Beautiful Winter Wear and Interesting Premise Keeps MBC Drama I am Not a Robot Fresh for Dec 6th Premiere

If MBC‘s upcoming Wed-Thurs drama I am Not a Robot ends up not working, I may still stick around to gaze upon male lead Yoo Seung Ho in various snappy winter wear outfits. The drama finally has a premiere date of December 6th, three weeks after it should have aired after Hospital Ship other than that pesky network labor strike to oust a corrupt president. The drama has ostensibly filmed during the labor strike and is now readying for what will hopefully be a decent start. Rom-coms have been ratings terminators were years now with the occasional exception, and Yoo Seung Ho in his first rom-com lead role is my idea of an exception and hopefully K-ent viewers agree. He’s just soooooo cute, and doing justice to a variety of snazzy winter outfits that harkens back to one of my fave winter com-coms with Mary Stayed Out All Night. Yes, I know and lived through the narrative going insane but I loved the layers, coats, scarves, and general feel of two loners finding warmth in the cold harshness of life. I hope for a similar vibe here with Yoo Seung Ho as a chaebol loner due to his human allergy, and the girl pretending to be a robot who shows him how to love played by Chae Soo Bin.

  • I know everyone complained when Chae Soo Bin was cast but I think she looks good with Yoo Seung Ho in the teaser. Like they actually have chemistry and are not just two pretty people in the same screen.

  • Nothing to Lose may be starting 2 weeks earlier but INAR is in it for the win! Don't YSH has ever had a bad drama post army. Both Remember and Ruler dominated the ratings for 10 weeks straight. That's a big achievement. Looks like its hit drama no. 3 for YSH!

    • I don't know, the fate of some hyped dramas with Hallyu star leads this year makes me reluctant to say anything will be a hit until it actually starts airing.

      • But he's not a hallyu star but an extremely loved child actor so all his dramas are guaranteed to do well in Korea. Even PSH and PBY have never had a low performing drama.

  • with some kisses under her belt, i actually think she is good match for Yoo Seung Ho than younger and older ladies he acted with. Finally good match for him i hope.

  • I do like the clothes! They look normal, not bizarre. (Although sometimes I admit I do watch something just because I need a laugh and know I'll find one with weird kdrama outfits...) And while I know nothing about the actors, I really like the director. He did a great job with W--Two Worlds, and just as a softspoken way of pulling out great performances from his cast. So I really hope the script is good and the actors pull it off.

  • I'm loving the chemistery we got to see so far between Yoo Seung Ho and Chae Soo Bin and from the updates we're getting I can see we're going to have great fun :D

  • I love Mary Stay Out All Night too, for the ultimate Christmas winter romance. Moon Geu Yong is sooo different here compared to her usual serious roles. I really admire her cozy winter clothes and her beautiful long hair adds a perfect layer for warmth.
