Apologies in advance - I’m still getting my bearings on this reviews thing especially since I love this drama so much!
Most people who have seen me in the comments section will know that I have no expectation of dramas when I choose what I want to watch and that I also don’t compare. I have compared only once before but looks like I’m gonna have to do it again. :D

First of all, I haven’t been able to complete a k-drama since Strong Woman and Go Back Couple which I watched whilst they were both airing. If you watched them whilst they were airing you’d know how long ago that is now.  My reason for watching this drama was simply because it was about robots (kinda) and that in the teaser they said it’s a romantic comedy.

I’m not gonna lie, in the first few minutes of the drama I noticed the female lead was also the lead in Strongest Deliveryman which I only watched as far as episode one so I was a bit like “oh no, not her. I hope she’s not horrible for no reason in this one too”. I had the idea in my head that she was gonna be exactly the same as her SD character so I continued watching just for the sake of completing the first episode. I will admit that I wasn’t in the best mood the first time I watched it so I didn’t pay too much attention to everything else that was happening. So the next day I gave it another go and I fell in love!

This drama is for anyone who loves cute and fluffy dramas similar to Strong Woman and Shopping King Louis. I was crying, laughing, smiling and even felt anger and guilt throughout the entire drama. I think this is the second drama I’ve watched that has strong messages about family, friendship and love.

The bad bits:
? There were little tiny itsy bitsy questions that I had by the end of the drama but I didn’t think we’d would actually get any answers for but hey that’s drama for you
? It made me cry 30 out of 32 episodes but I’m pretty much an emotional person. Have your tissues (or in my case sleeve) ready!
? Instead of SLS I had a bit of a soft spot for the actor Kim Min Kyu- he’s so adorable in this drama

The good bits:
? It’s super cute and fluffy and leaves you wanting more.
? In my opinion the speed of the storyline was just right, it didn’t feel like it was dragging or rushed. In all honesty I wish it was like a UK soap which never finishes unless the network cancels it.
? The ending for me, in a word was absolutely perfect. It didn’t end in the usual wedding and baby cliche which is where I thought it was gonna go but I’m happy that it didn’t.
? The OST - MY GOODNESS ME!!!! I could listen to the whole thing on a loop all day long - which I have!
? The cast I believe worked extremely well. You could feel their love and affection for one another. They really made me wanna watch more so I’m glad I gave it another go otherwise I would’ve missed out on such a fantastic drama.

Rewatching value for me is 100/10, I will never get bored of rewatching.

Well done to everyone in and behind the drama. I look forward to seeing more of their work, even if it’s not together. :D
Well done to everyone who hung in there with the weekly Tortures of Cliffhangers. It hasn’t quite sunk in yet that it’s over because I’ve not felt sad but I’m sure after a few days it will hit me like a ton of bricks. XD
