Minah considers taking lead in MBC’s I’m Not a Robot
by tineybeanie
I didn’t know what to expect from Girl’s Day Minah, but her splash debut through Beautiful Gong Shim was a refreshing surprise. I found her to be extremely relatable in her daily struggles and even in that hilarious wig, which is why I was pleased to hear that she’s considering a new drama project, I’m Not a Robot, which is about a young man who falls in love with a robot.
She’s still only in the early stages of reviewing the script, but I hope she confirms because I think she’d be awesome at this role: The character is described as a young woman who has strong athletic skills but a low IQ of 94, and while inside she’s feminine, nobody sees that. She grew up knowing everything about cars because her father owned a mechanic’s shop, and she plans on opening up her own establishment. She barely entered an athlete’s college using her judo martial arts because she’s no good at studying. But her optimistic personality helps her get along with people very well, and she’s the type of person who can’t pass by an injustice unnoticed. Lastly, although she can’t cook, she’s No. 1 at eating and drinking. Wow, that’s exactly the type of girl I’d want to be friends with.
The question is how her character works with the premise, since it doesn’t sound like she has anything to do with robots, cyborgs, or androids. The articles state that she’s up for a leading role, so perhaps there’s another lead, or maybe we’ll get a birth/creation secret somewhere?
MBC’s I’m Not a Robot will air in October, following the end of Hospital Ship, Ha Ji-won’s upcoming medical drama.

Omg this sounds perfect for her. I would LOVE to see a female mechanic as the lead in a drama, that sounds awesome. This actually has me thinking of the book Cinder by Marissa Meyer. Cinder, the main character, is a mechanic and a cyborg. Maybe there will be something similar with Minah's character,

I loved her as Gong-shim, she was so adorkable, would love to see her in a drama again but what happened to the fallen-angel drama? Wasn't she considering that?

Was kinda bummed when she stopped wearing it at the end. The awkward wig completed the Gong-shim character, imo.

Yes, me too, I liked that better than this, I'd be a little sad if she's already rejected that!

I'd actually like her to be in that project instead of this because that drama sounds better. Idk, maybe I just don't like the idea of having two robot dramas around the same time because I know that Seo Kang Joon's robot drama will be aired in Nov and this drama premise kinda pop up out of nowhere from MBC.

I think this would be perfect for her too, but what about the other Angel Drama? I wonder if she's choosing between the two.

Hmm... since she knows a lot about cars, her father owned a mechanic shop, and she even wants to have her own shop one day, then... she'll probably somehow get entangled with the robot and end up helping the robot? That'll be cool. They could be bffs! Idk what I'm talking about. Okay, bai~~~

I'm a bit confused. It says the drama will be about a young man who falls in love with a robot. So, the robot is a female? And that is going to be Minah if ever?
