tvN’s “Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938” has revealed more exciting stills of its cast!

Starring Lee Dong Wook, Jo Bo Ah, and Kim Bum, “Tale of the Nine-Tailed,” which aired at the end of 2020, tells the story of the male gumiho (a mythical nine-tailed fox) Yi Yeon (Lee Dong Wook) in a modern era. Although Yi Yeon found a happy ending with Nam Ji Ah (Jo Bo Ah) in Season 1, he will get swept up in an unexpected incident and get summoned to the year of 1938. The new season will depict Yi Yeon’s desperate struggle to return to present day where all the people precious to him are.

In addition to the main cast, various supporting characters will add strength to the story.

Hwang Hee returns as the gumiho Koo Shin Joo, a loyal friend of Yi Yeon that has been by his side for centuries. By chance, he also gets swept into the year 1938, alone and lost. His journey back to his beloved friend Yi Yeon will be one laden with light-hearted humor and somewhat fondly pitiful. It will also be interesting to see how he molds in line with his new surroundings.

As for Kim Yong Ji, she transforms into Seonwoo Eun Ho, an undercover freedom fighter. As a journalist at Seonwoo Il Bo, she gets caught up with Yi Yeon and his crew by first being a witness then an active actor. She receives special attention from Koo Shin Joo because although she’s a different person, she looks exactly like Koo Yu Ri from the first season. Her narrative will provide relatable relief as she is the only human character.

Also returning for the second season is Kim Jung Nan, who will be playing Taluipa, the owner of the Afterlife Immigration Office. As the older sister of the king of the underworld, Taluipa has a long and deep history with Yi Yeon. Not only that, she is the one that sent Yi Yeon to 1938. By her side is her husband Hyun Ui Ong, played by Ahn Kil Kang. While he is still the ever subservient partner, he jumps into the scene of freedom fighting despite his wife’s warnings against it. The two’s chemistry is expected to play a big role in leading the compelling plot.
