The release date of Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 is soon approaching, and the excitement is palpable. To tease the fans further, tvN has unveiled stills, featuring Lee Dong Wook, Kim So Yeon, and Ryu Kyung Soo, and the intriguing dynamic they share on-screen.

The pics released by the production team reveal the trio's long-standing relationship at a glance. One eye-catching still is their childhood photo from a distant past where they solemnly promise to protect each other forever. 

Even after becoming adults, the three stick together. Cheon Mu Young is seen absorbed in reading a book, Lee Yeon sits bored, while Ryu Hong Ju (Kim So Yeon) - dressed in a beautiful Hanbok which accentuates her striking visuals - watches them both with a warm gaze, making their deep trust and friendship evident. 

However, the circumstances are no longer the same when Lee Yeon (of the present day) travels back in time to 1938. Ryu Hong Ju points her sword and Cheon Mu Young aims at a target with his bow with an unwavering gaze, hint at the broken bond of friendship the trio once shared. 

The changed circumstances beg the question, "What happened between them that strained their relationship". 

Regarding Kim So Yeon and Ryu Kyung Soo joining the cast, director Kang Shin Hyo expressed his excitement by Kim So Yeon and Ryu Kyung Soo joining the cast, director Kang Shin Hyo expressed his excitement saying, "It feels like I've won a thousand horses."

Whereas, Lee Dong Wook praised his co-stars, Kim So Yeon and Ryu Kyung Soo, saying, "They both have such good personalities, and their acting was excellent. All I had to do was react strongly."
