It's comedy hours with gumihos!

An unexpected error leads Lee Yeon to time travel to 1938, where he reunites not only with his brother but also his past nemesis. Can Lee Yeon return to the present and his love before it’s too late?

Tale of the Nine-tailed 1938 is the first kdrama I watched as it aired, and LOL! It was the highlight of my weeks. The characters don’t take themselves too seriously, they’re always bickering, doing hijinks while being so stylish. The story is clear and entertaining, with a mission. There is slightly creepy demons, time-travel and rich retro-fantasy universe. I feel it’s a very light-heart watch, like watching anime.

I felt the pacing and the plot are significantly more tighter than the prequel, without compromising the characters set. I love the unbreakable brotherhood of Lee Yeon and Lee Rang. Despite their issues, they’re always there for each other, in good times and in crisis. Also, it was cute to see Lee Rang, who is manly and clueless about love, falls for the mermaid lady.

The finale part felt a little too chaotic with the climax involving so many battles in different places, but it does not take away the overall fun. If you're in for light, pure entertainment with very good styling and crisp cinematography, I highly recommend this!
