5	The story is about a genderbending Gumiho (Nine-tailed-Fox), who loses a bet in a game and loses all their tails. The Gumiho, Laon, goes down to Earth to search for his/her lost tails. Unfortunately, Laon's odd behavior causes lot of trouble down on Earth. Eventually, Laon finds a rather untrustworthy journalist by the name of Taeha Gwon who he/she believes will help with the search for the missing tails, whether Taeha likes it or not. The man also has his own secret past which [[TraumaInducedAmnesia he can't remember]], revolving around his (supposedly) dead girlfriend. He initially dismisses Laon as crazy, until he sees Laon go through a wall. After finding Laon again, Taeha agrees to help Laon and forces Laon to stick with one gender because Laon's gender bending is giving Taeha a case of {{squick}}.
