Decided to watch this because I've commonly seen people talk very highly of it. Unfortunately, it was not my cup of tea. I gave up at around episode 6 and just read episode summaries for the rest so that I could finish the story without having to sit through any more of the episodes.
The first episode was okay but for me personally, it was not very intriguing. I wanted to drop it but, I had seen this site and so many people raved about it so I figured I had to power through because many people deem it to be "one of the best dramas". So I powered through for a couple more episodes but I just could not get invested in the show. The episodes were quite slow and it felt like the story was taking forever to happen. Unfortunately for me, the "bromance" between the goblin and reaper was just not enjoyable for me. It just felt childish and cheesy to me. The romance of the leads did not sit well with me either. For starters, the goblin literally looks like a 40-year-old to me (No offense main guy but that's just how I see you sorry). I did not enjoy the fact that he literally fell in love with a highschooler. The 900 something year age gap would not have mattered if they had a younger-looking actor but they did not. Additionally, KGE played this role too well and literally looked and acted like a 16-year-old to me. Don't get me wrong I love KGE normally. I just wished they had aged up the main girl character to be older, a college student at the very least. Also, I don't know if it's just me but I think because I watched this drama, but KGE just always looks so young now. In her other works she just always looks like an 18-year-old to me and its hard to believe that these roles have her in her late 20s (Not saying this as a bad or good thing I'm just simply stating it.)
There were some things I did like though! I love the music and OSTs, they are wonderful and added so much emotion to these scenes. I still listen to the album occasionally these days. Stay with me and Beautiful are my favorites. I did like how they traveled, it was really pretty to see. Especially in Canada, the background looked great. I also really like the cover image of her leaning on his back, I'm not sure why but I just think it looks good.
I really wanted to like this show but it is just not for me and I am ok with that. I respect that other people love it though as everyone's preferences are different.
