, that raises the question of what it means to be human. We hope that people can have the courage to say to people who betray the ideals of humanity, ‘Are you human, too?'". -The drama is about that.
"Are you human, too?" will make you reflect on society and see how unpleasant it can be. It is a drama where you actually have to use your brain and think why some characters are the way they are.
->STORY: 10/10
I find the drama fast. It's not boring, and it is very enjoyable in every moment.
The story is very original and it is a new experience for us to live and feel. But hey, the story is not just what I said in the "introduction", it focused a love relationship between a human and a robot. What I find super interesting and yet, sweet. Because of this, you will always feel worried about the end, starting from the first episode. Also, the drama is SUPER unpredictable, believe me...you are going to feel shocked a lot of times.
To be honest I don't understand why people say that this is similar to "I'm not a robot". The only thing they have in common is the fact that both talk about robots...
-> CAST: 10/10
Oh yeaahh....prepare yourself to fall in love completely with a robot, like a crazy person (me) x)
Seo Kang Jun is the most hot, sexy, lovely and cute robot of all time and the way he smiled...killed me...
I seriously need this robot. PLEASE GIVE ME AN NAM SHIN3!!!!
Seo Kang Jun played 3 different characters: a human that is greedy, an innocent robot and a robot imitating the human; acting was FUKING AMAZING in every way. His facial expressions never failed. I was stunned.
Now...the female lead had a LOT of hate. I saw such bad comments about her, like wishing her to die...
I am going to be honest.... I absolutely loved her! You can hate everything about her in the beginning, but then you're going to regret that.
She's a real female lead! She had a slow, but visible development.
Not every (female) lead has to be hard-working, determined, cute or innocent. So Bong really represents humans in general and she broke those barriers while bringing it to reality.
Others characters...most of them are annoying and you are going to hate them so much, but remember, sometimes we need these characters in order to have a “complete” and “real” drama and every single character had a purpose. As I said before, this reveals how unpleasant society can be. So they are pretty realistic.
-> THE CHEMESTRY
Having a human and a robot in a love relationship is going to make you feel confused and worried, because it is something "wrong", but at the same time it is so damn sweet. Their chemistry was ridiculously adorable. I screamed so many times and blushed in their scenes. Those shot me right through the heart >///<.
Another thing I find absolutely beautiful, is the fact that both leads have brown eyes. ????
But yeah, I was in love with this couple <3
#BrownEyedCouple
-> OST: 10/10
So far...the drama has the best ost of the year and of all time. Magnific music and so well placed. Also, very rememberable.
-> CINEMATOGRAPHY
Really well done! I liked the camera work so much. I know they spent a lot of money here, but they really did a good job. The scenario is wonderful! Beautiful landscapes.
Even the graphics used in the robot were so cool.
-> THE END
I loved the end, I do admit was a bit rushed, but was lovely.
-> LITTLE NEGATIVE NOTES
1) Maybe show more about Bo Song? We really don't know much about her past life.
2) Make Bo Song strong (physical) she's a bodyguard, right? How about some action scenes with her?
-> WOULD I RECOMMEND IT?
Absolutely! I would even say that it is a MUST-WATCH.
Please don't give up on the first couple of episodes because of the female lead -__- and at least try to be in her position...
Fact: Wherever Seo Kang Jun is, it is worth watching!
I also find the drama very addictive.
->OVERALL: 10/10
I saw the trailer and read every news about the drama and cast, and everything I was expecting, was in the drama. I loved how unpredictable and original it was. I'm really happy that it didn't disappoint me <3.
One of my favourites!!
SO YEAH, GET READY TO FALL IN LOVE WITH A ROBOT

Story: This story was so well developed, In every aspect, the romance thing, the sci-fi thing, everything. I must say That is a mix of emotions from the start till the every last second, it will make ou cry af, it will make you smile, it will make your heart skip a beat and it will make so angry at some characters, and that's what makes a good drama, and so "Are you human too?" did it well.
Cast/acting: The cast, ooooh que cast,I must say that it was what made me start this drama, I've seen a drama with both main characters here and loved them, but here the slayed! not only them, but every actor here, They can change your emotions accordingly with the story, everyone was on point!
Music/OST: I really loved every ost released in this drama, and all osts here were so fitting for the moment when they were playing!
It deserves a rewatch, I really don't like to rewatch tho, but this drama deserves all love

The chemistry between the main leads was way off, at about the half of the series I thought maybe its time to let it go but eventually I finished it, it took me two months.

Are You Human is such a nail-biting, unpredictable journey which plays philosophically with the meaning of what it means to be human, with the writer's intent being that robots could be more human than people.This show embraced so many sides of humans using the perfectly good and humanistic robot Nam Shin 3 and juxtaposing him with the despicably portrayed human Nam Shin, who endured emotional suffering which scarred his sense of being a decent human. In the developmental stage of AI, it shows how a robot can carry many virtuous qualities and be a benefit to mankind while even surpassing its human counterpart. It shows how being human isn't limited to being externally biologically human, but being intrinsically humanistic as Nam Shin 3 was programmed to be and develop into. (Although my personal philosophy is that human beings are complex and no matter how advanced technology is, it can never replicate the central part of being human--having and feeling emotions and struggling to achieve their goals. The human Nam Shin portrays this perfectly.)
What I loved is how this message is so powerful with the development of the characters in order to show human growth. The character growth here is so well done and it is impressive in midst of all the action, drama and suspense, through the kind robot who acts as a model of humanity and restores goodness in the lives of others. Especially So Bong. She went under phenomenal character development as I went from hating her immoral actions in the beginning to loving her passionate and stubborn character at the end. Gong Seung Yeon is so beautiful and talented, it was amazing how smoothly her character transitioned from the beginning to the end. She came so far in her character development that old Kang So Bong felt like years ago. I almost wanted to drop the drama because I hated her in the beginning, but boy I'm so glad I continued because it got so much better! Human Nam Shin was someone everyone wanted him to be hit by a truck with and Ye Na was an annoying obsessive girl over human Nam Shin--both which transformed by the end.
The superb character development couldn't have been without the phenomenal acting. I was already a fangirl of Seo Kang Joon since the first drama (and the only one of his before I had watched this one) of his I had watched which was Cheese in the Trap and it was the first time I had experienced Second Lead Syndrome LOL! But his acting in this drama intensified my already flourishing love for him as an actor. The stark contrast between the evil jerk human Nam Shin and the soft and cute boyish Nam Shin 3 was amazing. I could instantly tell which one was which just by the expressions.The fact that I could feel such contrasting emotions for the same actor playing the same role just shows how talented Seo Kang Joon is. And those visuals...I swear he looks like a walking robot doll! (pun intended) I also fell in love with how charming Young Hoon is always keeping his cool with his expressions, with an attractive sense of responsibility, dedication and strong morals throughout the entire show. If Nam Shin 3 is already taken..please give me Young Hoon! The one thing I found lacking was the writing of the antagonist. Seo Jong Gil, was your typical antagonist though and was nothing special, but somehow the show still had such a purpose even without it. The grandfather, however, was fun to watch!
Apart from the main antagonist, everyone became more human, empathetic, and righteous at their own pace, all because of Nam Shin 3. We get to see what inherent evil vs neglect/abuse induced evil, and the good, showing all the shades of humanity as a result. Every character has their own drive and motivation except for Nam Shin 3 and it was interesting to see everything interplayed around him from company politics, family drama, and the romance. The CGI here is notable as well and it is so well done!
The plot was unpredictable for me at every turn, and I was never disappointed. Although there are some plotholes with the fact that they didn't delve deep into the tech parts and his relationship with Kang So Bong, I'm willing to overlook it because at the end, it is part of the fantasy/supernatural genre. I wish they prolonged this drama partly because they wrapped things up quite quickly and it did feel quite rushed, but mostly because I am itching for more. The romance portion was well done and it wasn't too overpowering and cheesy. The drama has the right amount of balance between all the political/philosophical/suspense/drama/romance aspects and I never felt as though there was too much of one aspect. To be honest, it wasn't very romantic until the end and I found the ending realistic but satisfying. Though some people get iffy about a romance between a human and a real robot (not something like "I am not a robot"), it really isn't that bad. It is great that the relationship develops on the basis of strong friendship and fierce loyalty, and the robot is made to be so advanced and develops to become very human-like that at times I forgot Nam Shin 3 was just a machine. (The characters also toy around with this fact a lot, leading to a lot of philosophical questioning).
I loved the OSTs, and the music fit perfectly with the premise of this show. It felt magical and had a kind of modern/aesthetic feel with my favourite song from the drama, "The Longing Dance" while at other parts it had the kind of nonchalant but pleasant drama music that was always there but didn't get annoying.
Overall, I personally love this drama despite its flaws. I had such a good time with this show because I wasn't sure what to expect from it and didn't have many expectations. It has such a high rewatch value for me. I really recommend that you check it out!!

Story
A sci fi, fantasy, romance, and thriller drama. It is a roller-coaster mood. The tempo of the drama is fast. The story also has a lot of plot twists. And I love it. What makes this drama even better is that it almost doesn't have any particular plot-holes. The romance story was attached to it, and most people will agree that it is part of the story.
Acting/Cast
Seo Kang Joon arguably has the hardest roles in K-drama ever. Not only he acted as Human and Robot, he also needed to act as robot pretending to be a human, human pretending to be himself, human pretending to be a robot, which are really hard. He has done a fantastic job. Hats off for him!
Gong Seung Yeon on the other hand, played as Kang So Bong. She also did a great job. Her acting to show Kang So Bong's reaction and emotion is totally amazing. I'm becoming her fan. Her part is also hard. She needs to build chemistry and also she also needs to build hatred feeling to the same person. Everytimes she cried, I also cried. I feel like I'm in love in her and Kang So Bong.
Other casts were doing a great job as well.
The dynamics of relationship between Nam Shin 3 and Kang So Bong is also the best. Kang So Bong has the most complex emotion, followed by Nam Shin (people will argue that it is otherwise, I would still stand on my opinion). Kang So Bong had felt hate, disgust, pity, joy, sadness, anger, and love to Nam Shin 3. I love their romance scenes.
Music
The music were great, but their osts wouldn't beat the likes of Goblin and WYWS. Some of them were misplaced. But they are still good as standalones.
Rewatch Values
I would love to rewatch it again and again and again. I hope there will be a second season. Painfully it won't happen

? The story line overall is good. Some small plot holes, and some of the romance is a bit draggy...
The plot will keep you hooked, and at the end of every episode there's always a cliff hanger
? The cast is perfect for each other. The main couple looks so good with each other, I loved how Shin, Shin mum and So Bong has light brown eyes, it's so pretty! xd. The acting is overall good, Gong Seung Yeon crying scenes has improved a lot, but some times she doesn't express sadness that well... Kudos to Kang Joon, his acting is spot on, he manages to convey feelings of two different characters well!
? Music is good, I cry every time "Love" and "Is it love" plays. Their whole OST is awesome! Always brings out the perfect vibe to suit each scene. One of my favorite Kdrama OST!
? I would definitely re watch!! I hope to see Seung Yeon and Kang joon together in another drama or real life! XD
This is definitely one of my favorite K drama in 2018, I hope this drama wins many rewards!!!

Even before I started to watch the drama I knew that it would include the romance between human and AI robot, so I knew what I was getting myself into and honestly, I don't regret my decision in starting this drama at all.
A quick advice for those who want to watch the drama but aren't sure is = Don't start this drama if u can't accept fantasy relationships such as vampire/human, werewolf/human, alien/human, witch/human and other fantasy creatures. If you don't consider these relationship as real, then I think it's your turn to step back and find a different drama, because you might get bored or annoyed with this one.
Okay, back to the story which I am starting with.
I try to be always objective and that's what I will do here as well. The plot is NOT perfect and has plotholes but I don't think it's such a big issue to stop watching it. Even tho I am big fan of this project, I can say what I liked and disliked about the show and it's very simple. This show is not only abour romance but mostly about action and economical issues around the company. I am a person which does not like such talks so I found them boring and I personally think that they could cut on some issues which were not really needed. That's the biggest problem I had with the show but overall it was not lacking anything for me. I applaud the scriptwriter for keeping us on our toes with the episodes and oh, those cliffhangers almost ruined us which I loved even more! I was excited for Mondays and Tuesdays to come.
Romance is very sweet and innocent but also in some point heartbreaking? But in a very good way. I cried, laughed and screamed and I don't do such things with other dramas much.
At first I started even a topic how the drama should end and my first idea was that human Nam Shin would get into accident and get brain death and AI Nam Shin will replace him. The idea came not because I hated the fact of a robot being with a human, no, not at all. I just for a moment thought like Nam Shin III a bit.
''I want to feel like a human, I want to feel pain and cry like a human'' this is exactly what I thought and I was right. NS III wanted in later episodes all this and u can say it's a bit of a greed? But in a good way. That's why my theory was like that. But then later I realized along with NSIII that you HAVE TO accept who you are even tho you are a robot. He can't change who he is but it doesn't mean that he can't feel and love in his very own unique way.
ACTING:
Okay, I wanna know who said that Seo Kang Joon can't act! Like, I followed his path from his debut till now and I fell in love with him from the first drama he had and was mesmerized by his way of acting. It's not only pretty face but he has a real talent. U can definetly see the difference between human NS and AI NS which not anyone can do. I also knew the female lead before so I knew what to expet and I got it! Very happy that they got together in this drama ~
MUSIC:
Okay, I would give this a full 10/10 but I simply can't because of the VIXX. I am their fan but not with this OST as it just did not fit right with this drama for me, but I can forget about it if I listen to ''Longing dance'' which is my absolute favourite OST and whenever I hear it I get goosebumps and picture NS III walking baddass to me to save me.
REWATCH VALUE:
Yesterday I finished the drama but today I'm starting to watch it with my mom so...it's a rewatch for me? I can't get enough of it and just wanna see the masterpiece once again ~

A beautiful love story,trust and understanding between a robot (Namshin3 ) and human (Kang so bong ).
1st episode was a bit slow as it just showing the introduction of each character and their work,status and relationship
But from the second epsiode ,the way story was started with the entrance of robot and then when actual Namshin and robot Namshin come in front of each other and those expressions looking to each other was just perfect . Starting to end all the episodes were amazing and viewers curiosity increase with each episode why director is in hurry to complete the drama ,we really don't have problem to see more two episode even we happy to connect with the drama two more days .It's a incomplete ending ,something is missing.
In the last part I like her mother dreaming about both them playing in front of her ,I really want such ending . They should show us ,How they got robot from ocean at the last scene , how he got tears in his eyes ,kang so bong match up with human shin after meet with robot shin .What about Ye ha na ...She always been devotee to shin ,so why Shin left her ..Atleast he can make her friend....What it is the secret behind his father's death ,what is human Son's grandfather is hidding from shin about his father's death . Ending of criminal story also seen incomplete what he had done with his father's not expose . Then what happened to his grand father ,I am actually not understand he is good person or bad person..They should show Shin's aunt and his son story at last part. don't know . Even I don't understand why there is need to kill his mother.But anyways it was a Happy ending with incomplete ending.
Some dialogues in this drama ,I like the most are 1 .It is rule to hug someone who is crying. 2. Hold the hand and blink the eye and saying Khojima.
3. when robot shin said to her tha she become his top priority and background music start
4.That woman who see me as me...I love this dialogue and the way he grab her hand and those expressions and then background music start.amazing.
5. the way he grab her hand from human shin and told her that I have to protect you from him ,this you called jealously right .
My favourite scenes are 1.when Mr Jin giving him (robot)training how to behave as a human shin 2.when he closed her eye and saying chakma and the way he on all the lights.
3 .The way he stop the car which system get hacked.
4.the way he save her from the man and stop the car.
5. When kang so bong's father comes to know that he is robot the way he show his reaction that were amazing.
6.i like the conversation between Kang so bong 's father and her reporter friend they were so funny and their dialogues too ,such scenes also help a lot to make drama interesting.
About acting each and every member dis a great job too good ,love their acting especially Namshin this acting totally justified and his acting really appear two different but My factor character Robot shin and his smile whenever he look his close ones. Too cute and too innocent ...
Mr. Ji also looking handsome and his acting and the way he support shin ,I like this true character .He totally justified his role amazing too good.
At last Happy ending but not satisfied .Something is missing.
