The real definition of the word kumiho is a mythical creature in Korean folklore and legends that is a fox that lives 1,000 years and therefore turns into a kumiho, which, simply put, is a nine-tailed fox. The kumiho can shapeshift into a human whenever it wants, but it may still have fox ears or a fox tail visible as a result of truly being a fox. It has to eat livers of humans to avoid dissolving into bubbles in a thousand years, but a kumiho can become human forever and stop having to eat humans if the kumiho can refrain from eating humans and/or human liver for 1,000 days.
