I feel like horror genre is way more than the jumpscares, this is a HORROR drama

I hope

It wasn't in caption, they dont add bgm info in caption

The pacifer by kim jin seok

Ost

The only reason alchemy of soul is loved is cause of actors and chemestry, cause the writing has 1000 of plot holes, they stretched those episodes, and cgi is so cartoonish but atleast it was consistent in season 1, but in season 2 it wasn't even consistent, and season 2 writing was worse

he is there for 80% of story, idk what he talking about

How many people want to bet, this will get a season 2 and become a global sensation? And how many want to bet this will be a flop?

They did not tell the whole Lore, season 2 maybe

It's trending in korea, but I'm not sure if it's getting any buzz international outside of kdrama circle

They did try to took care of that shaman, that labubu doll almost killed him

They left out things intentionally for season 2 (if netflix green lits it)

Back to back kdramas, code: faust game most probably coming in 2027, I hope next drama nmj chooses is tvn show or jtbc or any production team or Netflix original except disney+

Loved it when he went blind and had almighty eyes

You are from future

It sucks, disney+ is shit at marketing

Think of it as gambling, if it got popular, then season 2 will make more money for Netflix, also NETFLIX Is so much marketing for The East Palace, I hope it becomes a hit

I think the series deliberately leaves parts of its mythology unexplained, making them feel more like groundwork for a potential Season 2 than actual plot holes.

I think the series intentionally leaves parts of its mythology unexplained. Rather than plot holes this feels like setup for a potential S2.

The lore is intentionally left a bit ambiguous, but here is how i understood it

1. >!The Realm of Gwi isnt Hell. Its more like a spiritual limbo where souls consumed by resentment and vengeance become trapped instead of moving on.!< The East Palace sits on a place with strong yin energy, making it a gateway between the human world and this realm.

2. The giant creature (Primordial Gwimae) Gu cheon meets isnt necessarily the ruler of all ghosts but a primordial being that embodies overwhelming yin energy. In exchange for its power, Gu Cheon essentially offers his soul/freedom. Thats why the chain remains on his hand in the finale, the debt hasnt been fully paid leaving the door open for a S2.

3. The Saeng gang family simply inherits the ability to see and communicate with spirits through king's maternal bloodline. Drama never explains why they have this gift or where it originated.
