Are You Human? Episode 9

You know, I wasn't actually disappointed…

You know, I wasn't actually disappointed in So Bong (despite her unethical behaviors) until she forgot her mother's memorial. That was pretty shitty. On the other hand, I'm impressed that the writers made her someone who didn't immediately accept NamShin3 and showed something other than the typical flabbergasted-but-still-pure-and-cute-and-sweet female lead. She shows disbelief, disgust, fear, etc., and I actually think that's a much more realistic reaction, even if it makes the audience think less of her. How shameless of her to ask if Young Hoon doesn't trust her. He answered "I don't trust humans," but he would have been 100% justified in not trusting her. She betrayed Nam Shin not once, but twice! Not sure I buy Young Hoon's reason for being so dedicated to Shin, but maybe the real reason comes later in the show. Also, he shows a lot of similar prejudices against NamShin3. Obviously So Bong's attitude will change, but I wonder whether Young Hoon's will as well. RE: the failed driverless car project, it's true that Seo Jong Gil hired the hacker, but it's also true that the development team is at fault for not making the car's defenses impregnable. Sure, that hacker was so good he worked in the black market, but that's no excuse. Something as dangerous as a car needs to be completely unhackable, no matter how skilled the hacker is. In some ways, better to figure it out now before it's mass-produced and put out on the road. In fact, they should be hiring black-market hackers to test their defenses before releasing the car in the future.
