Alchemy of Souls (1 & 2), with its ML Lee Jae Wook & 2 awesome FLs, has single handedly reawakened my love for K-Dramas, even for C-Dramas. Iāve rewatched AOS1 & AOS2 about 4 times now in 2.5 weeks. How insane is that?!
Did you understand the fact whether Do Jun & Hyeon Woo have the same faces or not? I'm really confused rn. During…
Yeah, I had the exact same question. Honestly speaking, I feel like they looked different to others, but looked similar only for each other (Do Jun and Hyeon Woo). The reason Secretary Ha recognised him was perhaps because of the eyes (window of our soul) or the script writer just messed up in a major way leaving such a plot hole in the script. My understanding is that the novel ending is somewhat different (not too sure)
Iām very happy for him. I think itās well known that heās wanted kids for a very long time, so Iām happy that his wish is becoming true. Much happiness to the couple, may they have a healthy baby! ā¤ļø
Another drama, where kindness and gratitude literally changed the course of a countryās history but also that of our main CP, is of course The Story of Minglan.
If you havenāt watched it, please do. One of the best C-Period Dramas there is.
The drama was very good till ep 35, and then Yang Hua and Qin Shiāa relationship got weird. Suddenly they arenāt as honest and open with each otherā¦ thatās a bizarre twist
The acting of most of the cast was very good and enjoyable.
While Iām glad that the FL & ML can be together, the actual current setup of their relationship is rubbish. Theyāre always in different worlds, and he, a monarch, still doesnāt have a consort and heirs.
When she told Luna to look after their dad as she was leaving that world to go to the Kingdom of Corea, didnāt that mean that she was ready to leave her life in our universe behind? Why not stick to that decision?
In the new universe, she couldāve pretended to be some long lost twin or sth of her other self, and once she became Queen who would have the guts to question her DNA being absolutely identical to Lunaās? Smh.
She didnāt even have to completely leave her dad behind. They could show him the new world so heād be ascertained that his daughter is in a good place and then they could visit him every few weeks or something. When youāre married you tend to see your parents much less anyway, especially if you live in different countries. Itās not like she would have been leaving him for good.
Otherwise I liked the drama, the maths/physics used to explain the different rules and phenomena in the drama were actually fun to follow and they made sense (though not 100%).
The actor playing Baek Kyung (Lee Jae Wook) and the actress playing Eun Dan Oh (Kim Hye Yoon) hard carried this drama imo, especially the former. Their scenes where heavy feelings were needed, angst etc, were all really well executed and enjoyable. Baek Kyung became my fave despite his rubbish behaviour in the first half of the drama.
Haru actor (Rowoon) was okay, but at times it felt a bit forced and the character itself boring after the first 20 eps.
Kim Young Dae was good enough given how dull his character was (not his fault tbh) and he had little screen time in comparison. His lines were so repetitive, Iām surprised how he hadnāt gone crazy from saying same thing over and over. LOL
The drama was enjoyable enough, but I canāt say Iām super taken with it. I doubt Iāll watch it for a second time.
This drama will be a success only if the script is well written and sticks to the novel + solid acting. Thereās certainly potential for it to be one of the best dramas out there, but it could also be a major failure. Fingers crossed.
