Conto de Nove Caudas 1938 (2023)

Aos amantes da fantasia Tale of The Nine Tailed 1938 proporciona uma experiência incrível

Honestamente, não fiquei tão impressionada com a S1; o romance era muito chato e a única coisa que despertou meu interesse foi à relação de Lee Yeon e Kim Bum.Então, no começo, eu estava até me perguntando por que diabos eles precisam de uma S2 pois sempre me decepciono, então comecei a assistir com uma leve dúvida, mas para minha surpresa essa temporada é um daqueles raros casos em que a sequência supera o original.

A S2 introduziu novos personagens, mantendo a maior parte do elenco original.
Dois novos protagonistas foram apresentados como inimigos de Yeon. O primeiro foi Hong Joo, o atual Deus da Montanha Oeste, uma coruja e um animal selvagem. o segundo foi Mu Young, o antigo Deus da Montanha do Norte, tigre siberiano que nutria profundo ressentimento em relação a Yeon.
Através da viagem no tempo, Yeon se reúne com seu amado irmão mais novo, Rang.
Além disso, um novo vilão surge na forma de Akira Ryuhei, poderoso governante e governante japonês.

A execução de várias histórias de suspense de fantasia foi absolutamente fantástica.
E o lado cômicos apresentados por Yeon, Hong Joo, Shinjoo & O leal chefe bandido de Rang foi excepcional.

Como o romance não foi o foco central a série foi capaz de dar igual atenção a todos os personagens principais. Como Eunho, mesmo que ela não estivesse diretamente ligada aos protagonistas desta temporada, ela teve um papel fundamental.

A 2ª temporada apresentou laços fortes que perduraram por séculos, como o vínculo fraterno entre Yeon e Rang e também as preciosas amizades de Yeon com Hong Joo & Mu Young . As cenas que retratam esses laços foram retratadas de forma emocionantes.

Rang também passou por um desenvolvimento significativo de personagem nesta temporada. Inicialmente abrigando ressentimento em relação ao irmão, ele gradualmente suavizou e se acalmou. demonstrou mais carinho à medida que a temporada avançava. Seu enredo romântico pessoal adicionou profundidade ao seu personagem.

Em termos de atuação, todo o elenco se destacou neste drama, como Mu Young, Ko Shinjoo, Bandit Boss, Jaeyoo, Akira Ryuhei & Eunhoo .
Lee Dongwook & Kim Beom, como na temporada anterior, teve atuações fantásticas, tornando a 2ª temporada igualmente agradável. O bromance deles foi sem dúvida um dos destaques da temporada.



Está temporada foi realmente agradável e superou minhas expectativas.

Tale 1938

Não sei se quero mais uma temporada, sofri muito nessa apesar de ter dado tudo certo no final!!!! E o ator do Rang se despediu do drama como se não fosse mais voltar 🥺 e se ele não voltar qual vai ser a história? Pq pra mim se o passado mudou o futuro teria que mudar de algum jeito também, foi uma lacuna que ficou em aberto pra mim.
Mas desde o começo que assisti essa temporada/spinoff eu fiquei dizendo pra mim que ela teve alguns objetivos como: trazer um ar mais de comédia, assim como na anterior mas acho que essa foi um pouco mais, apesar do sofrimento por causa dos novos personagens deixou muitas cenas mais leves.
O Rang e o Yeon, pra mim o mais especial foi ver esses dois juntos de novo, me emocionei em várias cenas e fico surpresa com a química que o dong wook tem, eu amei em goblin com o gong yoo e em bad and crazy com o ha Jun, um ator completo! E o nosso rang vivendo o romance dele a coisa mais fofa!!!
E também ele com os outros deuses da montanha que nem são mencionadas mas que foi ótimo ver a amizade deles, ver mais da história! Gostei de rever vários personagens, foi tão bom, a história também foi ótima!
E uma coisa que eu gostei mais ainda e já gosto é quando eles abordam a colonização do Japão na Coreia, acho que isso carrega MUITO a história da Coreia em si e simplesmente amo todas as histórias que abordaram, independente se fosse fantasia ou com humanos que lutaram pela independência, eu simplesmente amo conhecer mais da história desse período e meu coração dói toda vez que vejo sobre.
Enfim, eu amei, foi ótimo rever e realmente dá um gostinho de quero mais, de saber o que aconteceu com todos eles e o que poderia acontecer no futuro, mas pra mim tá ótimo do jeito que tá!
E um adendo, amei a atriz que fez a Hong Joo tive uma palinha dela em táxi driver que assistiu já sabe e foi uma personagem muito diferente mesmo pra uma participação especial, quero ver mais trabalhos dela.

Superou minhas expectativas!

Para começar, eu fiquei bem apreensiva quando anunciaram essa temporada, pois a primeira já tinha sido tão boa que eu fiquei com medo que essa acabasse estragando a imagem do dorama, mas diferente do que eu pensei, essa foi disparada minha favorita entre as duas. Ao contrário da 1ª temporada, TOTNT 1938 foca mais nas amizades e família do Lee yeon, visto que, ele volta pro passado e encontra seus conhecidos da época. Com mais ação, esta temporada nos entrega grandes cenas de luta e um Lee Yeon mais impiedoso, além de aprofundar mais suas fraquezas e origem.

Para mim o ponto principal desta temporada foi o reencontro dos irmãos gumiho, que mais uma vez eles não falharam em nos emocionar. Por ter perdido seu irmão no presente, o Yeon busca a todo momento estar perto de Rang, como se a qualquer momento ele pudesse sumir de sua visão, nos fazendo cair na risada em alguns momentos com sua pose de paizão. Porém mesmo com tanta atenção aquele sentimento de abandono do Lee Rang ainda está lá, mas com o desenrolar da trama a relação deles vai se estreitando e mesmo com desconfianças, o Rang se sente feliz por estar ali com seu irmão.

O desenvolvimento do Rang foi algo que me deu muito orgulho de ver, ele deixou de ser uma pessoa insegura que mascarava seus medos com falas ácidas e irônicas, para alguém mais transparente que assim como todo mundo, tem medo da solidão e do abandono. Ele finalmente pode viver com o seu irmão assim como gostaria e também encontrou um amor e uma família, tenho certeza que ele nunca mais se sentirá sozinho.

Também temos novos personagens que são uma parte chave no passado do Lee Yeon, seus amigos de infância e ex-deuses da montanha, Ryu Hongjoo e Cheon Mooyoung, duas pessoas que assim como várias outras se sentem ressentidas com o abandono de Lee Yeon, mas que com objetivos em comum se reúnem como nos velhos tempos e mostram que a união faz a força.

Em geral é um drama incrível, mas fiquei com dúvidas sobre o que aconteceu com o irmão do MooYoung, ele vai ficar para a possível terceira temporada? Ele fugiu? Fiquei com muitas interrogações na minha cabeça, espero que haja uma terceira temporada (que seja boa, como essa) e que explique isso.

Concluindo, recomendo Tale of the Nine-tailed de olhos fechados! É um drama que te emociona numa cena e te faz rir em outra, te deixa tenso e curioso, te dá um turbilhão de emoções. A atuação do elenco é sem defeitos e mesmo que alguns sejam novos na trama, nos entregaram uma química incrível! Não consigo não me emocionar quando falo de TOTNT, eu fui tão feliz assistindo, queria apagar da minha mente para sentir tudo pela primeira vez.

Que saudade!

Uma temporada surpreendente, conseguiram desenvolver bem a história em apenas 12 episódios, me prendeu do inicio ao fim, sem ficar um minuto entediada. No primeiro ep, eu admito que foi diferente do que eu imaginava, mas a partir do segundo ep, eu me apaixonei por tudo. SIMPLESMENTE AMO o meu bromance do Lee Yeon e Lee Rang, são meus irmãos favoritos, e ninguém os supera. Gostei da história dos três amigos, apesar do Moo Young me fazer muita raiva, ele é legal. Hong Joo, é uma querida, amei ela, me apaixonei pela atriz. Cada personagem dessa temporada foi muito bem produzido. As comédias, as lutas, os vilões, tudo maravilhoso. O Rang finalmente encontrando amor, foi tudo que eu pedi! E Yeon o homem (raposa) mais fiel que existe haha

From Laughter to Chills : Tale of The Nine Tailed 1938 Delivers an Unforgettable Experience

The show captivated viewers from start to finish, delivering thrilling & satisfying experience. It stands out as one of those rare instances where the sequel surpasses the original. Although S1 was enjoyable to me, S2 gained even more popularity & favor among audiences.

When the show began, there were uncertainties surrounding the new Female Lead's romantic involvement with Yeon & revival of Rang who was easily most favourite character from S1. However, it gave satisfactory answers to all the curious viewers.

Season 2 transported Main lead Yeon back 82 years to time when South Korea was still under Japanese colonial rule.

The new season introduced plethora of new characters while retaining most of the original cast. Some characters remained unchanged, while one particular actress from S1 took on new & even more challenging role in S2.

Two new leads were introduced as frenemies of Yeon. The first was Hong Joo, the current West Mountain God, an owl & second was Mu Young, the former North Mountain God, Siberian tiger harboring deep resentment towards Yeon. Mu Young sets the stage for Season 2 by time traveling to the year 1938 from year of 2020.

Through time travel, Yeon reunites with his beloved little brother Rang, who is half fox & half human. Although their relationship remains love hate during this era, Yeon gradually wins Rang over.
Additionally new villain emerges in the form of Akira Ryuhei, powerful Japanese ruler & demon.

The show masterfully blended comedy & thriller elements. The comedic moments, primarily delivered by Yeon, Hong Joo, Shinjoo & Rang's loyal bandit boss were exceptional.
The comedy was so well executed that it often left viewers laughing for several minutes after each scene.

In terms of thrills, the show delivered exhilarating elements by incorporating Korean folklore inspired tracks. These tracks were engaging & kept viewers on the edge of their seats throughout the season.

The execution of various fantasy thriller storylines was absolutely fantastic. It exemplified what fantasy show should be in contrast to another fantasy drama that aired on the same channel the previous year, which failed to provide similar level of excitement. Other writers should take notes from the creators of this drama on how to craft a captivating fantasy drama.

Season 2 showcased strong bonds that had endured for centuries such as the brotherly bond between Yeon & Rang as well as Yeon's precious friendships with his past acquaintances. The scenes depicting these bonds were exceptionally well written & portrayed.

Since romance was not the central focus of this season, show was able to give equal attention to all the major characters. It was refreshing to see how Eunho became entangled in the main plot, even though she was not directly connected to the leads in this season.

Complex characters like Hong Joo & Mu Young were explored in great detail, adding depth to the storyline.

The standout character of this season was Ryu Hong Joo who is new female lead of new season. Her strength & portrayal left lasting impact on viewers despite not being involved in any romantic storyline. She was the most powerful mountain god among all the mountain gods & possessed rare combination of strength, badassery & intelligence. Such characters are rarely seen in other shows making her a refreshing addition.

Rang also underwent significant character development in this season. Initially harboring resentment towards his brother, he gradually softened & displayed more affection as the season progressed. His personal romantic storyline further added depth to his character.

Mu Young was a complex character in the second season, starting off as smart villain. However some of his later choices raised questions about his intelligence. It would have been satisfying to see him handle situations more cleverly, as he had great potential. The writers should have provided valid reasons behind his actions which would have greatly enhanced his character development.

In terms of acting, entire cast excelled in this drama, from the Baeksang Awardee Kim So Yeon to the minor Japanese mercenary characters introduced later on.
Kim So Yeon's portrayal of the character Ryu Hong Joo, the West mountain god, was particularly impressive. Her expressions & delivery were always on point.
Lee Dongwook & Kim Beom, as in the previous season, delivered fantastic performances, making Season 2 equally enjoyable. Their bromance was undoubtedly one of the highlights of the season.

The other actors who portrayed characters like Mu Young, Ko Shinjoo, Bandit Boss, Jaeyoo, Akira Ryuhei & Eunhoo also did a fantastic job.

The music in the season was great although personally I found S1's music & OST tracks to be even more memorable.

While Season 2 had some flaws I won't delve into them because the pros easily outweighs the cons.

All in all, this season was a truly enjoyable watch and exceeded my expectations. Now I will patiently wait for Season 3.

Fantasy lovers should definitely not miss this masterpiece.

Nostalgic and Humorous

I gotta say, the humor is spot-on. It’s a perfect combination of witty remarks, dry humor, and dramatic irony. There’s also a good amount of S1 nostalgia without trying to recreate the original show. Best part of all is the chemistry between the actors that makes these fictional relationships feel so real and unique. I’m also loving the historic setting!

On a more controversial note, I’m glad Ji-ah doesn’t make an appearance in this so far, even though all the other main characters have. To me, Ji-ah and Lee Yeon’s relationship felt lacking. Perhaps it was the writing, the direction, or just the lack of chemistry between actors, which is hard to say, since the rest of the actors seem to have such great chemistry maybe it’s the character of Ji-ah that just felt flat…

Anyway, highly recommend!

A entertaining little kdrama, with a bit of mythology and familiar characters, a likable cast and lighthearted fun, hilarity and silliness is what Tale of the Nine Tailed 1938 promises to offers us in this series that takes place before the events of the previous series, Tale of the Nine Tailed, but nothing much more than that. I mostly watched the first series for Kim Bum, who is actually still the reason I watched Tale of the Nine Tailed 1938.

There’s really no real need to watch the first series before this one, because it’s kind of a self-contained prequel and the one does not really affect the other. Some of the characters here seem to have the character development and dynamics between each other we had arrived upon after all the events of the first series though.

There is such an inconstant, slightly odd characterization going on sometimes which is is jarring at first, but you quickly learn to ignore it or not think much of it because this series is just made to be fun. It’s for the people who want a light, fun and fluffy drama with Kim Bum and Lee Dong Wook. The story is just made to be very entertaining.

Still, some things in this drama does go against what we’ve learned in the previous series or just ignores it because a lot of the stuff that happened there doesn’t really affect things here all that much, but does explain some things at the same time. It’s wildly inconsistent, Like Lee Rang at the end of this series isn’t really the same character that we meet at the start of the first one. One should not need to use too much brainpower while enjoying this show, because the show is wildly enjoyable.

The story has a strong tendency to go into fan service - just giving the fans what they liked the most in the previous series although does not necessarily serve the story and are serves a bit like a filler for the large cracks in the story itself. But it does also gave us more action, humor and scenes between the brothers that were some of the best parts of the first series. But it does feel a bit like this drama is very style over substance, quantity over quality.

The romance is much more in the background in this series, but I actually enjoyed it a lot more here than in the previous series. Because the characters that the romances are about are just more interesting and they don’t dominate the whole story as much. There is a better buildup to it and it never feels like some overwhelming YA subternatural romance. I found this one more grounded and intense.

And while I could talk about the cast and entertainment value of the shows for a long while, I will always come back to the shows main problem and that is the overall story is pretty weak. It’s not exactly a drama you’re going to watch for the clever, deep or logical writing. You’re just there for the character really. And drama knows and reflects that. It knows it’s audience so well.

The story and the whole atmosphere of the episodes is rather light-hearted. And really, I wish the story had allowed itself a little more depth and darkness within itself. Going a little deeper into all of the characters, reflecting on the past and the present and maybe more contrast between the two, as well as the Japanese occupation within Korean history.

It’s strange to have that as a setting and then try to keep it so light and fun. At times it tries to go a bit deeper, but it still never goes all the way. It just tips the toes in (and one kind of wonders why this period was chosen, because I can’t really see a point to it when it comes to the plot). The only thing that it allowed itself to do more in this historical setting is play around more with the mythology and the lore of the show, which was cool. But I wanted more.

Aside from the romance and the complicated relationship between the brothers and just further character exploration of Lee Rang’s tragic backstory (Kim Bum is the true star of this show and Lee Yeon, the older brothers, takes a bit of a backseat when it comes to story and character development) there isn’t much of an actual story that ties things altogether or let the story end with a particular point or saying too much.

It’s sort of a very slow character-driven story, if you want to look at it that way, with a very loose and meandering plot. It’s almost as if the writers felt like they had already done all the plotting in the previous series so here they just wanted to entertain us with the characters and let the actors do their thing.

Tale of the Nine Tailed was more fun and had more things that I personally liked than the first series. The romance didn’t overpower the whole story and we got more character moments of the people I cared about, there was more myths and lore to everything and the historical period was fun to look at, even if it lacked depth. The main core of the story it wasn’t as solid or well shaped as it could have been. I’m having a bit of a hard time figuring out what Tale of the Nine Tailed 1938 is really, truly about. But the entertainment value was there the whole time.

⚔️ Unbreakable Bonds and Unforgettable Friendships: A 'Fox'-ceptional Sequel

It's rare for a second season to surpass the first, let alone do it in a way that doesn't compromise the canon set up by the original. Tale of the Nine Tailed 1938 does this exceptionally well. It manages to retain all the elements that made season one great: flawed. complex and intriguing main characters (Lee Yeon and Lee Rang) and their wounded but unbreakable bond, the rich fantasy world-building, and the deeply interwoven native folklores. However, it surpasses the original with improved pacing, a tighter plot, and significantly better villains and backstory.

The original's biggest flaw was a weak villain and the vague backstory of FL's parents, which left us with unanswered questions and plot holes. With 1938, the villains are more coherent, although we are still left with some unanswered questions regarding one of them (presumably to be addressed in the third season?). The backstory of the villains is better fleshed out, adding to the compelling threat they pose. Despite being a fantasy where the outcome is fairly assured, the series manages to raise the stakes against our heroes and presents them with a daunting task.

Much of the enjoyment comes from the excellent chemistry between the characters. Beyond the remarkable camaraderie between the Lee brothers, the fellowship among the Mountain god trio is equally engaging. The humour is on point, with comedic situations and witty dialogue. The tone seamlessly shifts between humor and intrigue, poignant and thrilling. No moment is wasted, and even side characters and their stories are well-integrated into the overarching narrative.

I must admit that some of the flaws from the writer are still present in this season, mainly a tendency to leave a trail of apparent plot holes. While it's slightly less overt in season 2, it remains noticeable. In season 1, it mainly revolved around the parents' storyline and the reincarnation concept. In season 2, the lack of clear discussion over Moo Young's brother's atrocities is a glaring plot hole, especially considering the flashback showing him attacking Moo Young himself. It could have been addressed with a scene that demonstrates why Moo Young is confident in his brother's innocence.

The one main flaw of S1 was Lee Yeon and Ji Ah's relationship. It was perhaps a combination of weak writing (it relied too heavily on her past self rather than developing the relationship with the present character) and a lack of chemistry between them. (That being said, I was still able to enjoy their relationship because LDW is just that adorable.) S2 is better precisely because it stays true to S1, our nine-tailed fox loves for life, so his chemistry with Hong Joo make for an uncomplicated, witty and enjoyable friendship. Kim So Yeon steals every scene she's in, exhibiting great chemistry with all her co-stars. The treat was seeing Lee Rang's love story, although his surprise power raises more questions that will hopefully be addressed in Season 3.

As someone who was initially wary of a sequel, I was amazed by the quality of this season and now find myself longing for Season 3.

9.5/10

100/10

This is an all-around 10/10 for me. Who needs romance dramas when u have a perfectly sassy gumiho??!! Trust me this is INFINITE times better than season 1. Honestly, I wasn't so impressed with season 1; the romance was too dull for me, and the only thing that piqued my interest was Lee Yeon's sexy hair and Kim Bum, who made a stunning comeback after a long time! So at first, I was even wondering why the hell they need a season 2. Hence, I started watching with a slight doubt BUT...... FK romance, romance played only a very small role but the action scenes, and the crazy friend trio was just PERFECT.

If u ask me, just watch season 2 instead of watching season 1. From what I see, season 1 doesn't play a major role in season 2, the two seasons tell two different stories. You only need to know 3 thing,

1. Lee Yeon is a Joseon Mountain God who fell in love with a human woman. After she dies, he waited for her to reincarnate which she did in modern times. CUZ Foxes have only ONE mate for LIFE!!!
2. Lee Yeon has a brother called Lee Rang who dies in season 1 trying to save him, so LY feels guilty about it, plus they have a bro complex.
3. Lee Rang has a love-hate relationship with his brother, he thinks he was abandoned by Lee Yeon so he's kinda like a kid who's trying to throw tantrums at Lee Yeon trying to get his attention.

That's all u need to know from season 1 to watch season 2.

A variety show

I seriously don't get the high ratings for this show. The first 'season' (if you can call it that) was an ok watch. I liked the characters, I sympathesized with the Gumiho, Lee Yeon, and I even liked Lee Dong Wook and Kim Bun. Lee Rang was a bit petulant and annoying but when I started to understand his back story, I was sympathetic. However, it certainly wasn't on the same level as Goblin.

I can't say the same about this installment however. The writing was patchy and incoherent. It was like watching Saturday Night Live - Korean. It was a string of disjointed skits and scenes without any real plot, especially in the first few episodes. When I started to get into this 'variety show' (NOT a drama), it was just comfortable watching because of slapstick and light laughs; certainly not full-on har-har comedy.

There seemed to be a distinct LACK of plot. A plot implies a scenario, a mission, character growth, a dramatic challenge, and overcoming that challenge(s). In fact, the only character who seemed to have experienced any character growth was Moo Young - but hello, he's not really the main character!

The only reason I stuck on was because of Lee Dong Wook and Kim Bun. At the end, I was just glad it was all over. And now they want to do a third season set in a different era? So the writers seemed to have stumbled on a winning formula - a time-travelling gumiho who gets into hijinks? Isn't that evidence of a lack of overarching plot direction aka the very definition of variety show skits?
