Man, Tale of Gumiho is starting to piss me off. So much potential, a great cast, and the plot developments are wildly frustrating. Imoogi (who I shall call Bowl-cut Baddie from now on) is wasting Lee Tae Ri because I … Continue reading

All the early feels that Tale of Gumiho could be harnessing all the good bits of Goblin and Hotel Del Luna feel apart pretty early on from lack of OTP chemistry and failure to write interesting vignettes to surround the … Continue reading
It’s midway point for tvN fantasy drama Tale of Gumiho and the reason for my continuing into the second half is for the supporting leads Kim Bum and Kim Yong Ji. I even love that theirs is a “family/friend” type … Continue reading
The ratings have been dropping for four consecutive episodes of Tale of Gumiho (Tale of the Nine-tailed) and that’s not a good sign since it’s only episode 7. But I totally understand why and while I will probably watch this … Continue reading

I’ve been snarking on the promo posters for tvN fantasy drama Tale of Gumiho (Take of the Nine-Tailed) so it’s a nice change of opinion to be pleasantly surprised by the latest preview released by the network. It’s less purposefully … Continue reading
I’m getting more and more disenchanted with what to expect in upcoming tvN drama Tale of Gumiho. I just…..really don’t like the sleazy-leaning vibe it’s going for with both male leads playing gumihos in Lee Dong Wook and Kim Bum. … Continue reading
I don’t know why but I totally get the Korean version of Twilight vibes from upcoming tvN drama Tale of Gumiho. From the posters to the styling of male lead Lee Dong Wook like a modern day vampire/gumiho hybrid, the … Continue reading
I don’t know when we’re seeing the new dramas premiere as basically all K-drama filming has been halted now due to the sudden resurgence of COVID-19 in South Korea. With that said, anything new feels even more special and tvN … Continue reading
