STORY: Story was BEAUTIFUL. Each scene either had me in fierce rage, crying like a child, giggling like a school girl or in absolute shock & in disbelief. It did not end the way i expected it to, but i still loved the ending even though it seemed like there were a few unanswered questions. At times i was confused (idk if this was due to my slowness), but soon the gaps were slowly filled. Each character had their own time to shine and i loved the short scenes that were given to minor characters to tell their own small stories of their struggles and hardships such as the one in the beginning of that little boy who was adopted into a European family. The first thing that got me hooked onto this drama was not only the concept and theme of it, but also the first episode, which i didn't expect to tear out my heart straight away and leave me with heartbreak. Although i would have liked their age gap to have been a bit smaller at first, i realized in due time that it would not have worked with the story line if it was. Therefore, it was okay for me. The whole plot was neither too rushed nor too slow for me. Everything was timed perfectly and the Goblin and the Goblin's bride's romance progressed well. Overall, i found the story and plot amazing! I took off 0.5 because towards the last couple of episodes, the Grim Reaper kept silently tearing/crying a little too much for my liking lol. (Yes, i know it's because of all the hardships he's struggled through, but still).

ACTING/CAST: Nothing much needs to be said about their acting and cast. Everything about it was PERFECT....FLAWLESS! Each played out their characters extremely well and each of them are able to tug at your heartstrings with each of their crying scenes! Let's just say, i cried with them at a few of these scenes. Each character had beautiful chemistry; especially the chemistry between the Goblin and Ji Euk Tak. Gong Yoo (Goblin) is honestly so damn handsome and ahem...hot, and his smile is so adorable! And Lee Dong Wook (Grim reaper) is so beautiful he catches me off guard sometimes. Kim Go Eun (Ji Eun Tak) is such an adorable girl. I can't believe she's 26 when she looks like an actual high schooler. When she matured in the drama, she became so beautiful when all she did was change her hair and outfits, and a little bit of her makeup. Yoo In-na (Sunny) was beautiful to me from the beginning til the end! She looks so young for a 35yo too. Yook Sungjae (Deok Hwa) was hilarious and i loved how lost he looked half the time. I first knew him as a BTOB member so i know how weird and funny he is in reality. So his acting caught me off guard a few times since this is my first time seeing his acting and i noticed how amazing he really is, especially during those serious moments like the one in ep 12 when they were at a bar.

MUSIC: In my opinion, Goblin had the best music and OST's. MY favorites were probably Crush's Beautiful, Ailee's I Will Go To You Like the First Snow, Sam Kim's Who Are You, and Chanyeol and Punch's Stay With Me. Each song was played at perfect moments which suited the scene. When you thought the scene was heartbreaking enough, the song that plays will make that heartbreak even worse. I didn't get sick of any of the OST's that played as i usually do with a few other dramas. So if you're a sucker for good, beautiful OST's, this drama is for you!

REWATCH VALUE: Okay first off, i gave the rewatch value a 9.5 because i don't fully know if i would be able to go through all that heartbreak again because i honestly almost couldn't take it at a few points. Other than that, i would've given it a 10. I would rewatch it for the funny moments and amazing plot, as well as for the romantic moments between the characters.

OVERALL: I put off finishing the drama when i finished until ep 11, not because it wasn't good but because the story of the characters was going so well and everyone seemed so happy. And i knew it was going to go downhill from there and the past was going to catch up to them sooner or later. This drama was absolutely flawless. It was hilarious and i LOVED the bromance relationship between the Goblin and the Grim Reaper! Loved their little antics. I regret putting this drama off for so long but i did not regret watching it and finishing it off in one day one bit. I knew this drama was an amazing drama because after i finished it, i no longer knew what to do with my life.
