Feedback from Korean netizens from OSEN via Nate

1. [+1,449, -366] I really don't like her, so choose Kim Tae Ri one more time

2. [+1,102, -254] ㅠㅠ but the female lead ...

3. [+808, -159] Ah ... I understand

4. [+115, -16] Why does Kim Eun Sook like Kim Go Eun so much? How can she do this with the male lead like Gong Yoo and Lee Min Ho?

5. [+109, -23] So the chemical reaction will get worse

6. [+108, -14] Both don't match

7. [+106, -15] I want to see other female lead once

8. [+73, -15] Kim Go Eun is charming but ... I don't see any chemical reaction between her and Lee Min Ho

9. [+65, -56] I really look forward to Kim Go Eun, it doesn't match with the male lead

10. [+63, -38] Do you remember when you think 'Goblins' will fail because of the female lead? ㅋㅋㅋ But her acting is very good and the movie is appreciated by viewers. I really think that Lee Min Ho is not suitable for this role. Both are similar in acting skills, so why is Kim Go Eun being flop while he is enthusiastically supported? That's because the male actors have many female fans, they will assume that the film failed even if the heroine tried hard to continue to criticize.

11. [+60, -18] I think the female lead is a bit lacking in "Goblin" but not the writer really likes her. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the drama

12. [+50, -18] Ah .. I gave up watching "Golbin" because of her, I guess I'll have to skip this drama too

Feedback from Korean viewers on Naver:

1. [+1,254, -391] Hul ... why is Kim Go Eun ... ㅠ. ㅠ I really expect others to be female leads

2. [+1.000, -584] Hul ... does he have a good relationship? Or a great fandom? Or good acting skills? Someone explained this to me ... even she's not pretty anymore

3. [+583, -157] I didn't expect anything for male or female

4. [+598, -195] I want writer Kim Eun Sook to work with Kim Jae Wook again

5. [+438, -158] Female lead ...

6. [+215, -60] Well ... every time I see the movie "The Fairy" is mentioned, I always think that it will definitely be a legendary movie, a bigger kick if the female lead is another person

7. [+181, -34] I quit "Goblin" because of the heroine's acting depressed, now I have to deal with her wailing voice again

8. [+122, -19] What star attraction or potential do people see in her? ..

9. [+124, -33] Is this really the best thing they can do? I'm disappointed about Kim Eun Sook. I tried to see it because of the male lead in the Goblin, but then I have to take it again?

10. [+96, -5] Please stop choosing the actors I worked with ... I really want to see new actors
