![]() ![]() Something about her gumiho nature remains, and it's causing problems. However, there is something deeply wrong with Miyoung-she's getting weaker by the day, and it isn't a sickness of this world. Gr 8 Up-After Miyoung's mother's death, Miyoung can't return to normal anymore than Jihoon can after the death of his grandmother. In usual fashion, Somin may have a thing or two to say about that. With few options remaining, Junu has an idea but it might require the ultimate sacrifice. The only way to repair the breach is to find the missing fox bead or for Miyoung to pay with her life. The loss of Miyoung’s fox bead has caused a tear between the world of the living and the world of the dead, and ghosts are suddenly flooding the streets of Seoul. But as the two try to figure out what could be between them, they discover their troubles aren’t over after all. Somin couldn’t deny the heat of their attraction. Junu was, at first, amused by her hostility toward him until he found himself inexplicably drawn to her. Somin thought he was an arrogant self-serving, conman. Somin and Junu didn’t exactly hit it off when they first met. The only one who seems ready to move forward is their not-so-favorite dokkaebi, Junu. But Jihoon is still grieving the loss of his grandmother, and Miyoung is distant as she grieves over her mother’s death and learns to live without her fox bead. After the events of Wicked Fox, Somin is ready to help her friends pick up the pieces of their broken lives and heal. ![]() ![]() Linked by a terrifying prophecy and caught between duty and fate, they must choose to either save their people or succumb to the bond that is forbidden to them.
