A Hell Of A Ride

Really enjoyed the drama initially, Woo Yeo and Dam were very fun to watch. I'm a little dissapointed with some of the choices made in their relationship as it got closer to the end (Woo Yeo is jealousy is just too much to bare). I adored the supporting cast and the college life, it was a real joy to see that and I couldn't help but reminisce of my college days pre-pandemic. The couples and friendships were the real stunners of this show honestly, *chefs kiss*. Check out my full review here: https://youtu.be/jiBQA0tZfM8

Masterpiece fairy tale

This drama is really about games people play, stealing energy from each other. Stealing by sex is the easiest. people cannot resist giving attention and/or body to anyone who coddles them, so ... various predators abuse that.

So gumiho is basically an immature person who lives by the above theft.

FL actress perfect acts a college student brat

ML is scary spookey with that spookey creepy smile so he is a perfect gumiho

Satisfying to watch and bingeworthy!

As someone who really liked the webtoon that the show was based on, I was really satisfied with the first two episodes. Although there were some cuts that I found awkward and a bit cringy, I think the show is worth watching. The casting was also PERFECT. I loved Lee Hye Ri in Reply 1988 so I guess I'm a bit biased, but casting her for Lee Dam was genius. She nailed all the scenes that made me laugh in the webtoon as well. Kang Han Na was also superb and brought a different side to her character which really surprised me (the good kind of surprise). I also liked Lee Dam's relationship with the two male leads. I haven't decided which male lead I like more yet. Anyway, if you want something light-hearted and funny. Watch it!
(Side note: Honestly, I highly recommend putting it off or saving episodes first so you can binge watch it. I'm dying to watch the next episodes now and I hate how I have to wait for more episodes.)

A 1000 Years Old Charming Gumiho

Since this drama remained beautiful, interesting and entertaining in its entirety, from episode 1 to episode 16, then I will simply repeat my initial impression from episode 1.

How can I say this using the most simplest words in the English dictionary…?
I simply loved this drama.
What a world of difference between “My Roommate is a Gumiho” and “Doom at Your Service.”
From A to Z… The writing, the casting, the general acting, the directing and THE COMICAL LINES were on point.
I am so happy that I waited for the full completion before I started it.
My Roommate is a Gumiho has become my third favorite Gumiho’s storyline after…
- Gu Family Book
- Gumiho: Tale of the Fox's Child

FUNNY AS HELL

I think that if you find the genres of romance and fantasy interesting you'll like this drama. It gives me very much DAYS vibes maybe combined with some aspects of Goblin so as a reference if you liked the two dramas I previously mentioned, you'll most likely enjoy this too.
This drama has a nice plot (as far as I can tell from the six episodes that have aired) and I believe it will get more interesting as one new character seems to be joining the story. Im really hoping for a nice and happy ending :) (UNLIKE YOU KNOW WHICH FANTASY-ROMANCE DRAMA THAT AIRED IN 2016!!!)
AHHH important note: you will laugh soooooo much in every episode.
Once again, I'm reviewing about the six episodes that have aired, so if you're reading this from the future and it gets boring or somebody dies (GOD PLEASE NO) please dont blame me!! and gooooo watch it rn!!!!!
PS: My only complaint is that it's still airing and I like to bingeeeeee
PS #2: I'm wathing on viki if you're wondering :)))

worst kdrama i've watched

Honestly, this drama was pretty bad. It was boring and I just can't stand the ML face he's not handsome. The FL is annoying she's trying way too hard to be funny. I forced myself to watch it, because of the good reviews. Kdramas are becoming disapoiting this days.

The FL should have chosen the SML he's way more handsome and interesting than the ML. Don't waste ur time on this one. You'll be disapointed.

I've never seen a character as annoying as the FML. She's not even pretty but she's acting like she's better than everyone else. She got way too much attitude.

Drama I thought I would love..

It really started off good. I like FL characterization and I don't where it lost but i lost idea of continuing this drama. I feel like it might be an overrated drama or fantasies are just not for me. I really not sure what I know is that this was not for me. AND YES I LEFT IT IN THE MIDDLE.

Highly recommended

I wasn’t sure what to expect but after reading some raving reviews about it, I decided to give a try. And it’s a pleasant surprise. It’s a refreshing blend of mystery, fantasy, romance, etc. I certainly didn’t expect to laugh aloud at Hyeri’s comedic antics and gestures at episode 2. Almost had me in tears. Yes, indeed Jang Ki Yong is not your average gumiho. He is polite, composed, poised and charming. Wait till he meets Lee Hyeri, goofy, unrefined, unpolished with a heart of gold. Both of them shine in their roles. Bae In Hyuk is wow. Where did he come from? And all other supporting casts are equally good. Tune in for more!

Superb!!

Awesome plot, great cast, lovely soundtrack. Waiting for more!! Loving it. The chemistry between the leads is excellent from the first moment. The acting of the entire cast is fabulous. The dresses and fashion is totally new. I have seen Jang ki yong in Come and hug me, i knew he would be a great fit for the series, seeing the first episode only confirmed it. I absolutely love Hyeri and her expressions. The entire cast is superb! Love from Canada!! Good luck!! Very excited to watch the entire series.

AS OF NOW

So far i love how the story has been plotted......the cast shows a great impact to the characters....their acting from the dialogue, expression and the charm tends to make you feel like you are actually watching the scene on set....i love to see more exciting events or plots coming in to this drama...as of now i am really wondering why did Shin Woo-yeo (Jang Ki-yong) still holding Lee Dam (Hyeri) that he already knows how to take the fox marble from Lee Dam's possession...Does it because he's hoping that Lee Dam is the key to make his wish of becoming a human come true? Or does he already falling from her? That is what we need to find out... so if you havent given this drama a time to watch, i greatly recommend it..i promise this is worth watching😁😁😁

I love to see how this drama would end but i wish this drama would last a pretty long time that i am expecting more episode and season

A supersweet and wise story

Because I have become a huge fan of Jang Ki Young (after Now, we are breakin up, Dynamite Kiss), I discovered this K-drama. So glad as this is a beautiful story, great acting and feel good romantic one. Both leads but also the second leads are supernice to watch. Also great to see Park Kyoung Hye acting a normal person. She has been in roles with exaggerations and has annoyed me. The best part is when the love lines of famous books are cited, such a wonderful reminder and it makes the drama so wise. The only disturbance is that most of the fellow students went through plastic surgery, rather the bad ones. People do not look like this in Korea. But just ignore this and focus on the romance
