This may not have one of the most cohesive and solid plots out there but there are a lot more “popular” dramas that are worse than this...I don’t get the hate, really...but I do get the frustration because I am frustrated with the lost potential of the story - even the performance of the actors can be easily overlooked because of this.

I honestly believe this drama would have had a more solid storyline if it was just 16 episodes long (as compared to 20 episodes). The reason I gave this a chance even after the gruesome episodes 13 and 14 experience was because of how adorable Zero Nine was, Yeo Jin Goo never fails his fans with how talented he is at portraying and owning his characters...but even my love for him barely made me continue watching as I have decided to stop agonizing myself if episode 15 was as unbearable to watch...surprisingly, the story went back to its natural and original flow and that’s how I got to finish this drama (with an active choice to forget about how episodes 13 and 14 ruined its potential).

I honestly loved how the story built the love line between the main characters; it wasn’t forced in any way - it was realistic, relatable, and surprisingly natural. I loved the adorable robot but I couldn’t find myself rooting for their love at the beginning (obviously) whilst knowing how inevitable their separation would be, but the story had me going with its flow and mesmerized me with the natural development of their feelings for each other (how astonishing it might be for a robot to become self-aware, yet the one amazing thing in this drama was how they effectively integrated this in the story).

Yes, I ended up tearing my very own logical and rational mind apart - throwing away all reason and just asking the writer/director to let the main couple be happy, robot and all, I didn’t care anymore. That’s why, although I wouldn’t be able to recommend this drama to other people if you aren’t an avid fan of any of the cast or if you care so much about the cohesiveness of the plot (like me), but I also won’t let other people call this trash without even trying to watch past the prejudice this drama is getting. Because compared to other “popular” dramas, this actually left more of an impression.

This drama did RomCom justice, the cringe it gives you isn’t sappy - it actually leaves you giddy. Just that the writer/director weren’t able to give the plot and the cast proper justice - it was the engaging talents of the actors which saved the whole show. This drama had a whole lot of amazing potential, I tell you, and if you take away episodes 13 and 14 (or at least made better use of the scenes here), it would’ve spared this drama from a lot of criticisms and judgments.
