FEMALE GUMIHO AS A MAIN CHARACTER!!!!
Finally we got a female gumiho and the actress' work is insane usually. The character was built a bit cringily and annoyingly, but in the end I personally grew to like her character. The plot was a bit messy but I turned a blind eye to it and enjoyed it with an ease. Also the other characters were quite good, the other female eight tailed fox was so cute I could've died:DWas this review helpful to you?
Indeed interesting
UPDATED:I am here updating my review after episode 4. Am I still hooked, yes definitely! Begging for SBS/Netflix to release all episodes now please! Such torturous wait 😂 The storyline/plot is getting extremely interesting.
This drama is NOT for viewers who expects typical romcom, fantasy, straightforward , predictable storyline, if that's you, please do not watch this drama. There are a lot of plot twist, unpredictable, surprises which make it entertaining and interesting.

Initial review:
Watched episode 1..and hooked from the first second (including the intro.....LOL).
It contains interesting plot and the gumiho behaves like the world revolves around her....and what is she with $$$ ! 😂
Kim Hye Yoon again convinced me of her execution of the role. Lomon and the other casts, are superb, especially the guy whom played the villain.
I am eagerly waiting for episode 2 !

I am intrigued ❤️
After waiting over 12 months for this show, I honestly can’t put into words how excited I am. From episodes 1–2 alone, No Tail to Tell delivers such a strong and captivating introduction to its characters: their personalities, quirks, and subtle nuances are immediately intriguing. The pacing feels just right, and that siyeol and wooseok plot twist at the end of episode 2? Completely unexpected. I’m still shocked and fully seated for what’s coming next.So far, the storytelling has been solid, and I’m really looking forward to seeing how the characters grow and evolve as the series progresses. This is definitely shaping up to be one of those shows you can’t help but get invested in.
PS: Eunho is incredibly exciting to watch…every scene with her is a highlight 🥰

Lead actors - good job! Cultural zingers!
The lead actors did a good job. FL in portraying and impatient uninformed and entitled character. ML portrayed as patient, caring, tolerant, naively confused and slightly amused by the FL’s tantrums. It was amusing when the ML explains that she is from abroad hence … impolite. A zinger about western behavior?The narrative was trite. I fast forwarded the ghoulish parts after grasping the plot direction. Also fast forwarded the hysterical over acting coach parts. It got very philosophical at the end which pleased me. The ending turned out to be predictable and last scene toooo staged!
This series about male athletes and a male soccer team must have given the casting director a field day. Would this story be of interest if the soccer team had been women? I would enjoy that turn around.

Execution is Everything
I’ll keep this short because I’ve already wasted enough time on this show. I only made it through the first episode, and I seriously doubt it will magically get better over the next five episodes. Unless you have a serious patience, skip it.I won’t say this “isn’t for me”—I’m literally the target audience. I love fantasy. I liked the premise. I love confident, classy female leads. I love layered, kind, aspirational main characters. This show had all the ingredients to be my dream show… and somehow it managed to dump them on the floor, sweep them back up, and light them on fire. Execution-wise, it’s a disaster.
Let’s start with the acting. I don’t know the cast, and normally I give actors the benefit of the doubt—but this is hard. The female lead is insufferable, and her performance does nothing to help. It’s painfully over-the-top and unrealistic. I suspect the problem isn’t entirely her—direction clearly played a hand. I’m willing to give her another chance in Lovely Runner, but here… yikes.
The dialogue? On-the-nose to the extreme. Characters repeatedly tell each other things they already know, purely to make sure the audience “gets it.” Exposition doesn’t have to feel like a lecture, people.
Visually, the show is fine—but the special effects look cheap. Except for her tail—that part actually looks amazing. And the sound effects? At times it felt like I’d been transported to an ’80s sitcom.
Honestly, I can’t tell you how it might turn out later because I couldn’t stomach finding out. I’m fairly confident I’m not missing anything worth my time.

Trop de bazar pour une histoire qui aurait pu briller...
Franchement… je suis trop déçue !!! 😭 J’attendais ce drama avec impatience parce que les romances fantastiques c’est totalement mon truc 😍 Une gumiho 🦊 qui refuse de devenir humaine ?!? j'ai trouvé l'idée originale... Ils ont fait le choix de casser tout les codes, et ça m'a bien intrigué sur le papier du moins...Le drama raconte l’histoire d’Eun-ho, une gumiho 🦊 rebelle qui ne veut surtout pas devenir humaine... Mais après un accident avec Kang Si-yeol, un footballeur, elle finit par être "transformée" en humaine, ce qui forcément chamboule complètement sa vie 💥. De là naît une relation "ennemy to lovers"… 🌶️
Le problème, c’est que ça ne m’a jamais vraiment embarquée… Malgré mon capital sympathie pour Kim Hye‑yoon et Lomon, qui sont tous les deux de très bons acteurs... Mais ensemble, j’ai pas ressenti l’alchimie que j'attendais 😬. Je regardais leur relation évoluer sans papillons, sans tension... Les dialogues ne m'ont pas aidé... je trouve qu'ils sonnent trop souvent "juvéniles", c'est maladroits, j'ai trouvé que ça alourdissait le visionnage au fil des épisodes. J’attendais plus de profondeur émotionnelle, surtout avec un concept pareil... Genre, être forcée de devenir humaine, ça aurait dû être intense, conflictuel…
Et alors le plus gros souci pour moi... il y a trop d’intrigues... 😵💫 Trop de sous-histoires, trop de choses qui s’ajoutent… ça aurait pu être fun… mais à force de tout vouloir explorer, la romance principale (celle pour qui j'étais venu 😅) perd de sa force, elle est trop diluée dans tout ce bazar narratif, et ce qui aurait du être le cœur de la série finit par devenir secondaire... Bref, cette dilution m'a laissé un sentiment d’amertume... Je voulais vibrer pour une romance fantastique, mais on m'a donné quelque chose de trop léger, pas assez consistant émotionnellement 😕.
J’aurais mille fois préféré une histoire plus simple, quitte à être "trop" classique. Genre : une gumiho 🦊 qui ne veut absolument pas devenir humaine, mais qui finit par tomber amoureuse et remettre en question ses convictions... Oui c’est vu et revu, mais ça m'aurais peut-être plus fait vibrer 🤷🏼♀️.
Au final, je dirais que la série tente d’être légère et originale, mais elle souffre d’une écriture qui manque de constance... Son rythme s’essouffle au fil des épisodes 🥱. C'est dommage, parce que l’univers avait un gros potentiel... mais pour moi, ça n'a pas suffit à sauver l’ensemble.. J’ai regardé jusqu’au bout… mais sans jamais être investie à 100% ✌🏻

Fantasía correcta con un final apresurado
Es un K-drama de fantasía bueno, pero nada fuera de este mundo. El problema que le encuentro es el mismo de muchos dramas recientes: empiezan muy fuertes y conforme pasan los episodios se van haciendo un poco tediosos.Las actuaciones de todos me gustaron mucho, muy buen trabajo del elenco en general. Algo que disfruté bastante fue cómo manejaron a la protagonista, ese cambio de odiar la vida humana a empezar a entender las pequeñas cosas que los humanos disfrutan, tanto lo bueno como lo malo, me pareció bien logrado. También me gustó la historia del protagonista y cómo lo fueron desarrollando para que terminara convirtiéndose en un hombre que resuelve. Y el romance en general me gustó, hubo química y se sentía natural entre ellos.
Ahora, lo malo. Hubo escenas que para MI se hicieron muuuuy tediosas, la verdad. Y aunque agradezco que fueran solo 12 capítulos porque 16 la historia se hubiera sentido muy pesada, justo por eso me hubiera gustado que aprovecharan mejor el tiempo. Sobre todo al final, cuando ella regresa... sentí que todo se resolvió muy rápido, se me hizo un poco abrupto. La relación de los protagonistas después de eso merecía más desarrollo para que no se sintiera tan precipitado.
Conclusión: ¿Vale la pena ver 12 cap? Para MI, sí. No es la gran cosa, no es de mis favoritos en el género de fantasía, pero entretiene y tiene sus momentos bonitos. Si les gusta la fantasía y no buscan algo demasiado profundo, pueden darle una oportunidad. 🤓☝🏻

Ho aspettato un pochino prima di buttare giù due righe e a questo punto mi sento pronta per dire che questo drama poteva essere decisamente meglio. E' un calderone dove vengono buttate un sacco di cose che alla fin fine non riescono più di tanto a tenere in piedi la storia. Si parla di calcio, di vendetta personale, seconda vita, cosa sarebbe successo se, cosa vuol dire essere umani, rimpianto, rifiuto, maledizioni, caccia alla volpe, amori vari, etc.. Davvero tanta, troppa roba.
E non sarebbe stata neanche una cosa malvagia se tutti questi argomenti avessero avuto la degna conclusione.
Sul finale avrei parecchie domande.
Parlando solo della relazione amorosa, loro due mi sono piaciuti e in generale tutti gli attori sono stati bravi ma è proprio la scrittura della serie che ad una certa non ha alcun senso.
Mi aspettavo molto di più, mi aspettavo che lo avrei amato come ho fatto con My Roomate Is A Gumiho, invece me l'ha fatto rimpiangere e venire ancora più voglia di tornare tra quelle righe. Che tristezza.

Una Protagonista Rivoluzionaria: la gumiho di Kim Hye-yoon
Se stai cercando una ventata di aria fresca nel panorama dei fantasy romance, "No Tail to Tell” è il drama che non puoi assolutamente perdere.Il vero cuore pulsante di questa serie è Kim Hye-yoon, che interpreta una gumiho decisamente fuori dagli schemi. Dimentica la classica creatura tragica in cerca di umanità: la protagonista è una "MZ Gumiho" chic, eccentrica e orgogliosamente cinica, che fa di tutto per evitare di diventare umana.
Kim Hye-yoon conferma di essere una delle attrici più versatili della sua generazione. In questo drama riesce a rendere amabile un personaggio volutamente arrogante e distaccato. La sua capacità di passare da momenti di pura commedia a espressioni di gelida superiorità è semplicemente magistrale.
La protagonista é un’anti-eroina e le sfumature dí questo personaggio lo rendono incredibilmente fresco e imprevedibile rispetto ai soliti canoni dei K-drama.
La scintilla con il co-protagonista Lomon (che interpreta un calciatore narcisista) è immediata. Il contrasto tra la natura caotica di lei e il rigore di lui crea dinamiche hate-to-love che tengono incollati allo schermo.
“No Tail to Tell" non è solo una commedia magica; è un'esplorazione brillante dell'identità e del libero arbitrio, confezionata con una narrazione vivace e moderna. Se la trama fantasy ti incuriosisce, la performance di Kim Hye-yoon ti farà restare: è una vera "promenade" di talento che ridefinisce il mito della volpe a nove code per il pubblico contemporaneo.
Anche gli altri attori meritano sicuramente un elogio per la loro performance. Ottimo cast!

Maduro y Nostálgico
En lo personal, me gustó mucho el drama, razones la actuación de los personajes principales y como el cambio a lo largo de los episodios es notorio, dejando de lado un mensaje sobre la humanidad, pq ser humano es "descubrirnos" y bien el amor no es todo, llega a ser un factor importante del cambio o ese impulso a ser mejores, me dió eso, transparencia, madurez y con un capitulo de mío nostalgia sentí el dolor como no lo había sentido, tuve que pausar varias veces pq me sentía vacía y lloraba sin parar, los mensajes que da, la envidia, los celos, el odio, el enojo, el efecto mariposa y sobre todo la transformación. También nos muestra lo que tanto se menciona "los humanos somos diferentes" cambiantes y cada uno con la oportunidad de cambiar o mantenerse como están, Lo ame, a pesar de malos comentarios, no me quedé con eso y me arriesgue la mejor decisiónWas this review helpful to you?
