The OST is also one of the drama's key elements.

The "Goblin" soundtrack features contributions from various artists, with each song harmonizing beautifully with specific scenes.

Notably, Suhyun from Akdong Musician, known for "First Snow," along with the emotional voices of Ailee and Crush, added depth to the drama's emotional impact.

They perfectly conveyed the story and feelings, leaving a lasting impression even after the show ended.
