It was Bu Yeon's soul. She told Naksu how dare a soul living off HER (Bu Yeon's) body thinks she is a relic.
Ikr, right? But she sounded so eerily intimidating and authoritative in that scene, not what you'd expect from supposedly nice to a fault Bu-Yeon. There's a theory circulating now that maybe her soul is Jin ancestor's soul that was either reincarnated or sealed in the ice stone by Songrim leader that Jang Kang used later to help mama Jin give birth.
Not a reincarnation. Jang Gang "saved" Bu Yeon as a child by performing Alchemy Of Souls, putting Jin Seolran's…
I doubt Yul had anything to with it, he's too by the book - he doesn't know illusions and won't have anything to do with duping someone else's body. And the body on the pyre was shown up close - it was really her. However, if it was a dupe there is one guy who could have pulled it off - Jin Mu. He's unscrupulous, so getting a body is not a problem for him, and he knows illusion spells. However, he has no reason to do it. On the contrary, he really wanted to get rid of Naksu once and for all, especially her body, so that she won't return if she managed to soul shift successfully. And what Yul wanted from Naksu was most likely to convince Uk to come with him, she'll tag along automatically that way. He thought he'd protect them that way. Also, judging by part 2 leaked photos and videos Uk and Yul are back together. And if Seo uncle will be in part 2, they may indeed travel to Seo fortress.
So all in all, I think her body really is ash. So either they gonna pull it out of thin air with the help of the ice stone or whatever, or that rumor was bs to begin with.
About both actresses for part 2, as much as I want it to happen, it will be another crazy complicated thing. Imagine…
I agree. I already said earlier that I believe this kind of twist works well only in the novels, not on screen where people get attached to actors faces, not just their characters. This is gonna be awkward af, if true. Even Uk now likes Mu-Deok as a whole, not just her eyes.

🤔That's actually a pretty cool idea. Much better than reincarnation. It was said that he did save one stone to supposedly save his love. Maybe it did somehow transmigrated from the ice stone to mama Jin's unborn baby. Gotta wonder if that's how it will end for Naksu - she'll get ejected into the ice stone and part 2 will be about trying to bring her back to life?
She didn't even know Jang Uk likes her until he kissed her lol
Even though he told her he did prior to that 🤣 Somehow she gets dumber with each episode. What is it? Is it the Jin body? They are all dumbasses there. Or did she get so used to act as dumb but very loyal maid Mu-Deok she turned off her brain too to be more believable?
I think Jin Bu Yeon is a immortal divine priestess which her soul will exist forever and she doesn't need her…
That would be a nice cop out if Naksu were to keep her body so that nobody'd feel bad. Otherwise this is still a big problem to resolve - if people will know Naksu's a soul shifter they will want her gone from that body, especially mama Jin. We'll see how it pans out.
Ugh, I hate reincarnation+fate plots, tbh. Takes away any individual agency from characters actions. And so far…
Again, there is no indication that reincarnation is a thing in this drama. And soul shifting with hwansu from baby to baby through the ages is just ridiculous. Also, usually when there is reincarnation in kdramas it involves the leads. The real lead is Naksu, not Bu-Yeon. And her soul has nothing to do with Jin or Seo clan.

What this has to do with reincarnation? More likely it's just that history repeats itself when ice stones are involved. Will the heroes learn from past mistakes of the ancestors or not remains to be seen.
Here is my theory of the overarching plot of this series.:Jin Buyeon is the reincarnation of Jin Seolran but Jang…

I just need to share my appreciation for Heo Yoonok! The girl is so sweet and never did anything wrong!
More like:...and never did anything. Period. 🤣 Even in today's episode, I forgot she was even there with the guys, her character's presence is practically nonexistent in this drama. She's just there to third wheel on OTP couple.
