This episode dealt with and A.I. and its integration with a human brain. But in fact, it dealt with loneliness.

SF8: Manxin
I really liked this episode. And Lee Donghwi starring it it has absolutely nothing to do with it. I am a professional.

SF8: The Prayer
Finally, a sci-fi show to watch.
According to Asianwiki:
8 film directors participated in "SF8," with each person directing a 1 episode TV special. The genre of the specials deals with science fiction, including AI, AR (augmented reality), VR, and robot games.
Which reminds me a bit of Black Mirror series. Now, as I'm one of two people I know who don't sing sky high praises of BM, I hoped it would be sci-fi but with a Korean twist that is giving the characters some emotions and thus - making us care about them.

Drama Stage 2020: My Wife's Bed
There was something deeply uncomfortable about this one. It featured (post-drama) a quotation from Charlie Chaplin saying "Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot." It was supposed to put the events in perspective here, but the episode with its indifferent narrative didn't assure us the events will ever be viewed as comedy.

Drama Stage 2020: Ogre
Since it's kind of a spring cleaning, I'm starting lots and lots of dramas that are occupying my virtual space. Among them, I finally got to start Drama Stage 2020 - a series of 10 short movies made for tv. A similar concept to KBS Drama Special, but here we do have a merging of cinematic experience with the format made for tv.
And since tvN is a big fan of long episodes, this even feels like a real movie.
The third year of Drama Stage has even its own name, the episodes are assembled as Color of My Life.

[First Impression] Team Bulldog
I will be honest - once again I went into watching something blind. I watched one teaser, true, but kdrama teasers say little or purposefully mislead the viewers. The very first episode made me sure I will be sticking with this one. It has a great mixture of crime, comedy, and satire as well. Sprinkled with great chemistry between the characters, some of them we meet in the middle of a dangerous operation which proves their story goes way beyond the acquaintance with us. And some just meet and... well, annoy each other.
