About
"A robot con that turns disarmingly sincere"
A wealthy, brilliant man is allergic to human touch after being burned by a childhood scam, so his engineer friend builds him a companion robot for company. When the robot breaks down, a broke, guarded young woman is secretly hired to impersonate it perfectly enough to fool him. What follows is a breezy, big-hearted rom-com that uses its sci-fi gimmick as an excuse for slow-burn intimacy, letting two wounded people connect through a lie neither can admit. It's silly on the surface but surprisingly tender underneath, carried by charming leads and a warm, hopeful tone.
Watch it for
the slow-burn chemistry between two guarded people hiding behind a robot disguise.
Maybe skip if
you can't get past a premise that leans hard into contrivance and disbelief.

Kim Min Gyu is the largest shareholder of a financial company. He suffers from a "human allergy", preventing him from normal interactions with other people. He becomes interested in a robotic project named Aji 3 created by the Santa Maria robotic team. The team is headed by Hong Baek Gyeon, inventor of Aji 3 and world-renowned robotics professor. He modeled Aji 3 after his ex-girlfriend, Jo Ji A, a struggling inventor that also works as a personal shopper to make ends meet. Just when Min Gyu wants to test the robot, an accident causes the malfunction of the robot's battery. Baek Gyeon begs Ji A to take the place of Aji 3 and pretend to be the robot so they can get funding from Min Gyu. But Aji 3 becomes the closest thing that the lonely Min Gyu has to real contact with another person.
