I can’t believe it, we’re already halfway through the fantasy drama that I personally feel like we already needed!! But although its ratings are going “good” so far, they do not reach the drama that it replaced “Our Blues» which by now had already reached 10% rating. Instead “Alchemy of Souls» It barely reached 6,958% in episode 10, its minimum was 5,204% in chapter 9. Of course the stories are different, but above all the cast!! That drama was plagued by actors with a long career and much loved by the Korean public, while here, the basically youthful cast is the one that carries the weight of the plot. By the way, it seems to me that the sisters Hong they have used their experience in the industry very well to develop this script without hitches or gaps and even, despite the number of characters, it feels like they are all necessary, they have also made an excellent dumbbell with the PD Park Joon Hwa.
This Post Contains SPOILERS!!
So far it seems to me a story that has managed to maintain suspense, action and intrigue, generally making good use of special effects, although the pace became, I think, slower after the first 2 chapters and with Except for 2 battles and Jang Wook’s preparation, there haven’t been many exciting fights. Of course, the alliance between Jang Wook and Mu Deok has been established to survive and find their true origin and destiny. But Mu Deok did not foresee that their alliance and loyalty could transform into something more than she can control and Jang Wook has grown enormously, proving that he just needed a little strength and a true teacher next to him to reveal his great power, the one that it can’t be hidden by any magician, also in my opinion, Jang Wook is earning the destiny he was born with and there will be nothing that can stop him. I find it very funny how the 4 most important young men in Daeho come together to protect a servant who they don’t even know why, but they are interested in taking care of her, despite her sharp tongue and her supposedly dirty appearance. They, who can aspire to the most beautiful women, feel satisfied when they can help someone helpless who, however, gives all of herself to achieve a goal, just as she has taught her student to do. Also of course, the newly formed love “triangle” between the magician Park Jin, the Grandmaster, and the maid Kim Do Ju is adorable. Another woman with a sharp tongue and strong loyalty, even the music that accompanies the encounters between Kim Do Ju and the Grandmaster makes me laugh so hard!! Could it be that the teacher can claim with someone the guarantee of the tea that he has been drinking? As for the origin of our main couple, there were great secrets on the subject, but little by little we have been released the necessary clues to deduce why these two should meet and why they can be so powerful. Which awakens in the public the affection and encouragement towards these quite charismatic characters by the way! In particular Lee Jae Wook you are doing a great job!! Jang Wook is warm, daring, loyal, brave, intelligent and open in his intentions and desires, as well as spoiled and capricious, but he knows who to be with! Jung So Min for her part, she also does an excellent job, she is being very expressive, you can see that she works hard because her character has to “perform” various heavy tasks in public, but in private and with her student, she is determined and even selfish, but I repeat, the relationship between these two heralds strong changes. There are those who suspect Mu Deok and her special relationship with her «master», can they be safe? As for the supporting characters, ah!! The romance between Park Dang Gu and Jin Cho Yeon is sweet, although I think he is the one who is more in love and I still have my suspicions about Jin Cho Yeon and the disappearance of his sister… For his part, the prince, Go Won is a somewhat cocky, but sweet and vain, after all he is a prince!! And he doesn’t know anything about the evil that put him in that position, I hope we don’t have to suffer from a confrontation with blood and betrayal where he participates, we still haven’t reached the part where those kinds of intrigues take hold. Lastly, Seo Yul is sweet, warm, kind, loyal, and honest. He still remembers her first love, but she certainly can’t remember him!! Still, I think Seo Yul will play a big role in Mu Deok and Jang Wook’s survival. Well, we’re still on board and now we even know that there will be a second season, at least with what we’ve seen so far, I think I can guess where the story will turn!! I hope they don’t take too long to bring it to us!!
