Slice of life meets animation meets reality
Yumi's Cells achieved something we rarely see on K-dramas, capture life as it is, with an outstanding adapted screenplay, flawless direction and edition and perfect characterization, both Kim Goeun and Ahn Bohyun deserves all the praising from the media and the public as well as every person in the making of the animation and voice actors. This drama will be forever in my heart, if I could gave it a 1000 I would.
Came back here just to ask: you guysssss - 3rd season WHEN?? We need 3rd season, okay??
Super cute and hilarious. I'm loving it so far!
Ok, so edit after finishing season 1: yes, this drama is cute and hilarious, but it's so much more than that. Here I am jumping through the roof, excited, worried, angry, annoyed, happy and heartbroken, as if all that's happening were happening to me. Changed my rating from 9 to 10 because this one is a genuine gem, a precious darling that's going straight to my favorites.
Second edit after finishing Season 2: I'm even more excited, swooped, annoyed, happy and heartbroken this time. Not sure how this could be possible, but here we are. It's still a 10, and I really hope we get season 3 because otherwise I have no idea what I am to do with all these feelings.
Oh, and p.s. to Yumi: Honey, if you don't want Yu Babi, can you please send him my way? Thanks!
Ome of the best romance serie I've ever watched...
S02.... it's the best season yet. Truly an emotional rollercoaster. I don't think other kdramas can match the ups & downs this season has. TT TT
It's been a long time since i watched a good korean drama. I binged watched the first season and i never missed the episodes of second season.
Although my heart belongs to Woong, but I felt all the feelings in the drama. The love between them and the hardship seems to be real to me. I can't wait for the third season.
I am reading the webtoon as well.

Yumi’s Cell is the first Korean drama to blend in animation into the drama in such a intrinsic way. You can seen that there is a lot of work behind it and these little animated figures do a lot for the story and make it stand out from other dramas. The story really come to life because of them; which otherwise would have another boring couples story ....
Yumi's Cells has perfect beginning but midway i noticed the spoilers and realized the endgame which made me loose interest in the show. After investing in a couple its sad to see the writers use miscommunication again as plot for breakup .
I also don't like Ji Young ( he spoiled Devil Judge for me) and his character in this show is all flirty with another woman as he is lonely with his reporter girlfriend and i was not sad at all with his breakup .. Also I know he is not the end game for Yumi but I can't gather courage and interest to watch S2 with him in .
I hate how they suddenly muted Wung's communication algorithm and its a lesson for all men to learn to communicate . I also hate how Yumi also blindsided him with breakup card . I understand she is hurt but she is at fault for cutting him off and not communicating
I Like how realistic the show is but for some reason I am sad at the ending .. I would have even digested if Yumi -Wung fell out of love. The fact that Yumi became Wungs #1 right before the breakup hurts even more.
But I like message the show delivers at the end to Yumi
I found Yumi’s Cell to be quite sweet, warm and funny drama to watch. It is missing a key element that I like in kdramas, which is that the story hasn’t ended yet because we are only at the end of season one. I personally really enjoy kdramas because we get a beginning, middle and a end in about 16 episode. It’s one of their charms. There is so many shows that drag the plot and the tension until most of everything you enjoyed about the series is no longer there. Yumi's cell fall into bigger Hollywood trap of multi-season story and loose the charm . So message is don't watch until S3 is released , only and only then you might be able to bear the torture called Yumi's cell. There is a high possiblity i will not be watching Season 2 when released and only watch on S3.
