This is pretty much THE question to be resolved, isn't it?

I 💕💕Sang Ho with Yun-ok, but I have a feeling her story will be with the CP in Season 2.

Soy-i is rotten to the core. She saw what Jin Mu did to the two women who were on the boat with her and she knew what would happen to anyone else that she named - she certainly did not need to name the two guards! Heck, she put that little boy with the umbrella at risk. The actress is great - quite a change from the character she played in Business Proposal. But So-i must die for her sins.

Here on MDL we figured out things long ago. But I was just reading someone's post on the Reddit forum and they are just now realizing that Mu-deok is the missing daughter!

A week ago, someone else asked the question along the lines of: "who is Jin Bu-yeon? I've been focused on the romance and don't know why she's important"

Lesson for me is that most viewers (and there are millions) do not overthink this stuff - they need to be led by the hand. And the answer(s) better be easily understood or they might not return for Season 2. That could be the reason for the two-week hiatus.

Yes, I think that's where we are headed. Which is also why I believe JSM will return in Season 2. 😊

When I saw that, I went "WTF - are they going for some immaculate conception nonsense?"

2nd thought - NOT Jang Gang, please NOT Jang Gang.

I nominate Park Jin. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Episodes 19 and 20 will be epic.

This is how I look at it -- what is Jin Bu-yeon's plan??? Then certain things begin to make sense - to me, at least.

He's okay with it if done with Hwansu. And he remembered dancing at his 100 year old birthday. I think he understood all along.

I haven't had time to re-watch, so this was only an impression.

If accurate, what this really means is that Yul fears that Uk is going unknowingly save "Naksu - the Shadow Assassin" and unleash her on an unsuspecting world. 😊😊 He's trying to protect them both - but especially Uk. I really don't understand the whole "returning to Seoseong" and how it will lead up to the final episodes unless it means that Uk is gone when Jin Mu figures out that Mu-deok is really Jin Bu yeon???

The notice comes out Thursday/Friday regarding the Sunday release. Sunday release is usually 6:00 pm KST. There was no notice this week.

Now THAT was Hwansu on steroids!

If it is her original body, then she would be fine. Like Jang Kang - he returned to his original body.

Last year, they did a lot of filming in the summer before Jung So Min was able to participate. Looking at recent BTS scenes with Mu-deok, Yul and Uk - they were filming outside at night in very cold weather this past winter - and these were some of the earliest scenes in the show, aka the "breathing" scenes. It makes sense that they would try to do as much outdoor scenes as possible this summer.

My impression, Yul thinks that Uk knows that Mu-deok is a soul shifter but that Uk doesn't realize that it is NAKSU that is the soul shifter.

I've tried to re-write this several times to make sense. I'll try again.

Yul knows that Uk is protecting a soul-shifter that is in Mu-deok's body.
Yul thinks that HE is the only one that knows that Naksu is the soul-shifter.
Yul think that Uk is unaware that Naksu is residing in Mu-deok's body.

So-i must die.

Epic scene.

I'm a big JSM fan and I don't believe the delay has anything to do with whether she is returning or not. (Although, I do hope she is returning). Frankly, I think that once they finished writing Season 2 (which wasn't until after Season 1 filming was complete), they realized that there were some transition problems. It would be difficult to film new scenes (although not impossible), but would be easier to add some voice-over dialogue or a few more flashbacks so that the viewer understands what is happening. Although if they do a quick killing of So-i, I wouldn't be upset.🤣🤣

Two big hints: once a body is burnt, there's no way to recover it. The other big hint today is that it is possible to shift a soul into a frozen body. Master Lee was upset because he couldn't go back to his body once it was burned. Naksu's body was frozen.

I believe Jung So Min will return.
