No Tail to Tell Ep. 10

The tenth episode of No Tail to Tell delivered heavy tension as Pagun (played by Lee Joong-ok) pressured Kang Si-yeol (played by Lomon) to rectify his fixed lifespan, while Eun-ho (played by Kim Hye-yoon) struggled to fix the human fates tangled by her past mistakes.

1. Pagun’s Brutal Proposal: "Stab Your Beloved and Return"

Hyeon Woo-seok’s sudden heart attack was no accident. It was a crack in reality caused by the reversal of Kang Si-yeol's fate, who was originally destined to die before winter's end. Pagun handed Eun-ho a ritual dagger, commanding her to stab Si-yeol before Woo-seok dies to set destiny straight. Kill Si-yeol to return as a Gumiho, or perish with him—Eun-ho stands before the most cruel choice of her life.

2. A 0.01% Rare Cancer: Woo-seok’s Secret

As his memories returned, Woo-seok learned he had been diagnosed with a terminal illness: primary cardiac angiosarcoma. Even in the face of death, he first sought out his dear friend, Si-yeol. Fearing the sorrow it would bring Si-yeol, Eun-ho asked Woo-seok to keep the diagnosis a secret. She then began a strange deal, using Woo-seok’s "Black Card" to assist him and settle matters around Si-yeol.

3. "Hermione" Hye-rim: Restoring a Broken Life

Eun-ho discovered the existence of Hye-rim, whose life was ruined after losing her father due to Eun-ho’s past interference with fate. Seeing Hye-rim living a grueling life as a "Hermione" (working 48 hours a day in part-time jobs), a guilt-ridden Eun-ho used the Black Card to provide scholarships, repair her home, and cover her mother's hospital bills. As she cleared the debts of her past misdeeds, Eun-ho found herself falling deeper into human emotions.

4. [Shocking Ending] Jang Do-cheol’s Vajra Bell and Eun-ho’s Nightmare

Jang Do-cheol, who has swallowed various minor deities to capture the Eight-Tailed Fox, appeared on Mount Jiri. He threatened Eun-ho by ringing the "Vajra Bell"—an artifact no human should be able to use. Resonating with the sound, Eun-ho had a premonitory nightmare: she saw herself bleeding from a wound dealt by Si-yeol’s blade, whispering, "So, it ends like this after all." This dark omen suggests their romance is hurtling toward a tragic end.
