Kiss Goblin (2020)

Well, just like many other short dramas, this one is straight to the point and very sweet. The leads share some heart-fluttering scenes and it's definitely worth it, if you want a quick, fluffy drama to binge.

The thing with this one, though, is that it's a fantasy show. Most short series like this are slice of life genre, so the plot doesn't need much development or explanation, but since this one has fantasy elements I really missed some more world building. I actually think, in this specific case, the writers could've gone for a full 16 one hour episodes drama, since there are many things that could've been explored better. Eitheir way, it's still pretty good as it is.

Cute, short, feel good vibes.

Kiss Goblin is a short bingeable drama about a 160 year old Goblin wanting to become human because he’s tired of being alone. For him to achieve that, he needs to accomplish kissing 10 women and get the strongest emotions from them. With an cute backdrop intended to make you swoon, the story starts off with the first kiss. I absolutely loved both the leads, they had their individual characters and complimented each other so well. As the episodes progress, it only starts to become cuter and cuter. There’s a certain exaggeration and few loopholes which one needs to ignore — mostly because it’s a short drama. Despite it being 12 episodes per episode, I took my time with this one. The pace is perfect and it doesn’t feel like the story is out of place. You can watch this if you aren’t sure what to watch but want a little bit of cute romance.

The epitome of good things come in small packages

I binged this in a single day to take a break from another drama that had me bored and annoyed.

For such a short drama, they packed a lot of story into it! The acting was good, the main couple was fantastic and the plot was interesting, fun and compelling.

I loved the fast pace, and each episode was structured very nicely to where it kept the plot moving along while also introducing new information and further developing the relationship of the two main characters. I absolutely loved Yeon Ah and her "I'm done with people" attitude during the first few episodes. She was hilarious and such a great character. And In Hyuk really did a good job at "becoming more human" each time he acquired a new emotion. Very solid performances on both their parts, and they had great chemistry, too.

Just a very enjoyable mini drama.

This was a cute K Drama. It wasn't meant for me to watch it after watching it. It was actually made for teens it was that cute. It had a good storyline but wished writers had made something like this for all to watch. I hope the younger generation enjoys watching this. The episodes went too fast for me and you can see scenes that were cut. This should've been made into a short movie without all the episodes. It is what it is. Writers, you had this right but should have been more content. Like I said it was cute. The actors and actresses were all young and learning so that's a good thing. It was created in 2020 so I will check my list to see if they made other Dramas. I hope so.

Cute, short ride

I enjoyed this show, it has been the perfect excuse for procrastinating what I'm actually supposed to do. The actors are handsome and credible and I liked the chemistry between the main leads. The quality of this show is similar to the tv dramas, which is not often the case for a web serie. This is why I was disappointed at the ending. The main problem and the solution that the writers find is a bit weak, from my perspective. The characters could have found a lot of creative way to overcome it, they had the time to organize it. And they could also do other stuff before that one.... I'm just saying...
Also the story of the second leads is almost useless, just as their chemistry. Sad because I really like Jang Eui Soo. But they don't have much screen time, so it isn't really a problem.
All in all, everything was fluffy, cute, easy to watch, well directed. I didn't skip anything and probably I'm gonna watch other work of Bae In Hyuk because.. damn!

I wasn't expecting this to be as short as it was, honestly. From the looks of everything I kinda cleared my whole schedule to binge watch it. It's weird to finish a show so early. Haha

Either way, I really enjoyed this drama. Short or not, it was put together so well with such amazing actors that I couldn't help but to fall in love with it.

This will probably be the one of the rare times I'll need to come back to a review to fix it because I have to many thoughts and emotions that I need to sort through. So if you read this and are like "-_- wtf is this?" --I'm sorry, I will fix it and give more "review" when I'm sorted. Lol

Kiss Goblin is a must watch!
It’s a super sweet show that’s super short. If you’re looking for a quick binge that will make your heart happy, this is the one.
It’s a cute story where we get to see the main character learn emotions and grow as a person. The characters are fun and I think the cast is perfect.
The ending is definitely cute as well but it was also interesting. I feel like they could do a second season where we would learn about previous goblins.
There’s not much to say since it was short with a simple story, but it’s definitely worth watching and I’d probably watch it again.

Short series yet still well developed and interesting

9/10 is my rating. This is a 2020 South Korean Supernatural Fantasy Romance drama with 12,12 minute,episodes. Also known under the title “Kiss Ghost.”

Ban Sook (Bae In Hyuk) is a 160 year old Goblin who has gotten lonely and wishes to be human. The Goblin Queen stipulates in order to be human he must kiss 10 humans of her choice. Sounds easy he thinks after all his good looks and Goblin magic making kissing the girls easy. What he does not realize is the Goblin Queen carefully chose each woman based on her predominant emotion and that Ban Sook would take on these emotions after each kiss. In the course of his missions he runs across Oh Yeon Ah (Jeon Hye Won) who sees him kiss her friend and another girl and thinks he is a player. She is jaded as she has been cheated on so finds Ban Sook‘s behavior particularly offensive. Circumstances make it so she helps him guarding him from an exorcist determined to kill him. Will dislike lead to like lead to love?
What does the Goblin Queen have in store for him?

*spoilers. I liked this a lot just wished it was longer. On the other hand if you are coming off a long, heavy drama this could be just the short yet fluffy drama you need to recharge. Bae In Hyuk is gorgeous so watching him is worth it in any case. The plot line is interesting and they do a good job with it despite the brevity.

A Short, but Magical Korean Love Drama

I decided to watch this series on a whim, because I actually was curious about why one would kiss a goblin. Well, I definitely got my answer one I tuned-in to this Korean Drama series. I can probably say it will be be one of my favorites that I will keep watching over and over again.

Actor In-Hyuk is incredibly beautiful as his character develops in the story. And the leading girl character does such a great job and the chemistry between the two actors is absolutely believable. You may even feel like you get to know them and feel like their best friends, by the end of the series.

I very much enjoyed how well this series was filmed. It's quite a beautiful series. And I love the costuming of the goblin (In-Hyuk) and the antagonist in the story (the other guy)..

In all, I really loved this K-drama. Lots about love and loyalty, all in this lovely fantasy series. Do give it watch!
