Not for everybody
Well, I guess I'm the odd one out of the bunch when I say I agree it's not for everybody.The first episode didn't grab me at all. It just seemed like people just watched this drama because of how the characters looked.
I learned real quick that it might have that Disney 'love at first sight' feel and it did but the female character was just twisted because of psychological issues she had with her own father.
I learned enough from the first episode that this isn't my cup of tea.
I also have to stop falling for reviews like this. The minute I see people talk about how good a person looks I just need to steer clear of that. Now don't get me wrong, I'm all for eye candy but come on, it doesn't give a good enough reason to watch.

OMG!!! Superficial to the core!
So I ended up painfully making it through the first episode only to completely stop watching episode 2.The one thing I can't stand is a show basing itself off of someone's looks!!! I felt this bashing all people who aren't up to the handsome or the drop dead gorgeous and beautiful look degrading. Even the synopsis is superficial.
As anyone who has maybe read any of my reviews know is that I immediately stray away from Korean rom-coms because of how superficial and arrogant a character is.
I've watched several Korean dramas with Ahn Se Ha-had to copy and paste cuz I suck at names-and he's a great actor. I felt so bad when I realized they made him out to be short and ugly. How cruel can the writer be?? I don't understand why he took on a role that bashes him cuz of his looks. The main male lead was NOTHING to look at. His mouth looked like botox gone wrong. I'm not saying that to be mean but this guy looked like he had work done on his face. He couldn't even cry right because he couldn't stretch his face to cry.
Here's why I dropped this drama altogether. The second episode picked up the seething factor I had when the first episode ended. The female who was the dead prosecutor who came back to life was angry because the dead guy who came back to life came back handsome and she came back looking like what she looked like. I don't judge females but she was pretty. I hated the attitude the original female prosecutor had. Men lining up just to be with her because of her looks....yeah...I was so done after that.
The story line was all over the place as well. From what I gathered people died and came back with different looks....I don't know the reason behind that but it was enough to make me drop the series.
It's sad because I have dropped around 5 dramas within a month and I have never done that since I've come to watch Korean dramas.

So after seeing those two videos on Youtube I went to watch the first episode.
The story of how Goblin came to be was intriguing and seeing how the Reaper worked had me as well so I became giddy thinking this was going to be an excellent watch.
Man how wrong was I??? The main FL became annoying pretty quick. I was hoping against hope that this wasn't going to be a dimwitted female who will fall in love quickly without having any relationship buildup and there it was....the dimwitted female who quickly falls in love with a guy without having a relationship buildup. It's why I became to hate Korean romance dramas in the first place.
The oozing sappy cliche romances always grate my nerves and I truly steer clear of them. I have, however, watched some Kdramas that had romance in it that was barely tolerable but this one...I felt it was just going to be the same throughout the whole series.
I tried going back to finish the first episode but I just kept pausing and haven't been back since. I can't say anything else about this drama because I barely finished the first episode. From reading other reviews that had the same feelings as me, I don't think I'm missing anything.
