Geum Bok, a naïve aspiring actor from the countryside, moves to Seoul — only to be scammed and kissed by Bi Hyeong, Dokkaebi — the goblin king. Uniquely able to transfer energy to Bi Hyeong safely, Geum Bok is brought into their home by loyal bodyguard Gil Dal, leading to an unusual three-man cohabitation. Geum Bok becomes Bi Hyeong's “spirit lunchbox,” while Bi Hyeong acts as a "ghost repellent" for Geum Bok. Hoping to improve his appearance, Geum Bok visits a plastic surgery clinic, where he meets Doctor Ji Gwi — a gumiho, the mythical nine-tailed fox. Ji Gwi follows Geum Bok home, intending to seduce him, but instead unexpectedly reunites with his ancient love, Gil Dal. As misunderstandings deepen, Geum Bok becomes a target for vengeful ghosts due to his kiss with Bi Hyeong. In this fantasy romance laced with horror and suspense, Geum Bok must navigate the obsessive desires of three supernatural beings. (Source: BCWW) Edit Translation

A Fun and Enchanting Start with Irresistible Chemistry
The series kicks off with steamy action in the very first minutes, immediately setting the tone. I also loved the cartoon animation at the beginning, which cleverly explains the storyline and adds real depth to the series.While the plot is a little weird and confusing at times, I found myself really enjoying this series. The actor playing Geum Bok is absolutely adorable and gorgeous, and his chemistry with Bi Hyeong, the Dokkaebi Goblin King, makes them a perfect pairing.
Overall, it’s such a fun and light BL to watch.
folklore meets BL, but it failed to deliver.
I like a premise where fantasy/folklore is part of the story and in the beginning they did well. Till episode 4 they had an animated intro which did explain bits of the tale which played out 1000 years ago. With ep 5 this part was gone and we had to wait till ep 9 where a lot of the background was explained. This episode was the best of the series, but I felt they should have given us more background. The part of the BL was also a long time in the background and overall I think the couples lacked the chemistry needed to "sell" it to us. It got better in the later episodes but imho it was not enough. I would have liked to have seen more of the past and less in the current time.In the finale we got a quite satisfying happy end for the main-couple, but the side-couple was just a 2 minute insert without any details or depth. Overall I felt the series lacked a constant pace, some episodes felt a bit streched and genereally I missed the focus of both folklore & BL. We also have an antagonist and with his smirk in the last scene (and with a scene before), there is even an open end for a season 2.
Production quality was very good, which felt a bit of a waste considering the script. I think the actors did lack chemistry with each other. They did kiss, the side couple landed in bed together (but we did not see what happened there), which was fine, but I never felt a longing for each other. So I'm a bit disappointed with the outcome of this series, because they have tried to do a good show, but I think the script was too weak to do so. For me it's an ok show but not a show I will watch again, except if there is a season 2 to refresh my memory. This show will not leave a lasting impression.
