FINALLY, Still-cuts of Cho Yeon and Dang-gu. Of ccourse, the title of the article is heartbreaking: "Love-Hate X Couple Yoo Inso-Arin♥, Visual Matures 3 Years Later"😢😢
But this little nugget sounds interesting: 'the two form a complex and delicate relationship." So. . . . . they still have some sort of relationship. And we all know they eventually get married. 🥰🥰
I'm a minority opinion here on MDL, but tbh they are the only reason I am looking forward enough to watch AoS early (7:00 am for me) every Saturday and Sunday morning.
Off-topic: While everyone 💕's fictional characters Jang Uk and Naksu, I 💕💕💕Son Heung-min, captain of Korea's soccer team. Due to the tenderness of recent injury, Son has to wear a mask that covers around half of his face. Even with his mask, Son ultimately led South Korea to the Round of 16 with a 2-1 Upset against Portugal on 2 December (from Wiki). Since the USA is out, I'm rooting for Korea. 😊😊😊
PS: hoping the ChoDang photos/narrative drop Monday am.
Age gap thing was a plot hole, they won't take it seriously since it doesn't use as a plot device. Yeah why 3…
I guess I have always simplified it to:
JBY and Ju born 20-21 years ago; Naksu was ~5 years old at the time when she was kidnapped. 10 year later - Naksu is 15/16, JBY is 10 (actress was 10 at time of filming) and she drowns/disappeaers. In the end, I think writers have re-written/ignored the original timeline I agree that your list is the way it was in the beginning and these things no longer matter.

The actress was around 17-18 when she filmed AoS; Yul actor was 15 or so. Clearly they were teens and not simply 3-4 years ago. if you put it all together, the teens met up around the time Jin Bu-yeon "drowned' - 10 years ago.
Btw, depending on how Naksu will get her body back, if she gets it only after 3 years does that mean her age will…
I read somewhere on twitter that the traditional Korean period for mourning is 3 years. it could explain that Jang uk is still officially mourning and, for that matter, Cho-yeon and Mama Jin. i have no idea if that's why writers chose 3 years but it seems like a stupidly long time.
It's called Light and Shadow, but so far all teasers show only darkness and shadows. Are they gonna keep that…
Totally agree - the preview in August was exciting - Uk and the (assumed) soul shifter; the festival; quick view of all the main characters, including jin Mu. i've been looking forward to it (although not in hysterics like some 🤣🤣), but the three teasers don't provide me any reason to watch.
In June, Director park said: "“When Hong sisters were writing the script, we discussed so many interesting stories about DIFFERENT families, characters and their development. Unfortunately, I thought 20 episodes would not be enough to really show the strengths of the scriptwriters who create very entertaining and COMICAL stories. . . . . The scriptwriters are currently working on part two as well. Hopefully, we will have more time to EXPLORE EACH INDIVIDUAL CHARACTER in detail,” Park added. [CAPS my emphasis].
I don't think it's misirection. I think marketing/PR office decided to go all in on the heavy romance because - as the old adage goes - sex sells.
I think Jin Mu will probably use Yul’s uncle as well. Perhaps try to entice him to control Songrim as Songrim…
On this one point - You and I absolutely agree (although I say Ep. 26, not 23) but the journey is half the joy. I can't wait for them even though they will probably be short-changed as they were in Part 1.
Is Jin Mu creating "new" soul shifters? My impression is that there are no more Soul Ejectors available (but I might be wrong - it was very confusing). If fans like you and me are confused about where this is heading then that speaks volumes about Hong Sisters changing the ice stone/Hwansu rules as they wish.
Thank goodness 💕💕 for Cho-yeon and Dang-gu. They will have a happy ending and that's all I need to watch Part 2. 😊
Thanks for posting. This preview finally focuses on the ice stone story. Naksu killed "innocent" victims of soul shifters. Did Jang Uk do the same? Because his power is uncontrollable?
I think Jin Mu will probably use Yul’s uncle as well. Perhaps try to entice him to control Songrim as Songrim…
Well, it's not like she is really going to marry the creepy uncle. Cho-yeon and Dang-gu will be married by the end of Ep. 30 and she will be preggers with boy/girl twins. It is written and so it shall be. 🥰
I think Jin Mu will probably use Yul’s uncle as well. Perhaps try to entice him to control Songrim as Songrim…
I'm thinking that Jin Mu is going to try and marry off Yul's uncle (the actor is only 34 but looks much younger) to his niece Cho-yeon since she and Dang-gu are estranged. At one time he was pushing for the CP to marry Cho-yeon but neither wanted that!
YouTube Link (sad that Arin is missing but I'm sure she had schedule conflict - like maybe major photo shoot in…
I don't follow "celebrities" on IG but every once in awhile a link leads me there (see my post above re: Eun Hye's IG post w/Chodang) and I probably never will after it finished. But I love In-soo's interaction w/Arin - they are like brother/sister.
When I look at all the many tiny bits of info around the internet and add it all up - I've pretty much resigned myself to that the fact that tvN was NOT lying when they said JSM would not appear in Part 2. 😢 I will be happy if I am wrong.
Finally, some still cuts of the Crown Prince. Is it too much to ask for something - ANYTHING?? for the other couple in crisis - Cho-Yeon and Dang-gu????
Why what's wrong with me saying the greatest electrifying chemistry? This is my feeling not yours.
Finally found it! I wish I could fly to Korea and see JSM in her first stage play even if I wouldn't understand a word (after all, if one has seen the movie, one understands the words 😊😊)

Trying to find translation somewhere. . . anywhere for the voice-over of their miniscule scene.
Gentle Correction - they are ALL looking good. 🥰🥰🥰
