Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 is the sequel to Tale of the Nine-Tailed and fans of Lee Dong-wook are super excited to see him playing the gumiho we all love, again!
In Tale of the Nine-Tailed (Season 1), Lee Yeon (played by Lee Dong-Wook, “Bad and Crazy”) is a 1000-years-old Gumiho. Having to live 1,000 years without the woman you love is a punishment. He hopes this punishment will end one day when he finally meets her again. According to legend, the Gumiho has to wait for a thousand years to turn into a human being. But if he finds the woman and they can be together, a thousand years was worth the wait.
However, it's not so simple to live for 10 centuries, find the woman you love, and live happily forever after, when you have two enemies that try to stop it from happening:
- an angry kid brother who feels that his big brother forsook him; and
- an evil serpent beast who has “issues”.
Both enemies have their reasons for wanting REVENGE!
It’s a challenge. But hey! Love conquers all. Right?
