Binge watching K-dramas is the new obsession of most of us. To their credit, south Korea indeed makes best binge-worthy weekend content especially in comedy, thriller and fantasy genres. Double the fun if the series at hand is both a comedy and a fantasy. We are recommending one such show today. Its none other than the 2010 hit comedy series ‘My Girlfriend is a Gumiho’. The show is streaming on Netflix India and is now streaming on MX Player for free.
This hit SBS original spans across 16 episodes and stars South Korean darlings Shin Min-ah and Lee Seung-gi in lead roles. The TRP topper show is one of the few fantasy shows of last decade that aged so well. The drama follows the love-story of a loser and a nine tailed fox or what is called a Gumiho in Korean.
The show follows Cha Dae Woong, who is a carefree university student. He is an orphan whose wealthy grandfather Cha Poong and single aunt Cha Min Sook take care of him. One day, Dae Woong visits a temple and accidentally sets free a Gumiho, nine-tailed fox, who was trapped in a painting for 500 years. Fearful Dae Woong severely injures himself, but the Gumiho, who took the form of a beautiful woman, saves him. In exchange, the Gumiho asks him to help her become human. With time, their mutual relationship grows deeper and they start to fall for each other.
My Girlfriend is a Gumiho is written by Hong Jung-eun and Hong Mi-ran and directed by Boo Sung Chul. This rib-chuckling comedy is definitely worth your time. Head straight to watch the show in Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, , Kannada,Tamil and Bengali. Stay tuned for more recommendations like these.
