Description
What lies in worlds beyond our own? Is it a bright light and then… nothingness? Or is it another land populated with gorgeous beauty and eldritch horror beyond our recognition? General Hwee-un falls in battle, leaving behind his unspoken love and a life unlived and awakens in a… forest? Malevolent spirits and demons vie for his life until a handsome goblin whisks him away to the Goblin Village and into the court of the Goblin King. Whatever life may exist in the beyond, death is only the beginning.

The art is absolutely gorgeous and fortunately, the plot and pacing are good too, so this isn't a series where the art is wasted on the story.
So far, there's only 1 season and it leaves more things unresolved and doesn't answer much. Story basically follows Hwee-Un (pretty sure he's a normal human) when he dies on the battlefield and transmigrates into a mysterious body of unknown origin and power in the middle of the woods, where he's soon found by a goblin.
As for who the ML is...
Definite recommendation for any BL lover.

Part of the plot deals with figuring out who Un (calling himself Soha) transmigrated into and what secrets his new body holds. Another part of the plot is with the issue of the goblin king and his connection with Un (btw, this isn't a transmigrated into a new world story; it's more like a muggle finds out about the secret magic world story).
As for who the ML is...
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
We don't really know 100% for sure yet, but my guess (and I'm about 90% on this considering the story's flow but it's subject to change if the story changes direction) that it's the goblin king (the one in the mask). He's Un's former lover before Un died, and has hidden the goblin side of himself from Un and part of the plot goes further into his story as well.
The other potential ML is the goblin who found and is mostly taking care of Un in his new body. He is also a close friend of the goblin king, as well as his general.
