Korean Mythology: Goblin
Although it’s been about 2 years since Goblin (쓸쓸하고 찬란하神 - 도깨비) was released, it’s still a favourite of mine and still confuses my friends because of some scenes relating to the Korean mythology! So in this post, I’ll be explaining some scenes or characters that may have confused you!
This post isn’t that long so enjoy! And if you have any questions or anything you want to know about Korea’s culture, please let me know! :)
Tumblr media
Grim Reaper
In Korean culture, a name is written in red ink only if you wish for that person to die or if they are dead (I still never write names in red tbh). Korean names all mean something and have their own hanja version. This explains why the Grim Reaper carries around name cards with a person’s name written in red ink and in hanja!
You can also see that the Grim Reaper is always in black; this is because black is the colour which is used to mourn the dead in funerals and also just represents death alongside red. In one of the scenes, Ji Euntak (the goblin bride) is afraid to tell her name to the Grim Reaper. One of the reasons why she was afraid was because Koreans believed that if the Grim Reaper called your name 3 times, you would die! It’s also believed that they don’t have names; hence the reason why they’re all called Reaper Kim.
Tumblr media
The Goddess of Childbirth and Children (삼신할매)
It seems like a lot of people were confused about her character, but she is a goddess of childbirth and children! She protects and looks over children until they’re 10! This is why when ever a child needed help, she was there (she was the taxi driver for the girl, she went to the hospital to look after a sick boy).
Tumblr media
The Goblin
In Korea, they believed that goblins (they look quite different to western goblins) carried around a club and when they hit the ground with it, they could summon anything they wished (usually gold bars).

Do you think they have a large amount of stock for the Official merch (not the LY tour merch) ? Like the army bomb v3, the slogan etc ? Bc i've seen people saying the army bomb v3 hasnt ever run out on all days but the finger ring bomb and the case has been run out, even tho those are also on the official MD list :c i just want the bomb and possibly the slogan but idkkk i dunnoooo europe should be well prepared.. i hope they dont fuck up jgkldsg
i think the army bomb doesn’t run out! it hasn’t for any of the days i’ve attended and they still usually have stock at the end of the shows too but i’m not sure about the slogan ;;
would it be weird if i take my suitcase with me to the merch line ? or have you seen someone else do it? LMAO I cant check in till afternoon and i cant leave my suitcase in the hotel so :( i dont wanna miss merch, but i also dont want to be the only odd one / weird one out with a suitcase LOL BUT is it even allowed to take a suitcase to the merch line, or do you know/think that its forbidden? TT
nope, it wouldn’t be weird! there’s a lot of people who do that lol so no worries! my friend and i were dragging our foldable chairs around lol so it’s not weird or anything, gotta do what you gotta do!

혼자/ Alone
친구야, 날 떠나지 마라. 네가 내 곁에 없을 때 항상 널 기다려. 하나뿐인 순간만 나에게 주면 난 행복하게 될 거야. 너를 위해 난 아무것도 할 거야. 난 죽거나 살 거. 죽이거나 도울 거. 그냥 혼자있게 되고 싶지 않아. ~~~ My friend, don’t leave me. I always wait for you when you are not around. If you give me only one moment, I will be happy. I’ll do anything for you. I will die or live. I will kill or help. I just don’t want to be alone.

속의 소리/ The sounds inside
모든 게 지나가. 나 ��위에 소리 더 커지고 있어. 오랫동안 믿을 만한 말을 찾을 줄 모른다. 내 귀에 이어폰. 그는 나의 속에 깊이 빠지는 걸 돕고 있어. 쉬워지고 좋아지고 속의 소리만 마음에 든 건. ~~~ Everything passes by. The sounds around me are getting louder. For a long time I can’t find  The words I can trust. Earphones in my ears. They’re helping me to fall deep inside myself. It gets easier It gets better I only like the sounds of the inside.
