Tale of the Nine Tailed – Series Overview

A magical fantasy-melodrama starring a male gumiho.

Until now, most of the gumiho that appeared in dramas
were endearing female gumiho.

But the star of this drama is a male gumiho.
With an inhumanly beautiful face that makes you want to offer up your liver in a heartbeat
this pure and noble man is waiting for one woman alone.

Gumiho Lee Yeon will become the epitome of Asian fantasy
women dream about.

The folklore characters have arrived! In modern guise!

What if your beautiful fiancée
was none other than the Yeou Nui of lore?

What if the culprit who brought on the foul Three Calamities
was living next door?

Let’s imagine that the characters of lore
are living in 2020 Korea in human form.
‘Recollection’ and ‘Identification’ are about to be the keywords of the age.

Even living in a high-tech digital world,
we still pursue as-yet unveiled mysteries
and are fascinated by them.

This drama will summon the Korean yogwe
of lore and legend
and bring them before us now.

A new action drama beyond the human scope

Heroes, soldiers, detectives. The subject of all these action shows
has always been human.

This drama will deal with action beyond the human scope:
fights between yogwe.

Using new stunt and CG sequences,
we’ll show you a unique sort of visual action never seen before.

n.b. I know, it sounds strange in English. There’s a reason promotional text is (usually) practically re-written from the ground up when translated.

You can find the original Korean on tvN’s official website here.
