The Gumiho Brothers stole the show

"Tale Of The Nine Tailed" is a story of foxes, deities, supernatural beings and of course humans. The mythical nine-tailed fox also known as Gumiho, Lee Yeon (Lee Dong Wook) settling in the city and eradicating supernatural beings that possess a threat to the mortal world. His half brother Lee Rang (Kim Bum) harbours a deep-seated contempt for people. Nam Ji Ah (Jo Bo Ah/Ah Eum) is Lee Yeon's reincarnated love interest , director in a show depicting urban myths. Living as a vet, Gu Shin Ju (Hwang Hee)band assistant of Lee Rang,Ki Yu Ri (Kim Yong Ji) are other two foxes.
The show unfolds Nam Ji Ah trying to find her parents who were missing due to a mysterious car accident. On the journey she meets with the Gumiho brothers and other beings. The past lives and supernatural characters keep coming in their way discovering the truth.
The acting of Lee Dong Wook and Kim Bum was on the spot. Lee Dong Wook always surprised us as supernatural characters. Kim Bum literally stole the show. Lee Rang, was totally different from any other character Kim Bum ever portrayed. The last episode shook the viewers because of his sacrifice. Although we get a hint of his reincarnation.
In the end everyone has a happy ending. Nam Ji Ah and Lee Yeon get married. Gu Shin Ju and Ki Yu Ri are also a happily married couple. Even the snail bride in happy with her reincarnated husband. I hoped that Lee Rang could get a fulfilling happy ending.
Though Lee Yeon says he has turned into a human but we see him using his powers again as a Gumiho. So is it temporary ? Or what he was saying was only a cover?
~So viewers are left with a little bit of mystery to fiddle with as the Gumiho carries goes on.
