Are You Human Too


A story of an android developed by Dr Oh who missed his son ( the enigmatic Seo Kang Joon) who was taken away from her.

The android was asked to impersonate his son who were involved in an accident and got into a coma.  A personal bodyguard (Gong Seung Yeon) was also hired to guard the son/android.




Review.

An interesting premise exploring relationships between humans and robots/AI.


Goddamn I had wrote a long ass review and blogger didn't save it. I wanna cry.

I will now wrote a short review because nobody is paying for this content.

Storywise? 
Almost great, almost had it if not for the motives of several characters.

Romancewise? 
Setup nicely and almost organically even for a human and non human romance. The leads have great chemistry.

Acting wise? 
Gong Seung Yeon was good as usual. Not her best drama though. Seo Kang Joon is a revelation. I will now be in a lookout for him. He manage to play 2 different characters while playacting as another character convincingly, subtly and effectively. Everything from the tone of his voice, facial expressions and body posture are being done amazingly well. I am now a fan.

Almost non human that look. 


Did it stumble and fall? 
Typical of kdramas where it always start off strong and then become tepid or just incredibly bad towards the end. This drama is the norm, where it started out strong then became a tad bit erratic but manage to pull back in the last few eps. But the last eps was wrapped up too quickly. It is not bad though, but it could be better.

IMPORTANT ASPECT OF KDRAMA ESSENCE :

BOYFRIEND LEVEL:
OFF THE CHARTS. 9.9/10 . 0.1 off for not being an actual human.

HEROINE AWESOMENESS: 
6/10 . Start out strong then becomes tepid towards the end. Such a disservice to an initial strong character.

SECOND LEAD GAME: 
N/A .

VILLAINERY: 
5/10. Too moustache twirly sometimes and few characters motives are vague and annoying and unnecessary. The weakest part of this drama tbh.

CHEESINESS:
Cheesy all around but leads pulled it off.

Final Verdict...

Recommended? 
Yes if you can get past human and machine romance.

CNY trips like many other before me

So, I had finally made it to Cameron Highlands after 17 years last I had step there. Nothing to say much here because I am sure many of you had gone there and know your way and experience more than me. As I make the trip , reached there morning and going back late afternoon. Before even reaching Cameron I needed to make scenic stops to go to the restrooms.  Above picture 1: Ridiculously 3 cute same colored cats whom were mewing quite loudly and is just so cute I wish I can adopt them all. Above picture 2: A lovely sungai that make me wish I can dip in tapi tak sempat sebab nak gi Cameron.  Above picture 3: A ridiculously lovely view from my toilet stall. I doubt there is a more scenic views in a toilet stall anywhere else.  We reached Cameron at 10 am, after departing from KL close to 6 am. Massive jam ok. Memula rase nak patah balik je. Tayar bas tercabut, jam. Kete rusak, jam. Kete kena saman polis, jam. So we didn't make it in time to my husband's favorite br...

New arrival

I have delivered a healthy baby boy! Currently am dealing with all the new stuffs associated with new mother, breastfeeding woes, sleepless night, murderous tendencies at 3am towards little one. So a bit late in updating. In short, I gave birth to this little bundle of cuteness at 5.37pm on the 3rd of August 2012 on my 38th weeks. Unexpected ( somewhat ) delivery ni, as I have to be induced and later gave birth to him via c-section. EDD 14th Aug, and sepatutnye also I was suppose to be induce today instead last week, tapi mende nak jadi. As long as semua selamat. Anyhow will update more later. In cat news, Bobby kena stay at the vet due to lung infection. :( Sedihhh. Hope he gets better soon. Tak tahu how it happened, but it does and hope kucing lain tak kena.
