Finished watching Are you human too? and hated the ending. What d'you mean, Dr Laura died? The foremost AI scientist in the world, not to mention being both Shin's mum, without whom there wouldn't even be the drama's events, basically got fridged. So annoyed. I know human Nam Shim needed a massive, heartfelt shock to get his head out of his ass (and he would still be a jerk) but there must be a way to do it without going for the cheap shot of killing off his mother. I loved the ending for Kang So Bong and robot!Shin, but Dr Laura's death robbed the story. I didn't always like her but she was a really fascinating character (building a robot to look like your son?), and I was waiting for her to turn the world of robotics on its head. And now. Trying to think of a good fix-it alternate ending.

On a totally different topic... Am trying to get my head around the realisation that there is a statute of limitations for sex crimes in the USA. (And I assume other crimes too?...) You mean it's like South Korea? How/what/why even-
