Title Alchemy of Souls Season 2: Light and Shadow
Me thinks kdrama should leave this kind of genre to the Chinese historical fantasy dramas because this felt rushed…
It's not the budget but the how the audience received these dramas. I enjoyed all these dramas and they had great storyline far much better than the usual Chinese Wuxia where people fall in love really quick without any reason whatsoever and where we have many Mary Sue characters who act cute all the time. Here in Kdrama world, we had great plots with great Fls. It's just that the audience dismissed these dramas way too quickly. forexemple, In Arthdal chronicles, people were hyped about because of Black Pink's Jisoo who wasn't even the female lead and people comparing it to Game of thrones yet the story had nothing to do with it. As for Alchemy of souls, people loved it. It had no problem with ratings and the story was pretty much completed. They tied the loose ends well. my issue was the characterisation of Naksu and Jang Uk plus their wardrobe.
