Since Jung So Min will be playing JBY, I am confidant she will be the perfect partner for Jang Uk. 😊

Reminder - a soul CAN devour/absorb another soul.😊

I agree it is intricate and we don't know everything. In fact, we hardly know anything. I believe Jin Be-yeol is destined to be with Jang Uk and therefor I look for the evidence that points in that direction. As for the moment "Mu Deok" was in control, I think she saw the fight. I think she has subconsciously appeared on our screens far more often that we currently recognize. I think she has been keeping Natsu's soul alive because it helps Jang Uk - the man she is destined to be with. See how easy it is for me to justify anything as long as it points in the direction I want?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The FL's birth name is Jin Be-yeol. Her soul still exists. And I am not going to get into a MDL war over Naksu vs. Mu-deok vs JBY. I am on Team JBY because I believe she was destined from birth to be with Jang Uk. If I am wrong, I will admit it.

There are so many possibilities, but since I don't like Naksu and I want her gone, I want her road to redemption to be sacrificing whatever is left of her soul so that MY girl Jin Bu-yeol (aka"Mu-deok") can live. A bittersweet moment for Jang Uk, preferably no later than Ep. 10.😂😂😂

I'm on Team Jin Bu-yeol and I want Naksu GONE, but if this is the compromise, then I'll live with it. 😊

I think I saw a different preview than you did, lol because she's about to feed poor Jang Uk to that long-haired wolf Gil-ju. 😂😂

I simply started with #Alchemy of Souls and then after awhile probably his something for Jung So min and several different tweets showed up and one of them had your handle so I hit that one. You have an amazing collection of JSM photos. 😍

Haha, so funny when MD pushed JU on to a chair (or table?) so that she could see eye to him.

Do you have a twitter page dedicated to JSM? I don't visit twitter very often for Kdrama, but did so today and saw something with your handle.

My repetroire of kdramas is not large (maybe 30) and mostly rom coms or family intrigue (example: sky castle) but i cannot imagine anyone else in the role of Naksu in the body of Mu-deok in all her variations /accents and on top of that she will soon be in the role of mage Buyeon. Jung so min is Queen

He is Jin Mu's henchman; the one who didnt tell his boss about the lack of blue mark on the girl he killed.

I apologize-- totally misread your original question. If the soul ejector is a device (and now Gil-ju has it and he already betrayed his master once) then that seems to be different from the crystal balls that Jang Kang and Naksu conjured up. I think both of them thought they would be able to use their energy to conjure another soul shift w/out the device but the bodies were too weak and now As i am typing this out I'm suddenly hit with the question: WTF is "Naksu" going to do if Gil-ju's device falls in her hands.

Sominah - I'm surprised. You and I were first on the "Mu-deok is the eldest Jin daughter" train from the very beginning. Maybe they knew each other as children, but if they are around the same age, she disappeared when they were age 9-11. What I do know is that they were destined to be together from birth. At first I thought maybe there was a betrothed-at-cradle, but now I want to see Bu-yeon's star chart. I think it may have said something about her destiny with a "King" - which could be MISinterpreted to be the Crown Prince (because that's not going to happen) or the King Star son (obviously JU). Or perhaps it only hinted as Jang Uk - heir to the star agency. Either way, it would be a threat to Jin Mu.

I don't think they are planning to switch souls. They are planning for Jang Uk to "channel"/tranfer (?) some of his mage energy to Mu-Deok's body/Naksu's (?) soul. Of course, one little wrinkle is that there are two souls residing in that body and one of them is much weaker (Naksu) than the other.

Jang Uk and Jin Bu-yeon are destined to be together. Netflix isn't going to spend gazillions of dollars on an epic "fantasy romance" with an unhappy ending. They could kiss "Season 2" good-bye if they did something that stupid. My 10 star rating would go down to 1. I'm spending my time thinking up lots of how Jin Mu is going to come to a very painful and miserable end.

I think the lyrics are about Naksu - and she's not going to be around for all 20 episodes. She's been fading away ever since she tried to kill herself and Mu-deok's soul has been protecting her. Can't wait to say good-bye to her frankly since she's a tragic figure and I don't enjoy tragic figures. Mu Deok IS the Jin daughter.

I'm on Team Jin Bu-yeon.

Lightsabers (swords). The force (Energy from the Lake). The twisted fate birth (Luke and Leia) and their destinies, especially Luke. Palpatine/Voldemort/Jin Mu - same evil although I'm not sure if Jin Mu has the same mage-type power as the others.

I think it's generational. I see Star Wars as well, but younger fans see Hogwarts. Of course, go back far enough and you have fairy tales and Shakespeare.
