My Gumiho Girlfriend has nine tails
You’re going to get tired of me saying it, I’m sure, but I can’t help it: wussy Lee Seung-gi makes me giggle every time. We’ve seen a similar version of this promo for My Girlfriend Is A Gumiho, but without the tails that make the gumiho a gumiho (i.e., a nine-tailed fox). I think Lee... More »
