Gong Yoo, Kim Go-eun, Lee Dong-wook, and Yoo In-na Reunite in Gangneung for Goblin 10th Anniversary

The protagonists of the tvN drama 'Guardian: The Lonely and Great God' gathered in one place to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its broadcast.

As part of the 'tvN 20th Anniversary Edition' commemorating the network's 20th year, tvN planned a special variety program titled 'Shining Because We Are Together - Goblin 10th Anniversary Trip' and released the first teaser on the 22nd to provide a glimpse of the program's atmosphere.

The special broadcast features all the key protagonists who led the work, including actors Gong Yoo, Lee Dong-wook, Kim Go-eun, and Yoo In-na.

The four will travel together to Gangneung, Gangwon-do, which served as the main stage and symbolic space of the drama, to revisit behind-the-scenes stories they couldn't share over the past 10 years, their current news, and the meaning the work left on their respective acting careers.

In particular, the scene where they revisit the Jumunjin Breakwater in Gangneung, where Ji Eun-tak (Kim Go-eun) first summoned the Goblin Kim Shin (Gong Yoo), draws significant attention. It is a representative tourist attraction of 'Goblin,' where the protagonist Gong Yoo held an umbrella for Kim Go-eun and handed her buckwheat flowers, creating sad and romantic iconic scenes.

On-site, the red scarf and a bouquet of buckwheat flowers—props symbolizing the drama—reappeared to recreate the past narrative. Lee Dong-wook and Yoo In-na, referred to as the 'Pitch Couple,' reminisced about the past, saying, "Do you remember? This is the color of the sea from 'Goblin.'" Gong Yoo and Kim Go-eun also shared their feelings while walking along the white sand beach, saying, "It's really been 10 years. It feels strange."

Aired in 2016, 'Goblin' left a significant mark in Korean drama history by becoming the first cable TV program to surpass a 20% national viewership rating.

It was evaluated to have captured both popularity and artistic quality, receiving praise for writer Kim Eun-sook's meticulous worldview and dialogue, director Lee Eung-bok's mise-en-scène, and the micro-direction placed in the right spots. Additionally, the music releases (OST) exerted strong influence across popular culture, with several tracks staying at the top of the music charts for long periods.

'Goblin 10th Anniversary Trip' will air its first episode on Saturday, July 4, at 9:10 PM.
