Goblin's making-of.

Behind the scene : Conversation between screenwriter Kim Eun Sook and film director Lee Eung Bok.

LEE - Writer Kim, I've been waiting for your script for days!
KIM - Oh! Sorry, it slipped my mind.

Writer Kim Eun Sook takes a piece of paper and quickly writes something on it.
Then she hands the paper to director Lee Eung Bok.

KIM - There you go.
LEE - ... ?!!!
KIM - The script! Read it!
LEE : (He reads the sheet).
LEE - That... That's all?

On the sheet of paper, it says:
(pretty setting)
900yearsGOB - So, do you see it?
SCHOOLGIRL - What do I see?
(nice atmosphere)
SCHOOLGIRL - Am I the Goblin's fiancée?
900yearsGOB - Only if you see it.
(some flashback)
900yearsGOB - Let's not see each other anymore.
(someone crying)
SCHOOLGIRL - Ah! You've come back.
(someone making an easy joke)
SCHOOLGIRL - Give me 5 million.
(something that sounds like an end scene)

LEE - But... but... What else should I put in?
KIM - Whatever you want, you have carte blanche.
LEE - Rea... Really?!
KIM - As long as it's pretty and a bit fairylike.
LEE : (Wondered face in disbelief)
LEE - Am I really doing everything I want?!
KIM - Yes.
LEE - All the aesthetic stuff I haven't ever been able to fit anywhere else?!
KIM - I'm telling you...
LEE - Uh, a meeting on a pier by the sea, and the wind?
KIM - Yeah, lots of wind.
LEE - A scene with snow at night.
KIM - Perfect.
LEE - People passing each other without recognizing each other, in slow motion and in the rain?
KIM - Yeah, that's the spirit.
LEE - Uh... A stage in Canada?!
KIM - Yes, Canada is very pretty, especially in the Indian summer season.
LEE : (worried look).
LEE - How are we going to explain that they suddenly find themselves in Canada?
KIM - Is it really that important? As long as it's nice?
LEE - Still...
KIM - Yes, you're right, we should come up with something...
LEE : (Thinking about it, he takes out a cigarette and puts it in his mouth. Then he takes out a box of matches and tries to rub one, but it won't light).
LEE - Bloody hell, we're not in a drama, I have the right to light this fucking cigarette!
KIM - I've got it!!!!
KIM - Every time the heroin lights something, it forces the goblin to teleport to her.
KIM - Anyway, let's just say that the Goblin can teleport to wherever he wants.
LEE - But... But why?
KIM - Just... because!
LEE - People are going to scream at the plothole.
KIM - Ridiculous, to find a "plothole", there would have to be a "plot" already.
LEE - Okay okay.
LEE - On the other hand, in terms of dialogue, your script is a bit short.
LEE - Even with my aesthetic scenes, we'll never manage to furnish everything.
KIM - Tttt, no problem.
KIM - All you have to do is take these lines of dialogue and repeat it several times during the episodes.
LEE - Huh?! Those same lines?!
KIM - Yes, yes. Better little and well written than much and badly written.
LEE - Um, it would be better Above all: much and well written, than little and badly written...
LEE - Besides, people will fall asleep, they might miss the lines.
KIM - You're right, don't forget to add flashbacks with these dialogues.
KIM - That way we're sure the audience won't miss anything.
LEE - Scriptwriter Kim, I know you're the highest paid writer on the circuit...
LEE - ... and in a way the best for the producers...
LEE - But I have a feeling your drama is going to be boring to death.
KIM - Not at all, it'll be a blockbuster!
LEE - But a blockbuster needs a thrilling story! Suspense! Cliffhangers!
KIM : (mocking smile)
LEE - While your mess is frozen stagnant stalling!
LEE - Nothing's moving. Everything sounds hollow, it's an empty shell!
KIM - Director Lee, you just gave me the recipe for a western blockbuster.
KIM - I make drama blockbusters! That has nothing to do with it.
LEE - A drama blockbuster must be that shitty boring?!
KIM - Don't worry, I know the recipe.
KIM - Top actors, a good promo, your undeniable talent, screaming songs for teenage girls.
KIM - It's fast food drama. No need for a story, or anything stressful... especially for us.
KIM - We give viewers what they want without skimping on clichés and over-the-top glamour.
LEE - A McDrama'...
LEE - I have a feeling that the MVs on youtube will be even better than the drama...
KIM - That's very good, it'll give us good publicity.
LEE - I feel a bit ashamed.
LEE - We're pulling the whole drama industry down with something like this.
LEE - Plus, we're really taking people for dumb.
KIM - Yah! We're not here to make art.
KIM - We throw the sauce, we collect the money, and the producers are happy.
LEE - Well, since I've got all the latitude to do all I want...
LEE - ... I'm still going to try to do something artistic with this, at least for the images.
LEE - After all, that's the main interest in working with you.


(If spectators found pleasure in seeing this drama, that's the main thing.
I'm not here to spoil the happiness of others, that's why I made a humorous text.
There are some truths in this text, about screenwriter Kim philosophy).

Worth watching again

I really enjoyed this show. The acting was superb. The chemistry among the actors was great. I loved how the relationships progressed among the characters. I loved how he sat at that seat watching his Ji Eun Tak and just fell in love. This show gave me everything I love in a good show, a great story, deep love, lots of drama, laughter and tears. I specifically loved the chemistry and friendship that develops between Goblin and the Grimm Reaper. I loved how they depicted fate and love and waiting.

First three to four episodes are slow.
Lots of historical background. It took many months for me to return to this show because I stopped at like episode 4 or 5. That's a lot of investment (each episode is 1+ hour), but I gave up because of the pace. The romance was attempted, but it wasn't there between the two leads. There was no chemistry between them. Great actors who act well, but no spark.

I only stayed for the bromance. It's bromance show.

And a commercial. This show has the most advertisement I've ever seen. Probably has the amount I've seen in my entire life.

The age gap between the leads though was too uncomfortable. Make the dude a 1,000 year old God at least in the body of someone who looks 25 or 30 instead of 40! The girl is in high school for God's sake. It seems too predatory with a 40 year old dude waiting for her finish high school.

This show murdered me, I am deceased. It's been 3 days since I finished watching it and I'm still thinking about it and feeling residual emotions.

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.

If there is any doubt for this drama , throw it away, because this is an Ultimate One. One word for this drama is "CLASSIC''!!! ????????Just loved it. It was Perfect from 1st Episode to the last one, I'm glad that I've watched it. I'd cried, laugh, this drama creates lots of emotions...All time favourite..You Should watch it,because you'll never regret it. Gong Yoo (Oh My GOBLIN ????????)an amazing actor,was perfect with that role & Kim Go Eun(Ji Run Tak) she's just fabulous actress. Supporting roles was too good. Lee Dong Woom was perfect as Grim Reaper. Many things which are good in this drama is it's Role coaster like plot , It made me Laugh , Cry , Smile & Most importantly Curious & Furious. Hat's Off to the Actors Directors & Specially those Who created OST of this drama , I mean how some Songs & Background Score can be so Perfect & Emotional !!! Still I'm speechless... Words are less to Appreciate this drama. 100/10⭐

My favourite show of all time!

I don’t even know where to begin with the series, I ADORE this series, it is my favourite K-Drama ever! From the minute I started the first episode to the end of this series.. it had hooked itself into my heart. The acting is some of the greatest I’ve seen, at times comedic but it shows the true character the actor is portraying. I love the different roles that each character plays and the dream team duo. It is one I have prayed for another series since! This series had me laughing and crying all at the same time, it had me feeling all emotions. It was a rollercoaster ride for sure, one I’d gladly go on time and time again. I’ve even managed to convert over friends to K-Dramas with this series ❤️ Goblin stole my heart and will definitely never be returning it to me

At first I didn't want to watch this, because it was popular and still airing. However after some time after releasing full dorama I gave it try. I didn't expect so many feelings. It made me laugh, sad and cry. I really love it, because story was amazing, but still ending left me in tears. Main actor who played Goblin is much older than main actress who played his Goblin's bride, so it was hard to imagine something between them at first. But I got used to all of it.

Well, this drama is undoubtedly a deserving hit in the area of kdramas. It's just that Kim Eun Sook is really one of the best screenwriters of kdramas, as she manages to create absolutely fulfilled and fresh stories, where even the secondary story-lines have their power. The only disadvantage of her works is that the last episodes become dragged and a bit too sweet but as it's something common in the dramas (the exception would be probably the best kdramas screenwriter Noh Hee Kyung, the author of That Winter the Wind Blows and It's OK, that's Love), I guess we should simply get used to it...
However, Goblin is my favorite Kim Eun Sook's drama and there are a lot of reasons. Firstly, here we find a really strong mystical atmosphere and an interesting world with its own rules (I cannot appreciate the perfect musical choice witch makes you really submerge into the fictional world). Also the humor side here is one of the best in the Korean area. Another wonderful thing is, obviously, an incredible cast and the diversity of original characters. It's really nice to see such a charming character as Lee Dong Wook's Grim Reaper, the main lead is also very good, then Kim Go Eun, Yook Sung Jae... And there are so many moments you can watch for a thousand of times and so few moments you prefer to skip... So, undoubtedly 10 ;)
