Garbage
This drama is full of famous untalented actors who are trying to shove a cliché themed drama down our throats.The main couple has no chemistry whatsoever , their acting skills aren't helping neither . Side couple should've been the main.
The story is so overdone to the point of regurgitating what other authors had invented .
This was such a waste of time , I dragged myself to watching one episode after the other yet no improvement .
This shit show belongs to the trash can with its main leads !
Never recommending to anybody and never watching the actors involved in anything again . What a waste ! Give me back my time ! I want compensation for all the brain cells lost while watching this crap !
Ughhh if I can rate it minus infinite I would . Too bad this option doesn't exist !
Don't make the same mistake and go watch another worthy drama .

I love vampire romances due to the fact that the vampire presents one face, but behind that face is centuries of secret pain and history. This show operates on a similar concept, except I couldn't buy in. I'm not sure whether it was due to the acting, script or combination of both.
Lee Dong Wook and Jo Bo Ah have little chemistry and feel like they are from two different dramas. Lee Dong Wook plays his character playfully, exaggerated and a bit campy, whereas Jo Bo Ah plays like she is in a very serious teen supernatural show constantly overwhelmed.
It didn't help that the production values, cinematography, and action scenes were all a bit lackluster and unattractive and there just wasn't anything to keep my interest. . . .

You should watch
Lee Dong Wook Oppa was always one of my favorite and have missed Kim Bum oppa so much. Both favorites in one frame makes everything to the top.The script is very well written, each and every episode gives you excitement and goosebumps, and there is not a single unnecessary scene.
The acting of the artist is on point. You can feel the emotion through their acting.
I just love the OST & BGM, lead every scene to the next level.
The relationship between the two brothers is ma favorite. I get soft for brother relationship. In the end it happened, the one scene broke my heart in Pieces.
I cried a lot, went through their emotion, it’s one the best drama in 2020
Moreover you all you should watch it!!

I also like the brotherly love between the two main characters, it would have been nice if they delve more on their relationship but romance would never go wrong.
The acting was good and the actors were all pleasing to the eyes. I also like the music and the scenery
Overall it was good but there is still room for improvement..

It's a MUST watch
For anyone who hasn't seen this Kdrama series yet, let me tell you, you don't even need to consider whether you're gonna watch it or not. It is simply too outstanding not to watch it.Everything from the storyline down to the cast has been meticulously planned and it all flows so well with each other.
The two main leads of the series displayed so much chemistry with each other, making it so much more enjoyable and the way the producers and directors portrayed the antagonist(s) doesn't really make you hate them later down the line ?.
The series really takes you on an emotional ride with one episode making you cry and another making you laugh until your stomach hurts.
Overall, you NEED to watch this series if you're into heart-wrenching romance with an air of mystery and thriller.

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.

PERSONAL OPINION (Hope it helps)
If you ask me what comes to my mind when I think of this Kdrama: Lee Dong wook!!!!I started watching this drama due to its hype and ratings of first episode and the truth is I do not regret my decision.
It is a nice love story of a Gumiho and a human. One of the best kdrama to binge-watch if you love fantasy. It is a brilliant mixture of supernatural’s, love, bromance and fight sequences. The chemistry and acting skills of Lee dong-wook and Jo Bo Ah is just perfect. The twist and turns in each episode are exciting, keeps you at the tip of your toes.
I loved how Jo Bo Ah was portrayed as a strong-willed woman but the character lost its clarity later on. Some scenes like people are dying but main leads going on dates and no one cared much is bit too odd.
Gods and Myths with a modern twist was fun to watch, gumiho who loves mint chocolate ice-creams, Souls given presentation on how to deal with afterlife by gatekeeper of Samdo River. Nice thought!!
If you despise even a small amount of Horror and excepts a lot of intelligence , this drama is not your piece of cake.
This drama shows how we are given choices in our lives and we pay for our decisions.

Roller coaster ride
First and foremost, i literally just finished watching this drama and i cried a river while watching the last two episodes. Lee Dong Wook and Kim Bum just got me in tears.Secondly, Lee Yeon and Lee Rang are one hell of a handsome nine tailed foxes. I was totally captivated by their handsome faces and that alone is a 9 for me.
Next, cinematography and CGI are so beautiful that it will make you want to visit such places. Effects are so realistically done, so it pays off to have a really big budget when you do fantasy drama like this.
The storyline, though its not a-so-unique story anymore, you know immortal falling in love with a human and human sacrificing her life for the sake of the immortal only to be reborn again and destiny will find itself doing the same thing again.. that kind of cliche drama.. but its pretty much good overall because of some twists and unexpected turn of events.
For the love story part, lee dong wok is sooo gorgeous and bo-ah is also pretty but im sorry to say that i didnt feel any strong chemistry between them at all. Both actors can be both pretty and handsome but both should have strong chemistry so that the audience can feel their emotions and love for each other. Well, maybe im the only one and you may disagree with me, its just my thoughts and opinion after all. So, in the end, even if i was enthralled by each thrilling episodes, the love story part is just a so-so for me. What makes me hook with this drama is Lee Yeon, Lee Rang and and Yu Ri, who has a very interesting character.
From episode 1 to 14, it was a roller coaster ride of emotions for me. There's comedy, mind boggling scenes, aegyo, drama, action. But i cried so much come ep 15 and 16. Not so much because of the love story between Yeon and Ji-ah but more because of the love between brothers, Yeon and Rang. I was touched by their love for each other. Although in descreet manners and as if they hate each other, but the look in their eyes tells you otherwise. The sacrifice that Rang made for Yeon in the end proves just how much he loves his brother. I gave a 9 rating because in the end, the sacrifice that Yeon made just for Ji ah to be saved has been wasted when Ji Ah suddenly wants to die again for Yeon, thats why Rang sacrificed himself so that his brother's death would not go to waste because of ji ah. It would have been better if they ended it as it is.. yeon died for his first love. Well, this is just me. Of course, viewers will always love a happy ending, and that inudes me also. But it still depends on how the story goes by.
Nevertheless, i still rated it 9 and a rewatched value of 9 also, all because of Lee Yeon and Lee Rang.

It is the best Korean series in 2020
It has an amazing and interesting story. I love this serial and think you should watch it. I'm very much looking forward to the new season of the series as well. Actually , this series was able to show love very well. It was able to show very well how strong the power of love is. And if someone was born even 1,000 times, they'd still be interested in that person. Thanks a lot for this wonderful serial ?Was this review helpful to you?
Nam Ji Ah is smart & intelligent. Her smartness was shown in every episode. She isn't a damsel in distress, she is one who will face her enemy face on without any fear.
The way Lee Yeon jumped from the balcony to save Nam Ji Ah &, in the end, getting injected by her
Love the way Lee Rang changes his walk in a second in episode 1.
Love Taluipa & Lee Yeon bickering relationship. She shows that she doesn’t care for him, but she does a lot. The way she fought with her brother for him.
Lee Dong Wook was looking hot in his punishment sequence.
Love the scene where fireflies showed Lee Yeon where Nam Ji Ah is
Laughed at the scene were Gu Shin Joo came rushing to see an injured Lee Yeon, he kept on hugging & checking Lee Yeon out in a crying state & Nam Ji Ah shocking face seeing him there.
Gu Shin Joo telling all of Lee Yeon dirty secrets to be Nam Ji Ah.
Love Lee Yeon & Yi Ah-Eum first meet, the little girl is bubble of cuteness.
Love Lee Rang, how much of a baddie he is. I just love him. Sometimes his love for his brother becomes excessive, but then also I love him. He shows himself as a rude person who doesn't care for anyone, but that's not true. He cares a lot about Lee Yeon, Ki Yoo Ri & Kim Soo Oh.
Gu Shin Joo is coming to Nam Ji Ah house to cook, otherwise Lee Yeon will burn her house down.
Nam Ji Ah called Gu Shin Joo her mother-in-law.
Love how Gu Shin Joo takes care of Lee Yeon. The way he brought food for Lee Yeon while he was in a bad mood.
The game Lee Yeon played in Ep 9 just loved it.
That hug Nam Ji Ah gave to Lee Yeon.
The way Hyun Eui Ong is afraid of Taluipa is so cute. At the end, he stood by Lee Yeon side.
Love the villain, he is calculative, cunning.
Love Lee Rang & Ki Yoo Ri relationship, the way he teaches her how to fight the same way Lee Yeon taught him. I also love Lee Rang & Kim Soo Oh relationship.
