So my first thought was this pairing isn’t working for me. But then I saw that it is adapted from a C-drama and that the set up is older woman-young man then I guess this casting makes sense.

I think the gumiho and human romance K-drama has hit double digits or at least close enough with the addition next month of SBS drama No Tail to Tell (Human From Today). I can count watching at least half a dozen myself and there are smatterings of it built into other dramas, but this Korean folklore and superstitious myth of … Continue reading →
I did a double take when I saw this casting news because both stars are names I’ve not seen in awhile in recent year K-dramas. This is totally an old school casting and in a sports drama to boot, feels like it could be attempting another Hot Stove League. News reports say that Kim Rae Won and UEE have been … Continue reading →
I’m so glad this drama is on Netflix, or even cable would be okay. As long as its not on terrestrial television in South Korea at least I can tune out the howls of outrage from any K-netizen that wants to protest less than perfect Kim Sun Ho back on the small screen.

The nine-tailed fox (gumiho) and human romance is becoming as ubiquitous a K-drama set up as the chaebol guy and plucky poor girl scenario. Not complaining but it does mean each coupling has to have either an unique twist or amazing chemistry between the leads to give it a differentiating and worth watching factor.
