Best fantasy drama
I am obsessed with this show and everyone in it. The acting in this show is incredible. l love the bromance and the relationships all the characters had with each other- there was never a dull moment. If you pay attention the show also has a lot of profound life lessons and messages to teach you. The ending is definitely bittersweet, it's framed as a happy ending but when you really think about it you realise that the joy will be short-lived.One of my biggest pet peeves with fantasy shows is when they introduce a world that has certain rules and they don't stick to them for the sake fo a happy ending for the characters. l guarantee you that this drama is so well written that it doesn't break any of its rules even though you wish it did at times.
It's in my top 10 ultimate dramas, l highly recommend

ahhhhhhh that felt long af. but overall, idk. the hype about it seems a little overhyped, yk but I've heard many ppl say that the hype is real but ig not for me. It's good but I dont think its as good as some people are making it out to be. HOWEVER, I finally understood why ppl crush on Gong Yoo all the time, it might be the way he just speaks that attracts you. He did amazingly in this drama, and how bro was such a small part in Squid Game as the Salesman yet still captured the interest of everyone watching. He just has this "vibe" around him that feels really nice. I'm glad it was a happy-ish ending, they met again after reincarnation. Idk how Ji Eun-tak (Kim Go-eun) rememberd Kim Shin but alls well that ends well I guess. The OST bro I feel myself whistling it sometimes unconsciously, but until now idk what it is called :( it has no words I don't think, the part that stands out to me is the little tune. But I feel like 16 eps was a little long for it causing me to lose interest, but as I pushed on it worked out in the end. I literally bawled my eyes out when Eun tak died, and I don't cry a lot on a daily basis. Overall, 8.5/10. Overhyped but not bad. Was this review helpful to you?

Gong Yoo as Kim Shin/Goblin was captivating. I loved every scene that he was in and the feeling that Gong Yoo brought to the character made the show for me.
I was a little unsure about Ji Eun Tak at first since she acted so young but I feel like her character was everything Kim Shin needed. She matured quite a lot as the show went on as well as keeping some endearing childish qualities about her. So, although there is a lot of controversy surrounding her age, I think that it was fitting for how the show developed.
The Grim Reaper was perfect, his awkwardness and dead-pan personality. The relationship between him and Kim Shin was one of the reasons l loved the show so much.
I had so many emotions watching Goblin. I laughed and I cried and I loved the characters endlessly. A few episodes in the middle were slower than the rest, but it didn't phase me. I hadn't watched a fantasy drama before this one and I found I really loved the elements. I'm checking out more fantasy dramas as we speak.
The music blew me away, I've been listening to the soundtrack ever since. The best songs, in my opinion, are round and round, beautiful, and I'm here, stay with me and heaven. If I listen to and I'm here there is a 99% chance I will start crying again.
I felt the need to go back and rewatch it the moment I finished it, so it is no doubt a drama I will be watching again countless times.

Love never dies it helps one live
Well this was amazing I can't say anything bad about it, it's a beautiful story. The music is amazing I download all the songs after seeing the movie.The actors did a great job, it really feels great when you see it you feel like it's really you can't wait to see the next episode.
I cried the tears of joy and happiness and sadness but it was all worth it I would recommend everyone to see this.
My favourite song is beautiful by Crush followed by who are you by Sam Kim.
Story line was the best, it reminds you or us why we love and remember the ones we love or once loved, all the acts of good and bad they are part of one to make a choice this what we see here.

This drama truly is something else, from someone who loves watching dramas to see how plot could potentially develop/ how characters could potentially develop; this is probably one of my top 3 dramas of all time.I'll start with simple aspects like the cinematography, background music and OSTs are breathtaking, I cannot flaw them in that aspect. The directors were truly genius with the way they decided to film, cinematography in this drama held a lot of meaning behind it, sometimes it would take someone to look twice to notice.
Plot wise I must say it one of the most original things I have ever watched, the plot developed well and contained no visible holes that I could criticise, usually creators would fill those holes with unnecessary side plots or love triangles or underdeveloped characters, however, the plot of this drama is complete in every way. Just the right balance between reality and fantasy, a very thin line that not many dramas were able to hold onto very well. The plot stayed true to itself; when said thing is going to happen, it will happen. No shortcuts or exceptions just because the main characters where involved, that's what I like about this drama, it refused to stick to resolving the plot and dismissing main points just for fan satisfaction. All in all, the plot is incredibly thorough and captivating, heart wrenching but also somewhat warming.
I think the thing that surprised me the most about this drama is how the characters are all so developed, no one is completely good, no one is completely bad and they all have their own struggles. I don't think there's a single watered down character or a character that did not suit the plot. They were all so attached to one another and that's something you rarely in see in dramas, usually it's the male character attached to the female character and the 2nd lead attached to the 2nd lead female. However, you get to see them all relying on one another, physically and emotionally attached to one another. The chemistry between the main male leads was invincible as well as the chemistry between the female leads, this drama truly showed that love was an umbrella to many different types i.e. brotherly love, platonic love, romantic, etc. Likewise, the romantic aspect of it was also very well thought, the chemistry between the actors felt so real I almost thought they were dating in real life.

Absolutely one of my favorite dramas! I’ve watched drama three times now! LOL! The comedic chemistry between the two maleactors had me in stitches! Their banters
were hilarious! I enjoyed the twists and turns of the story, and lost many sleeps trying to watch episodes!
The acting and storyline were fantastic! I believe this has to be one of the best Kdramas I’ve watched!
The OST contains my favorite songs! I hope this drama won many awards, including acting and OST!

When 949 years you reach, look as good you will not... yes, yes.
And many more yesses for this melodramatic goblin-reaper drama that will spook you out for a few centuries, at least. The tension between the reaper and chicken-restaurant owner is fun to watch, and brings balance to the teeny-bopper crushes and tears of the main protagonists. A plodding, philosophical drama on life, the supernatural, and our timely existence. Breathtaking views of the walled fortress of Quebec City bring back fond memories. Good acting by all, though I preferred the supporting couple.Was this review helpful to you?
