This show is incredible. I’ve never been much interested in sci-fi dramas and came across this one totally by chance. But now, I'm really thankful to god that I encountered such a masterpiece! I binge watched the series and absolutely loved it.
'Are you human too?' is a show that will leave you awestruck after each and every episode! The plot is perfect, story is perfect, cast is perfect and cinematic experience is so amazing! Seo Kang joon's acting is absolutely mind boggling, his ability to portray two very contrasting characters had me stunned more than once throughout the drama. In certain scenes where it’s quite impossible not to show human emotions, he maintains his robotic persona without fault. He’s so extremely lovable in one scene and as soon as his second character comes on the screen, you feel this undeniable hate.
I could relate to both Nam Shin 3 and Nam Shin as both were correct in their respective places. You'd despise the human Nam Shin and his psychopathic behavior but just think once, what does it feels like to loose your everything to a complete stranger? We've grown up watching movies that show how machines and robots could turn into evil and harm mankind. But what if it's the other way around? This drama shows how the creators can become their own destroyers over greed and ego. Presenting this angstful side of human nature just brought life to the whole drama and made it one of its kind.
Lee Joon Hyuk is a special mention here as he pulls off his role amazingly and makes the entire plot so thrilling. Also, I really felt that the connections between the male and female leads were so heartwarming. Be it his mother or his bodygaurd, the relations were pure and full of unconditional love.
This show hit me hard because it's way different from the old school love between human and robot.(as if it's possible you may say xD). Since this is a fictional sci-fi drama, you can not expect everything to be realistic. At some point you may feel that things are going overboard, but my only suggestion to you would be: ignore the little mistakes, watch it as a fantasy drama and keep your realistic logics aside for a while. This way, You’ll definitely enjoy this fun filled drama.
Moreover, I don't know who categorised this under pure romance genre as to me it seemed more of a political thriller and mystery drama. Bits of romance and comedy in between are just cherry on the top of the cake. The story includes so many things at the same time, that it'll leave you longing for more episode after episode. As the story unfolds, you get to dig deeper into the roots of hidden secrets.

VERIDCT: If you want to experience love, friendship, happiness, heartbreak, honesty, rivalry, politics, mystery and all sort of emotions at one place, this show is a MUST WATCH!

PS: OST of the drama is just heavenly and blends well with the scenes. It drowned me so much that i'm listening to it on repeat on Spotify right now
