Around the Tiger

On a rain-soaked day in the mountains, Kyunghoon encounters a mysterious man weeping alone and clearly in need of assistance. Moved by compassion, he offers the stranger shelter for the night. When morning arrives, the man reveals his true identity as Naroo, a nine-tailed fox facing imminent death. To survive, Naroo makes an extraordinary request: he asks Kyunghoon to share his yang energy with him over the course of one hundred days. Despite the bizarre nature of the plea, Kyunghoon finds himself entirely unable to turn the fox away. As the two begin living together under this unusual arrangement, Kyunghoon grows increasingly captivated by Naroo’s sweet and endearing nature, drawn deeper into their shared daily life with each passing day. Yet, the bond forming between them extends beyond mere proximity. Naroo begins to notice that Kyunghoon’s gentle and kindhearted demeanor strongly echoes someone deeply precious from his own past. What initially appeared to be a chance encounter on a rainy mountain trail slowly reveals itself to be something far more significant, leaving both men to wonder whether their connection is truly a coincidence or part of a much larger, unseen fate.
