Short explanation, after first viewing. The train takes the Seoul - Mukyeong route. This is indicated because one of the victims has a train ticket dated 2020 with this route. As the railway tracks are closed since 2015, we can immediately guess that the victim comes from another world, like the other victims. We quickly learn that they are dooplegangers, since one of the victims is still alive in our world. With the same fingerprints. Before arriving at Mukyeong station, there's a strange area. I'll call it the "twilight zone". At this place, there's a junction between our world and a parallel universe. This junction is only activated when a train arrives from the other dimension. And the only way to get from one universe to the other is to be on the train. The signal lights become active again. The train appears from nowhere in this place. Often, the train stops because of the signal lights. Passengers on the train from the other world have no reason to notice anything. For them, it is just the usual place where the train regularly stops because of the signage. The criminal takes advantage of this by throwing bodies. We can assume that he knows that in this place he is in another dimension and can easily get rid of his victims. Bad luck, this criminal is the hero's doopleganger... Worse, he kills the hero's ex-fiancée. But we can assume that later on, the hero will meet the doopleganger of his fiancée, and may have the opportunity to succeed in his failed love story. When the train leaves the twilight zone, of course, it returns to its original dimension. At the end of episode 2, we see the train arriving in a station. I guess it's the Mukyeong station, located just a few kilometers away. But it is of course the station of the other world. One of the shots in the drama quickly shows the state of the two stations, one is rectangular, the other has a rounded ceiling.
Why does the chief of police look so much like the D.A.? They could have chosen another random ajumma during the…
The psychiatrist look like the D.A. too.... arrrghhhh whhhhy ?!! Why all women look like the same in this drama ? Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?§§N?§???§??.??.!!!,?.

Or maybe not... aaggggh... Wake up, drama ! You have only 12 episodes, here it drag on stupids lies making lies worse than truth, where is this damn train ? Come on, bring the train into FL house and move on !
Episode 2, first minute: If I need to hunt rats in my basement, I should use the hero instead of a cat, because obviously he has better reflexes than a cat. ^^
Whoo! I'm hanging on to the drama. First of all, I really like trains and railroads, it helps. The rhythm is slow, but pretty good in terms of the atmosphere that's recreated. Wonderful photography based on yellow, green, ochre, restoring the colors of the tracks and old trains. The drama has a twilight zone side, or lovecraft , even. I guess my only possibility now is to watch episode 2. The life of a drama lover is so difficult... T T
Haha I just started it too and same, poor kitty :(
A cat run over by a car happens, but run over by a train, I doubt it. Maybe the train came out of nowhere without vibrating on the tracks? But even in that case, the police officer's later reply is not credible. He says he's seen a lot of cats run over by trains. Nowhere, there's no such thing. A cat on a railway track will feel the vibrations, it can hardly be surprised. Besides, cats have good reflexes. I take that as a scenario facility. It's just to convey the information that the cat was certainly run over by a train. If I had had to write this dialogue, I would have shot it more like this: COP - Looks like a dead cat run over by a car. I've seen a lot of dead cats that look like that. HERO - A car? In here? On a railroad track? COP - (sarcastically) There are sometimes crazy people like you who drive on a railway... HERO - More like he was hit by a train, that cat. COP - Ah ah ah! Have you often seen cats hit by a train? On a disused track on top of that? HERO - It closed in 2015. HERO - (addresses the forensic scientist) Yah! Find out when that cat died!
The only good thing about "goblin" are the scenes where actress Kim So Hyun appears. The rest don't even deserve the energy typed on the keyboard to describe how bad it is.
I never watched any Reply drama, as I don't like "slice of life" dramas. But your review make me doubt. What is the best "reply" drama among the 3 ones ?
You know when you’re doing a puzzle and you find a piece you *swear* goes with another piece, but as soon as…
Honestly, Kim Eun Sook tried to write a drama in the style of Song Jae-Jung. Only... she's incapable of it to the last degree. That's why TKEM is such a huge fiasco.

I just do a quick comment after first minute of the drama :
SHAME! They kill the cat !!! :-D
