This is as quirky as it gets, and every episode, (except for #8), is just wonderful.

Agreed!

This might be the sweetest and most pure drama I've ever seen. I loved it from beginning to end.

Feel free not to watch it then! DAMN.

Hey, I get that. Watch what makes you happy, for sure. But for many of us, these stories make us happy too.

It DOES match the world we live in - that's why we like it. It helps explain the shitty nature of the world using fantastical elements. Yes, please stick to whatever you like, and give those of us who like what we like a break from your negative comments every once in a while.

Some of us love dystopian scenarios, fantasy and science fiction. I also love romance and mysteries but there's a very rich tradition of making meaning out of past and current events and circumstances through dystopian novels, films, and dramas.
We don't all have to like the same things, thank goodness, but many of us need that kind of storytelling and characterization sometimes. You won't watch any of it, obviously, so why all of the negativity? Just let it be and watch what you want to watch.

I feel like this comment needs to be said louder....for the people in the back who don't seem to get it. :-)

YES!! You should post this comment over on the Squid Game article. MDL should just change its name to "Bitch About Netflix All the Fucking Time" since that seems to be all the comments are about anymore.

Korean audiences like dark and edgy too.

She might just be my new favorite Chinese actor - she's amazing!

You literally say the same thing every time you comment - you might need a new script

It’s reflective of the times we’re in.

Have you seen all of the ones I listed? I'm just curious. And if so, did you have the same reaction?

And Goblin's OST affected me so much that all I have to hear is the first three bars of "And I'm Here" and I immediately tear up.

Reply 1988 made me ugly cry because it was so beautifully written, and so touching, and so real.

I cried so hard at two particular scenes in Goblin that each time I lost my breath for a bit and got a pounding headache. There are many, many other dramas that I've cried during but nothing at quite that level. I was emotionally spent for a period of time afterwards. (I'm actually surprised that I'm not seeing more people referencing Goblin here.)

I also ugly cried (but not quite as hard) during:
Just Between Lovers
Reply 1988 (like ugly-ugly cried)
Alice in Borderland
Orange
HIStory 3: Make Our Days Count
The Red Sleeve
Hotel King
Back to 1989
Tale of the Nine Tailed
Hotel del Luna
Life-Love on the Line (three scenes in particular can still make me tear up just thinking about them)
Thirty But Seventeen
You Are My Destiny
Hometown Cha Cha Cha
Todome no Kiss
Romance is a Bonus Book
Melo is My Nature
Chicago Typewriter
Go Ahead
Queen for Seven Days
Come and Hug Me

WOW...I cry a lot while watching tv! :-) Thanks for the article!

The QUEEN!

More C-dramas like this, please! This was wonderfully refreshing and I'd love to see more dramas get made like this.

Seriously. That's literally what 90% of K-dramas are about, so I think I was just stating the obvious here.
