tvN’s upcoming drama “Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938” has dropped new eye-catching character posters!
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 the newly released posters, the four main characters each hold an object that is meaningful to them. The first poster features nine-tailed fox Yi Yeon with a Winchester rifle in his hands. The text that reads, “You’re baffled? I understand. Because that’s exactly how I feel right now,” shows his emotional state after being dragged back to 1938, leaving his loved ones behind.
“Mountain Goddess of the West” Ryu Hong Joo (Kim So Yeon) overwhelms viewers with her elegant looks in a white dress and fancy accessories. She hands a ring to someone saying, “Honey, you came.” Viewers are curious to find out whether Hong Joo, who has been longing for Yi Yeon for hundreds of years, will be able to get his response this time.
Half-gumiho Yi Rang (Kim Bum) greets Yi Yeon by saying chillingly, “Brother, you aren’t dead yet?” 1938 is the time Yi Rang’s misunderstanding about his elder brother Yi Yeon has yet to be resolved, so the hatred and rebelliousness in his eyes look familiar. The rugged ax in his right hand contrasts with his elegant and well-fitted three-piece suit.
Yi Yeon’s longtime friend and former “Mountain God of the North” Cheon Moo Young (Ryu Kyung Soo) exudes mysterious vibes. The appearance of Moo Young where light is cast only on half of his face resembles the mask in his hand. He declares an all-out war against Yi Yeon, saying, “I will take my revenge until I take away everything that he cherishes.” Curiosity is raised for the story hidden behind the two.
“Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938” premieres on May 6 at 9:20 p.m. KST as the follow-up to “Pandora: Beneath the Paradise.”
