Lee Dong Wook has appeared as a modern-day nine-tailed fox that captured the audiences' hearts by his perfect visual.
tvN's upcoming new fantasy romance drama 'The Tale of a Gumiho' has dropped first still cuts of actor Lee Dong Wook, in his latest role as the legendary nine-tailed fox!
Premiering this fall in October after currently airing series 'The Flower of Evil', 'The Tale of a Gumiho' tells the story of a legendary judge of good and evil, having lived thousands of years among humans. This nine-tailed legend from Baekdu Mountain goes by the name of Lee Yeon and acts as a figure of authoritative judgement against evil spirits wreaking havoc on humankind. One day, a young and clueless TV producer sets her sights on Lee Yeon, leading to a thrilling romance.
In his first filming still cuts below, Lee Dong Wook can be seen clashing with evil spirits in a luxurious event hall, defeating enemies with an old-fashioned umbrella. It's said that the particular filming involved a lot of chemistry between the staff, the stunt directors, and actors and actresses, due to a mixture of complex action scenes and CGI effects.
Lee Dong Wook said, “Because there was a lot of action and CG involved in the sequence, to be honest, the first filming was a little difficult. We were able to finish successfully thanks to the director, the martial arts director, the action team, and the staff’s thorough preparations.”
He added, “After the first filming, I had a sense of pride that we had completed a difficult scene, and I gained trust in the crew. I felt at ease knowing that all I have to do is trust the people on set, and with that in mind, I’ve been doing well on set while trusting and relying on the crew members.”
A source from the drama production said, “We’re really happy, as we feel that with Lee Dong Wook taking the reins in the role of Yi Yeon, we’ve fit the first pieces of the large puzzle that is ‘Tale of the Nine Tailed.’ Lee Dong Wook is creating an immersive drama with his analysis and careful research into the new character Yi Yeon. Please look forward to Lee Dong Wook’s performance in ‘Tale of the Nine Tailed.'”
