Recent news pertaining to the "Goblin" centers on the notions that Lee Dong Wook was not the first choice to take the role. Moreover, as for the upcoming storyline, the "Train to Busan" star Gong Yoo has been anticipated to prepare himself for gripping and heart-felt scenes.

Given the stunning success of "Goblin" in the small screens, all eyes have turned towards Lee Dong Wook and Gong Yoo. Both stars managed to amplify their roles and ensure that each episode is well taken and done. Meanwhile, despite the rising notions for the segment, there has been no word of confirmation that supports the idea that Lee Dong Wook was not the first choice.

However, reports from Soompi shared that no matter what scene he's in, the grim reaper has chemistry with any character from the "Goblin" and whether it's his bromance with Gong Yoo, the cute friendship with Kim Go Eun, or his bashful interactions with Yoo In Na, viewers are always entertained when Lee Dong Wook is onscreen.

Moreover, while the public is well aware that "Goblin" screenwriter, Kim Eun Sook, spent five years trying to cast Gong Yoo in one of her dramas, it is not the case for Lee Dong Wook and as a matter of fact, Lee Dong Wook had to fight until the end to receive the role of the grim reaper, reports the same post.

ASZ also reported that many changes are expected to occur in the latter episodes of the "Goblin," and as for the notions on the rise, that remains unknown and unverified.For the fans and followers of the series, every detail coming out should be taken with a grain of salt in mind.
