Lee Dam Meets Shin Woo Yeo the Nine-Tailed Fox

Shin Woo Yeo (Jang Ki Yong) is a gumiho (or nine-tailed-fox) who has been living for more than 999 years. In order to fulfill his desire to become a human, he needs to collect human energy in a bead.

But one night, he accidentally met Lee Dam (Hyeri), a university student who was struggling to calm her drunk friend, Do Jae Jin (Kim Do Wan) who was heartbroken from his ex-girlfriend. He unintentionally puked in front of Shin Woo Yeo's expensive car due to too much alcohol.

Lee Dam was dumbfounded seeing her friend wasted. She apologized to Shin Woo Yeo and promised to reimburse the damages in his car. But he refused to accept the payment after knowing that she is still a student.

She was grateful for Shin Woo Yeo's kindness and even said that he is a true angel. When she was about to pick her friend, Lee Dam accidentally tripped. Fortunately, Shin Woo Yeo was quick to catch her and everything went in slow motion.

Lee Dam accidentally pushed Shin Woo Yeo's stomach which made him release the bead in his body and passed it through Lee Dam.

The two were startled by the unexpected twist of fate. The next thing she knew, Lee Dam was already inside Shin Woo Yeo's house. He confessed what had happened last night and introduced himself as a gumiho and he needed to protect the bead in Lee Dam's body. He suggests that they should live together to monitor the bead and to take good care of Lee Dam, since there are high possibilities that she is prone to danger since she acquired the marble of the gumiho.
