This drama has plenty of cute onscreen, but sometimes — like say, when your gumiho father comes back from the dead a thousand-year demon hellbent on destroying the world, for instance — a little pick-me-up is in order.

Now that our hearts have been thoroughly broken by the beautifully sad love story of our story’s prologue (seriously, I was pretty wrecked over it, having grown so invested in their relationship), it’s time to start mending them with the introduction of our actual main characters.

Gu Family Book: Episode 2

What a lovely way to start a story. I almost never get this invested in backstory, because it’s really hard to be patient when you know that what you’re watching is the opening act and not the headliner.

I’ve been scratching my head trying to get a read on Gu Family Book ever since it was announced, and having trouble knowing what to expect. Would it be a comedy or a melodrama? Fusion or straight sageuk? Thrilling or romantic or action-packed or dramatic? We’ve got a lovely set of stills here that at... More »
