This is one of the best dramas I have watched in my life and I am talking about and I am talking about one of the best American, Korean, Japanese and Chinese dramas.

The scenery are so beautiful in some scenes that I think Korean tourism improves because of this drama. Again, this drama touched one of those challenging taboos in society - a high school poor kid falling in love with a powerful rich man way older than her. In any other circumstances, this point of view is highly controversial, but since this is a Goblin we are talking about, our moral values surrendered and went along with the story line.

I love the lines on Gong Yoo's face. especially when he smiles - weathered line.... so majestically handsome.

The OST is just so so amazing. I would watch this drama over and over again just to listen some of the songs with its matching scene.

Breathtakingly scripted and captured on screen. Must watch!

Fantastic Periodic Drama

Love this drama. So funny, witty and the rhythm is really good. It is not draggy. The part that I find most amazing is the number of casts they included in this drama. It must be really expensive to portray so many characters of the book. The production team didn't save money on this and I was so impressed. THey did the casting really well as well, none of the actors and actresses looked cheapskate (you wld find this in some low budget drama where they would cast really badly on the badguys)

The story is so amazing as well, so much of intricacy moments all intertwined together, like a big jigsaw puzzle. I had to go to Youtube to search a few synopsis to understand the relationship between all the events. So glad that the scriptwriters managed to write the scenes well, or else, it would have been so difficult to understand.

I have only 1 complaint. They left us hanging on the last episode. It's really crappy to be watching a drama that paces so quickly and suddenly to be hit by a last episode that hang half way. I should have waited for S2 to come out before watching this.

I hope in the next season, they will feature Yuan Quan more prominently (the professor) I love her acting. She is that kind of actress that carries so much complexity on her. Definitely more than meet the eyes.

The set is so cheesy. Too much of gold gilded props and they aren't refined. Looks rough and cheap (sorry). Donghua's white hair looks too stiff, like not natural. Casting is only so so, costume also only so so.

Rhythm is so slow, not much to look forward to.. Gave up after 6 episodes mainly becoz it's unattractive to the eyes and this is despite the fact that I love the couple Dilraba and Vengo and I was a big fan of Eternal Love (Yang Mi and Mark Chao).

I am guessing I am disappointed with the production team. Feels like it's not a drama for international market.
