My Roommate Is A Gumiho is the new K-drama rom-com that’s piquing our interest. After Tale Of The Nine-Tailed, another story with the unorthodox take on the male gumiho (nine-tailed fox) from Eastern mythology is intriguing to explore. The drama stars Lee Hyeri (Reply 1988) as spunky college student Lee Dam and Jang Ki Yong (Born Again) as the indifferent 999-year-old gumiho (nine-tailed fox) Shin Woo Yeo. It starts with Shin Woo Yeo wishing to be human. But the only way to do so is to absorb human energy until his Fox Marble turns blue before he hits his thousandth year as a gumiho.
