Kim So Yeon Undergoes Dramatic Transformation For "Tale Of The Nine-Tailed 1938"

tvN’s “Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938” has revealed its first look at Kim So Yeon’s character!

Starring Lee Dong Wook, Jo Bo Ah, and Kim Bum, “Tale of the Nine-Tailed,” which aired at the end of 2020, tells the story of the male gumiho (a mythical nine-tailed fox) Yi Yeon (Lee Dong Wook) in a modern era. Although Yi Yeon found a happy ending with Nam Ji Ah (Jo Bo Ah) in Season 1, he will get swept up in an unexpected incident and get summoned to the year of 1938. The new season will depict Yi Yeon’s desperate struggle to return to present day where all the people precious to him are.

Kim So Yeon will star as Ryu Hong Joo, once Mountain Goddess of the West and now owner of a top-scale restaurant. Along with Yi Yeon, she used to be one of the four guardian spirits who ruled over the Korean peninsula. She harnesses magnificent powers and her nature is similar to that of a Eurasian eagle owl, the king of the wild. Her sharp gaze is easily noticeable in the set of stills released, which feature her in several ravishing outfits and a mischievous smile.

The actress, who previously shared that she is a fan of the series, commented, “I am overjoyed to join the ‘Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938’ team, and I am very excited for the upcoming broadcast. Personally, I’m a fan of fantasy, so when I got the offer, I happily accepted it without thinking twice. I really wanted to give it a go.”

She further described her role Ryu Hong Joo by saying, “She’s a multi-faceted character. She’s shrewd and bold but so very lovable. As she is already aware, she is pretty. She also puts up a good fight and has incredible strength. I dilligently attended action classes to pull off the action scenes at the beginning of the series. I’m hoping that the scenes turned out well.”

“Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938” premieres on May 6 at 9:20 p.m. KST as the follow-up to “Pandora: Beneath the Paradise.” Check out another teaser here!
