Synopsis

One night many, many years ago, long before anyone lived nearby, a very strange thing happened ? a flying saucer crash-landed into a hilltop, which happened to be the home of a curious young kumiho, or fox spirit. Today, even as the city crawls up the side of the mountain, they?re still there. And when Mr. Kang brings his class of misfits to a retreat up in the hilltop woods, the aliens from the saucer can?t resist giving them a scare, while the mischievous, shape-shifting kumiho, Yobi, can?t resist investigating the kids. In fact, she finds herself falling in love with one boy in particular, Geum-yee. Yobi?s masquerade is a barrel of fun, until a fierce and implacable hunter crashes into everyone?s lives. Things are about to get even stranger in Yobi?s world. And when the truth about her fate becomes clear to Yobi, maybe heartbreaking as well.
