The Kumiho is a creature from Korean folklore, often depicted as a nine-tailed fox. Traditionally, it is known for its ability to transform into a beautiful woman to lure unsuspecting victims. The Kumiho is often associated with themes of seduction and danger, as it is believed to consume human hearts or livers. In modern interpretations, the Kumiho has evolved into a more complex character, sometimes portrayed as a tragic figure seeking redemption. This mythical being appears in various forms of media, including films, television shows, and literature, reflecting its enduring presence in Korean culture.
