Which is still not known whether it will be produced, just that the script is being written. And it's not known what it will be about - continuation of the plot, new plot, same characters, new characters...
Honestly with 20 episodes it is already quite big, but I never underestimate writers inability to concisely wrap up the story 🙄. I'd actually prefer this story to be self contained, I hate waiting years for new seasons. And in worst case scenarios showrunners get ahead of themselves, run into financial/scheduling problems and planned seasons don't get released and we are left with dangling cliffhangers.

I'm ok with combined souls, but it's still just a wishful thinking. For all we know it may end up badly, with Naksu ejected from Mu-Deok's body and dying bodiless. I really hope not, but still.

I agree.

If you watched it, how do you find it ok for Uk to end up with some random girl he barely knows, while the person, with whom he shared all the troubles and really fell in love, leaves him forever? It really left a sour note in Mr. Queen ending, I hope it won't be copied here.

Go watch Mr. Queen (similar plot btw), or From Now On, Showtime! , or many others. There is only one fate for SMLs - they get friendzoned in the end.
And here there’s nothing substantial even going on yet, you’re really getting ahead of yourself. Let’s just watch more episodes to see who ends up with whom, if any.

There are a lot of dramas where FL has a childhood crush on somebody else, but ends up with ML anyway. Doesn’t mean anything here. And so far there is no real Mu-Deok person that we’ve seen, don’t get ahead of yourself trying to ditch the real FL which is Naksu person. For now at least. Whether she gets separated from Mu-Deok's body, gets souls combined or whatever else, it's still not known. But one thing is certain - ML is already jealous. Which is a big warning sign for all the SMLs, lol.

You want FL gone? This cunning, funny and determined FL? Naksu is FL, not whoever Mu-Deok originally was. What you want is lame, imho.

So, Jin clan's missing elder daughter - Naksu or Mu-Deok?

Evidence for Naksu:
- she was addressed as lady when she was a child, meaning she's was of noble birth;
- there was a massacre and she is presumed missing or dead, just like the case with missing Jin clan's daughter;
- Jin clan is matriarchal, so her father's position wasn't that of a leader - he was a constellations recorder;
- all this talk of birds and eggs in a high nest in need of sheltering - Jin clan's matriarch seems to be very fond of birds, she has lots of them in cages, and she contemplates them longingly. Maybe Naksu used this metaphor to talk about her childhood;
- she was a powerful mage;
- Naksu is not her real name, but a nickname.

Evidence for Mu-Deok:
- her weak body somehow still able to keep Naksu alive and not become petrified, even though she lacks energy - was she a mage?;
- something strange about her soul, it wasn't ejected from her body - again, was she a mage?;
- she can sense Jin clan's artifacts for what they are even when they're hidden in a box. This surprised Naksu, however if she's the daughter she may have been too young to know about this ability, or it may not be Jin clan's ability but the body's she inhabits;
- judging by the preview she can open (unless she was lured into it) Jin clan's artifact vault, even though only clan members can do it. However, again, if the daughter is Naksu the vault may be reacting to her soul, not the body.

So far I think there is more evidence for Naksu, however the last two points for Mu-Deok are pretty strong, but only if it's not Naksu's abilities. Could there have been two girls missing from about the same time? I kinda doubt it.

FL’s younger brother Soo Ho and her female best friend Ok Hee.

Stalker being evil since childhood is not unheard of in k-dramas. Flower of Evil plot comes to mind.
But really, we can suspect anyone at this point, no hints about the real culprit were dropped yet.

Yea, they were a couple. But not much was going on there aside from them acting immature most of the time. I think they were there just for some comic relief.

It seems you can’t become a successful ML actor in SK if your height is less than 185cm. I’m not even joking.

My only theory so far is that it’s ML’s dead sister’s ghost. Like, she helps the leads reconnect and find her body.
It would be disappointing if it’s not gonna be explained at all.

So, does anybody has any theories about the Link?

Let’s hope it’s not like in Beyond Evil, where ML actor also starred. SML’s sister there was hit by a car by accident, then ran over again to the death, then entombed in the cellar of SML’s house, under his nose for 20 years.
I mean, I really hope not, but this can get very gruesome.

Yea, aside from some acting advice she and FL’s brother were pretty useless characters. People were laughing here in the comments that they were there for late episodes PPLs, lol.

If I recall correctly Her Private Life had more kisses and there was a bed scene? Crazy Love has more hugs than kisses, but ML needed them. But yea, the one in episode 11 with the ladder was pretty hot.

He also may be lying, trying to shift the blame on her, while himself is the culprit. The writer of this show pulled this trick in Suspicious Partner, so I wouldn't put it past her here as well. If this show follows the cookie cutter plot format, we're in for a few episodes of angst where ML is suspicious and is blaming FL. Also happened in Suspicious Partner, btw.

They have the same writer from Suspicious Partner for this show - this writer knows how to make a victim out of a sick villain.
