Mini-dramas have a warm place in my heart. When I am overwhelmed with dense plots and sad dramas, the mini-dramas help me to breathe a little and discover a fun and simple story. So today I gonna talk about "Kiss goblin", a mini-drama that conquered many people last year.

In "Kiss goblin" we know the story of Ban Sook (Bae In Hyuk), a goblin who wants to turn into a human. To make this happen, Ban Sook needs to kiss ten girls who the Queen Goblin (Lee Jung Min) determined. At each kiss, Ban Sook wins a new human emotion, and this makes his journey more and more complicated. In the middle of his mission, he meets Oh Yeon Ah (Jeon Hye Won), a college girl who works in a pub to pay for her studies. Yeon Ah finds out the secret identity of Ban Sook and decides to make an alliance to help him with his mission and be helped by him with her rent and domestic activities. We have twelve episodes approaching 10 minutes each and a funny story that makes you finish everything in the same day.

Starting with Ban Sook, I have to say that I love the character and Bae In Hyuk's performance. The way how he starts with no emotions and begins to show little by little in the following episodes is very fun and interesting. In Hyuk is very cute and plays this role exactly how he needs to. Oh Yeon Ah is also very captivating. She is a soft character and how Ban Sook says "A very cool girl". Jeon Hye Won is a young actress, but I think this girl is already a big promise to Dramaland. I enjoy her cameo in "True beauty" as a bully, and I think this versatility is the beginning to make a good career. I will cheer for her! The chemistry of the main couple is also pretty good!

About the plot of the Exorcist and the Queen Goblin... Maybe we will have a season two here? I think that will be interesting, but the point is they do their job as support roles. I think may the Exorcist could be a little more "persistent" in his mission to kill the Goblin, but I think that was a script choice to make things easier and fun. The scenes when he chases the Goblin and Yeon Ah keeps blocking him made me laugh a lot. The end is pretty predictable but doesn't leave any lacks.

As a relief and a break in heavy themes, I think this mini-drama is a pretty good one! (★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★) If you want something fun to pass your time without compromise with another extensive drama, go for it!

See you soon!
XOXO, Mari.
