Han Eun-jung upgrades her image in Fox’s Child
Today saw the finale episode for the KBS series Gumiho: Tale of the Fox’s Child, which took a new spin on the gumiho myth.

It’s like a wee puppy trying to look menacing; you just want to cuddle it, even if it looks like it wants to bite you. We’ve already seen the stills of Kim... More »
