Does anybody have any theories on why Master Lee is just sitting on the sidelines as all this sh*ts going down?…
My theory is that the essence/point of the story is to see if The Kings Star & Naksu are the destined ones to be responsible for the Ice Stone. This is all a test for them both. For her, can she give up vengeance, give up being strong, the most powerful….. to save the people around her (like she did today) For Uk, it’s can he also give up power, give up being a king, give up everything to save who he loves. Can they sacrifice great power & eternal life etc to safeguard daeho, safeguard the ice stone.
I think the Crown Prince meant that the real Queen is not his mother, as in he is the son of a concubine that…
But couldn’t he also be saying that because the current queen is the soul shifter ie: that’s not his real mom.
Honestly I made my original comment as sort of an LOL @ how unsentimental he is not as some criticism or even major commentary but now I’m also wondering what he actually meant since I thought he was just referring to the shifter not being his bio mom.
Yeah I’m super reluctant to believe the frozen body theory.
The main reason I don’t think they will make og Naksu the lead for part 2 is because most watchers are casual watchers. They aren’t obsessed with details and the intricacies and following every theory like we are, they have spent 20 episodes invested in the physical body of JSM and Uk and for the vast majority of the audience they have not shown enough differentiation of the soul vs body with OG Naksu scenes that it would be entirely too stark of a transition for audiences. IMO based on other previous body swaps, they use both bodies /actors regularly throughout to remind the audience visually of the original person. In AOS they have literally almost never done this, and my belief is that part of the story is Naksu sacrificing her previous life as Naksu for love. And that includes sacrificing the body which is gone. It was a shadow. Had “the rumor” never come out people would not remotely be thinking she gets her old body back so I feel like people are twisting themselves into pretzels to find a way it would be true but I just think either it wasn’t true or it was purposely leaked to play with people /divert people.
All the casual watchers I know will flip TF out of the female lead is OG Naksu actress in a romantic relationship with Uk no matter if it’s the same soul. They just won’t like it and I can’t imagine TV executives not taking that into account 🤷🏻♀️
I do too. I think a lot of people have been duped. I also do not think Naksu will get her original body back because I don’t think any audience would accept it after recent episodes and but who knows!
Why do you think so? In episode 18, adult Bu Yeon seemed irritated by Naksu. Why would she sacrifice herself just…
This what I also think 🤷🏻♀️ She is blind without Naksu’s soul. With Naksu’s soul she is now able to see. As if Naksu is a missing piece. She is now testing Naksu to see if Naksu will make the right decisions, choose love over revenge, choose sacrifice over power, and is capable of being a priestess with ice stone powers. Kind of the same way Jang Uk is being tested by Hemp Master. Will their souls pass or fail? That’s the story.
she was scary! like she didn't seem like jby but quite literally the ice stone
She was insulted but I didn’t think she was scary but she was definitely ancient & powerful and knows how miserable having that much power is and is laughing at Naksu thinking she can handle it and all the sacrifices that come with it.
She definitely does not have JBY personality! I also agree that she’s either Jin-Seol-Ran(the first priestess of the actual ice stone or they are the same thing! )
No, I got an impression that adult Bu-Yeon was annoyed by Naksu's arrogant thoughts and is not happy she's using…
If you say so 🤷🏻♀️ I think they were being pretty obvious /heavy handed that the adult version was *different* from the child and could be the Original Priestess Jin-SeolRan.
No, I got an impression that adult Bu-Yeon was annoyed by Naksu's arrogant thoughts and is not happy she's using…
But it’s been repeatedly said Bu-Yeon is overly extremely nice (like the child version) Sol-I said she was absurdly nice ….. so that’s not BY personality to be insulted /annoyed. That’s more like Naksu’s real personality not Bu Yeons TBH. So it might be OG original Priestess after she’s seen 200 years with the ice stone.
About ice stone, there is only one right?1st, Master Seo Gyeong gave it to Jinyowon for his lover. 2nd, Lady Jin…
I think there *were* more than one 200 years ago but Master Seo destroyed them all except one. Either that or there was always just one. In the current timeline there is only one and your chain of custody seems accurate.
Notice how inside the ice stone little JBY says “WE did not lose the ice stone this time.” Not I ……. But WE…… 🤔
And notice how Big JIN has a different personality than little JBY……..
And how BIG JIN (is she Jin Seol-Ran? Not JBY?) is so over being human and is like “use my body ha ha you are going to be miserable”
It seems like she would be happy to let her use her body for life as long as she is willing to deal with the sacrifices being the most powerful priestess requires 🤷🏻♀️
Does anyone think that the adult version MD/Naksu saw inside the Ice Stone who was insulted by the relic comment was OG JIN PRIESTESS (Jin SeolRan) and not JBY?
