The first time I watched a popular drama because of curiosity, it was also directed at TVN's signboard, but even the first and second episodes had to be watched with a little patience. The story is scattered, the protagonist has no reason for the ups and downs of many emotions, and the background of the story is also very vague, which makes people confused. Chi Eun-joo is not bad even though he has good grades, does he always have to face the attacks of scheming bitches just because he can see ghosts? Teachers don't know why they always attack such a simple and beautiful student with good grades. Wouldn't normal students with good grades be protected in every possible way? The character of the heroine Cinderella is too far-fetched. After the appearance of the ghost, the two fell in love with each other inexplicably. As for the confirmation of their respective identities, they can last for several episodes if they are not pretty... It's very casual. This sword is also, it will be pulled for a while and then it will not be pulled out, and it will not be pulled out for a while. Until the eighth episode, the relationship between the messenger of hell and the ghost has a clue, and the mother-in-law of the three gods tells the fate of the ghost and the ghost bride. I felt the ingenuity of the screenwriter under the theme of "destiny":
The fate of the ghost bride is to draw a sword for the ghosts, so she will continue to encounter unexpected events if she fails to complete this task; the fate of the ghosts is to complete the road that she failed to reach the emperor many years ago, and convey the will of the previous emperor, and use the original plan to use it. Come to kill Park Zhongyuan, but now the sword inserted in his chest completes the task of Qingjun's side; Jin Shan's destiny is to fall in love with Wang Li and protect Wang Li; Wang Li's destiny is to eliminate the misunderstanding of people around him and life 900 years ago , to fall in love with life again. In short, Jin Xin, Jin Shan and Wang Li's entanglements many years ago had the opportunity to be reorganized due to the appearance of the ghost bride, which was also their fateful meeting.
But what was not expected was that the love between the ghost and the ghost bride changed the fate, or in other words, the human will changed the fate. The ghost did not choose to turn into nothingness, but chose to wait for the reunion with the bride in a place where the gods do not want to stay. Chance. After walking in the vast desert for 9 years, he finally returned to the world under a call from Chi Enzhuo. Although Enzhuo still died at the age of 29, but she did not drink Mengpo soup and finally waited for the reunion with ghosts after reincarnation. As for Wang Li and Jin Shan, they finally waited for a good relationship after reincarnation. .
Everyone says that Korean dramas often leave mistakes at the end, so Goblin is probably one of them. Like the beginning of the ghost, there are also a lot of hasty plot ties at the end: Why was Jin Xin able to summon Jin Xin in the ninth year after the ghost left? Because of the contract? For blowing out a candle? Why didn't the contract work before then? The part of Eunjo's memory recovery was also hastily passed. The pair of Jin Shan and Wang Li is also the same. Jin Shan does not want to recognize Wang Li, but it can be understood that it is because he cannot forgive his fault, so why does he even pretend not to know his brother? In short, in the end, it was forced to have a happy ending in many cases that were not explained clearly.
Although there are still quite a few things that can be admired about ghosts, such as the beautiful pictures, there are many plots that make girls feel overwhelmed, such as two uncles bickering daily; but there are too many flaws, a bit sorry for the strong lineup and the expectations of the masses. It may be that the subject matter that is praised at the beginning is novel and extensive, but in the end it becomes a heavy burden. There are too many pits buried in the front to justify it.
I heard that "Goblin" has set the highest average viewership record for a single-episode TV series in tvN's history, but in fact, the quality and attention don't match at all. It's a bit incomprehensible. Bar.
