Yul doesn't really know that the teen girl he liked became an assassin and the enemy of all the mage order. He…
I think he suspects something is wrong about that maid but he has not connected the dots yet. When he does, let's see how he manages from the teen he liked via the corpse he found the bird flute on and the maid who played that flute...
I don't care about Jang Uk becoming strong, just give back Naksu's power already like damn
Not yet. Or too many heads will fall and roll. The good thing about her situation now is that she can learn some modesty and patience. Not a bad thing for her.
Getting all these love vibes from Seo Yul until he betrays her because that is the right thing to do 😩.
He liked her when they were teens but I doubt he would like the real her. He probably does not know she became Nak Soo, the number one assassin of Daeho.
Solid ep3 with a story developing well, gradual but important details provided regarding the past events, leads' relationship fun and kindof weird between master/pupil, business agreement and flirting. I like the part with Yul. The guy is not only skilled (loved his two swords technique) but he is also perceptive. I don't mind the love triangle because I don't think Yul is or will be a nasty guy. Hope they just keep the competition fair. Waiting for tomorrow and ep 4!
Synopsis sounds like a typical chinese xuanhuan drama
The enery is the energy of nature or the universe that the mages can control and use. I have not seen so many chinese fantasy drama and maybe you are right this energy is used a lot in these but for me it is not a trademark. Elemental powers (not heavenly powers) are quite ordinary in Fantasy.
Synopsis sounds like a typical chinese xuanhuan drama
In the drama so far, they just say that the mages are able to master the energy which comes from the sky and then the lake. These people are mages who have this capability. Other humans do not have it. So in the drama, the families of mages form a caste to master and use the energy.
This concept is different from the chinese Qi where every human have it at a certain level and it can be used to channel enery for fighting, gaining powers... or being in good health or to cure people.
I agree there is a similarity because we talk about energy but they are from different nature as their origin, container and uses are different.
Synopsis sounds like a typical chinese xuanhuan drama
The concept of learning and improving under the guidance of a master is not something specific to the chinese. It exist in western culture and in fact everywhere a knowledge or skills have to be transmitted. What is specific regarding the chinese it that they include the qi in the process they call cultivation.
In this drama, there is a gate of energy to be unblock/blocked indepently of any acupoints. It is not cultivation like channeling this energy via kung fu skills or meditation to find an harmony etc.... And there is no points of accupuncture where this energy flows and I can block you or unblock you depending on where I hit. I would be super disappointed if I see this in the drama.
Synopsis sounds like a typical chinese xuanhuan drama
The similarities that you see are not constitutive and characterizing of the genre called xuanhuan. Asian characters walking and fighting with swords do not mean it is wuxia, xianxia, xuanhuan... What define these chinese genres are chinese elements that are not in this drama.
Also in cdrama, there are shamans, sorcerers, witches maybe... but not mages as like an order, a caste. It is only two eps and it does look promising with its own universe of mages and souls of living people who can jump from a body to another. I have never seen that before in a cdrama or kdrama. I woud be disappointed if it turns into some copy of cdrama xianxia or xuanhuan.
Synopsis sounds like a typical chinese xuanhuan drama
It sounds like but it is not. At least not so far. It's a korean historical fantasy drama. It does not have kung fu, five elements (metal, wood, water, fire and earth), chinese gods, powerful animal monsters like fox or tiger, chinese mythology, progression of rank etc... Things that Duoluo continent has for example and Alchemy of Souls doesn't have. It has its own universe and more western influences than chinese influences. Mages are typically from western fantasy.
So if Naksu body is gone does that mean MD soul also went with it - as in dead?
The fact that soul shifters can take control of a dead body (one without soul) and the fact that Jang Kang would not hesitate to kill a soul shifter without considering if there is one or two soul in the body, these suggest that the soul shifter does not cohabit with another soul. That's how I see it so far but we will know more in the coming eps.
