Você é Humano Também? (2018)

Are You Human Too?
the story shows its take on "humans" and "humans emotions".. what really makes a person human? and how does that affect the people and the world around them.
not only a funny and enjoyable but a very touching drama with a very sweet lovable characters and some great deep morals in there too!

1) CGI and scenery:
ok let me write first about the major thing that I was blown away with, watching this from the first scene I really was AMAZED of how good the scenery and CGI effects are!
hands down best CGI in drama I've ever seen, this drama has a lot of editing and photo manipulating as you expect from its title and genre, but coming to this I really was worried because alot of asian production quality in these "fantasies" really ruins it for me bc it always look fake and somewhat cringy.. HOWEVER this one dear god it's so well done and convincing its really shows that they put money and effort creating this.
not only that but directing and the scenery this drama shows is so breathtakingly beautiful.
if I'm going into details on this:
-they dealt with adding technical particles really well.
-the fact that a lot of scenes has the same actor in two roles, and making it like a legit scene without it looking cheesy and cheap.
-they cared about details enough to edit the actors faces in the "throwback" scenes from the past making them look younger.


2) Story:
you know I'm kind of sick of the repetitive and cliche stories some K-dramas has, and boi o boi is this story fuc*king great! it's really refreshing to watch some drama that talks about such different concept like this one.. robots and technology? fu*k yes! and I even liked the fact that it plays it during the current time instead of being typical and make it in future settings.
I also liked about this drama their take on "humans" and "humans emotions".. it really makes you rethink some stuff and how you look into people and see them differently, I also liked that in the story they didn't go overboard with technology so the story is very actually convincing and realistic it makes you think that it actually might be happening somewhere in the world.


3) Cast and Characters:
they did a very good job choosing the cast, starting with the mother oh god I can't explain how much I love their acting. I found myself losing my mind laughing on a scene and sobbing so hard the next one lol..
with Kim won Hae (kang so bong's dad) I really can't ask for more, he's my favorite ahjusshi his acting is so good. and all of the main leads I found myself falling in love with each one of them.
god even the bad guys I really hated their guts even when some of them were my favorite actors before, but each one of them really knows how deliver the right emotions to you the viewer.
-the female lead is strong and bad-ass she knows what she wants and she will protect it with her life not your typical whiny girl who gets protected. the male lead is the sweetest most amazing human being (see what I did there).. doing whatever it takes to protect the ones they love :')


4) Leads are so fuc*ing handsome OK!:
man I really need to brace myself from writing on this point forever lol, but seriously it wasn't hard for me to believe he was a robot since he looked this perfect. I found myself wondering "wait... what if he really is a real life robot!"..
it was my first drama to Nam shin (the lead) but damn his acting and facial expression is very real and sweet! I really could actually NOTICE when he was playing the other character just from his acting alone.. it's crazy!

5) Music and OST:
ok this drama joins my favorite drama ost list, it has a really neat and beautiful songs that will make your eyes fall out from crying too much.


6) Who Should watch This Drama:
if you like stories that aren't typical, or if you're sick of repetitive stories you will really like this one.
it has alot of funny and joyful moments that will make you laugh, you will love all of the beautiful scenery and the well made production!
you will find alot of nerve wracking moments too, also can't forget the sweet and adorable romantic moments that you'll see the characters go through~
and there are couple of plot twists that will make it exciting and aren't really expected. so it's nice to stick there and just watch how the character and events develop all along tell the end.

Definitely recommend watching it even for those who aren't into K-dramas ^^

I love my tin can couple. Nam Shin III has my whole heart
Who knew a robot could have better character development than most kdrama male leads?

Honestly I think this show is amazing in the message it sends. A robot has no greed or thirst for money/power. It’s humans which are the terrible ones. (now to clarify, the show isn't trying to send the message robots are better than humans, its message is for humans to be the best version of themselves)
For e.g. human Nam Shin, he’s all ‘how dare you say a robot is bEttER tHaN Me!!1!!1!!!’ when literally all you have to do is not be an asshole.

Anyway, I can safely say this was a drama I thoroughly enjoyed. The story is so good (ignoring the plot holes), has great acting (someone give Seo Kang Joon an oscar) and a good soundtrack.

Going into it I wasn't sure how I felt about a human x robot relationship but after watching it - I stan. Not saying I'm ready for human-like robots to be put into production to the world, but it's Seo Kang Joon's portrayal of this robot in particular that made me catch feelings. Like he is just so charming, honest, caring and it's his smile - his pure happy smile
(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

The only reason it isn't a 10 is because the plot towards the end was just getting so insufferable. Why is an intelligent robot making such dumb decisions and behaving so naive?? Or our protagonists just leave mega important things lying around. It's bizarre, the villains are stupid but luckily for them - the heroes are even stupider.

But complaints aside, I would definitely recommend this drama.

Personalmente ho amato questo drama, ma la cosa che mi ha toccato di più è la riflessione su cosa ci rende umani, la complessità dei sentimenti e la consapevolezza di essi. Il fatto di “vedere” un androide come un essere umano è una cosa ricorrente, in molti film americani e sono abituata a vedere la pietà o l’amicizia tra umani e esseri in grado di fare ragionamenti, come TARS di Interstellar, Sonny di Io Robot o 7723 di Next Gen (e dagli anni 70 fino ad adesso ci saranno un 100io di esempi). Mi piace il messaggio che quello che ci rende umani sono le nostre azioni, non il fatto che abbiamo ossa, muscoli, cuore, cervello ecc. perché alla fine, l’essere umano è un misto di ricordi ed emozioni, cose che non possiamo in realtà toccare, ma che hanno però un grosso peso. Il cast mi è piaciuto quasi tutto, un po’ meno l’attrice che interpreta Kang So Bong, la fotografia è abbastanza bella, niente di eccezionale ma comunque notevole. Lascio per ultimo la valutazione di Seo Kang Joon, che è stato davvero bravo, anche la postura assunta mentre interpreta Nam Shin III è eccezionale, ed è sconvolgente mentre interpreta Nam Shin, sembra davvero un altro attore!! Nelle espressioni, nella postura, insomma, anche qui, guardare per credere. La colonna sonora è molto bella ??

I don't even know where to begin... This drama was stunning from start to finish, It's the kind of drama where you don't ever want it to end.

Seo Kang Joon's acting was absolutely phenomenal. He played both parts so well that it actually felt like two different people. His entire body language changed between both characters. I was also very impressed with Park Hwan Hee who I've never seen before. I hope she gets a leading role soon because she really deserves it.

Although the storyline is nothing new, this drama really made it fresh. There were also quite a few twists that I did not see coming.

The music was good, but could have been better in my opinion. There was nothing really memorable about any of the songs, but I guess that's also a good thing because they didn't stand out too much and take away from the story.

Rewatch value 10/10 for sure. I would watch it again right now... If my plan to watch list wasn't so long.

Are You Human Too? is a sci-fi rom com. It reminded me a little bit of I'm Not a Robot but it's sort of the reverse. What I thought was great about this was Seo Kang Joon - his acting playing the cold human and the sweet robot in the same show was just great because this role really gave him the opportunity to show a wide range of acting skills and emotions all in one show. You will just fall in love with his robot side in this show, and what is funny of course is the robot is more human than the human. Throughout watching this I couldn't wait to see it on the nights it was out as I was watching it while it aired each episode here. I loved the way his character developed and was able to get emotions and love. At times he reminded me of Data from Star Trek. I also loved the female character Gong Seong Yeon how she loved the robot for who he was so it was not just the outer shell which both guys had the same but their real inner selves. The chemistry between the leads was great. I really loved this show and not just for the romance but I really thought the whole drama and plot were done well and it always kept me wanting to see it. I don't want to give any spoilers but I highly recommend this. A truly great show.

STORY: The story itself is very interesting as it raises your interest to watch until the end. Personally, I had doubts at the beginning as I only decided to add this drama on my watchlist because of Seo Kang Joon who plays the male lead role. Fortunately, the drama surprised me in many ways so that I can only be happy that I convinced myself to give it a try.

ACTING/CAST: As I said before, Seo Kang Joon was the main reason for me choosing this drama and I've not been disappointed at all. He is a very good actor and he pretty much proves it by portraying two characters that are totally different from each other at the same time.

*To be honest, I liked the cast in general. I think all the actors played their part very well and the distribution was very carefully done. Also the Seo Kang Joon and Gong Seung Yeon ship had a lot of chemistry and looked amazing on screen.

MUSIC: I genuinly liked the OSTs of this drama. I think they were perfectly selected according to the storyline and the scenes they were played on. And the fact that Seo Kang Joon sings himself one of the OSTs is a bonus.

REWATCH VALUE: Totally worth rewatching it. If I had the chance to watch it again, I would really love to.

OVERALL: "Are you human too?" is a 100% worth watching drama. It just gives good vibes. It's the kind of drama you would enjoy watching on a spring day at noon when the sun throws its rays through the window and the atmosphere requires a hot tea and a good drama.

cut the non sens already!

everybody say "if you cannot accept a relationship between a robot and a human, don't watch this". but I do accept it, I loved the drama "zettai kareshi (my absolute boyfriend)", and my heart broke at the end. so, no, the robot isn't the problem! the problem is the incredible amount of non sens you come across when watching this! I just watched 4 episodes, so my spoilers won't ruin your drama, let's talk about it.

at the airport when real Shin discovered that she was filming him, he took the camera and smashed it. this is how rich people deal with everything touching their intimacy and safety. it's not like his secretary doesn't know how to deal with threatening people. and yet:

she was a traitor once, and yet they let her come back as a body guard. they could have lied in front of the cameras and just give her an envelope and a fair good bye! but here she is, a traitor inside their home!
she put a camera inside his bedroom, and he didn't notice anything even when as a robot he connected himself to all the connected toys in his room. like really?
they caught her several times in awkward situations and she got away with it by pretending she was on the phone: which rich (and paranoid) guy would accept it without tearing the phone out of her hands to check the truth with his own eyes? as I said, they are rich people and they do that all the time, so why not here?
Shin is in the OR, and the bad guy enters the OR like it's his home. and what did he got? "listen, next time you behave like a bad guy, I will tell papa!" WHAT? you tell papa now! you get the man fired! you get the chairman to know that this man is threatening his grand-child!
how is it believable that rich people behave like coward puppies?

let's talk about this so wonderful FL now! she lies, like all the time. she has no integrity: Shin saved her life and she was still planning to betray him. on one hand she is like "oh! my heart is pounding so much!" and on the other hand she tails him, put cameras in his room and lie to him right before his eyes... I don't even know what to think about her behavior. there is no coherence.

nothing is understandable in this drama. I really cannot put up with more non sens than that, so I just dropped. I agree that robot-human story is something hard to get, but the problem is, that's not the hardest thing to get here.

This drama started off extremely great. I waited for the episodes each week with excitement. However, towards the end It just went towards a unexpected path that I didnt like. The chemistry between the two main leads were just amazing, everything was going great until the real shin woke up. The writer could have gone in so many more directions, rather than turning the real shin into a annoying, shitty brat. Like I wouldve loved to see some development between the robot and the real namsin, like idk them slowly viewing each other as brothers-rather than enemies. I feel like the writer took the simple approach of making the human nam shin as the bad one and last episode changing his character after his mums death. I felt like the real namshin had so much potential, and after all the people he lost, I just wish he found true love or even forgave his mum before she died. Like come one, why? Also, don't get me wrong I loved the robot nam shin. He was absolutely beautiful, but with all this fight for the company and the position of the it- I felt like the relationship between the namshin 3 and so bong was just shadowed by the cycle of fighting for the power and money. This show could've potentially been one of my favourite k dramas, but I'm giving it a 8.5 only because of my love for the first half of the series. I have so much more issues, that i wished they could've solved, unfortunately, it didnt work that way. I can say that I enjoyed the show overall and that I would still recommend it.

Disappointed

Very disappointed about ending.
There is no future with robot.
This drama story line isn’t like how viewers want.
How a robot can pretend to be human being?
And how a human can kiss a robot?
I think she didn’t feel any silicon in her lips.
There should be twist in between human namshin and robot one, as audience wish to end it like human namshin will have so bong. But the ending had with robot namshin. I feel bery disappointed. This show make me bored. I think, i've wasted my Precious time. I'll never gonna recommend this show.
It'll kill your precious time. :)

This was pretty cool. I love the storyline. I confess, I did skip from Episodes 15 to 18 but I will go back and watch it. It had me focused but my patience ran out on this one (lol). Another South Korean who has them dang sparkling beautiful eyes. Seo Kang Joon had to play two characters and HE Did that! I really believed that he was a robot and the original Nam Shin. Joon was successful in playing a robot. It reminded me of Cain and Abel in the Bible. I have to do more SKJ to put him on my Fav actors list. I thank the rest of the cast for doing their part in this KDrama or it wouldn't have worked. The Visuals, the scenery, and the action are very well done.
