My Girlfriend is a Gumiho (2010)

The drama tells a story about a Gumiho, who wants to be a human.

The plot starts well, it’s interesting and from the very start the Gumiho (Mi-Ho) gets my symphathy. She is freed by Cha Daewoong, so she decides to help him. A goblin appeares in Mi-Ho’s life and wants to help her to become human.


The drama is good but i wished more.


THE LET DOWNS

- The usual rich guy, poor girl.

- Mi-Ho keeps asking Cha Daewoong to buy her
meat, even though he doesn’t have much money.

-She is too bubbly towards him. He keeps being mean to her, but she she still tries to approach him. I wished for a little more elegance from her. Kind and bubbly but some of the things she says..i feel like doesn’t fit for a Gumiho. I feel like she was lacking some ”supernatural spice”

- I was hoping Mi-Ho to be a cool Gumiho. Was hoping kind of badass scenes like ”Mi-Ho saving Dae Woong”

- she kept following him everywhere. U were trapped for 500 years and all u wanna do is follow a guy who is mean to you, just cuz he buys u food? You don’t wanna go see what has changed in the last 500years?

-She was so naive and little..stupid for a fox. Foxes are usually pretty smart and sure it takes time to get used to a new world, but i feel like she should have known not to go through trash or eat soap or drink someone’s left over coffee..

-Dongjoo.. i wished him better. He was very interesting character. I was hoping to see more of him and his personal story too. I felt bad because he was just repeating his words over and over again. There was no progression. I kinda think they could have went a little bit further with the love triangle and given Mi-Ho and Dong-Joo at least some actually romantic scenes.

-Tell me again, what was the point of telling us that Cha Daewoong’s parents are dead..? His fear of the Zoo was solved in a blink of an eye.

-The ending.. So rushed. The ending twist was wrapped up in under 12minutes..



THE GOODS:

-The supporting couple. Minsuk and director Ban..they were the real couple here!

-Mi-Ho and Cha Daewoong always solved problems fast.

-Mi-Ho’s background story was very touching.
I felt bad for her and wished her to find true happiness.

-Dongjoo’s kind actions towards Mi-Ho. He didn’t buy any meat before Mi-Ho started visiting often.

- The way how their love progressed. I like the fact that Cha Daewoong started liking her little by little.The cute little jealousy that followed when he started liking her.

-I did like that fact that Mi-Ho was always kind and never wanted to be a bad guy. She was pure and funny. She tried hard to become human. She almost never lost her hope on things and always hoped for the best.

It was really nice ”lovey dovey romantic comedy drama” my biggest problems just happened to be Mi-Ho’s personality. It has a lot of sweet moments and funny moments. The acting was great, especially Noh MinWoo..

Nice Love Story!

Overall very good story. I've fall on the main characters especially the leading man. So cute and so nice. I'm gonna miss this drama. ❤️.

Characters. They are all good and perfect to their characters. My Favorite character is Dae Wong even though he lied always. I like his voice and his love for Miho. Very amazing character for me is Miho. I like her also because of her cuteness and being kind and innocent. Both actors have a good chemistry. I loved it. ❤️

Story. Very interesting story or plot like you cannot stop to watch it because you're excited to the next episodes. Actually I already watch it a few times because of the story. I’m still being carried away by the scenes. I loved it.

Music. I love the songs. I like their song like I’m really looking for it to listen over and over again especially with the sad song "Fox Rain".

Cannot Forget this Title

Shin Min Ah s acting just grows on you. She is like a goddess. Shes shy and looks timid in real person but in here shes loose and funny. Lee Seung Gi s acting is exceptional here. I cried whenever he cries especially at the last episodes. He is good in transitioning between being innocent to being serious. The story teaches us about what true love really is and what it is supposed to be. Check out this line "I need you because I love you" and not the other way around." Love is a fantasy indeed. Watch the series and Im sure you will experience it your self. I also like the hilarious reactions of the grandpa and the side love story between director Ban and Aunt Min Suk. They added a lot to the lightness of it all. The soundtrack is very good as well.

Short bit - a fun story with some quite funny moments interposed with some sad moments, fairly predictable but that didn't ruin it for me at all. Cast were fantastic and the chemistry between the leads was superb.

Waffley bit...

I really enjoyed this one, telling the story of a mythical 9-tailed fox who is set free from a drawing and enters the real world where she ultimately falls in love with the male lead in the story and so begins the crux of the troubles.

Shin Min-Ah is just fantastic in this, she plays the doe eyed, innocent and inexperienced "fox" superbly as she tries to navigate this new world. A scene where Dae-Wung spots something in a store that he really likes and she later goes back to buy it for him is just a classic example of this. Scenes where she's eating meat and just over the moon enjoying herself like it's the greatest experience she's ever had are fun to watch too.

Lee Seung-Gi, whom I first saw MUCH older in the more recent Vagabond looks practically like barely a teenager in this but performs well and provides a great counterpoint to the innocence of Shin Min-Ah's character.

Noh Min-Woo's character, Park Dong-Joo, I just found to be really flat. That may be the writing / production but I just didn't gel with this character at all.

There's also a momentary cameo from another actress who is much more well known now, Park Shin Hye - but she's barely recognisable as a school-age girl on the bus.

There are some real cheeseball moments, pretty much the entire character of Ban Doo Hong (the action film director in the story) is a hyper-real character who's quite fun. The most amusing scene in the entire story involves him taking a pee against a wall, i'll just leave it there, it's absolutely hilarious.

The story references Little Mermaid when Mi-Ho is given the book to read to hint at her possible future, and there are certainly some strong links between the two stories - though I will say this isn't just a remake of Little Mermaid with a different skin, it does follow a different path.

If you're paying a reasonable amount of attention, the ending and how it's arrived upon is fairly predictable, it's not a complex story, but I didn't find this made it any less enjoyable at all.

The chemistry between the two leads is superb, I could sense some real affection when they were both on the screen together with her throwing her heart at him utterly unconditionally.

Nothing in the OST really stood out to me, but I'll go listen to it separately later. They tended to go for musical backing per-character, i.e. when a particular character is the focus of a scene you'll hear the same music being played to match it.

Another great drama and definitely worth a watch.

OH MY GOSH. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE ITTTT.

You will become as addicted as me when you finally watched all of the episodes. It was really really really greaaaaat.

Shin Min-ah and Lee Seung Gi had this really perfect and appealing chemistry. I didn't even notice that Shin Min-ah is older than him because their chemistry was THAT great.

At first, the story was all funny and hilarious until they actually fell in love and BAMMM! it became all touchy and sad. I have no idea how many tissues I had when I was watching this.

This drama brought laughter, smile, and a lot of tears. And I probably have re-watched it for 5 times and I always cried and laughed although I've known the story.

WATCH IT!!!!

The story 's not bad, it was good but none of it was interesting unless Shin Min-a (Mi ho) is on-screen. Everything she does is cute, from her expressions to the way she talks, even in the way she moves.

Casting would've been better if the leading man was a lot more capable. That guy doesn't even know how to be sweet to a really sweet girl. If only Lee Min Ho was the leading man and the ending was better, this could've been the biggest hit.

I REALLY HATE IT WHEN I SEE HER CRY.

Honestly, the only actors that really stand out was Byun Hee Bong (grandpa) and Shin Min-a(Mi ho)..gave all 9.0/10 because of her and only her. Scene from 14-16 wasn't that fun for me and could've been composed to one episode to give way to a more interesting ending. Nonetheless I really had fun watching it from the beginning but ended up disappointed with the ending.
