Yea, maybe some artifact. But clearly not something you can use multiple times, because that would invalidate the whole villains need for soul ejectors and alchemy of souls to move to younger bodies and live forever - who needs that when you can just create yourself a new body from scratch?

If she had the ice stone she wouldn't have run wild to the petrifying state. Just nope.
Also, he still had it inside him to revive himself at the pyre.
It's gonna be something else.

Those two women were confirmed to be Jinyowon servants, scroll below - there were even bts photos of them.
How they gonna revive her is unknown, atm. Also, why her when her body is ash and not Bu-Yeon who's just petrified is not known either.

It ends next week? Thank goodness, I was starting to get bored with this show, too slow and draggy.

This show is very boring, barely anything happens. I'm considering dropping it. And I don't care about sob stories for the sake of showing sob stories, or veeery slow "healing" stories. There are far more interesting and emotion inducing shows out there that did it right, Tomorrow, for example.

ML here is a very annoying emo tsundere - so dark and edgy, always acts annoyed at everything, like a lazy teenager who's mom asked him to do the chores, but secretly wants people to notice him. Yea, his life was shitty, but his aimlessness and self pity is getting on my nerves. His actor is wasted on this show. I feel kinda sorry for FL, her love prospects are either him or that wooden stick-in-the-mud doctor.

And his female counterpart that plays his self proclaimed girlfriend is even worse. I'm so pretty, but I hate it, I'm suicidial and want to die, but I gotta work for the mafia. Why? Just die already and don't drag ML into this.


Feel free to disagree, but whatever tear jerks showrunners were planning on getting from me didn't work here at all.

And it's back to 10 episodes, let's hope at least the date is correct 🤣

🤷‍♂️

It's certainly possible, she may even go inside Naksu's body for role reversal twist 🙄. Or she may go to some new unrelated body, So-i's, for example, lol. Dunno if it would solve anything though, because that would make her a soul shifter. Even Naksu, if she returns to her og body somehow, will still be a soul shifter, because that's what happened to Jang Kang and Gil Ju.

Yea, where is this info coming from?

This is soo good for us who are waiting, best news! Let's just hope quality won't suffer because it's so soon.

I've noticed it now as well. Dunno if it's good news for tightness of the plot though, because it may be the writers couldn't help themselves again with filler and love polygons.
Also, 12 episodes nowadays is a new format for a full season for quite a lot of dramas.

That's what people are afraid of right now - no resolution for Bu-Yeon character's big sub plot, which will be very disappointing.

Yes, they wanted to return Naksu to her og body for narrative reasons, actress choice has nothing to do with it.
One could argue that JSM did too good of a job and charmed the audience so much that nobody cares or wants Naksu to return to her og body now. However, if she did a poor job this show would have flopped in the first 20 episodes. There's no middle ground here. And clearly that's not something showrunners wanted either, since they ditched the initially chosen actress for having subpar skills for this role.

I agree about Bu-Yeon character being treated unfairly, if her plot won't be resolved in a meaningful way and she'll just die I'm gonna be pissed as well. However, JSM has nothing to do with it, she did her part as per the contract terms and that's it. This plot twist was planned from the start, after all. I'd love to see her in part 2 for the reasons you've mentioned and it will be awkward seeing FL in another body, but it remains to be seen whether it will be the cause of a flop.

🤷‍♂️ I hope at least her soul survives somehow, because otherwise it would just be a very sad tale about a girl who was used, abused and ditched with no remorse. Incomplete story.
Also, nobody knows how og Naksu's body will come alive since it's ash now. And why is it easier to revive her instead of intact Bu-Yeon's body. Speculations, speculations...

Not sure what they gonna do with Bu-Yeon character, but many people are angry with these news because they mean she won't get any closure to her big sub plot and will be dismissed just like that.

Translated excerpt concerning JSM's character:

No, they planned this plot twist from the start, her actress has nothing to do with it.

There was an article citing TvN officials that JSM won't be in part 2 in any capacity and that her character is petrified for good. Not sure how they gonna do it without her at all since Naksu at least needs to get separated from Bu-Yeon's body. Will they just narrate it or smth without showing anything? 🤦‍♂️That would be very lame.
