Alchemy of Souls Season 2: Light and Shadow

time waste..
It was a completely unnecessary season; they made us watch 10 episodes for nothing. There's no trace of the enjoyment of the first season. I wish the first season had ended when both of them died. If the first season got 10 points, the second season gets 5. I watched it hoping it would end at 1.5x speed. The lead female character had no energy like Jang Uk. I didn't like her acting either. There's no sexual attraction at all. I kept looking for Mudoek. Naksu has been wandering around oblivious to herself all season long. Jang Uk, if you loved Mudoek so much, why did you immediately fall for a foreign girl? Despite all the signs, you couldn't recognize her! It wasn't believable at all. The attraction between the leads wasn't convincing at all. The bloodworm incident was the only interesting thing in the entire season. I was so angry. After a great first season, this was really unnecessary.Was this review helpful to you?

inappropriate relationship
The chemistry between Eun Tak and Kim Shin wasn't great. I think because Eun Tak was a high school student in most of the series, it gave off a bit of a pedophilia vibe to their relationship. The relationship between Sunny and the Angel of Death was much more watchable. After 9 years passed and Eun Tak turned 29, her chemistry with Kim Shin became a bit more even. I really struggled to watch until the last three episodes and thought I wouldn't be able to finish it. I loved Wang Yeo. His acting was so realistic. I wish he hadn't cried so much. Every time he cried, my heart broke. I can't wait to watch this actor's other dramas. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.Was this review helpful to you?
safe zone
A fun, non-distressing series. I don't understand why it's 18+. I think it's 13+ or so. It deals with family and relationships. It's quite naive. The acting was good. A complete safe zone.We see what people of all ages experience in their neighborhood lives. The romantic relationship between the leads convinced me. Plus, they all have such beautiful smiles :)
While our lives are chaotic enough, watching TV series like this that don't upset or tire us helps me clear my head……………………………………………..

casting is amazing
It's a comedy-drama production, sometimes entertaining and sometimes emotional. The casting of the crown prince and Ra-on is ideal. I was convinced by their chemistry. Additionally, the rest of the casting was excellent. My favorite is Kim Byung-yeon. Kwak Dong-yeon looks great and does his role very well. I really enjoyed watching him. I finished it in about four days. It's been one of my favorite dramas lately, after My Demon. Kim Yo-jung is a very beautiful woman and actress. She did a great job in both dramas. Park Bo-gum is very likeable. This is the first time I've seen one of her works. I think I'll watch the Netflix series that came out this year, too.Was this review helpful to you?
not my favorite
I think there was a chemical incompatibility between the leads. Sa-ram suddenly falls in love with Tak Dong-gyung, who she doesn't really care about. He wasn't convincing at all. Tak Dong-gyung's acting was very fake. I found the casting unsuccessful in this regard. What appealed to me more in the series was the Cha Jo-ik and Na Ji-na aspect. I enjoyed and was curious while following their love triangle the most. The actor who played the brother role was successful. The story of the series was similar to My Demon. It was actually filmed 2-3 years before My Demon. It's as if the producers of My Demon said: "We can do better than this!" and they did. Whoever is stuck between the two should watch My Demon. And sorry not sorry but i didnt find Sa-ram handsome that much. It was annoying how they constantly tried to impose how handsome he was in the series.Was this review helpful to you?
love it
my demon is my first k-drama and im obsessed! i cant stop watching k-drama since then. i watched all song kang’s tv series. but my favorite is still my demon ( except navillera). SOUNDTRACKS are amaziiingg!! main and side roles are so suitable. I think gu-won is song kang’s best actor performance and I can't get over “yes, do do-hee” scene in the serie. OMG so romantic. If you are thinking of watching it, don't wait any longer. After you finish it, listen to the soundtrack on Spotify over and over again.Was this review helpful to you?
