On May 6th, Young Hoon will take on the role of 'Dong Fang Shuo' in the first episode of tvN's new weekend drama Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 (directed by Kang Shin Hyo, written by Han Woo Ri, produced by Studio Dragon and HOW Pictures).

 Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 is a K-fantasy action historical drama that unfolds in the chaotic era of 1938, where a 'Gumiho' named  Lee Yeon  (played by Lee Dong Wook) crash-lands and strives to return to the modern world.

The character Young Hoon portrays, the 'Dong Fang Shuo,' is the longest-living figure in Eastern folklore and will create intense tension in the first episode, clashing with  Lee Yeon  (played by Lee Dong Wook).

In the previously released preview, Young Hoon's transformation into the 'Dong Fang Shuo' was showcased, raising curiosity as he exhibits a relaxed attitude towards Lee Yeon, who points a knife at his throat while also displaying mysterious behavior and appearance, hinting at hidden secrets.

Meanwhile,  Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 will premiere on May 6th at 9:20 PM KST.
