• Super excited for this drama, think will be my new obsession?

  • But it was nothing special, perhaps your standard is low.

    • And who's and what kind of standards are we talking here. Yours?? Given that you began by insulting others peoples taste just because you don't agree with their opinion of the drama. I said that reflect more on you as a person than this drama's quality. However, to each it's own, right?

  • I think everyone has the right to like or not like a drama, for those individuals that dont like a drama the choice is very simple, watch the drama you like and let others enjoy what they are watching the drama they like. There has been many movies, dramas that I have not like or has not called me to watch it, and I did not watched or currently not watching. There are a few drama currently on air that many people like but for some reason they dont call me and that is okay. That is why we have choices and the freedom to pick and choose.

• 2016 is really the year of hit dramas.

  Loved the first episode! Gong Yoo and LDW were sizzling hot.

  • LDW was hot??? How come???

• I'm only halfway through and OMG it's so, so good. It's not even over and I want to watch the first episode again!!! It's such an experience, very set apart from 99% of kdramas. It deserves the ratings and if it stays this good or even gets better, I can see the ratings getting insane.

  Also I can't express how wonderful it is to see Gong Yoo in a kdrama. I'm so excited every single time he's on screen!!

  • I am definitely going to watch the first ep again!

• Episode 1 had me since the beggining sequence. I believe there will be a lot of squeeing on this end

• It was like I was watching a movie. The Cinematography is insanely beautiful and the music was just right. Can't wait to see we're this show will take us.

  • This is terribly frustrating. Not nice.

• yay for the ratings- thats the first thg i google AGB nielsen page for cable.
  tvN ends 2016 with the best yet from Goblin.
  Congrats to cast and crew of Goblin but most of all hope the show continues to go well both plot wise, writing and editing.

• I normally have allergic with anything Gong Yoo but surprisingly, I like him here. But KGE really annoyed me with her over the top aegyo. Again like LOTBS, i like the goryeo portion but not so much the present day story.

• Kim Eun Sook is really invicible. I am wondering the highest rating debut is because of KES or Gong Yoo returning to dramaland?

  • Of course gong yoo lol
    kes depend on big name lol

    • Whatever, I was disappointed.

  • It's a lot of things. Yes, 6% is great, but this is TVN's most popular timeslot and 4-5% debuts are normal. KES also just came off a megahit drama and Gong Yoo did as well, though in a movie. LDW is also popular and it has a lot of buzz. Plus PD Lee deserves a lot of credit for the beautiful first episode. I don't think you can give credit to just one person.

    • I mean 3-4% debut, not 4-5%. Those happen too, but it's rarer. Still, the best sign for this drama is good word of mouth, which will go a long way to improving ratings in the future.

    • I still have a chance for this.because it broadcasts in tvn.tvn doesnt have many bad drama

• Yaaaas! The pilot was EVERYTHING! The cinematography, the music, and 2 Daddy for the price of one! Man I was a puddle by the end of the episode...

  • No, it's not nice.but it was nothing new, nothing special

• Somebody mentioned it and i also feel the same way : this drama feels like a MOVIE! The fast paced intro and background story, and the music and special effects,I was overwhelmed in a nice way. Nice acting by the all especially GY and LDW
