'Goblin' cast reunites; Gong Yoo suggests melodrama, Kim Go-eun jokes about diets

During a special 10th-anniversary reunion episode of the hit tvN drama 'Goblin,' actor Gong Yoo proposed a surprising genre for a potential future project with his co-stars Kim Go-eun, Yoo In-na, and Lee Dong-wook: a passionate melodrama.

“

If we were to do another project together, I'd want to do a melodrama.

Gong Yoo's imaginative scenario envisioned a complex love quadrangle. He suggested that he and Kim Go-eun would be a married couple, while Lee Dong-wook and Yoo In-na would also be married. However, Gong Yoo's character would also be involved in a romantic entanglement with Yoo In-na's character, leading to a tangled web of relationships.

Lee Dong-wook immediately expressed exhaustion at the thought, sighing, "That sounds exhausting." Gong Yoo himself acknowledged the chaotic nature of his idea, laughing, "This is a completely messy melodrama." Kim Go-eun, however, proposed a different genre entirely, suggesting a drama focused on intense arguments between a long-term couple, emphasizing realistic conflict.

That sounds exhausting.

When Gong Yoo persisted with his melodrama idea, Kim Go-eun humorously revealed her reservations. When asked why she disliked the genre, she candidly replied, "Because I'd have to go on a diet." This unexpected response sent the cast, including Yoo In-na and Lee Dong-wook, into fits of laughter. Kim Go-eun further quipped, "Do you only kiss in a melodrama?" prompting Lee Dong-wook to question if bed scenes were mandatory.

“

I want to try a project where we fight a lot. Fighting with words. I want to capture the realistic arguments of a long-term couple.

Gong Yoo playfully concluded the discussion by joking, "If anyone is interested in producing this, please contact us." The cast's lighthearted banter highlighted their strong chemistry and the enduring popularity of 'Goblin,' even a decade later.
