Goblin film crew Q&A
One Goblin staff answered questions on his community site yesterday. So, I translated them. [source 1] [source 2]
Q. Is Eun-Tak’s father a god?
A. There is no mention about him in the script.
Q, What is your job? How did you guys come up with the bridge near the Yongdap station? (* the bridge where the Grim reaper met Sunny)
A. I was one of the lighting staff. The location scouting team is in charge of the filming locations.
Q. Why did reincarnated Wang Yeo and Kim Sun forget their previous life?
A. Neither the couple nor Ji Eung-Tak drank the tea of oblivion, but only Eun-Tak could retain her memory. I just guess the writer has some intention in doing so.
Q. Did you join the wrap-up party?
A. Just the first round of the party.
Q. How many hours could you sleep during the filming?
A. Average 3~4 hours a day.
Q. Is there any sequel, spin-off, or movie version? When is the director’s cut going to be released?
A. It depends on the production company and the director.
Q. Are the tombstones in Quebec real? or a composite picture?
A. They are props. We came back to Korea with them. (LOL)
Q, How about the atmosphere of the set?
A. We had enough production budget, so it was more relaxed and more comfortable than other dramas’. TV viewers might feel uncomfortable about its PPL (product placement advertisement). I heard at an early stage that it made approximately 8 billion won (6.8 million USD) only from PPL, but it directly and indirectly gave benefits to us, the film crew.
Q. Is Kim Go-Eun (Eun-Tak) pretty?
Q. She is pretty. It was my first time to work with her, and she is a charming actress.
Q. Why didn’t Yoo In-Na get old when she died?
A. She died at the age of 68. She got transformed into her younger self after entering the tea room.
A. Yes, they already showed the same transformation process with other deceased souls.
Q. The actors look playful in the making films. Did you enjoy the filming? Is there any sensitive moment?
A. It’s not sensitive, but the actors had a really hard time. Mr. Gong Yoo collapsed one time, so we had to quit filming that day. The intense cold weather made actors have a tough time.
*poor dokkaebi and other actors and staffs .__.*
Q. What year did Eun-Tak get reincarnated?
A. It took about 100 years, according to the script.
Q. Goblin was the drama of my life. It reminds me of Doctor Who (UK drama). Did the writer watch Doctor Who or Highlander (1986 American movie)?
A. A film crew like me don’t know about what environment the writer is working in. However, I know the fact that she writes interesting scripts. Me, too. Goblin is the drama of my life.
Q. How was Kim Go-Eun (Eun-Tak) in person?
A. She is cute!! and has a good personality!!
Q, Are the actors OK, off the record?
A. Of course. I can safely say that the funny atmosphere in the making films you can find on the internet is representing the reality.
Q. It had great cinematography. What is the secret? Were there many camera crew or lighting staff?
A. Basically, our filming team has five members in charge of one camera. We had two cameras rolling at the same time, so we had 10 people in one filming team. Our lighting team had 6~8 members including one lighting director. Of course, we need post production with DI work, but the basic filming is the most important work.
Q. Wow, congratulations for the great drama.
A. Thanks. Because of your love, we got a vacation to Phuket as a reward.
Q, I love the reward vacation culture that all the film crew, directors, writers, actors get together. I remember it started with the suggestion of Director Shin Won-Ho (tvN’s Reply 1997, 1994, 1988 series). Have a nice vacation!
A. I’ve already been to Phuket after Signal (ì‹œê·¸ë„ 2016 tvN). So, I’m going to enjoy it.
Q. How much did you guys pre-shoot before the broadcast?
A. The test shooting was on September 1, 2016. We started its first shooting on September 4. The scenes in Canada were shot in early to mid October. I remember we were shooting episode 6 when it started to be broadcast on TV. (December 2, 2016)
Q. The set and Mise En Scene look expensive. Could you explain about it roughly?
A. I don’t know about the set because the art team is in charge of it. They are the same members as those in charge of The Descendants of the Sun (íƒœì–‘ì˜ í›„ì˜ˆ 2015 KBS) and Mirror of the Witch (ë§ˆë…€ë³´ê° 2016 JTBC).
Q. Is there any possibility to make a spin-off with the pichi couple in the future? (* Korean viewers call Grim Reaper and Sunny as Pichi couple, because his hat looks like Pizza hut logo and she runs a chicken restaurant. In addition, his identity was revealed by the branch of peach blossom.)
A. I have nothing to do with the production company (Hwa&dam pictures). It entirely depends on the writer.
Q. Can you reveal some impressive deleted scenes?
A. Frankly speaking, we didn’t shoot scenes in order of the script. So, we often realized “Oh, it was that scene!†after watching TV. So I don’t know exactly what was deleted.
Q. Does the Blu-ray contain some lost scenes? If so, what kind of scenes?
A. Unless you are a data manger or a scripter, most film crew are not able to know what scenes were deleted. As the final day got approached, few crew could get their sanity.
Q. Isn’t containing the deleted scenes a must to sell the blu-ray? There are many people who bought it for the supplements.
A. I’m just a film crew, so I have no rights to say in that regards. It depends on the production company.
Q. Is it true that you guys shot the ending in advance?
A. Yes, we shot the ending while filming in Canada in October. The ending was predetermined. The biggest reason why we didn’t pre-produce this drama is that the writer hoped to communicate with the viewers’ responses during the broadcast. I heard she had a hard time with The descendants of the Sun (íƒœì–‘ì˜ í›„ì˜ˆ 2016 KBS) because it was 100% pre-produced. (* She said in an interview that she felt something lacking in pre-produced drama)
Q. There is a rumor that Mr. Goblin (Gong Yoo) will get married as soon as finishing this drama. Is it true?
A. No way. (LOL)
Q. I enjoyed Signal (2016 tvN), too. Any sequel? And Goblin 2?
A. A film crew like me can’t overstep the writer’s authority. I can’t help but mention “I have no ideaâ€. Anyways, Kim Eun-Hee(Signal’s writer)’s next historical drama project will be produced by the same company (A-Story) which produced Signal. I don’t know anything beside it.
Q. Goblin is the drama of my life. Do you join the blu-ray production? I’m wondering about the director’s cut. I already ordered it.
A. I don’t. I’m just a film crew.
