Apr 26, 2023

tvN’s upcoming drama “Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938” has shared a sneak peek of Kim Bum in character!

“Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938” is a sequel to the hit 2020 drama “Tale of the Nine-Tailed,” which told the story of the male gumiho (mythical nine-tailed fox) Yi Yeon (played by Lee Dong Wook) in the present day. However, in the upcoming sequel, he will unexpectedly find himself back in 1938—and the fantasy action drama will follow his quest to return to the present.

In “Tale of the Nine-Tailed,” Yi Yeon’s half-brother Yi Rang (Kim Bum) initially hated his older brother for a long time due to a grave misunderstanding, but the two siblings were finally able to reconcile, with Yi Rang even sacrificing his life for Yi Yeon’s sake.

However, when Yi Yeon lands in 1938, he has returned to a time before he and Yi Rang resolved the misunderstandings between them—and so he will once again meet an Yi Rang who detests him.

Newly released stills from the upcoming drama offer a glimpse of Yi Rang in the year 1938, where he is the leader of a gang of bandits. But in contrast to the dark aura he exudes as a dangerous criminal, Yi Rang reveals his hidden soft side when he attempts to protect an adorable puppy.

Kim Bum commented, “I’m so happy to be greeting you as Yi Rang once again. I loved the ‘Tale of the Nine-Tailed’ series more than anyone, and as one of the people who eagerly waited [for this sequel], I’m really looking forward to the premiere and am so excited for it.”

As for what viewers can look forward to in “Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938,” Kim Bum shared, “The Yi Rang of that time and that era will show you a different side of himself that is completely unlike his modern-day self.”

“In the last season, which was set in present day, Yi Rang tried not to get attached to other people,” said Kim Bum. “But actually, he was originally a character who was as affectionate as could be. In ‘Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938,’ you’ll be able to see his relationships with other characters in a time when he still gave his heart and got attached to other people. I think that will be a new side of him [for viewers].”
