This drama turned out to be quite a rocky journey for me. I found the first couple of episodes (the first five if I recall correctly) hard to finish not only because of that lingering negative feeling coming from the lie that is at core of the plot. I just knew that there were some heartbreaking parts in the near future and that discouraged me from enjoying this drama to the fullest, I just stalled on it a bit. I also felt that tempo of the show was a bit off in the beginning. On the other hand, I remember a couple of episodes in the middle that were very well done and the ending was very solid and satisfying.

The other issue I had with I'am Not a Robot were the secondary characters. Don't get me wrong the cast overall was a delight but it took a long time for the characters outside of the main leads to find their place and purpose, they almost felt like props to me at the beginning. I was very surprised how the drama slowly created a solid structure of these people around Min Kyu - they started to feel real and turned into a backbone of the drama.

Yoo Seung Ho and Chae Soo Bin were a true delight to watch. I loved to see all of the shades of their relationship - from bickering to falling for each other. I was also pleasantly surprised by the comedy of Song Jae Ryong. Hoktal turned out to be one of the characters I rooted for the hardest.

Music was okay but no tune stayed lingering in my head. The opening score was nice, I liked it. I don't think I will come back to this drama as a whole but there were definitely a couple of scenes worth rewatching.

Overall this drama turned out to be a slightly above average for me. The struggle at the beginning slowly turned into a solid ending and I don't regret investing time into this one.
