If you’re looking for a show that will make you laugh until you cry because of how illogical and stupid things sound, then Kiss Goblin is definitely something you should watch.
Jokes aside, there’s also a serious side to this show. It explores the depth of the different emotions (sadness, joy, anger, etc.) a human being can feel while also shedding light on how one should control and deal with them.
What does that mean? Read more in our review.
The Plot
Kiss Goblin is a show about a Goblin who wants to turn into a human. But to do so, he must kiss 10 women.
Every time he kisses a woman, he inherits an emotion from her. Moreover, the woman’s memory of the Goblin is erased after the kiss.
However, the path to becoming a human isn’t that simple. Our Goblin named Ban Sook (starred by Bae In-hyuk) is chased by an Exorcist who doesn’t want him to become human.
Above all, he has to process and manage the weight of multiple emotions he has never experienced in his life before.
He also crosses paths with Oh Yeon Ah, his co-worker and our female lead (starred by Jeon Hye-won). She helps the Goblin become human and fight the Exorcist.
She also helps him process his newly acquired emotions. But will this spark emotions between them? Will Yeon Ah start to develop feelings for her new friend?
