Guardian: The Lonely and Great God

쓸쓸하고 찬란하神 - 도깨비 ‧ Drama ‧ 2016 - 2017
The main actor of “Tale of the Nine-Tailed” is also one of the main characters in “globin”, there’s even a reference to it on “the tale of nine-tailed”.
Both story’s talk about the first and only love. Both are fantasy/supernatural genre, The drama Goblin was immensely hit and was loved by its numerous fans. So if you are a fantasy and supernatural drama fan, this one is a must for you.

A list of similarities:

- Bromance (duh)
- Strong fantasy elements
- (some) strong female characters that can kick ass
- Action/mystery
- Characters have magic
- Two male leads have a hidden past that is not revealed until later in the storyline

Both protagonists are immortal beings who are alive for a long time ( resurrected or immortal ) only that in rattan the fl is the immortal and the ml is the human. Both dramas have fantasy elements . The vibes are very similar . comedy, fantasy, and the same themes, but with a change of gender in favor of the female lol

Both are supernatural/fantasy dramas with an immortal male lead who falls in love with a human girl. Both have epic bromances, as well!

The Day After We Broke Up is a lot less comedic than Goblin but it has a very similar supernatural/magical tone to it.

You'll know what I mean once you watch it.

Both have immortal male lead characters who suffer from their fate until the female lead frees them. One thing I found similar was that both male lead characters had guilt and pain and constantly had to bury people throughout the time they were alive

University student, Takatsuki Minato, likes things to be clean and in order while her stepbrother, Takatsuki Toru, is a bit of a player. One day, while cosplaying as a high-school student in a fashionable district in Tokyo, Minato accidentally bumps into Toru and quickly lies about her identity. To her surprise, Toru appears to take an interest in her alternate identity, Mina, and asks her out. Thinking that she might be able to cure Toru out of his playboy ways, Minato continues to disguise herself as Mina but will she be able to keep up the charade when she starts developing feelings for Toru?

Both has the summoning thing. Both of them had love- hate relationship. In both dramas main lead had to habitat home from the other lead. Both had unforgettable love experience!

I found myself wondering if The Devil Punisher was not a remake of Goblin. They have somewhat of a similar esthetic (though Goblin is much better made); look at how similar the show posters are!
If you like stories about ghost fighters and amnesia, then you'll love Goblin.

this drama has like 1/10th the viewership count to that of Goblin's, but something i consider far superior in story.

honestly, i think people who liked Goblin so much should watch this. truly an amazing drama. no fantasy though, and heavy palace politics that overrides romance. but i feel like this is THE drama that earnestly rewrites the rule for a good, heart-wrenching bromance for me, cry me a fckin river.

truly, could not recommend enough.

rating: 10/10.

Both are top 10 highest rated cable shows at the time of this recommendation that resonated with both Korean and international fans. Both are time traveling fantasy romantic dramas. Both are really funny shows that also have very compelling stories and characters.

A tale of love and adventure between an immortal fox and an artisan goddess. An eternal love that will face enemies in heaven and on earth.

Both are romances with a big age gap between a male and a female. In both the male is older one.
Both have as a main hero a loner, who lives a lonely life even though he doesn't have any money issues. A person who only wears dark colours and lives for his work (which he regards as the mission of his life) and has established part of his past life in a foreign country (which is in one of the dramas Neitherlands and in the other Canada). In both he shares a house with another male, whom the female lead almost befriends... Both have many flashbacks about his past.
In both the female lead is somebody, continuing her study, who he encounter by chance. The female is the person who finds him first due to a misunderstanding.

Both MLs are weary immortal beings seeking to die who meet the human FL who is fated to be short lived and holds the key to ending their life. Just when the MLs discover how to die, they end up falling in love.

The main lead can see ghosts.
The main lead help the wondering souls to settle and find closure.
Some laughs, some sadness, some heartwarming moment
