Introduction to ‘Human From Today’
SBS has recently unveiled its first teaser for the dramatic fantasy rom-com titled ‘Human From Today’. The forthcoming series features the talented Kim Hye Yoon in the unique role of Eun Ho, a gumiho, more commonly known as a nine-tailed fox, entangled with soccer star Lomon as Kang Si Yeol.
The Unconventional Gumiho
Unlike the traditional gumiho folklore that portrays these creatures as malicious beings who consume human livers, Eun Ho enjoys a carefree, whimsical life. She directly challenges conventional norms by avoiding good deeds to prevent transforming into a human, which she perceives as a daunting fate. This fresh take on the gumiho character adds depth and humor, inviting viewers to question the oft-alarming narratives surrounding these mythical beings.
Conflict and Choices Ahead
As the teaser unfolds, viewers get a glimpse into a complex dynamic between Eun Ho and Kang Si Yeol. When an unexpected accident causes her to become human, Eun Ho’s previously sheltered existence is shattered. The tension escalates as someone warns her that a critical decision looms over her life—the choice to either embrace humanity or disappear. The series juxtaposes traditional gumiho lore with the modern tales of love and ambition, creating an engaging narrative for fans of both fantasy and romantic genres.
