Goblin Audience Reviews

Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
goldinox Rarely do I come across a show that I immediately want to watch a second time - right after I finish it the first time. This is one of those rare shows. The story line makes you laugh and cry in equal measures, and the chemistry between the characters is great. And if you've never ventured into the K-drama world, this is definitely a standout.
mkrogm I would learn to read & write another language just to be able to understand all the nuances I'm sure I missed - although subtitles. Loved every last inch of this story and acting. Wish songs were subtitled also. - had microsecond concerns with the age difference of the main couple. Yet, I remember being a young girl that age and have to admit I would have fallen madly in love too. The idea that a centuries old being might love me back despite the difference in age would be hard to fathom in reality. But... I don't watch shows for reality. I can watch a documentary for that. -- Fully worth watching.
hiraayub-29260 I LOVED THE SHOW FROM THE START BUT FOR ME THE ENDING WAS SO FRUSTRATING! Like why did the goblin have to wait for 9 more years?!! Why did he not get the peace he was promised? Why did Ji-Eun Tak have to die?? Weren't 900 years enough that you make goblin wait for his bride to be born again?
lia00027 Goblin is maybe will be known as the best mystic Korean drama in 2017. At the beginning of the story we were shown the magnificent strength and the humorist side of the usually ugly-known creature instead here showing the handsome and masculine creature and the dorky yet melancholic grim reaper. What makes this drama interesting is not because of the love story, the good plot or the beautiful scenery and the good shot of scenes but solely because the chemistry love-hate relationship between the grim reaper and the goblin which I found refreshing in kdramas. Find this kind of relationship often happening in jdrama but never in usual melodramatic triangle-love-story kdrama, also sharing screen between 2 big actors whom usually acting as the main lead in their drama is very seldom.Kim Go Eun's acting felt good at first then got me boring since she has no improvement of her character's growing phase, even her sadness couldn't effect me since the emotion that she was showing just like what she would usually show in her other dramas notably "cheese in the trap".Gong Yoo this guy never fails to impress me when acting in romance-comedy drama, while Goblin taken as a suspense-romance drama. Gong Yoo gave the vibe feeling of the lonely and kind god resurrecting his character as the most favorite character of this drama. Lee Dong Wook's acting first is OK but when he was being sad I couldn't sympathize enough with his character since I have watched too many dramas so it takes tons to get me feeling sorry for the actors' acting, can't say he is acting bad though. Yo In Na doing nothing special here except her character just fill in to make the show more interesting. Others are decent actors.For the plot I like how it steadily following the story opening the background and past each character but following the ending the story became too touchy and not really appealing into me anymore. Seems the producer and the writer losing their touch with the beginning of the superb episodes then got lost on how to finish the story with great ending which they fail to do so. Hence vague open-ending presentable for the once-good drama.English songs are OK perfect for the thrill of this drama but the Korean songs are horrible and irritating me with the deaf-tone singers. The Korean songs are just not perfect for this drama or perhaps they could wisely choose better singers since this drama is suspense-romance not melancholic dramatic romance.
