Jung so min will always be my favorite nasku, because she embodied everything in the character. She was a killer with vulnerability. Go Younjung showed what nasku would have been like if jin mu had never turn her into a killer. She had no hard side to her. She had no trust issues. She wanted to let jang UK in. I like them both for different reasons!

I just finished the 2 part series. I love love S1 and JSM as Naksu/Mudeok was very compelling and keeps you drawn to the series. She had better chemistry with the men pining for her. Her romantic scenes with Jang Uk had more substance. The ending was just gut wrenching. I understand the Naksu switch had to be the S2 story but it didn't give the same punch as S1 even with the awesome fighting and saving the world scenes. Naksu had more kissing scenes but I was missing JSM so much. GYJ played her character well but I wished Jang Uk somehow ended up with Mudeok instead. S2 felt flat for me. I couldn't even cry when Naksu's soul died so Mudeok/Jin Buyeon would come back. So it's good that S2 was short.

I watched the S2 especially to know the continuation of this fantastic epic. But during the 1O episodes I regretted Jung So Min and I got a little bored. Even if GYJ plays well, she does not have the playing power of Jin So Min who pops the screen in a more difficult and intense role than that of "princess" in Naksu S2. Lee Jae Wook’s talent is breathtaking in the S1. UK and Mudeok it is a dream, pure emotion. Faced with the immense talent of Jung So Min the emulation is obvious. All the actors are better in the S1. I don’t think the S2 would have achieved this success without her performance in the S1. We talk a lot about the beauty of GYJ but it is not enough to build a good story. JSM is also very beautiful and also charismatic.

Jung So Min absolutely was the character as Mudeok that I really had thought in the end , she’d come back in her Mudeok body and be with UK forever more! I had always believed UK fell in love with the combination of both in the first and second season! I liked the new Naksu, and I loved how she too had chemistry with Uk. But in my heart, even though the story line was amazing, I still expected our Mudeok would be back in the end! The scene that stole the show was the very thought that Uk , later Sol and lastly Park seemingly dying , it was very traumatic, and I totally cried each time! Making me the most distraught I have been in a while! Despite knowing it was just a movie! I never believed Mid-servant Kim was going to die, she after all was probably with better odds ! Those two lady’s were the back bone through out the two seasons!

Let’s all accept the fact that Jung Somin’s acting paved the way for AOS S2 - S1 started with a low rating until it trended in Netflix because of her great portrayal of the characters she played although sadly, she was replaced after making it a hit hence S2 received a higher rating thanks to her great acting that enticed the global audience to follow the story which could be even higher if she remained in S2 But, atleast she had a global hit movie: The Wolf which was recognised internationally 🎉 Way bigger than what AOS S2 achieved so yeah, she was a big 😊art of AOS success overall and that’s a fact🎉

Thank you! We all stayed entertained throughout S1 especially after the finale, I became impatient because I wanted to know how the mystery would unfold, so I anticipated S2 even after I heard JSM won’t be coming back. It pains me to see people only crediting season 2 cast for the success of the show. Part 1 did all the work and especially after the 3 months break in between seasons, (I watched part 1 after it was done airing) AOS gained more viewers, I literally put my friends on to watch this show because of how awesome Part 1 was.

I have nothing against either one of them. Love them both in fact. However, the script of part two and the way the story went didn't do GYJ justice at all. In part one, we saw JSM's character as a very smart, quick to response, very determined and has no hesitation to do whatever including poisoning Jang Uk and make use of people. When coupling with Jang Uk who was still an innocent young man at a time, it created this awesome dynamic duo that was so fun to watch. In part two, unfortunately, Uk turned into the greatest warrior so that took all the suspense out since nothing could possibly harm them. GYJ's character also turned into this uncertain person who the ultimate goal in life was to escape from her own house. The intensity, intelligent, the rush and whatever else that created magic in part one were all gone. GYJ had to play this I don't know nothing, I'm just looking for a husband kind of roll and that wasn't at all interesting. But like I said, this is not the actor's fault, it just the way the story went and I wish they could have done better.

As a fan of AOS i have high expectations of the story because of the best storyline with great actors. JSM showed the best portrayal of 3 characters and just suddenly in s2 fl changed it is expected that no matter how the fl in s2 is good in acting but in viewer’s pov it will never be the same because s1 fl established the best impression of her characters. Some of the dramas have high ratings in a very short time and there are also some dramas that stays and maintained the good and very satisfactory impressions in the hearts of the viewers. I’ve watched thousands of good kdramas but only a few that i can say are exceptional that i can rewatch thru time.

Mostly because Jang Uk was so overpowered he didn't have to do much to defeat his enemies.

im not a kdrama fan AT ALL but i happened to watch this series and got sooo invested. im honestly glad there wouldn't be a 3rd season anymore because the 2nd season was a hard pill to swallow already.

Jung so min is the who brought us back in season 2. She portraited her character so well and her chaotic duo and chemistry with lee jae wook was on another level. 2nd season destroyed all the plot and made the story mere boring love story. People prefer second season because of bold scenes and plastic surgery beauty of 2nd girl

This is so true :) I expected a great P2 which would made this drama epic but the whole plot and magic from P1 was obliterated !!! to the point that P2 feels like a poor fanfiction. The only thing P2 has is a strong promotion campaign with the key word "chemistry" and "lead actors as lovers in real life" premise. It has no story itself and the whole hype are cliffhangers revolving around the story will she remember/will he recognize her. They tried to compensate all that with bold kissing scenes ?! and a classic trope in kdramas.... P2 is just a huge failure.

One thing I still don't understand is how come Mudeok didn't have the ability to sense energy when she was in Buyeon's body, but Naksu had that ability in second season?

@Leilei487 Жыл бұрын

i think because at that time jin buyeon was still recovering, meaning she probably has lost her power from drowning, so she recovered using naksu’s soul. since naksu’s soul was powerful from the alchemy of soul. But in part 2 i guess both are dying and master lee can only save one soul using buyeon’s body as he thought buyeon’s soul is dead, but we later found out she wasn’t so she came back and did what she needs to do and leave the body again in the end..

The 9th episode was truly heartbreaking. The senior stars really put in quality acting as it made the episode emotional. The writer did a good job in putting a twist on the later episode that put justice tthe story. I thought it will either have an open ending or a sad one but they were able to pull a happy ending. It seena i wouldn't be able to move on yet with the Alchemy Of Souls so I will be watching it again. I am looking forward to this kind of kdramas and will be following Jae Wook and the other casts on their future projects. Kudos to all the casts and staff! 💞

They swapped out a leading lady, that always works out bad. It doesn't matter at all what the story line is. Further it was easy to tell from the second season's writing and convoluted plot they were trying to fix a dumb mistake. Also there appears to be a large social media campaign designed to try and make the producers, directors and writers from not looking foolish and IMHO it's doing just the opposite. They have foolishly painted themselves into a corner where there is no possibility that the original actress can come back for a season three in a staring roll. So, it's unlikely there will even be a season three. But the first season was great!

The change in the Naksu actress for season 2 was a shock but I like how they justified it. The actress was really good too. It just felt like a full circle for her character arc, reverting to her original form.

@Jaykrystopher 11 ай бұрын

If Naksu took over Jin Buyeon'a body because her energy is making the body alive, then, Jung Somin's face is the face of Jin Seolran since the soul of Jin Seolran is inside the body of (real) Jin Buyeon. Or was the body has the face of the real Jin Buyeon just that it was made alive because Jin Seolran was born from since inside mother Jin's womb.
