The lead actors of the legendary drama '쓸쓸하고 찬란하神-도깨비' (hereinafter 'Goblin') have reunited after 10 years. Actors Gong Yoo, Lee Dongwook, Kim Go-eun and Yoon In-na embark on a special trip to Gangneung that premieres today.
The tvN 20th anniversary edition 'Together and brilliant - Goblin 10th anniversary trip' (directed by Hwang Da-won, hereinafter 'Goblin 10th anniversary trip'), which premieres today (the 4th) at 9:10 p.m., is a special program planned to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the broadcast of the drama 'Goblin'. While inheriting the deep lingering impression of 'Goblin', still considered a life-defining work by many viewers, we picked four must-watch points ahead of the first broadcast.
- Reunion at Jumunjin breakwater after 10 years… Kim Go-eun sparks 'memory recall'
The decisive behind-the-scenes story that made this 'Goblin 10th anniversary trip' possible will be revealed in the first broadcast. At a concert last November, Gong Yoo, Lee Dongwook and Kim Go-eun met and discussed meaningful ways to commemorate the 10th anniversary of 'Goblin'. Gong Yoo and Lee Dongwook confessed, "Kim Go-eun first suggested, 'To celebrate the 10th anniversary, wouldn't it be fun if the four of us traveled together or did something together?' " confirming the youngest's exceptional initiative and affection.
In that broadcast, the four actors first visit the drama's symbolic location, the Jumunjin breakwater in Gangneung, opening the door to their full journey. Not only will there be a moving reenactment of the memorable scene when Gong Yoo and Kim Go-eun meet again after 10 years, but there will also be a reinterpretation of Lee Dongwook and Yoon In-na's "Peach couple" chemistry, stimulating excitement once more. In addition, the "Kkaebi house" decorated with props from the work, such as the red scarf and buckwheat flowers, appears to evoke the emotions of that time.
- Even after 10 years, 'true-friend chemistry' explodes… power J Gong Yoo → youngest charm Kim Go-eun
The unchanged real-life 'true-friend chemistry' of the four actors over time is the program's biggest anticipation point. From the affectionate and considerate power J (planner type) Gong Yoo leading the 10th anniversary trip, to the seemingly indifferent but caring Lee Dongwook, the playful youngest charm emitted by Kim Go-eun, and Yoon In-na, who shines as the household's caretaker with a sunny presence, the actors' real charms that were previously unknown will be revealed in detail.
From the start of the trip, the travelogue promises playful high-energy moments with Kim Go-eun and Yoon In-na teasing and controlling the older brothers, and Gong Yoo and Lee Dongwook tolerating the younger ones' antics while bickering. Kim Go-eun raised expectations by saying, "There is a chemistry that only comes out when the four of us are together, but we never had an opportunity to show it anywhere. We wanted to leave a relationship that would be a pity if only we knew about it."
- "I am really sorry" Yoon In-na's revelations that flustered Lee Dongwook… first-time behind-the-scenes disclosure
Hidden episodes from the drama that could not be heard anywhere until now will also be revealed for the first time. The legendary 'scallion runway' scene between Goblin Kim Shin and the grim reaper that caused a huge sensation, as well as the beautiful kissing scene between Kim Shin and Eun-tak in the buckwheat flower field, and other reversal backstories of the drama's memorable scenes are unveiled.
Also, behind-the-scenes talk about the actors' intense first meetings unfolds. In particular, Yoon In-na's surprise revelations, which made Lee Dongwook sweat profusely, are previewed and attract attention. What is the real story behind Lee Dongwook repeatedly saying, "I am really sorry," and the historic talk feast that laid waste to the set draws interest.
