I loved the fact that this is a true story but I definitely had a few problems with it. I feel like it could have been condensed, I skipped quite a few scenes. We got a lot more romantic scenes that progressed the romantic relationship with the secondary couple compared to the main couple which I found frustrating! I really liked some of the main couples interactions but I was left wanting more.

I really didn't like the acting by some of the cast. Some was very over the top especially when it came to Dachaun's character and Wuyi's character. It was cringe at times which made me want to skip some of their scenes.

I didn't really notice the music therefore doesn't stand out for me.

I don't think I'll be watching it again.

This drama held my heart and squeezed it. Everything about Jin-ah and Joon-Hee’s relationship was so deep and raw. The sincere and bottomless love for each other is poured into every scene, it felt like I was falling in love along with them. I think it was everything about Joon-Hee’s character and Hae-In’s acting that captured my heart, he was so in love with Jin-ah it made me ache, especially when things weren’t going well for them.

The intimacy of the whole drama just added to the emotion over load. The colours were so warm and cozy. Not only this, but some of the shots were filmed through blinds which made it seem like your watching something you shouldn’t be watching. I loved this aspect of the drama.

I had some problems however, one of them being Jin-ah’s controlling parents. I think this is a culture thing, I know that Asian parents can be a bit more controlling than western parents due to their collectivist culture. This is fine but doesn't make it right. It also felt unnecessary at times, especially her mother with her unrelenting dramatic sighs - wow. Jin-ah not challenging this to the extent that she should have also angered me and frustrated me. Going on that blind date - what was she thinking?! I understand not wanting to lose your family but when it costs you your happiness the solution is clear in my opinion.

Also, another problem was how some characters wanted Jin-ah to take responsibility for things that were out of her control, this happened whenever her ex turned up and caused trouble. Joon-Hee as well as her brother got mad about this and directed their anger towards her, which I think is completely wrong. This is the only fault I can find in Joon-Hee’s character, he is still a bean boy in almost every way.

These problems aside my love and emotions towards this drama are strong. This couple has set my expectations very high, RIP my love life.

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.
