Team Dramabeans: What we’re watching
by DB Staff
I’m Not a Robot: I found this charming and funny. It took a little time to settle into its groove, and at first I worried it might be too cheesy or overly silly… but then the robot stuff kicked in and I loved the surreal comedic feel of the scientists and the hero’s “allergy.” This world is not our world, but an over-the-top, slightly absurdist one that made me think of a cute anime series. The comedy is more obvious than witty, but I find the situations pretty amusing, and the characters are appealing. Please don’t suck!
I’m Not a Robot: Cute! The setup is wacky, but the acting is strong and sucks me into the world and the nutty situations, making me care about the connection between our millionaire recluse and his new not-a-robot friend. The second he held a birthday party for his robot vacuum in the first few minutes of the show, I was on his side. Somebody love this boy!
http://www.dramabeans.com/2017/12/team-dramabeans-what-were-watching-81/
edit: I'm reading the comments about our drama drama in "what we're watching" and I'm soooooo happy so far!! many are happily surprised to love the drama and Yoo Seung Ho in rom-com wanting him to do more rom-com roles and they are loving his chemistery with Choi Soo Bin too!!
here are some of the comments I read so far!!
Spoiler3 ravennightstar
I’m Not a Robot- So cute! Yoo Seung-ho is charming and lovable as expected. So happy to see him in a rom-com finally! Cha Soo-bin is brilliant as both the robot and herself. I love their bickering relationship already…so I hope it continues for a few more episodes before they eventually fall in love. Although, I don’t know how he’s going to get over the fact that she’s a human and not a robot as he currently believes. Question- how is he able to touch her? What happened to his allergic reactions when he’s in contact with a human?

I really like INAR, maybe it got low ratings because MBC had no drama on Wednesday for so many weeks before but it's cute and funny, and so nice to see Yoo Seung Ho in this kind of role after so many angsty roles.
I know he's called melo king but here I think his comedy scenes are actually better than his angsty ones, he was so cute with his doctor and his butler. Also he really has great chemistry with Chae Soo Bin, they match so well and her acting is good, I kept looking forward to their scenes. I just hope that people don't blame her for the low ratings, like someone pointed out Yeon Woojin also did 3 dramas this year but no ones going around saying they find him off putting or that people are put off by him.

I love ANAR too I enjoyed the first 2 episodes, it's cute and refreshing specially when there's NO judges, detectives, prosecutors, corupted organizations or revenge, it gives Shopping King Vibes, it's an easy watch, YSH and EKJ they both chose different characters than what they usually do, and they're doing well.
I expected the low ratings since the plot is a bit childish but in a good way, it's sad though, Black Knight episode 2 has a rise in ratings while ANAR has dropped. still there's hope this week.

I'm Not a Robot: Okay, I hated the fact that Yoo Seung-ho turns into a hulk when he's touched, and the business stuff is boring, but otherwise this show is everything I wanted it to be. I'm just looking forward to Chae Soo-bin being adorable.

I Am Not A Robot - I have too many questions on that "allergy" but for now I'll focus on how cute YSH and CSB are. Cute, cute, cute! I'm totally a sucker for the cold, human-hater falling for the girl that gets on his toes. Totally my catnip.

I really like the off kilter absurdist vibes of I'm Not a Robot. It also has great production values. YSH and CSB are so winning together, and I love YSH as a rom com hero so.much, omg. Min-kyu's allergy being psychosomatic does stretch credibility but I can go with it. The only thing I didn't like was Uhm Ki Joon's character (who builds a robot in the likeness of their ex and programs it to call him master and say she loves him? so creepy) and focus on the female lead's (and robot's) chest. Please stop the boob jokes now writer-nim. They're not funny.

In order of best to worst at this time:
1) I am not a robot: It's going with a breezy flow. They're making it fun and somewhat funny. Actors seem to be in the zone. If they keep up the hijinks and don't slow it down for too much, this will be a nice watch. CSB is fairly adorable with a character with some spirit and a sense of her own worth.

I'm Not a Robot: it's embarrassing how into it I am already, but I love both main characters and the premise is my flavor of ridiculous. in hands of a better writer (BTLIOF ruined me) the show would address the sexist societal roles female robots personify, but I'm not expecting that here.20 Giegie
I Am Not A Robot-Love it.

Did not expect to love I'm Not A Robot, You Seung-ho should be in more rom-coms, and I also love Chae Soo-bin here. I thought I'd be sick of seeing her as I thought her character here seems the same in SD but no she proved me wrong.

IANAR- this show is so cute and funny. I found myself actually laughing out loud. After the premier episodes I immediately wanted more so it's kinda sad that ratings are so low in S.Korea.
and me as ilchul in there!!
Spoiler28 ilchul
I'm Not a Robot: I couldn't be happier with Yoo Seung Ho taking this drama and Min Kyu's role!! he's soooooo cute and hillarious with his serious dumbness around the robot LOL but we can still see his pain and loneliness through his jerk act he's keeping to push people away from him!! and he's soooooooo handsome and hot too!! that's full package there!! swoooooon
“I Am Not A Robot” Shares How “Dateable” Each Of The 3 Main Characters Is
MBC’s “I Am Not a Robot” has revealed the “dating abilities” of the drama’s main characters. The dating ability is determined based on how much dating experience each character has, as well as the character’s personality, likeliness to date, and more.1. Kim Min Gyu (Yoo Seung Ho)
Kim Min Kyu is a man who has it all including looks and money, but he is used to being by himself as he is allergic to human contact. Although he lacks basic human relationships, let alone a girlfriend, he shows particular interest in dating. In the last episodes, he was seen trying to kiss a cushion while watching a romantic movie and complaining about his circumstances to his doctor (played by Uhm Hyo Sup).
Due to his personality that’s far from gentle, Kim Min Kyu’s dating ability was rated one star, the lowest among the three characters.
2. Jo Ji Ah (Chae Soo Bin)
Chae Soo Bin plays the dual role of Jo Ji Ah and humanoid robot Ah Ji 3 in the drama. An enthusiastic young businesswoman, Jo Ji Ah grabs others’ attention with her bright personality and relatable character. Jo Ji Ah not only has a warm heart and puts other before her, but also knows how to speak up when she feels that something is wrong.
As a woman who is ready to love and be loved, Jo Ji Ah scored five stars for her dating ability.
3. Hong Baek Gyun (Uhm Ki Joon)
SpoilerHong Baek Gyun is a robotics genius who knows everything about robots. When it comes to dating, however, he has a lot to learn. Hong Baek Gyun has been single since he broke up with his ex-girlfriend Jo Ji Ah. Although he has an excellent job and seems to lack nothing, Hong Baek Gyun appears to be still not over Jo Ji Ah as he becomes jealous of Kim Min Kyu.
Hong Baek Gyun’s dating ability was rated two stars due to his inability to relate to others despite his profound knowledge about robots.
The production staff of “I Am Not a Robot” shared, “The three characters in the drama have different dating styles as well as dating abilities. Guessing and comparing their dating styles before the romance actually begins will add fun to the drama.” They also asked the viewers to look forward to the romance between the three very different characters.
“I Am Not a Robot” is a romantic comedy telling the story of a man who is allergic to humans and a woman who pretends to be a robot. The drama airs every Wednesday and Thursday at 10:00 p.m. KST.

@sakura2016 chingu, the scene where she had sleepless night and she sits up touching her heart shape light and said "are you there?"
I'm wondering who does she referring to?
hmmm the one who needs her?!! the one who understand her and accept her as she is?!! her second half?!! Min Kyu?!!
9 hours ago, stl said:Hello everyone!
I just wanted to ask you, don't know if it's already been addressed, but :
Does he have other allergies other than to physical human contact? Because he could have kept a pet as a companion if he's not allergic to it.
We've seen that he takes many pills at once, maybe it's for his other allergies?
Hi chingu!!
no from what we know he only have human allergy but he can't keep a pet since it will need alot of care and so he'll need to have more human contact while taking care of it I believe so keeping robots, fishes and vaccum cleaners is easier for him!!

I am hoping the storyline flows well and does not become too predictable!
yeah

4 Things We Loved And 3 Things We Hated About The “I Am Not A Robot” Premiere
MBC’s newest drama, “I Am Not a Robot,” has aired its first week! With Yoo Seung Ho and Chae Soo Binheading the cast of this Wednesday-Thursday drama, we knew it wouldn’t be one to miss. Want to know what we loved and hated from the first week of “I Am Not a Robot”? Read on to find out!
Warning: spoilers for Episodes 1 and 2 ahead.
1. Loved: Min Kyu’s human interactions
“I Am Not a Robot” is Yoo Seung Ho’s romantic comedy debut, and he is absolutely killing it as Kim Min Kyu, a man who is allergic to humans. Min Kyu’s allergy to other people is legitimate, but that doesn’t make him any less of a diva as he keeps others at bay with gloves, batons, and all kinds of barriers — and it’s hilarious to watch Yoo Seung Ho play a character that is so over-the-top extra.
Spoiler2. Hated: too little set-up
We know what happens when Min Kyu touches another person, because he was kind enough to demonstrate this for us at the very beginning of the drama. Spoiler: even with a rash all over his body, Yoo Seung Ho is still handsome.
SpoilerStill handsome, but also a bit terrifying.
But then the drama sets a very fast pace, doing itself a bit of a disservice by not spending enough time emphasizing Min Kyu’s ailment from the outset. As a result, it becomes easy to forget about his human allergy when we watch him interact with Jo Ji Ah (Chae Soo Bin), and this scene in which a man with an allergy to humans is able to safely touch another human (although unbeknownst to him) doesn’t feel like nearly as big a deal as it should:
SpoilerBut a fast-paced drama is better than one that moves too slowly, so hopefully this means that “I Am Not a Robot” will maintain high energy in weeks to come.
3. Loved: Min Kyu’s hobbies
There may be downsides to not being able to spend time with other people, but Min Kyu seems to have a grand enough time on his own. He’s developed quite a few hobbies, ranging from the impressive to the hilarious, and we loved seeing some snapshots of his life of solitude. His favorite pastimes include building dope card houses:
SpoilerPlaying games:
SpoilerAnd insisting that he’s happy alone.
Throwing birthday parties for his robot vacuum cleaner:
SpoilerWho needs human interaction, anyway?
And making out with pillows:
SpoilerBetter than girls for sure… right?
4. Hated: weird power dynamics
As the drama progresses, the relationship between Min Kyu and Ji Ah will inevitably undergo some major changes. But until then, it’s a little uncomfortable watching Ji Ah (and the robot Aji 3, for that matter) acting so subservient to the men around her — especially knowing that this strange dynamic between her and Min Kyu is eventually going to give way to love.
SpoilerWe know she’s supposed to be a robot, but that doesn’t make it any less weird. Especially with lines like this:
SpoilerAlso uncomfortable is Min Kyu’s budding affinity for Ji Ah when he realizes that she can be a sort of personal servant to him and perform household chores.
SpoilerSomething’s got to give before these two start falling for each other, so I’m eagerly awaiting the part where Min Kyu learns his lesson about treating others — even robots, and especially girls pretending to be robots – with more respect.
5. Loved: Ji Ah’s “genius”
Ji Ah may not be equipped with the artificial intelligence of a robot like Aji 3, but she manages to impress Min Kyu with her ingenuity nonetheless, finding the shortcut solutions to every problem he throws her way.
SpoilerIt’s not only hilarious to see Ji Ah break boxes with her fist and crack eggs on her head, but also too funny to watch the supposedly brilliant Min Kyu be duped into thinking her crude solutions are as smart as those a robot would come up with.
Spoiler6. Hated: Ji Ah’s immaturity
As far as female K-drama characters go, Ji Ah is pretty badass in a lot of ways.
SpoilerBut I’m still not sure if I truly like her yet, largely because of the immaturity that comes out in her relationship with her brother, who attempts to instill a sense of responsibility in her.
SpoilerRather than feeling that Ji Ah is misunderstood and not taken seriously, I can’t help but find her a bit whiney.
SpoilerI want to be able to empathize with her, but I’m having a hard time when she feels mistreated by her brother just because he wants her to stop borrowing money from the family to fund rather useless business ventures and inventions that aren’t likely to turn a profit.
SpoilerAlthough to be honest, I would probably buy one of these.
Ji Ah’s entrepreneurial spirit is admirable, but she could stand to be more mature in the choices she makes, or at least stop acting like her brother is the bad guy here.
7. Loved: the unique plot
A man with an allergy to humans, a girl pretending to be a robot, and a bunch of unanswered questions: why does Min Kyu have this allergy? Why is Ji Ah the only human he can touch without getting a reaction — but only when he thinks she’s a robot? And how long can they live together before he finds out that she’s not actually the robot Aji 3?
SpoilerWith such a unique plot and quirky characters, “I Am Not a Robot” has all the ingredients of a great K-drama. And after a strong first week, we’re ready to see what it has in store for us!
So if you haven’t already, be sure to catch the first two episodes on Rakuten Viki:
Hey Soompiers, what were your favorite and least favorite parts of the “I Am Not a Robot” premiere? Let us know in the comments!

@Berou The Beauty and The Beast part!! awwww I totally agree with you, Min Kyu may be smart in business but he's still a child in real, comman life interactions, a swoony cute one for that
!! and I never thought about it but you're right, aside from his allergy forcing him to stay away from people to not have contact with them he must've hid it because protecting himself from being seen as a monster they'll fear and run away from just like the doctors did seeing his symptoms!! that's sad!! that's why he was telling (Aji 3 I guess) in the preview that he'll be happy if she recognised him no matter how much his appearance may change?!!! owwwww
well he'll get his wish for her to be a humain
but he'll be heartbroken and feel betrayed by her and everyone who helped her to keep her lie before seeing the bright side of the truth that's for sure!!
I'll be waiting for the rest of your thoughts!!

I finaly watched with subs - who cares that is is 2.27 am at my place.
Who needs sleep...
So I start to get a picture.
He didn´t saw the Girl from next Episode for 15 years - first love at young age. Got it. As I guessed his so called allergy must be realated to the death of the parents. And somehow maybe to his former friend... maybe. I wonder if it is the young Ceo - his friend and rival - or just the father who did something bad so MK hates him and acts so angry ur hurted.
It is intereseting that not even young CEO knows about AJi 3. So I somehow wish he is not that evil - and can maybe really be a friend later.
hhhhhh true!! who needs sleep?!!
I think the father was the only one behind the death of Min Kyu's parents and Min Kyu was obviously deeply mad and hurt seeing the father at his parents' grave so maybe he suspect it!! and aside from that he doesn't trust both the father and his former friend and there must be a reason behind it as well!! maybre because he's aware of their wish and plans to get rid of him (his authority over the company) and take over the company?!!
yeah, I was surprised to know that he wasn't aware of Aji's existance still he knew there was something was hiden behind that seelling contract since he obviously wasn't pleased with Min Kyu barging in the meeting nor with his questions and doesn't like the fact that he's of no real authority against Min Kyu!! (character discripton/spoiler?) he's actually in love with Min Kyu's 1st love Ye Ri El and have inferiority complex to Min Kyu and he's to be the reason Min Kyu will suffer later on so don't know how much of a friend he can become but I surely not like hiom right now nor will I in the given future!!
QuoteSandwich was for sure the Password Ji Ans Ex used to save his private stuff. And the dress is related to a memory too - yes this Guy loves Ji An. But I can see why she left him like that. Maybe as a Genius he had his trouble that he fall for that Girl - but he let her feel like she was stupid. As we see - he is not the only one who look down on her. But maybe he was the first who broke her confidence. Her Dad must have been a great man. I hope his Death did not happen 15 years ago and is related - for me that is not what I like.
realy?!! I thought he prohibeted the use of that word because he hated that memory and if he and Min Kyu have the same password that would be a roblem no?!!
even though Baek Kyun loved her (and still have feelings for her as we can see) they were too different, she was/is emotional who acts on her feelings with no much thinking unlike him who hinks too much and doesn't give feelings that much importance and from the flashback we saw we can see that their different personalities clashed together several times till she finally ended their relationship!!
QuoteI guess a time will come old CEO and this american Guy will steal AJi 3. And I love Rescue Scenes. I have no idea what the Writer will prepare for us - but in my mind the strory just started to grow and my own fantasy barge in. Sorry about that.
When he feels like he harmed the one he loves when he touched them... you see - that what I mean... I am all in ....
hhhhhhhh I like it when your fanatsy starts growing!!
and I love rescue scenes so I'm totally in!!
sorry chingu didn't get it!! how can he harm the person he touched?!!
18 hours ago, Mau_Cherry said:A respectful question - can i get a gif from the hot performance in the start in small - so I could use it as a profile pic. Just if that would be okay. I still didn´t learn to do it. I can´t believe I changed my profile - he really got me.
hhhhhhhhhhhh welcome to the club chingu!! I was there too so I totally know your feeling right now!!
6 hours ago, eunjoyesung said:So excited to see Yoo Seung Ho in modern rom-com drama. Such a huge fan of him,,,
so far this drama is good and entertaining,
but I'm a bit lost about this whole Daeyang Shipbuilding and Santa Maria thing. Why did KMY end up testing the robot. And what's the deal with the resigning director? can someone fill me up?
Hi chingu, welcome to IANAR thread!!
from what I managed to understand, the former chariman of KM Finance was interested in robots but the board didn't agree with the experiments so he created Santa Maria team and invested in it covering it as a shipbuilding company and when he died the secret of that project died with him but the KM's new chairman (Yoo Chul's father) got the project's papers as the new chairman who took over the deceased one and planned to sell the robot to the american company with less price that it truly deserve and the resigned director was part of this play hiding the fact about the companie's money used in the robot secret researches and that's why Min Kyu made him resign, still there is other parts of the puzzle we don't know about like what he got from the american guy, but his plan failed because of Min Kyu's interferance at the last moment and he took the robot as well!! hhhhhh
hope that helped a little bit!!
@USAFarmgirl chingu, your words
Min Kyu was the 1st person who made Ji Ah feel useful, smart and needed after a long time of being looked down at and Ji Ah was the 1st one to give Min Kyu the old feeling of security, being looked over and cared about that died with his parents!! they found each other in the most unexpected ways but in the right time!!
4 hours ago, fans123 said:It was his heart goes first when she saved him or was it hers?
The part when Mg said:
don't let anyone in, I'm the only one allowed in there. From now on you only need to focus on me and follow no one else but meThere goes her heart
Love the ost that went along in this scene, don't know the meaning but it brings a little sadness in me when it played during JA had sleepless night after she moved out.
hhhhhhh I think his then hers but eventually both their hearts are gone for each other!!
and ours!!
yeah it was really beautiful though couldn't really understand much of the lyrics but it gave a sweet-sad feeling while playing!!
@vangsweetie637 as expected we share same feelings my fangirling partner!!
I love how unexpectedly both of them found what they needed and missed the most in each other
hhhhhhhh same here chingu same here!!
this young man is hot even with his clothes on!!
@Jillia thank you chingu for your realistic opinion, I enjoyed reading it!!
and like you I'm looking forward to the upcoming episodes to bring us more emotional depth and sizzling chemistry.

Chingu!! I didnt really enjoy the episodes on Monday night. It didnt make me laugh as much as I had expected. So, I've decided to avoid reading the recaps and just watched it with subs this morning! And I enjoyed it a lot. I think for rom-com, understanding at first viewing has greater impact on me. I am loving it.
I especially was touched when she saved him and he turned to look at her. That awe look on him when he was saved, and being patted at the back. I'm sure those touches were foreign to him. I love the look on his face. I pitied him a bit but I also love the joy in the discovery of his feelings. Ok.. I'm off to watch the second part of the episodes. Will come back and back track on the thread!
I understand you since for some dramas I just wait for subs to watch to be fully capable of feeling the drama, though I don't do that with my biases and surely not with with Yoo Seung Ho's drama
plus I can understand bits and peices so maybe that's more helpful for me and I'm happy you ended up enjoying the episodes with full understanding of what's beeing going on and said!!
oh yeah I so loved that moment and when she held his hand instead of doing the E.T moment like Aji 3 did with him, this one is more emotional!!
and about patting his back, I think she braught an old familier feeling that he lost after the death of his family making her action more special to him!! I feel sad but at the same time happy for him getting to rediscover the feeling of being cared about by others!!
18 hours ago, imnotarobot said:if the ratings continues.. yoo seung ho might not accept any more romantic comedy roles.. we all know he nailed very great performance for this drama. he is very silent person and he will feel and think that he didnt make justice for his work..
soo bin is very good in acting too but maybe no chemistry after all. kim yoo jung might be a good pair or so hyun.
However Kim Yoo Jung and Kim so hyun also got lowest ratings in secret door and school 2015 but both great series
Where is the OST..? please bring our not a robot ost haha
Black knight and nothing to lose release the ost..
thank you for sharing chingu!!
I know but I'll try not to think much about the rating for now especially that we're still in the 1st week so everything can change in the upcoming weeks
and I think that as long there is good reviews about the drama and the Yoo Seung Ho's performance, Yoo Seung Ho will be satisfied knowing that he gave justice to Min Kyu's character and made him loved and memoriable to the audiances!!
I'm actually loving her pair with Yoo Seung Ho and we're still to see more of their chemistry during the upcoming episodes!!
hhhhhhhh yeah!! I really loved both OSTs and can't wait for their release!!

17 hours ago, WoozyPrincess said:Whats wrong with the ratings! The drama is so good.
DOn't you all get moved at the end.. when he talks to about having a room in her, she is to think of him. Jo JI-ah surely were affected. It was so sweet and beautiful. My legs would have been jello if he said that to me..
we're still at the start, things will chanbge for sure!!
that's exactly me!!
and though he had no idea what he was actually doing but we can see that he opened that room in her (heart) with his words (and swoony eyes and voice ) already!!
17 hours ago, WoozyPrincess said:YSH can do comedy. His reaction was really funny! I enjoyed him being flustered. And I totally empathise with Jo JI-Ah.. she was so cute.
I was so happy seeing this new side of him!!
he's swoonely hillarious and cute if that make sense!! hhhhhhh

however because your here I’m going to start watching it !
chinguuuuuuu Hi
and happy I managed to get you start the drama and hope you'd enjoy it like I/we did!! I'll wait to hear you're opinion when you finish watching the episodes!!
14 hours ago, imnotarobot said:so many trolls and mean comments in naver
http://entertain.naver.com/comment/list?oid=109&aid=0003676932
Hopefully korean people will appreciate this hollywood type of comedy. Read many mean comments. ugh
thank you for sharing the link chingu!!
actually reading the comments I can see mean ones and I guarantee you from what I read those were from people who didn't even watch the drama and just state it their pre-hated-judgement on it and there is one who didn't watch or followed any of Yoo Seunbg Ho's dramas since Warrior Baek Dong Soo
so they have no value to me but there was also good comments saying that they had fun watching the drama and they believe in Yoo Seung Ho and I read many positive reviews on the drama's videos on naver so I'm happy!!
11 hours ago, MinQi said:Hi everyone! Been watching the first two episodes and so far, I'm enjoying it. Like some fellow soompier mentioned earlier in this thread, I agree that MK's 'human allergy' is rather psychological and not like normal allergy type that people used to get...
Anyway, JA's oppa is getting on my nerve, I mean, why he must said those harsh words toward his little sister. I actually worried that he will end up choosing the CEO aka MK frenemy's side (still don't remember the name tho..) and this will complicate things more when he realize that JA is actually his assistant sister.
Since I actually watch all three dramas in W-TH slot, below in the spoiler are my personal review. Read at your own risk, because it contained spoilers.
hi chingu!! happy you joined us here!!
yeah, I was mad at his unrespectful way of treating his sister!! I get he's worried for her but going that far to crush and look ovrer her things is unacceptable!!
still don't think he'll side with Yoo Chul against Min Kyu!! he seem like a good guy as mean as he may look to his sister but still he's someone who follows the right path from what I gathered not the easy one!!

7 Reasons you should fangirl over I’m Not a Robot’s Yoo Seung Ho
by whatadrama on Wed, Dec 06, 2017
The latest highly-anticipated K-drama I'm Not a Robot premieres today on DramaFever! To celebrate the first episode of this fun romantic comedy, let’s delve into seven reasons you should be enthused over the male lead, Yoo Seung Ho!
1. He’s been cute since forever.
Then 7-year-old Yoo Seung Ho starred in the heartwarming film The Way Home, which became a huge national success. In this 2002 film, he played a spoiled child from Seoul stuck with his grandma in the countryside for the summer.
2. He's been acting for 17 years.
SpoilerHis career started with family melodrama Gashigogi in 2000.
3. He finished his military service young and strong.
Yoo Seung Ho jokes that he’s a “winner” for having finished the military in his early 20s. In comparison, many Korean actors, like Lee Min Ho or Kim Soo Hyun, enlist in their late twenties. Yoo has said in an interview, “It’s a fond memory now, but back then it was so taxing. When work gets tough, I think of the military days. The repetitive work was boring, but I wasn’t worried much about anything either. Sometimes I miss it.”
4. He ‘s super humble.
SpoilerWith the success of Ruler: Master of the Mask, he realized that he “wasn’t an inept actor.” He says, “This drama showed my possibilities as an actor.”
5. I'm Not a Robot is Yoo Seung Ho’s first romantic comedy.
SpoilerOn his on-screen character, Min Kyu he says, “Though I was initially very scared about my first romantic comedy, I was drawn to my character, who is serious but also a little odd. I’m enjoying the filming process.”
6. Initially, he struggled switching gears from serious K-dramas to a romantic comedy.
For Yoo Seung Ho, who’s been in dark and serious shows like Remember or Ruler: Master of the Mask, it’s been hard to switch gears into a romantic comedy. He explains, “I did find working on this drama difficult. Till now, I’ve usually played roles that are dark and have a hidden past, so I feel more accustomed to those kinds of characters. It was hard for me to get into the mindset of the lead of a melodrama, so it’s been an interesting experience.”
7. His on-screen partner Chae Soo Bin has been a big help to him.
SpoilerRegarding the aforementioned switch of gears, he says, “I’d heard that when you’re in a melodrama, it helps if you truly care about your acting partner when you’re playing out scenes, and I think that’s true. In scenes when I’m interacting with her, I feel more at ease, and when I have to film by myself, I feel her absence. She’s been a big help to me.”

another great episode!!
I want the other episodes now!! *reachingoutmyhands*
let's tlk about this episode now!!
:
- now we know that Min Kyu's parents died on the same day 15 years ago so another guess was right. they died on a car accident 15 years ago and I think Min Kyu was there with them but was saved (thankfull) and I'm wondering if his mother was the one protecting him then!! he told her he's still living well as if it was her will to him!!
- and he doesn't trust his "childhood friend" Yoo Chul nor his father but he's keeping them as the CEO and the chairman?!! what made him not trust them and why keep them around him?!! well he needs them to take those roles I believe since he can't take them himself but I can see that he really dislike Yoo Chul's father!! why was he that angry?!! time will tell us but for now I'm happy that he didn't put his trust on them or things would've been really bad and that he's keeping an eye on them!!
-
whatever Yoo Chul's father is hiding and got as his part of the deal between him and the UK company will bite hime back since he can't keep his part of the deal so, Happy failing plan mister!!
-
I'm worried Min Kyu will misunderstand Ji Ah more when he finds out who she really is thinking that she aproached him because of his position as the KM Financial company that is responsable of her competition!! but they'll be fine eventually so let's not get too worried for now!!
-
I love how Min Kyu's reward to "Aji 3"'s good work is "inputing" himself inside her in other word Ji Ah!! hhhhhh I'm sure I wasn't the only one blushing at his words telling her how he'll make a room inside (her heart) and she's to see, think and follow only him!! and how hillarious and feting that his "password" to her "heart" is the last reminder of her and Baek Kyun's break up?!! hahahahahaha Baek Kyun's chapter has officially ended!!
-
oh and I so love Min Kyu's hillarious seriousness while being completely dummy!! my cuty!! hhhhhhh
about preview
- I feel pain for Min Kyu but it's good thing Ji Ah will get to know of his condition soon which will help her see the true him behind his "jerk" act and I think will help the doctor to find a way to heal him!!
-
and Baek Kyun even gave Aji 3 a dreass Ji Ah wore before when they were dating?!! and she totally forgot about it!! good sign!!
@aisling like you I believe that Min Kyu's necklace is a reminder from his parents and that's he cherish it but it's not related to his allergy!! his allergy is psychological due to childhood trauma and that trauma is related to his parents death in the car accident as we can guess!! his allergy not reacting to Ji Ah's touch is due to his full believe that she's a robot and of no harm/threat to him!! if you look closely at him talking with Ye Ri El in the preview you'll see that he wasn"t wearing the necklase as well but his allergy reacted to her touch!!

I haven't watched ep 2 yet so I might changed my opinion later. But based on the show given in ep 1. He won't be okay if he has physical contact with others, not even Jo. When she grabbed his collar for asking the money of the limited edition figure. Even a slightest touch already trigger his reaction. The one that he touched is The android who looks like her not her. Jo was asked by the prof to pretend to be the android and she just sent to his house. She surprised to know that the master is the one who didn't pay her job. End of ep 1. So, that is why I wondered how could she avoid to not touch each other or she'll know how to deal with the allergic reaction. I didn't read character description. All I know is just from what I saw so far. But as you elaborated, since it's his psychological disorder and since he thought that she'll the android he met last time, but I think allergy isn't that simply healed by alterig his mindset.
I mean, we see how its reaction before even it's not that long. And it's already made his skin goes burned red like that. So I am curious how they will overcome this later.
I know that, I got about that part already.
Sorry, I still couldn't memorize all their names here unless Kim and Jo for now.
it's ok chingu, I know more about the plot and characters because I've been following the drama's updates every single day after all
and I"d like to help with what I know
like you said his allergy as psychological as it is won't simply heal because he set his mind not to react to a skinship contact with a certain person, no way!! the key here is his subconscious believe that he's safe around "the robot" and that's what will stop his "allergy" from reacting to Ji Ah's skinship contact because to him she's Aji 3, the robot that he touched but didn't get allergy symptoms around a day before!! if he actually touched Ji Ah the 1st time not the real Aji 3 his allergy would've been activated because that subconscious believe and sense of safety wasn't there but after gaining that sense of safety with the real Aji 3 the sense of threat that activates his allergy is no longer there around Aji 3's look-alike but it can come back the second he realise that Ji Ah is actually a real human not the robot he thought she was!! hope I made sense!!
yeah I know I was actually answering @2handsintertwined question there but it got a little bit confusing since I tagged you beside quoting her and @Mau_Cherry chingu at the same time!! sorry if I confused you!!
it's ok, I find it hard to memorise all the characters' names of my dramas!! we memorise them with time!!

thank you so much chingu!! and fighting for your work!!
4 minutes ago, Mau_Cherry said:Wow - I love the Preview - I hopes she will find out about his Problem soon - and we know that his Problem started not that long ago. Its not from his Childhood like it seems - the Woman - his Ex don´t know about it. Thats how I see that. Can´t watch now - need to go. Thanks a lot @Berou !
I'm sure she will, he can't hide it now and believing she's a robot he won't try to and will be open about it with her I believe which is good and maybe can help his doctor with it!!
no, he's actually suffering from this "allergy" for 15 years ago and it started after "the" car accident but we don't know more about it and no one around him knew of his condition but his doctor and reacently the military doctors and now Ji Ah!!
see you later chingu!!

And aparently the one he got from her in episode 1 is different too.
Since her brother work for him, he is the one that can make happen her contest, she is the ex of the guy.... I don't think it would be weird for us to learn that her dad (mom?) and his parents die together too or that they were childhood friend.
I think the allergy reaction he got from Ji Ah and Ye Ri El are different than the one we saw with him holding the doctoc's hand due to the time of skinship he had with them so the level of his shock and syptomps were lighter than the one with the doctors!!
I was wondering about childhood connection between our OTP too!! maybe her father used to fix the car of Min Kyu's father and they met when they werre young?!!

Spoiler@yusefull right!! I'm happy that she's getting to know why he's the way he is and he's not really a jerk but a lonely person who locked himself in his huge house to protect himself from people!!

A lot of scenes go by of JA and MG in their life during this time of night. They are both lonely. MG contemplates selling the company or not. JA looks at her invention.
Finally JA gets a text from the scientist. They wonder if she can play a robot for a few more days?
JA tells her friend that she will make MG start the competition again to help young entrepreneurs.
The scientists are packing up all their items. They think JA wont do it, but then she shows up and says that she can work for them a little longer, for free, for a week. BG wants to know the reason. She says the reason is that they paid her too much, so it didn’t make her comfortable. She has one condition, they have to keep her there with food and boarding. BG tells her that they are moving…
While moving another van follows them. It parks at the company and two dangerous looking people get out. But then they take off their glasses and they don’t look so dangerous, lol.
Someone tells the president that the Santa Maria team dissapeared. the foreigners tell the CEO that they want this Santa Maria team. It looks like they had some shady deal. The foreigners want the AJ3.
cr: @V
I knew it!! I think they were planning to seel the invention without telling Min Kyu in a price lower than it really deserves and they'll get the profits themselves!! dirty people!! happy failing plan!!
more naver videos!!
well not that happy scenes though!!

But then the door opens. he is about to come into his own house. JA quickly hides her face. She wonders why that bad guy is there? Is MG the chairman of KAM bank? Her life is so messed up, he hits her, accused her as a robber, he messed up her life and he is the chairman of the bank. She meanders about this for a while.
that's bad, that's bad!! Min Kyu can end up thinking she fooled him because of the loan or whatever she wants from the bank that he's its chairman!! hate this!!
and I get that her brother is strssed but really this is too much!! why does he keep crushing her things and her heart!!
don't like his actions toward her!!

OUTSIDE
The secretary gets in MG car. They talk business. MG tells him to stop everything and to look at the data next to him. It looks like the secretary is a double agent? The president of the shipment company wanted to do robots but couldn’t because the board members said no. That is why he funded the robot company. But after the president died all the funding ended and now they have all these secret behind the scenes stories. MG wants the secretary to investigate all these things. The secretary is stressed out. he is caught in the middle of these two powerful men. he says he will investigate it.LABORATORY
The secretary goes to the laboratory and tells them to move the company to the chairmans house. the scientists are all like, what? The secretary says if they say no then MG will sell their company and it will be taken apart.MG goes to his families tomb and talks to his parents. He tells him Mom that he is living well and alive. Another man comes up and says that today is his fathers memorial day. he says his son isn’t doing as well as him, he is the CEO and MG should support him as a friend. MG says he doesn’t have that much power. Ah, maybe this man is the president? But he looks like a bad guy.
MG leaves and gets in his car and hits it an all those things. He is angry.
waaah so I was right and they were playing behind Min Kyu's back but he caught them!! hhhhhhhhh
at least Min Kyu doesn't give them his trust as I was fearing!! it's good to know!!

MG is thinking of the robot saving his life. He is pretty happy about that. Then he imagines all the things the robot can do for him like scratching his back and cleaning his house and smiling at him and smiling at him and smiling at him. She says if you train me then I can do a lot more for you. He smiles and thinks that maybe he can train a robot.
owwww how sad is that!! he wants to have a human interaction
but with a robot out of fear of humans?!!
and Ji Ah need to hold herself or she'll end up exposing herself!!

here are some of the comments I read so far!!
well he dated at least unlike our poor guy!! 
and his so serious dummy reactions are hillarious too!! 
hope that helped a little bit!! 
Min Kyu was the 1st person who made Ji Ah feel useful, smart and needed after a long time of being looked down at and Ji Ah was the 1st one to give Min Kyu the old feeling of security, being looked over and cared about that died with his parents!! they found each other in the most unexpected ways but in the right time!! 
but there was also good comments saying that they had fun watching the drama and they believe in Yoo Seung Ho and I read many positive reviews on the drama's videos on naver so I'm happy!! 
my mean chingu 
...you forgot 'the smile' 
don't like his actions toward her!!
