The story is actually quite simple but it worked well and was good.
I loved Yoo Hae Jin here. His character and acting was perfect. As for Lee Joon, his acting was great but I didn't like his character that much. I wish his character was better than that. I would have enjoyed the movie that much or maybe even more if his wasn't here.
But I liked the ending and I maybe wouldn't have enjoyed it that much if he wasn't here.
Anyways, the acting is great, the music suits the movie well.
I would rewatch it and enjoyed it that much I think.
This is just a lovable movie. Perfect if you want to want to watch something light and not think too much.

Story:
I liked the story. It was actually pretty interesting and different in a way. Some would say that the age gap between the 2 main character is hard to overlook but it was okay for me. What I mean is I wasn't really paying attention to that part as the drama is based around something fictional, the age gap is just a part of that. I like the relation between the two main characters but also with the second couple. The bromance was also a very good part of that drama. I just wish Deok Hwa played a bigger part of the drama. Usually, there are some characters that I don't like in a drama, like a big villain but I just liked every characters here. And also, I enjoyed everything regarding the Grim Reapers organization and especially the Grim Reaper (Lee Dong Wook).
Acting/Cast:
They all did a great job and I think they all suited their role. Gong Yu as always is a very good actor. I was also very surprised by Lee Dong Wook, if was just perfect as the Grim Reaper. Also, Kim Go Eun is a good actress (that I saw in Cheese in the Trap before) but rather than feeling sad with her when she cried (near the end) I was just impressed. I usually don't like the cryings in dramas also so seeing Lee Dong Wook always with teary eyes/crying was kind of hard for me but he did a good job! I also often find the main female lead annoying but she was okay.
Music:
I think Goblin wouldn't have been that great without this OST. Seriously, the music in the drama was just perfect. All the songs were just beautiful. If the music wasn't that good, I think I would have rated the drama 7.5 instead of 8.5.
Rewatch value:
I would probably not rewatch it, or I would skip some parts. The episodes are unnecessarily long.
So why do I think Goblin is overrated?
- There are tons of flashbacks and they are ALWAYS the SAME!!! That was SOOOO annoying! I hate when they do that in dramas. Like they would put the same flashback twice in the same episode and in almost episode... And for what? We didn't forget that happened so why? This is why the episodes are long but it is just long of flashback I think... It could have been maybe 10 minutes shorter if it wasn't for that...
- Then, that wouldn't really affect the rating but it kind of annoyed me to some point.. The product placement here it just too strong. So we can see it everywhere and in every drama but usually it's more subtle than that. They were literally saying: eat SUBWAY and your life will be better. (or something like that). I understand that they needed money to have that good quality in the scenes but come on...
- Then I feel like the story/plot could have been better used... It is kind of a waste of the characters I think. And I wanted to know more about the deities.
So yeah, I'm happy I watched it but I wished the realization of the drama and the use of the characters would have been better handled. When I finished the drama I had a bitter feeling. I enjoyed it and really liked it but I felt like the potential was a bit wasted. So I think there are many more stuff to talk about regarding that drama but I'll just stop here :)
Anyways, Goblin is a drama that need to be seen ! :)

Then about Ji Soo, I just wish he will get the girl in a drama someday and be the main lead, he's a good actor and deserves it !
It's the first time I saw Park Bo Young in a drama and while I usually don't like the main female lead, I liked her a lot.
It was good to see a show with a strong woman ^^ I mean, usually in shows women are weak and are being rescued by men but here she was the one rescuing others and it was refreshing.
I loved Bong Soon's family too. Especially her dad. But yeah, to see that they took the wife beating the husband part quite lightly and joking about it was wrong. Even if they tried to explain it at the end... So, that was the part I didn't like about the DBS's mom.
I liked Baek Tak and the gang's part, that was quite funny. And I enjoyed even more the high schoolers part. I wish we saw them more.
Then the plot with the serial killer was also interesting but I'm disappointed that we don't really know his motives, his background.. Why is he really doing that? What made him become like that? How come did he have that much money?
So, I would say this drama is mixing a lot of different genre especially a thriller plot and a romance comedy part. I feel like they did it good but only in a shallow way. They didn't go deep at all and that for every aspect of the show expect for the romance part. Which is why I wouldn't rate it higher.
However, since it was a more of a funny drama, I wasn't expecting them to go deep I think, I just wanted the drama to be entertaining and it was.
Usually, dramas are funny in the beginning and then it is more and more sad with a lot of obstacle towards the end but here it was different. It was funny from the beginning until the end and that's what I liked in that show.
Of course, there is an exception : episode 13. It was the worst and most cliche episode of the show. I seriously was afraid the remaining episodes would be like that but thankfully they weren't. Seriously this episode doesn't make any sense for me. And, if ever I rewatch the show, I would probably skip it.
I wish we knew more about Min Hyuk's family, and that they went deeper about some characters and part of the show but well they just focused on the funny and romance part. They maybe could have add more episodes (2?) for that but well I still like it that way. I also think a second season could be great too. Maybe not with 16 episodes but well, I would watch it for sure.
The music in Strong Woman DBS is good, not great, but good. In the first episodes, I couldn't remember any songs from the show but eventually I did. The music was cute, refreshing like the drama. It suited it well.
So, I would say that you should watch it if you want to watch a funny drama that you are ready to not take seriously and just enjoy without thinking too much.
