"Goblin," also known as "Guardian: The Lonely and Great God," will release a special episode on tvN on Saturday, Jan. 14.
Originally, "Goblin" was supposed to end midway through the show in episode 13, but a lot of fans have been asking questions that the creators felt they needed to answer. With this, a special 14th episode will be released.
According to the network, episode 14 will help viewers understand what is going on with the Korean drama. "'Goblin' will reach a turning point in the storyline in the 13th episode. Being a combination of multiple genres such as tales of fantasy, romance, life and death, we have received a variety of speculative guesses and opinions. We want to ensure our viewers are able to easily enjoy the rest of the episodes, so we will be releasing a special episode on the 14th, divided into two parts, encompassing the knotty relationships between the characters; they will foreshadow the rest of the episodes in an interesting way."
Meanwhile, IBTimes is clarifying that the special episode will only be aired on the timeslot for episode 14. But the actual 14th episode will be released next Friday, Jan. 20.
In other news, episode 13 was filled with shocking twists and surprises.
