“Tale of the Nine Tailed” will return for a second season, once again starring actors Lee Dong-wook and Kim Beom, according to tvN on Tuesday.

“Tale of the Nine Tailed 1938,” set to air some time next year, is a modern reinterpretation of Korea’s folklore surrounding gumiho, a nine-tailed fox creature that can shapeshift in to a beautiful woman who seduces men to their death. In season one from 2020, Lee took on the role of a male gumiho, which was received as a novel interpretation of the traditionally female creature. For this season, Lee’s gumiho timeslips and finds himself in the year 1938.

Actors Kim So-yeon and Ryu Kyung-soo have also joined the cast.
