The wait is worth it
The wait is worth it. I found Goblin incredibly slow for the first twelve-ish episodes and boring in regards to the first six or seven, but the last four episodes were so great that my initial rating transformed highly, and I'm so glad I was patient with this, instead of dropping it.
However, Goblin still has things I didn't like. Like I said, the pacing is the by far the biggest problem, but there were a couple of obvious plot holes I didn't like, plus the character of the FL until she becomes more mature was very irritating at parts.
But these are no problem in the last four episodes. In fact, the last four episodes showcased the potential of the story, characters and acting abilities into action. I think the main thing I liked about Goblin was the star-studded cast and their brilliant performances as always, and the other cast members I hadn't seen before or wasn't too much of a fan of, well, guess what, Goblin changed my opinion on them too, in a more positive fashion.
Another brilliant thing I must mention is the delightful OST (although in my eyes, a little bit overplayed).
All in all, it is a very, very slow start, but the wait is worth it. Can I recommend it though for others? Only for people who can never drop a drama!
